ICYMI: Being sick is so not chic!

If you’re like me, you have far too much to do to be side-lined by a cold or the flu. Being proactive is key to maintaining your health. As is often said, “an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure!” I get a flu shot every year (and have already received mine this year), but if you’re leery of vaccinations and/or prefer over-the counter remedies, here are a few tips and products that can help.
- Wash your hands, and keep them away from your eyes, nose and mouth! If you don’t have access to warm, soapy water, use an alcohol-based sanitizer. Purell is “America’s #1 Hand Sanitizer.” It contains ethyl alcohol and kills 99.99% of germs within 15 seconds. You can find it at grocery stores, pharmacies and your local big box store. I keep it in my purse, my car and on my kitchen counter.
- Do things that boost your immunity naturally. Eat plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables, and foods rich in protein. If you feel your immunity getting low, try Rainbow Light Counter Attack, a 100% natural defense-strengthening supplement, which contains zinc, berberine, Vitamin C and soothing natural oils. It’s fast-acting and stimulant free, and contains no gluten, sugar, soy or nuts. You can find it for about $13.99 for a 30-count bottle at rainbowlight.com.
- Get plenty of rest! When you’re worn out, you’re more likely to get sick. If your sleep cycle is off, try Take Shape for Life’s Melatonin ($28.95 for a 30-count bottle). Melatonin is a hormone that promotes healthy sleep and helps you wake up refreshed.
- If you do wind up under the weather, Cold-EEZE® Plus Natural Immune Support QuickMelts can help shorten the duration of your cold and boost your immunity. The QuickMelts dissolve without water and contain zinc, as well as soothing Rose Hips and Echinacea. And if you’re feverish/contagious, please do yourself (and the rest of us) a favor: stay in if you can help it!
Runny noses and hacking coughs are not fabulous…take care of yourselves this cold and flu season, darlings!
Xoxo, Alexis

Ask Alexis: Has your syle changed?
My sense of style has definitely “arrived.”
Q: Now that you’re off on a new adventure, has your style changed to accommodate your new lifestyle? – Inquiring Mind
A: Great question, IM! What I wear on a daily basis has changed, but my personal style hasn’t. I no longer have to dress up as regularly, and am mostly in casual clothes. I still love heels, but they aren’t practical – however, I haven’t embraced the Chacos and running shorts-trend I see on campus. I’ve been in dressier shorts and flat sandals, plus I have my crimson Keds. I still wear a lot of the blouses I was wearing before, just not so much with pencil skirts and cropped pants. As the weather cools off, I will be living in jeans, layering comfy sweaters and tops and rocking flat boots, as well as cute running shoes (my brother and sister-in-law gifted me J.Crew’s Nike Internationalist sneakers, which are perfect for a girl on the go!). I’m definitely getting to embrace more of my casual side, but I don’t really wear trendy items and that hasn’t changed. I’ve finally reached a place where I wear what I want and my look expresses who I am, and it’s an amazing feeling. – Alexis
