Wood Watches for The Modern Millennial + Giveaway

March 28, 2019 By lyndsinreallife 1 Comment

There are two things that are very important to me: being on time, and looking good while doing it!

Between my various jobs, my days are busy. Basically nonstop. I have specific times I need to be here and there and everywhere, plus deadlines to meet. I need a watch to get through my days. Sure, I have a cell phone that shows the time, but there is nothing quite like the look and feel of a watch on my wrist. The elegance and style, and the warm nostalgia I feel when reading an analog clock/watch; there’s nothing quite like it.

 

 

Disclosure: I received a watch as part of a collaboration/partnership with JORD Watches. No monetary compensation was received. All opinions and words are my own.

JORD Watches (pronounced Yode) carefully create beautiful wood watches for the modern person. There are also watches made with other earthly materials to accommodate all styles (like mine, which you’ll see below)! JORD watches have functionality and beauty, with a touch of sustainability.

 

 

 Browsing through the user-friendly website, the watch that spoke to me was the Sier Arcadia; though honestly, it was REALLY hard to choose! Created with real, rough cut white marble (hand polished to a stunning luster) and rose gold, the Sier Arcadia is classic minimalism at its finest. I am all about clean lines and simple styles, and I knew this watch would pair perfectly with any outfit.

 

 

 The watch arrived in the most beautiful packaging:

 

 

I’ve owned watches before, but nothing quite like this. You can see and feel the quality of the Sier Arcadia. It has weight, but not too much. The white leather band is thick enough to not break apart, but thin enough to not feel bulky. The rose gold metal mesh band is comfortable, sleek, and doesn’t fade like other mesh bands I’ve had. The bands are easily interchangeable, which I really like!

One thing I surprisingly enjoy is that the watch face doesn’t have any numbers or marks. Without the numbers, it’s especially sleek and minimalist. Clutter is stressful, and there’s no clutter in this watch! I also like being able to tell the time without the numbers. It reminds me of my childhood (you know, the 90s, before electronic technology ruled the world).

 

 

It’s really lovely and convenient to have such a unique watch that matches everything! I can go from work to dinner, or a light workout to brunch, and never have to worry if my accessories match my outfit. And with this watch, I’ll always be on time (which is an issue for me). 😉

 

 

It’s funny (& maybe weird?): when I wear my JORD watch, I feel fancier. I feel confident and pretty, and like I know a thing or two about accessorizing. My watch makes it SO EASY to make any outfit look great. I even stopped wearing my fitness tracker so I can wear this!

I’m so happy to have incorporated this beautiful watch into my lifestyle; thank you JORD for my gorgeous watch!

Ambassador Events Nutrition SoCal

PLUSH Show 2014 With Delta Labs

June 9, 2014 By lyndsinreallife 7 Comments

Yesterday, I had the awesome opportunity of representing Delta Labs at the PLUSH Show in Downtown Los Angeles! I am an ambassador with Delta Labs, which is a company with an all-natural line of supplements for women based in New York, and the president of the company, Debbie, reached out to me asking if I would help with the booth. I jumped at the chance!! And I am SO glad I did!

The PLUSH Show/Expo is a high-end trade show put on by PlushLittleBaby and labeled the posh little urbanities show. It’s a place for new moms, expecting moms, veteran moms, anyone remotely interested in being a mom, and also a few dads to check out high-quality mom and baby products! There were so many booths with great products and services. It was definitely very “posh”! The event is usually indoors, but it was outdoors this year at the Los Angeles Center Studios. It was pretty hot, so unfortunately a lot of people left early. It was a little too much for the kiddos. I, however, loved it! I don’t often get to spend a lot of time outdoors (living in SoCal, I really should work to change this), and I was enjoying myself so much that I didn’t really notice! Which is saying a lot for me, because I am always the one complaining about the heat!

While most blog reviews of the PLUSH Show will be about the booths, products, and experiences as a mom, this one specifically is about my experience working my first trade show with an amazing company! 

I have been an ambassador with Delta Labs for a couple months now. I absolutely LOVE the supplements, and take 7 out of the 8! The only one I don’t take is the postnatal, because, well, I don’t have babies! I spent the day with the president of the company, Debbie, her daughter, Alisha, and the company’s photographer/friend, Jason. Hands down THE coolest people EVER! Debbie is absolutely gorgeous, and hearing her talk with such passion about Delta Labs was contagious. She told me that she was loving being an entrepreneur and enjoying her time now that her kids are grown, and she spoke with such happiness, pride, and class. It was powerful being in her presence. If I become half the woman she is, I’ll be happy. She is absolutely wonderful! It is extremely comforting having such a strong, passionate, intelligent woman behind a company that I represent and support 100%.

Alisha is her daughter, and she is one year older than me. She is a gorgeous, loving, fun girl (at what age do we start saying woman? I feel so weird calling myself a woman still!). She was so accepting of me. I get anxiety about going new places, but Alisha was so cool and helpful, that I didn’t have anxiety at all! As I’ve mentioned before in my posts, I have bipolar disorder, so I can get manic and very chatty, and tend to say really dumb things haha. Not once did I feel embarrassed to be myself around these ladies, and that rarely happens here in LA for me.

Jason, the photographer, was super cool, too! He has been on a few daytime television shows (he was the drinking expert on 1,000 Ways To Die LOL), and has such an awesome, fun personality.

It was so great spending the day with such awesome, fun, cool people, sharing about women’s health! I am passionate about health and what we put in our bodies, so getting to talk to so many amazing, beautiful moms and moms-to-be about high-quality supplements was simply wonderful! Plus I got to meet a lot of cool little kids, and being a nanny, I love cool little kids! Haha.

Also, I got to meet and hold a 7-week-old chihuahua puppy, which just made my day!

So yep, it was a wonderful day! Now I need to travel to New York to visit them! Haha. Can you believe I’ve never been to NYC?

I highly recommend checking out deltalabsusa.com and seeing what their stellar supplements are all about! Email me at lyndsay{at}thebalancedbrunette{dot}com if you have any questions! And use code GETFITWITHLYNDS for $5 off!! **Not valid on bundles
