Monday Musings
Who doesn’t love a deal? This week is all about saving big, without compromise, as our town prepares to host the biggest shopping event of the year, Alexandria’s Walkable Warehouse Sale! It’s a good thing you bought a pair of chunky boots or lugged sole loafers, because this is the perfect day to wear them out, rock your style, and log some miles! And, if you are late to embracing one of our favorite footwear trends this season, perhaps you’ll nab a lucky pair this weekend (we won’t judge if you wear them out of the store, promise.) Stay tuned later this week for exclusive sale sneak peeks from our contributors! In the meantime, check out our Monday Musings…
Adrien: Pushing ourselves excessively, emotionally and physically, will increase our cortisol and can lead us to behaviors like sugar-dependence, over-reactivity, becoming more prone to injury and being more susceptible to serious illnesses. Stress resilience is a key foundational tool for my clients, because it impacts the quality of their entire life! Stress takes a major toll on our body, and, if it's left unchecked, can negatively impact our wellness goals. Developing solid stress-resilience habits will lower your cortisol levels and increase your wellness entirely.
Elizabeth: We will call this Monday Musings the “Why Is This Left Edition,” because when I tag items for the Warehouse Sale, I can’t understand how some things are still here. I purchased these myself and paid more than what they are marked at now. There are some really great deals on some really beautiful items. Trust me, I picked them for the stores (and for myself): Stripy Minky Fur Slipper, was $228, now $75; Cashmere Chocolate Knit Sweater, was $975, now $300; Western Indigo Stretch Denim Shirt, was $225, now $75; Purple Chain Loafer, was $695, now $250.
Amy: Do not miss this wonderful deal Penny Post is offering on custom Crane stationery! For a limited time, get 50 pieces of stationery starting at $99. Choose from handpicked, best-selling styles with curated choices of paper color, inks, and motifs. Great for a little self-love or ideal for gifting. Pick your paper, pick your style, pick your ink color, and voila! A perfectly personalized stationery set. Schedule an appointment to look through your options!
Britt: Once again, my jaw has dropped over a home's custom and quality features! I am so inspired by our newest listing at 1120 Cedar Dale Lane in the Wellington neighborhood of Alexandria. Walking in, I'm blown away by its luxurious design while also providing such a sense of comfort and feeling of home. See why I'm obsessed here!
