Monday Musings
Today's musings are filled with joy. They are a celebration of that which makes us happy. Isn't that what it's all about? Finding joy, whether from a favorite pair of joggers, delicious olive oils in the kitchen, or a wellness journey - finding happiness in the everyday is infectious. And we are especially happy for Stylebook contributor Maura Burchette of Monday's Child. Maura was recognized by the Alexandria Chamber of Commerce's Class of 2022 40 Under 40. A shining light in our community, Maura brings joy wherever she goes!
Elizabeth: Everyone knows how much I love Tibi pants. If I am not in workout clothes, you will find me in Tibi pull-on joggers. I have them in every fabric and every color. This fall, they have introduced my new pant obsession - the active knit jogger and the wide-leg pull-on pant. I am officially obsessed and will have to apologize to all my pull-on joggers because they might not see the light of day as much as they used to. These pants are so flattering and so comfortable that you will never want to not be wearing them. (Available at The Hive, $425-$445)
Amy: Please raise a glass and a warm baguette to this lovely line of olive oils. Tasty, authentic (without fillers or artificial preservatives), and never overprocessed. Plus, the bottles are so beautiful! (Available at Red Barn Mercantile, $40-$44)
Adrien: In my blog this week, I share my client Darlene's journey to prioritize herself, her wellness, and her happiness. We all crave that feeling of belonging and experiencing real connection with others. Yet too often, we aim to achieve this by putting others first, adapting our schedules to their needs, and feeling selfish if we prioritize our own self-care. Check out Darlene's story to learn how this Maya Angelou quote helps to remind her that a crucial step to belonging is self-love.
Britt: Last week, we celebrated 40 individuals who have made a positive impact on our thriving Alexandria community as sponsors of The Alexandria Chamber of Commerce's 40 Under 40 Event. It was a celebration of the most important thing that makes Alexandria great: its people. I encourage you to learn more about the inspiring 2022 honoree class here!
