Every Mom Needs Her Time
Every mommy needs her time!, I am a true and firm believer, ladies being a mom is the best in the world! however many of us once we become mothers, we forget about what it is to have time for your self to unwind. We all need time to enjoy ourselves, being a mommies brings tons of joy, but a fun day out with your family or friends has no price, this is like re-charging your batteries and being just you and not the worried mommy. I truly believe that all mothers should take time to enjoy and just be you!
Below are some pictures of some fabulous mothers who took a night out to have dinner and drinks. This was an awesome night, fun, girl chatting and picture taking, you should all put it to the test and you will see that 2 hours or 3 is enough time to re-charge... now get dress look pretty and go have some great laughs.

Griselle's Beauty Tip Of The Day
You know when you have one of those days, when you just feel like being home and doing absolutely nothing! Well here is something fun to do, aside from just lounging around your house! I'am all about doing some much needed at home pampering.
Here is a recipe for a home-made facial scrub that I do at least once a week. A lot of people ask me what do I do to keep my skin so clear and soft, well here is what I do.
The recipe calls for 3 ingredients and leaves my skin feeling nice and moist. This scrub is perfect for the cold winter months when your skin is feeling dry and dehydrated.
Here's the recipe:
Ingredients:
1 teaspoon sugar
2 cup full of honey
1 cup full of oatmeal.
Preparation: In a small bowl, combine all 3 sugar, oatmeal and honey.
with your spoon move it around and mix together. As seen in picture above.
Application: Using your fingers, gently scrub your face all over, honestly I even apply it underneath my eyes for dark circles. Rinse off with warm water after 10 min.
This is not the most flattering picture but this is so you can have an idea of how to apply. The results are great!
You can use this scrub in the shower. (I chose to use it in the shower since it can get kinda messy with the honey). *Be sure you are not allergic to any of these ingredients before using. Also before using on your face, dab a small amount on your wrist to check for any adverse reactions*
I hope this leaves your face feeling as beautiful and glowing as it should, I know mine does.

What I am Loving Today
I am obsessing about these fashion trends. I have been going crazy lately with capes, coats, and large sweaters, I am loving this winter trend. What I like most about this Fall/Winter season is that any color basically goes, i.e. Camel, and even red, we have short waist leather to red coats, one can really go insane with shopping.
The Camel Coat
Red Coats
I love red on winter coats. There’s nothing like a bright splash of colour on a dull winter day to make you feel that little bit more cheerful.
The Camel Coat
Camel coats provide an uptown classic which are both timeless and age-defying. Having first emerged on last fall’s runways, camel coats for this season come in every possible permutation and tone (from buff, caramel and cognac to toffee, taupe and nutmeg.) Find bold new cuts from wraparound and oversized mannish shapes to ankle-grazing and hooded. Cinch in a camel coat with a slim tonal tan belt for some extra glamor. Be careful to choose a shade that flatters your skintone.
Red Coats
I love red on winter coats. There’s nothing like a bright splash of colour on a dull winter day to make you feel that little bit more cheerful.
The Cape
The cape provides one of the most distinctive and practical wardrobe pieces for Fall/Winter 2010. On-trend, cozy and comfortable, capes come in all shapes, sizes and cuts and look stylish no matter whether a woman is 20 or 60. From hooded, fur-embellished, military-style to floor-sweeping, designers embraced the cape as one of fall’s biggest fashion stories. However, balance out the look by keeping a lean silhouette underneath.
Leather Jackets
Have you noticed, the leather jacket has gotten sexier and more versatile? A good leather jacket should be able to be worn with anything from a grungy pair of jeans to a cocktail dress.
Fuax Fur
This season, I have been seeing faux fur everywhere: coats, hats, vests. I think it's fun to add a little soft-to-the-touch, cozy element to any fall/winter outfit. But please don't overdo it. Nobody wants to see a real-life animal walking through the office. To achieve an elegant and appropriate look, try using only one faux fur piece that compliments an, otherwise, plain outfit.
