Some of My Favorite Things: February

February is a short month because it only has 28 days, but all the snow we’ve had has made it seem so much longer!  I’ve been busy running around as usual – between everything going on at DASHA® Grand Central and Darren’s arm surgery, I’ve had my plate full at home and at work.  Still, I feel blessed to be able to wake up every morning and immerse myself in work I love.  Read below for some of my favorite things this February 2014!

FASHION – This winter has been relentless!  On snowy days, I’ve been rocking my Rolf Bleu hipster hat and alternating between my Adirondack Boot II (for the really wet, slushy miserable days) and those furry brown leather ones (for frostbite temperature days), both from Ugg.  We had a gorgeous, warm weekend, but the cold temps and snow are coming back.  Winter’s brutality forced me to choose warmth above all else – I can’t wait to return to my obsession with heels in full force come spring.  Right now, my daughter is busy playing dress up in them at home!

FOOD – In the Pollack household, we love fajitas!  They are fast, fun and easy to make, plus good for you, too!  We grill a protein – steak, chicken or shrimp on the stove at home, and eat them with cold vegetables as sides (instead of frying them in sauce or oil) and low fat shredded cheese with small flour tortillas.  Our kids loving using their hands to eat!  My mouth is now watering.

BEAUTY – Kiehl’s has been making beauty products since 1851.  Hello!  That’s a long time.  Check out the amazing Rosa Arctica Anti-Aging Eye Cream or the Midnight Recovery Concentrate (99.8% naturally derived and paraben-free oil) as part of your evening skincare routine before bed.  A little bit goes a long, long way.

CULTURE – The Olympics are over – time to get out from behind the TV…and head on over to the movie theater!  We are obsessed with Frozen in our household – a beautiful story with great music – the perfect family movie!  We can’t wait to see Idina Menzel sing live at the Oscars.

SELF – DASHA® is now on shopify!  We offer gift cards so you can encourage the people you love to enhance their well-being.  You can purchase gift cards in any amount, and use them toward massage, pilates or stress relief packages.  What are you waiting for?  They are the perfect gift for that hard-to-buy for individual on his or her birthday or special occasion.  Call us at 212-755-5500 to purchase!
