With the first month of 2015 almost completed,do you find yourself sticking to your resolution?

Do you even remember what you would do to make this year better than last year?

Citizen Watch would like you to stay on top of your goals this year with their fabulous collection of watches that will keep you on time and on the go.

I recently visited Citizen Watch brand’s global flagship store in Times Square, New York City. Located at 1500 Broadway, this is the first Citizen Watch global retail concept store in North America. The 1,300 square foot store will feature a full range of watches from Citizen Eco-Drive, DRIVE from Citizen Eco-Drive, and the Citizen Signature Collections.

While at the event I was able to learn about quick exercises that can be done anywhere on the go,  beauty tips to brighten up your eyes, the best ways to accessorize with a scarf  and how to add healthy foods into your diet. And of course we learned about their collection of watches.

Celebrity Trainer Scott Hamilton is a top tier expert whose background includes one-on-one fitness at Equinox, Tracy Anderson and leading New York locations. Scott was able to show us some quick stretches and exercises to keep us in shape in no time.  By using items that you might have around the house such as a towel or scarf you can perform these by adding basic lunges into your routine.  20150114_105524

For those of us who sit at a computer most of the day it is important to do some back stretches.

Christian Zamora is an expert stylist whose work has been seen on the pages of WWD and Vogue. His client list reads like a Who’s Who from the world of movies, music, and TV.  Christian was able to show us some techniques to brighten up your eyes with 5 steps, filling in your brows, mascara for your lashes, contouring, highlighting and adding color to you eyelids.

Lynn Roberts, VP of Communications at The Echo Design Group, handles Public Relations and Communications efforts for the 90+ year old brand. Lynn was born into the business as her grandparents started Echo on their wedding day in 1923. Lynn is the third generation to work for the family business. She got her start in
fashion by working at Harper’s Bazaar and soon after joined Echo. She has been in the fashion industry for many years and brings her expertise and fresh ideas to the fashion accessories and home design company.

Scarves are the easiest way to dress up a look by just changing up the way you wear the scarf you can have never ending looks. From wearing it as a headband, arm decor and the ever popluar loop scarves you will be stylish and looking fabulous in no time.  Visit Echo design for more stylish looks that you can try on for yourself. DSC_1091 DSC_1093

Breakfast is such an important meal, it fuels your day. Try Qia it’s not your grandmothers oatmeal. Don’t forget about keeping snacks on hand. Kind Snacks are great to have for those who are on the go and need that boost of energy.  Check out Mary’s Gone Crackers for those looking for conscious eating choices.
DSC_1104
DSC_1122Ellen Seckler, the VP of marketing for Citizen watch was on hand to provide demos of the watches and teach us all about some unique features that several styles had to offer.  I was able to learn straight from the source about Eco-Drive technology.

Did you know that not one of Citizen watches has a battery? They are all powered by light.

Citizen Eco-Drive technology harnesses the power of light – from any natural or artificial light source – and converts it into energy which is stored in a permanently rechargeable lithium-ion cell. It recharges continuously in any kind of light to run forever.

I was able to see how the World Time watch works. With the push of a button choose your current time zone and the watch automatically sets itself no more trying to figure out how many hours ahead or behind you are.  This is an extraordinary watch for any traveler.

DSC_1131

Below are 2 of my favorite watches that were showcased during the event. The Sunrise and the World Time A-T Watch are both beautiful and unique in their own way.

So happy to kick off the holiday season with @macy So happy to kick off the holiday season with @macys and Santa! Last night, we took the train into the city to preview #Macys #Santaland I have to say it was quite magical. Although my youngest was 12, Santa was able to connect to her and put us all in the holiday spirit. 

I believe. I believe….

My mom also came with us. We started talking and I think it was almost 40 years ago that she took us to visit Santa at Macys. I was so happy to visit Santa with her and my youngest for a three generation experience.

Don’t forget to check out the beautiful window displays as you enjoy all of #NYC during the holidays!

#ad Mental health isn’t talked about enough, but #ad Mental health isn’t talked about enough, but 1 in 5 adults suffer from mental illness and disorders today. 

Let’s reduce the stigma by opening up the conversation in the classroom and at home.
As a teacher and a mom of 3, I know how important it is to be there and be a good listener.

Conversations are super important. It’s never too early (or too late) to have these conversations with your students or your own children.

Operation Conversation is a check-in on kids’ mental health. When we start simple habits of conversations, we can learn about concerns or problems our students are dealing with, help them problem solve, and build their confidence for life’s difficult moments. 

Teachers can help to destigmatize mental health starting in their own classrooms by talking to their students about mental health using a free deck of conversation starter cards. Parents can also use these cards to support good conversations while at home. I know as a mom, I can use all the help I can get. 

#Giveaway Alert! 
I have 5 decks of Conversation Starter Decks of cards to give away to 5 lucky winners to help you get the conversation flowing! 

To enter:
1. Comment on this post as to why you would love the conversation starter deck of cards. 
 2. Follow @OnOurSleevesOfficial
3. Follow me @SavvyMomNY  I will pick the winners after 10pm on 11/22

Took a little trip upstate 💚 Visiting my oldest Took a little trip upstate 💚 Visiting my oldest and touring her sister on first college visit. Maybe it’s a sign that they should be together. Totally bittersweet and we went to visit Binghamton in October 2019 and only made it to two more before March 2020. I’m only thinking of bright skies ahead for the both of them filled with amazing memories and wonderful opportunities 💚

New York state has so many wonderful places to be New York state has so many wonderful places to be a part of . From the bright lights of NYC, to quiet places of respite in its parks and wooded areas. Time to walk, hike and reflect. Being active and busy is something that I hope my teens learn from and something we can do together to enjoy all the beauty and nature it has to offer while keeping NY tobacco free. Did you know that our oldest generation of smokers are now dying? After them, you have me and a very large group of people who do not smoke at all. So, who’s next? Instead of taking cigarettes off the shelves, the tobacco industry views today’s teens as tomorrow’s customers, using menthol-flavored products to attract and addict kids – and it’s working. More than half (54%) of youth who smoke (ages 12-17 years) use menthol cigarettes. making it easier for kids to start and harder for them to quit. Menthol is not JUST a flavor, it attracts and addicts kids As a teen mom, I am sharing this so we can all take action! Learn more about the impact of Big Tobacco’s manipulative tactics on our communities and how you can take action to help end this injustice. Let’s keep our kids enjoying the wonderful things our state has to offer. Link in bio #NotJustMenthol #TobaccoFreeNYS #ad @tobaccofreenys
