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

Denim on Denim but CHIC, NOT Boring OVER 50✔️ Lov Denim on Denim but CHIC, NOT Boring OVER 50✔️

Love the denim on denim “Canada tuxedo” look, perfect and chic when you don’t know what to wear✔️

Always chic- and never boring when you add Fab & Fun accessories…
-Denim slide sandals with some bling
-Mixing bling and turquoise Jewelry adds interest, and bring on those layers!
-A touch of Texture with a straw bag

-The Meg wide leg jean is one of my favorite pairs of jeans, cute year round…

Wear in the summer and spring with sandals, date night with a heel

-Denim jacket is my all time favorite denim jacket, not boxy, slightly tappers in, hits at the right spot and  comes in several washes ( I own all) 

-Nothing Better than a great Denim shirt, a piece you’ll wear on repeat year round!

Storage Healthy choice NO MORE PLASTICS… We made Storage Healthy choice 
NO MORE PLASTICS…

We made the change last year to remove all plastic in our lifestyle..

One of the changes we made for bread & cheese along with sandwich’s is to use beeswax wraps and beeswax and linen storage bags..

Safe, reusable, non toxic,, locks in freshness, ease to clean, freezer safe and reuse & recycled 

Highly recommend

What DRESSES I am wearing as a 54 year old, this S What DRESSES I am wearing as a 54 year old, this Spring & Summer…

A little something for everyone…10 dresses & Styling ideas

-Ruffles & Bows
-Show a little leg
-Calf & Maxi length for those who don’t 
-Casual- Everyday-Workwear and -Travel
-Color- Neutrals and Print

A few style TIPs and the BIGGEST style mistake….

Just putting on the dress and not accessorizing …. Take NOTE of every look… Shoes, Bag, Jewlery and finishing accessories ✔️✔️✔️

Accessorizing can make or break your look… Styling doesn’t have to be hard or over the top… but it is something you don’t want to skip…

Changing your bag takes 3 minutes, picking a shoe can be an issue for some. Tip: pick a neutral sandal or heel, 1 good neutral sandal & Bag can work for all these looks. (I’ve linked several over on my blog and in stories) 

- A great gold or silver stack of bracelets, a favorite necklace and earrings will work if you are a minimalist..

If you’re a Maximalists like me😉 you’ll have a collection for every season, every “vibe” and several choices to change the looks….

You can be classic and chic, simple and elegant, boho and layered…. Just DON’T skip accessorizing😉
