Welcome to the fourth edition of celebrating Monday! Geeze, I’m still a newbie when it comes to liking Mondays. A hard won battle I can assure you. As a recovering weekend warrior it’s no small change that I now like Monday. How could you do such a thing!? you may ask…
Well, once I realized that the beginning of the week left me with five days and 120 new hours of possibilities, my tune began to change. Therefore, here are some things that should be on your radar, one for every day of the week!
#1) Ivory Ella
If you love elephants but hate the exploitation and abuse of them, then consider showing your support of this company. Not only do they donate 10% of their profits to help save the elephants(most give 1%) but they do it in style. Check them out here and consider donning a shirt to spread the message! Not only that, but how cute would a tee be for the gym?
#2)Choccywoccydodah
Since I love British culture and chocolate, and even better when they’re combined! Not to mention, with a funny name to boot. This shop has made a name for itself in the chocolate world and with celebreties alike. They are one of the few places that turn cocoa beans(chocolate) into art. Just check out some of their creations and shop here.
#3)TCHO Mokaccino chocolate
Speaking of beans, this one combines both chocolate and coffee! All wrapped up in a cute package.
beans(coffee that is) all in a pretty wrapping. With this bar, you can have a pretty capuccino whenever you want. The Easter bunny was kind enough to bring me one of these.All the more reason to love cute bunnies .
#4) Juice Beauty
Many know of Gwyneth Paltrow from movies and Her ventures into health, food, and beauty, but must it come at celebrity prices? Rather then purchase Her skincare from Her hailed site Goop, try going to the affordable source instead. Her other line Juice Beauty manufactures the products for Goop as well, but at much higher prices. Therefore, it’s probably a good idea to buy the products under the Juice Beauty name instead. Your pocketbook(and bank account) will thank you, and so will your skin.
#5) Heads Up by Ellen
I love Ellen Degeneres, how could you not!? Among Her many talents She also comes up with fun games. This one you can download to your smartphone for 99 cents, and it’s worth every penny. Think of it as charades gone mobile. It’s a fun party game or even just for two people that are bored on a weekday. Not only that, but with its fast game play you could do it on your lunch break, with a fun co-worker.
#6) The Pixies!

It’s time to give credit where credit is due. I have heard this band in the background of so many advertisements that the hipster in me is slightly annoyed. So, if your digging a song you heard on an American television advert, this is likely the band your ears took a liking to. I have also seen a play built around the music of this group, so needless to say they can carry more then just a tune! Therefore, perhaps you’d like to give them a listen?
#7) fab.com
I have found some of the coolest items on this site. Hello, bluetooth shower speaker and David Bowie umbrella! They not only work with some pretty amazing designers but also have some on point customer service(trust me I would know) in all my online shopping they’ve been a favorite. Check them out here.
Last but not least, cheers! A roasted blueberry basil margarita. Get the recipe here.
Love and possibility,
