Make.My.Monday with Dubarry of Ireland

For today’s Make.My.Monday, I thought I would share one of most loved Christmas gifts this year (from my little sister, Megan Elizabeth).

Dubarry of Ireland has the most adorable fur and fleece boot liners to keep you warm this winter. Plus, they’re Irish and I might be a little bias about that but they do fit perfectly in a pair of Hunter Boots. AND with the majority of the country feeling like the Arctic, it’s the perfect time to purchase your own pair.

Dubarry also has some of the cutest and warmest winter/fur accessories.

Fur Snood, anyone?

New Years Resolution Giveaway

Happy New Year!!

I hope that everyone had a fabulous evening “toasting” the night away and counting down until midnight. I don’t know about you but I cannot believe it’s already the start of a brand new year!

Well, to kick off 2014, I have partnered up with Coupons.com, and some of my favorite bloggers (see below), to help you kickstart your own new years resolution with a $500 gift card to Amazon!

This year, I have made a few resolutions for myself…

1. Text less, Call more. How many texting “conversations” could be shortened immensely just by picking up the phone?

2. Pay it forward every day. The more small acts of kindness, the better! Strangers, coworkers, new friends – they all deserve a little more kindness even if it’s anonymous.

3.  Step out of my comfort zone. We all get stuck in our own daily routines, weekend spots and the like. Well, I have made a promise to switch it up a bit in 2014! Besides, life gets too boring if you don’t, right?

4. Cook new Gluten Free recipes. I stopped eating gluten in 2012 and while this has changed my life for the better, it’s so easy to get stuck in a rut and eat the same things over and over when you have an allergy. I mean, a girl can only have so much quinoa, corn tacos and salad..so this year, I have made a promise to try new recipes! (I’ll be sure to document and share those here.)

What about you? What’s on your new years resolution list this year? How would you use this $500 giftcard?
