Have you noticed your social media feed, office, or local coffee shop filling up with women dressed in red today – International Women’s Day. A  movement encouraging women to wear red to show their solidarity with the movement “The day without woman”  normally International woman’s day is represented with color’s of White, green & purple. But red is taken over to call attention to what it would be like without woman for one day. Read more here.

International Women’s Day is a worldwide event that celebrates women’s achievements – from the political to the social – while calling for gender equality. It has been observed since the early 1900s and is now recognized each year on March 8. 

It is not affiliated with any one group, but brings together governments, women’s organizations, corporations and charities. The day is marked around the world with arts performances, talks, rallies, networking events, conferences and marches.

“A strong call to #PressforProgress.  A strong call to motivate and unite friends, colleagues and whole communities to think, act and be gender inclusive.” Read more Here

Trending Hash tags
#metoo  =The hashtag is in support of all women who have been sexually harassed by someone.
#timesup =Legal Defense Fund provides subsidized legal support to those who have experienced sexual harassment, assault, or abuse in the workplace. TIME’S UP.
#pressforprogress = A strong call to motivate and unite friends, colleagues and whole communities to think, act and be gender inclusive in the work place.
#adaywithoutawoman =The goal is to highlight the economic power and significance that women have in the US and global economies, while calling attention to the economic injustices women and gender nonconforming people continue to face.  We play an indispensable role in the daily functions of life in all of society, through paid & unpaid, seen & unseen labor.
#BeBoldForChange = IWD campaign theme to rally for equal pay, created by the USA woman’s hockey team.
 
To help make a difference it’s great to support Woman owned business and purchase products that give back to the cause. Slogan tee’s, Mugs and Journal’s are just a few of the items I have been seeing.  Here’s a few of my favorite’s
Brunette The Label 
Cutest tee’s and mugs
10 products to support Woman’s day
One of my favorite quotes to celebrate woman….
“A woman is like a tea bag, you never know how strong she is until she’s in hot water!” Eleanor Roosevelt 
20+ Powerful Quotes to celebrate woman Here
 
Take time today to thank the woman in your life and maybe grab some lunch to celebrate “girl power” with a girlfriend. I am excited to say I will be spending the day with one of my long time girlfriend’s Meagan and we have some fun things in store after my tv segment  Lunch, a Fashion show at Anthropologie and a night in Salt lake city.
It’s so important to have good girlfriends they make a great support team and even more important to spend some girl time with them…A little time away from your your family I believe makes you a better mom and wife. A little time for yourself is a much needed little break and what better way then with a good girlfriend! 
So I hope you take sometime out for yourself today (even if it’s a bath)! OX, D’Arcy

Happy Tuesday Beautiful’s,

Looks like we’re finally getting Winter in Utah! Just in time for me to share with you Winter boot’s that are trending for 2018 and a sneak peek at a couple of 2019’s trends.

I was lucky enough to work with Diamond Peak Mountain Sports in Eden to bring you this fun collection of 2018-2019 Winter snow boots by Sorel and The North Face. I love supporting local and small business they always have fun and unique items you won’t alway’s find at big box stores. The customer service and attention to detail at this fun Sport shop is amazing and is just one of the reasons this little shop is celebrating 25 years in business.

Winter snow boots have come along way over the years, not just functionable they’re fashionable too. Waterproof, lined to keep your feet warm but have style you can wear with any street outfit. Above you will find some of my favorite picks from 2018 and a couple from the 2019 collection.  Getting a peek at 2019 collection is a special treat as these are not in stores yet these are samples of what the shops are getting to see and order for their next Winter season.

Can I tell you I am loving the Joanie lace, A wedge snow boot perfect for a snowy night on the town! Who would every think this was a Sorel snow boot? I love the fashion and Functionality of this cute little boot. (I’ll be pre-ordering a pair!)

Every little girl will want the Shades of pink mini Joan of arch Sorel boot coming out next winter. I predict this little number will sell out fast when it hits the sales floor. 

 The Cozy Joan, Winter Fancy Lace, Woman’s Shellista and Thermoball are all a great mid Ankle snow boot perfect for after skiing, walking around in snowy weather yet can be perfect with jeans and a sweater on a chilly day. Waterproof and cozy warm you’re feet will love you. Gone are the days of Chunky unfashionable not to mention ugly Snow boots. (1989 white snow cats by Sorel comes to mind) I know I am showing my age. 

