    Hi! I'm Trixia and welcome to my slice of life. I'm not your average blogger, I'm a hybrid of multi-dimensional shoujo, a rare breed of legal loli and a unique original producer of ideas and inspiration. My path goes on the other side of the road which is less traveled, where thrill and excitement rests. This blog holds my inner thoughts, experiences, opinions and out-of-the-ordinary theories which I keep as a journal of my life's highlights.

    Mom was recently given a small bag from her friend, she was thankful, unfortunately she's not very fond of using small bags due to the amount of things she usually carries, so she gave me her Dooney & Bourke bag. If you are interested in purchasing, this is the link for the official website.
    Dooney & Bourke designs and crafts instant classics with the perfect union of timeless American style, the highest regard for materials and craftsmanship, and a dedication to effortless functionality. We offer a broad range of fashion accessories for women and men including handbags, men’s bags, women’s and men’s small leather goods, watches, weekend and travel accessories, scarves, jewelry and more.

    Opening up the inside is a Four wide Spaces for your keepsakes, materials are really nice to touch and sturdy enough to hold your necessities. Dooney & Bourke  bags are made with finest leather with craftmanship and quality materials committed to give the best durability for their customers.


    Upon closer inspection theres a small leather strap and hook for your valuables such as wallets or easy to hook in keys for more security and easier access. I love how they thought of efficient design to benefit their consumers.




    A small dangling heart shaped engraved name on the zipper! Perfect use for my mall-shopping, grocery and small out-of house trips in fab! Thanks mom!

    Here's a heritage story of Dooney&Bourke's start up:
    In 1975 in Norwalk, CT, Dooney & Bourke was born through the creative vision of Peter Dooney and the entrepreneurial spirit of Frederic Bourke. Inspired by America’s rich history in leather goods, ranging from mail pouches to saddle bags and early military gear, we created the distinct blend of classic and contemporary styles that have been the hallmark of every Dooney & Bourke collection.

    The Dooney & Bourke brand was launched with the idea that we could make a difference in the fine leather goods market. With a steadfast commitment to enduring style, timeless versatility, and uncompromising quality, we selected only the finest raw materials and revived the time-honored techniques of old world leather craftsman.

    Since our founding nearly forty years ago, we’ve become known as a brand that stands for creating iconic designs inspired by our American-heritage style and our New England roots.

    and their Guarantee...

    We believe there's only one way to properly craft a Dooney & Bourke product, and that's with rigorous attention to detail and using only the highest quality materials and components available.


    Dooney & Bourke products prove their enduring value by improving with age. Everything with our Dooney & Bourke mark is designed and built to provide a lifetime of use and enjoyment.


    And that's why we back everything we make with our ironclad Dooney Guarantee. We stand behind the durability of our leather goods and offer an unconditional guarantee against any defects in craftsmanship for a full year of normal use.

    Craftmanship

    At Dooney & Bourke, we have a small thing for craftsmanship. And that’s putting it mildly. At a time when many companies are using cheaper materials and shortcuts in manufacturing, our commitment to craftsmanship has never wavered.
    Craftsmanship for us means quality materials, quality constructions, and quality artisans and craftspeople. Each bag is the result of collaboration between Peter Dooney and our team of over 40 designers and craftsmen in Norwalk, CT and Tuscany, Italy with our network of specially sourced European leather purveyors, old-world tanneries, and the best factories around the world.

    Love Month is coming!

     A month of preparation before the big event is crucial to creating the natural flawless beauty that we always dreamed of!


    Even though the Holiday season gives us this feeling of joy, it is inevitable that we experience stress and muscle pain from the busy months, our diet intake greatly affects our skin conditions, it is the time for repair and rejuvination!

    I share this experience that to all for a brief overview of my life everyday and this Christmas products sent to me that helps me swipe away all tensions even helps with combating emotional stress leaving you relaxed and stress-free.

