Dear D'Arcy

By D'Arcy Vandenberg


Saturday Style Spring trends (series part 4)

It’s Saturday! I hope you have fun plans for the weekend!  

If you’ve been following along….You know a couple Saturdays back I did a Post about My top 15 Spring trends and that I was going to break them down for the month of March.  Here is My part 3….. Statement earrings and Slogan/saying tee’s (boyfriend jeans are a big trend but I focused on those already!)  Enjoy OX

I have been collecting statement earring since High school so I am always happy when they make they’re way back in style…. Some of these are vintage and some from Zenzii or Jcrew and Anthropologie but no longer available… Here is the link to All 3 which have great selections!

Zenzii   Jcrew  Anthropologie

 

I love this earring it came in my Monthly Rocksbox, Have you heard of Rocksbox? It’s a fun Jewelry box that comes every month for $25 and you get 3 different pieces to Barrow until you want to send it back for another set in a pre-paid envelope! I like it because you can try out different style and trends without the commitment! Want to try it? Here is a FREE complimentary month code DARCYBFF18

 

 

I love Slogan/saying tee’s! Super fun and perfect for the weekend with boyfriend jeans or shorts in the summer! Relaxed and fun you have such a wide rang to choose from as almost every company has a cute slogan or fun saying to choose from! Mine is from my favorite Dry bar blow out salon my girlfriend gave me knowing I am addicted!  That’s another thing about Slogan/saying tee’s… It show the personality of the person wearing it! Most are affordable so if you don’t have any add some to your wardrobe!  You can even dress these tee’s up with a blazer, slacks or pencil skirt!  they’re made to have fun with your outfit’s!

➡️Slide through  slides ➡️
To view process ⚠️SLIDE 6 is crazy

 12 weeks  after my First (Scar revision treatment) laser treatment round 3 CO2 doing Excel V Laser treatment.

🚨Scar revision 
C02 2 kinds of laser
Deep core - (first 2 treatments)
Or EXcel V - (3rd treatment)
*Excel V - redness & topical
*Deca- core & topical 

I was diagnosed in December, Surgery in January and my first laser in February.

I’ve been sharing this Journey in hopes to help encourage you to make a skin check up appointment. 

Melanoma Cancer is deadly and very different from Skin Cancer.

Melanoma cancer is deadly,  early detection is key, before it can spread to lymph nodes, organs, &  blood. 

If your new here or just seeing this post, I have 6 other parts with all the info and my Journey to date in Feed and stores saved to highlights with more info.

Thank you for all the kind messages, comments and prayers! I appreciate you being apart of my tribe.

Thank you and NOW make your Skin Appointment! 

I am happy to answer any questions in Dm

What I DIDN’T do to prepare for…Midlife🌸💕 I Didn’t What I DIDN’T do to prepare for…Midlife🌸💕
I Didn’t Worry about it…

Really, why worry about aging… instead YOU can prepare for it!

Knowledge is power, and Midlife now is completely different than how our mothers and grandmothers dealt with it. 

We have more information, conversation, products and help on the topic than generations before.

What you can do to Prepare for Menopause/aging….

-Eat well, 

-Exercise 

-Get outside and get real vitamin D 

- Drink lots of water

-Take supplements that will help the processes

- Ask questions

-Go to a Hormonal Doctor

-Share what works for you with Friends💕

- Get more Protein and Fiber

- Get sleep (it’s hard but figure out what works for you)

💕These are just a few things that can help! (I am not a Doctor) just sharing things I have found that really make a difference.

I am all about A Granny Summer… This COCO has bee I am all about A Granny Summer…

This COCO has been gardening what feels like my whole life, my mom loved gardening and her English gardens were beautiful, her tomatoes and herbs always yummy;) she taught me what each flower & veggies types were and how to grow & care for them etc. 

She would teach our boys “how to smell”  not really, but she would walk them around had have them smell each flower and how they smelt differently.. they’re puffing noses were so cute❤️

Gardening has always been apart of my life , every home, it was fun to rebuild and create… Try new things, depending on the land etc. it’s hard work, yet relaxing and so rewarding…. 

Over the years, I taught myself how to seed my flowers and veggies, what I could dry and harvest, how to can, what I liked to bake with, and  what freezes well. 

I would teach our boys, have them help pick apples and berries, take them to garden shops and have them pick favorites and let them plant, they would dig and help pull weeds… 

Gardening isn’t just for Grannies… it’s a hobby or career you can pick up at any age, but I have to say,  I can’t wait to take our NEW Grandson out to the gardens and learn, dig and plant…. He’s only 6 months and we already know he loves nature, and he loves plants.. he’s at peace in nature and loves to touch all the different plants and trees… he  loves the leaves slightly blowing in the breeze…. He’ll just stare, It’s so cute! 

With age, I do enjoy it more, as I enjoy the slower moments and the time gardening takes…

How about you? How do you feel about gardening?🌱🪴🌻🫛🪏🏡🧑‍🌾🫜⛲️