The Slimpack Riding Tall II Sorel boot is one of my favorite boots in Sorel’s line. Simple yet sleek! At first you don’t even realize this is a snow boot. It looks just like a chic riding boot! Slim & tall with cute 2 buckle back detail, this functional boot can be worn all winter long with any street outfit, yet can be dressed up for a date night out in the cold! Waterproof so it’s perfect for rain and sleet, this stylish boot isn’t just for the snow.

All of the 2018 boots are available at Diamond Peak NOW and 2019 are available for pre-order Click on link or call (801) 745-0101 ask for Lori she’ll help you out.

Today On Fox13 The place, I will be sharing more about these boots so make sure to watch at 1:00 mnt. time.  I will share the link later today in case you miss it!

Have a wonderful snowy day! OX, D’Arcy

This Chapter…. My Melanoma Cancer Journey Shari This Chapter…. 
My Melanoma Cancer Journey 

Sharing my journey this far…Today, is 3 week post surgery.
 
Being told you have cancer is a roller coaster of emotions…
This is a journey none of us think you’re going to head down.

You can choose so many different paths to let your brain and emotions go…

I choose to give it to God, and to ask for your prayers, along with following my heart.

I knew I needed to stay positive and trust the process.
(Did I have scary thoughts and some tears, YES, Yes I did) 
But, honesty it wasn’t long. 

Once I gave it over, and trusted him and the process, along with asking for your prayers. 

I was at complete peace. Thank you for all my prayer warriors, I know I got the results I did because of you and your prayers. 

I’ve been told, I am strong, a warrior and so brave for sharing my journey. 
Honestly, I truly don’t feel that way at all, I fell like it’s a process to share, to help others and to help it not feel as scary! 

I didn’t know what to expect,  didn’t know what having my face cut up, or knowing what any of the processes or procedures were (I would have loved to have known…)

If I was going through this and these emotions, so were others. 

My hope in sharing  the journey, would help others to know the importance of getting your skin checked. 
In knowing the processes, and knowing we can do scary things, and we can get through them.

They say it takes a village to raise kids, but it also takes a village & prayers to get through life.🙏🏻

Thank you for all your support, love, prayers, DMs and messages of support.
I couldn’t have done it without all of you🙏🏻

Tomorrow is my first laser🙏🏻💪🏻
I’ll share who that goes in stories tomorrow 😉

—Vlog— Surgery Day How I prepared the morning of —Vlog—
Surgery Day

How I prepared the morning of surgery to remove my 
Melanoma Cancer on my face…

A few things that helped me for the 4-6 hour surgery day.

-Started day with Warm lemon water 
-Prayers, Devotion and journaling. (This helps start your day off right and with strength and peace)🙏🏻
- My Doctor suggested having high protein (I made A high protein Smootie with High antioxidants & Vic C for healing

- Washed hair & styled as I wasn’t sure when I would get to take a shower & wash hair,due to Stitches & bandages on face.

- Essentials, ear buds to listen to a podcast or audio book, my lap top in case I wanted to watch a movie, ice water, a protein bar, lip gloss, a charger and a hair tie❤️

- Comfortable Clothing 

If you want more details on my Melanoma Journey 💪🏻I have two LIVES🎥 in feed SHARING the details the day before, on what to look for, what the difference is between skin cancer and melanoma, what mine looked like and  What procedure the surgeon is doing , as what we did prior to prep, and answering questions-labeled Part one in feed and I am wearing a denim top.
&
-The day after surgery- sharing how it went, results, how I felt, a peek at how far the stitches went, what care is, and next steps as well as answering a ton of questions I received in DMs.  That one you’ll see the bandage on my face😉

I am being very real and authentic with you in sharing this journey, to help spread awareness on the importance of having your skin checked by a dermatologist.🧑‍⚕️👩‍⚕️

While also showing how smoothing so small can take a lot of work to be removed, while also showing…. It will be ok, and you may feel scared and think you’ll never look the same, but you can be brave, trust the process and we’ll heal and look normal again:) It just takes time😉❤️💋💪🏻🙏🏻

Update: Today is 7 days after surgery and I had my stitches taken out yesterday! 
Now the real healing begins. 
I finally had a decent nights sleep, my face is swollen, I don’t look like Frankenstein anymore😉 and although the scar goes from my under eyelashes to my jaw, it looks better then I thought it would. It’s pretty flat and the Dr, who stitched me up did an amazing job. ❤️#melanoma
