This is my last blog post as a 39-year old. 40 looms large this Saturday and I say, “Bring it on!” I’ve been blessed with a beautiful family and to be able to do what I love day in and day out with the wonderful DASHA® team and the people we’re able to help, so I can’t wait to see what the next decade has in store! I’m so glad and utterly grateful to be pulling out my sundresses and sandals for the summer, getting ready to send our daughter to performing arts day camp and our son off to Camp Pontiac, but I can’t let June come without sharing some of my favorite things to help you be your best self!
BEAUTY. I’m all about dialing back the beauty routine in summer. Hampton Sun makes the perfect SPF 8 sunscreen with built-in bronzer that smells delicious and heightens that natural color and glow while you’re out and about. And it’s great because it sprays on – you don’t have to rub it in!
FASHION. The summer jumpsuit is hot, sexy, and comfortable. Revolve makes so many to choose from in so many styles for every occasion! Gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous!
FOOD. My little girl is a huge chocolate lover and all about her chocolate addiction. Though I limit it as much as possible, no one knows better than me that sometimes you’ve gotta live a little. Recently, I surprised her after school and took her to Chocolate Works on the Upper West Side at 641 Amsterdam Avenue at 91st Street. Not only did she get to make her own chocolate bar and top it with sprinkles of her choice, but also she got to taste and test it as she prepared it! This place is perfect for wedding showers, baby showers, birthday, and corporate logo gifts!
COMMUNITY & CULTURE. I’m expanding this category to include community, since giving back is such a huge part of who I am and what DASHA® is. Next week on June 3rd I will be chaperoning Trevor Day School’s 4th grade trip to Cassidy’s Place, a full-service family program with an integrated Head Start program, day care, early intervention, preschool special education, family support, mental health and other related services. Cassidy’s Place is part of the Association to Benefit Children (ABC), a non-profit family agency committed to serving the homeless, formerly homeless, medically fragile, foster children, and generally needy families in East Harlem and surrounding areas of NYC. Association to Benefit Children (ABC) is dedicated to bringing joy and warmth to children and their families through compassionate, sustainable, comprehensive and integrated services, designed to permanently break the cycles of poverty, hunger, abuse, neglect, sickness and homelessness. Teaching children the importance of empathy and helping out your community is one of the most important things we can do! Click HERE to donate now. Every little bit helps!