    If you ever felt each day is a long endless struggle and your muscle aches from physical hardwork. Mighty or not we all felt this feeling.  Each day I get physical work at home taking care of my 6 Dogs, 4 hedgehogs, ponds of fishes and turtles, maintenance is real hardwork and at the end of the day I lay flat on the bed unable to move. Muscle twitches left me with pain and it renders me motionless. Back then I thought of a natural way to relieve the pain to avoid overuse of pain killers. I started with basic Heat application, if I am able to rest for a while, I would submerge myself in a hot bath, relaxing every part of my muscle before I retire for the day. This was very effective, but although I was able to alleviate pain it would be best if I could be able to scrub off accumulated dirt in my skin. Lately, I was able to try A whitening and anti-aging gold bar soap WHITE ALLURE from magic potions with MICRODERMABRASION IN A JAR WITH ARGAN OIL, an exfoliator, skin smoothener without redness and swelling. Magic Potions sent me the package to try out the products so here's a review.

      purchase here:

    White Allure Microdermabrasion :
    http://www.magic-potions.com/en/white-allure-microdermabrasion-in-a-jar-with-argan-oil-50g

    Aroma:

    The first Aroma when I opened the outer packaging I describe as CITRUS smell of sweet papaya, the smell is fragrant throughout the whole packaging gives the feeling of calm to your senses.

    Microdermabrasion smells peachy but its not for consumption   

    Notes on the packaging:

    I am very Thankful for magic potions small note wishing that I would enjoy the project and they're very concern with the health, they sent me a note to check if I'm allergic to the product first. I checked the product by doing the Allergy Patch Test by applying on the upper part of my inner arm ( at the crook of my elbow) then without getting it wet for 24 hours I observed if I'll develop any allergic reaction. Gladly I am not allergic, so I proceeded to use the product.

    Ingredients:

    Some distinct ingredients found in the  WHITE ALLURE GOLD BAR SOAP that is a thumbs up would be:

    carica papaya fruit extract
    Carica Papaya Fruit Extract, this extract contains enzymes papain and chymonpapain, which have exfoliating properties that remove damaged skin.

    Vitis Vinifera Oil or Grape Seed Oil, an oil rich in linoleic acid, absorbed by the skin is an effective skin moisturizer, it's also the best for treatment of acne.

    Collagen and Glutathione as this both ingredients come in par with the rest of the fruity extract, absorption becomes effective which I love about this product.


    As for the
     exfoliator, MICRODERMABRASION IN A JAR WITH ARGAN OIL

    Argania Spinosa or Argan oil in the market, Argan oil in beauty products is a celebrity where most people are crazy about, if you are not acquainted with the product, it has reported in many users of products with this oil of its powerful hydration, moisturization and skin softener. The best solution for the usual exfoliator problems like skin dehydration after exfoliation!


    Appearance:


    The White Allure Gold Bar Soap is shaped oblong, almost opaque orange color with minute glitter- like appearance inside the soap.

    The Microdermabrasion in a Jar with Argan Oil is White with creamy texture.

    Consistency:
     The Microdermabrasion in a Jar with Argan Oil has salt like texture on it, when applied spreads easily to face and the micro-salt like texture gives that nice exfoliating feeling your skin needs.

    The Art of relaxation by using scents

    Cleansing the body is the initial step but the mind must also be sought of in conjuction with these, and for a relaxing therapy, I would lit up a small candle, a Christmas gift given by our Family Friend Ms. Loida, Thank you!

    Lavender is the best mind soother. Sometimes I don't notice that I could think ideas much faster and better with all these combined and leave the shower more than refreshed and even more like renewed!

    Plus, this will become my initial baseline scent before I put my perfume on and it stays until next day.

     Hello Minna(everyone)! Today was a blessed Sunday, we were on our way to church when we thought that we should go out and take pictures at the football field. The weather is so cold, it is freezing and windy, now that they'd be a low pressure area coming near.


    The light setting is great, no sun just cloudy skies and very very cold air. Perfect for these photo shoots


     I am wearing my Christmas Cotton jacket, you'll see this in my Christmas 2011 Geolica suit, with patterned design. It is very comfortable and warm.
     My usual Sunday dress the checkered brown dress, I had a picture of this with my deceased dog, chestnut.
