Monday Musings
October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. As a community of women, Alexandria Stylebook and our readers have undoubtedly been touched by breast cancer - either personally or through a friend or loved one. In typical Alexandria fashion, our community comes together each October to raise awareness and support those who have been diagnosed with (and survived!) breast cancer. Be sure to read Stylebook this Friday when we feature Alexandria's Dr. David Weintritt of the National Breast Center Foundation to learn how you can help the women right here in our community.
Elizabeth: Well, this is a sad Monday Musing for me; I have to let everyone know that this is our last Golden Goose shipment. It is a total bummer, but at least our final delivery is a really great one. We decided we needed to go out with a bang and pick ones that nobody has in their closet. It has been such a great run with Golden Goose, and we are sad to see them go. Maybe they will take us back one day, but for now, this is a fond goodbye. (Available at The Show Hive, $545-$655 as shown)
Adrien: Who out there doesn't want to feel super confident in their body? You've heard me say this before, but tons of cardio and cutting calories isn't the way to get there. So what's the answer? The women I've worked with who are crushing the perimenopause and menopause wellness game are hyper-aware that word choice is the beginning of impactful habit change. Move past "I'm too busy" and "I can't" by scheduling small, achievable wellness "wins" in your day. Check out my Menopause Blueprint for proven steps to transform your relationship with your body.

Amy: Hello, autumn! One of our favorite fall finds from last year is this gorgeous little tabletop fireplace, the FLÎKR. It is the ultimate accent/ambiance piece. Safe, sturdy, peaceful, and completely mesmerizing. Wind down watching the flames dance or roast some marshmallows without leaving the couch. A little bit of magic wherever you'd like! (Available at Red Barn Mercantile, $99)
Britt: If you've been following our Monday Musings for a while, you've noticed that family time has become more important than ever for our new trio. My husband Geoff, our baby Georgie, and I have loved finding new activities to do together. Recently, we took a trip out to Rock Hill Orchards to give Georgie her first apple picking experience! Although she was asleep for most of it, I think she had a great time! We were joined by our extended family and friends for our fun day out.
