This week has really been a whirlwind and I can't believe it's already October!
I am excited that it is sweater season this year. It's been a bumpy ride and as I see some of you in store what I miss most is giving you a big squeeze. My best replacement for that is to wrap you up in a nice, cozy sweater. It's my hug for the time being.                                                                                                                        
As a prairie girl I love sweaters. Even in my "warm blooded" state I crave the texture, style and feeling of a great knit. This week the question came up about turtlenecks... if you were a turtle would you just call it a neck? 
                              

The history behind the turtleneck is that English polo players first wore turtlenecks in the 1860s and originally called them polo necks. By the 1900's they were popular as a fashion item, as the Gibson girl look wore high, ruffled necked blouses. Their adoption by the middle-class fashion set in the 1920's made them a trend and I think the rest is history.                                                    

This season the turtleneck is a classic and stylish sweater to add to your Autumn 2020 repertoire. Don't worry if you don't wear them, we have many more sweaters to help you navigate the season with warmth and style.                         

Hugs, Kelly

It’s time for some SELF-LOVE, Ladies!

One of the most common stories I encounter within my coaching business, and in the walls of C’est Sera, is a general “unrest” about where we are emotionally, mentally and physically…. which seems to be directly related to the changes we are all experiencing courtesy of COVID. I think it’s time we talk about it!

Let’s get transparent with exactly WHY we struggle with self-love. It’s hard to get real with it without acknowledging some of the things that are trying to rob us of self-love! I’m going to talk about some of the TOP 5 I hear, but whatever yours are, fill in the blanks!

Making A Habit of Local

How to shop local in Edmonton

I love the Autumn. Warm days that spiral into cool nights. The tapestry of yellow and rust that tells me the Earth is getting ready for a Winter's rest. The moose are ambling through my acreage and they are absolutely stunning and a sign that Autumn is truly here. Animals in the wild instinctively get ready for the season's change. I think we need to do it as well.

In the spirit of change and not waiting for 2021 New Year's resolutions, I have been thinking of habits. Good habits and bad habits. My quick research says that it takes 21 days to make a habit and 90 days to make it a permanent lifestyle change.

It will be January 1, 2021 in 93 more sleeps. So I am committing to make the habit of shopping local. As much local  ...
