Use @bootstroot to eliminate unsightly bunching during these cold winter days
There’s nothing like a nice pair of boots in the winter. If you are the practical type, they keep your jeans from getting dirty & wet when it is raining or snowing. However, they also just look quite trendy with jeans on the inside of the boots. I will not deny that my biggest setback is that I am a perfectionist. No matter how skinny my jeans are, I can’t seem to keep my jeans from bunching when I try to wear boots & jeans together. If I am going to spend the day analyzing myself then I often don’t step out of my comfort zone. Introducing Boot Stroot… Description: Cuff, Wrap and Strap your way to no bulges and no bunching when you wear jeans with boots. Our revolutionary product allows you to quickly and easily cuff...

Read More@Timemine Planners: Organization is key! #blogher11
I don’t know about you, but life is chaotic right now! Between preparing for Blogher, return of school, and everyday living, I am exhausted. Last year, I did a review for Timemine. For those who don’t read the post (no offense…ughh time restraints), prior to Timemine I wrote notes on random papers. I lived in what I considered “organized chaos”. However, with Great Contradictions growing, I don’t have time for “organized chaos”. Corny or not, Timemine has changed my life. Yes, I have an app for my phone, but I love having an actual planner to write in & look at (comparable to why I prefer real books over kindle type books). To get a sneak peek at the newest planner from Timemine… (click on...

We are not one size fits all, so there is no need for our beauty needs to be either. I am almost down to the last 2 weeks of the 90 day beachbody program with RevAbs. I have been working hard and enjoy treating myself without food. Beauty products are a great way to enhance & encourage all our efforts. So, what is worthy of our efforts… Imagine a company that offers cruelty free, vegan, & raw ingredients. Then, combine that with the fact that the products are blended by hand in artisan-sized batches with a low-tech approach (absolutely no exposure to high heat, chemicals, or any other factors that might compromise the value and effectiveness of our creations). About Grateful Body “Following Mother Nature’s rules . . . Biologically...
Read More@alphahydrox Montagne Jeunesse Masques Review
I am nearing the end of my 90 day Beach body program (to see click here). There is more to being healthy than your physical appearance. I think that learning to pamper yourself for your victories can boost your state of mind rather than setting yourself back with food. Facials are a great way to relax & invigorate yourself. However, spending the time or money getting one done professional can be discouraging. The solution: Montagne Jeunesse! About “Do you find yourself stressed out? In need of some R and R? A little “me time” perhaps? A spa day without the price tag? We have the perfect solution…. a Montagne Juenesse Masque! Montagne Juenesse masques are like Paradise in a packet!
