Notes of Eunoia: Julian's New Job, Jia's Awards Day and A FIRST LOOK at a Cottagecore Summer

Posted by Ashley Bates on

Hello Beautiful Thinkers,

Thank you for being patient with me getting the next NOTES out. I have been working hard on A Cottagecore Summer for y'all! But first, let me celebrate these two!

Julian got a new job! Stand with applause please!! He is now a Sales Consultant at Toyota of Hattiesburg. This was a super scary step for this man. It's hard for him to step into something new, but he's married to ME, so I did what I do best and pushed him. He walked in, got an interview immediately. He was called a week later and then told to come back once more to meet the owner. And they gave him the job! His first day was May 7th and he has already sold his first car yesterday! I'm super proud of him. He will do well there! 

My girl made a promise to herself to secure a trophy at this year's award's program. She usually has at least one B which is just a medal. She said she's had enough of those. She kept her promise and had All As. She got her trophy! I'm forever grateful this child is breezing through school. This lets me work on the areas she lacks in. She is getting better though. Helping more (without mouth) around the house and keeping her areas cleaner. I can't complain.

 

As for me, I have been dealing with some intense emotions. I'm not quite ready to talk about them yet as I still don't know what to do with them. In the meantime, I have been channeling this energy into my newest campaign, A Cottagecore Summer! 

For those that don't know, cottagecore is an aesthetic and lifestyle that romanticizes the soft feminine life. It's having a connection with nature, vintage charm and self love centered around intentional living. It's having a slow cup of coffee, or self massaging rich butter into your skin. It's meditation and writing down questions that you want answered at your next doctor's visit. It's wearing your favorite perfume to bed. It's hyperfeminine and delicate. It's wearing comfortable, flowy dresses. It's fresh flowers on your vanity. It's bathing in bath oil and rose petals. Just a girl. 

I have decided to bring back some nostalgic body products from the past that you guys often ask about and a BRAND NEW product! I miss romanticizing my baths and looking forward to them. I miss slathering up in Glow and Glaze til I look like a wet seal. Shiny, soft and smooth. I know y'all miss it too! This event includes:

Drench My Body Lather, Buff My Body Scrub, Frost My Body Glow, Silk My Body Lotion, Polish My Body Glaze, Mist My Body Essence, Refresh My Body Dusting Powder (NEW!), and A Cottagecore Summer Parfum.

The Dusting Powder is my favorite. Since it's technically already summer heat here in MS, powder will be on daily rotation. As our grammies say, powder keeps you cool! And it does, A swipe under heavy breast, between thick thighs and rolls and under the arms keeps you drier and enhances your scent when layered with the other products. You guys will love it.

Y'all, I'm too excited. I've had this Parfum since last summer. It's still a scent I never tire of. It's an ultra-feminine, captivating blend that combines the delicate scent of cherry blossom with the fresh and airy notes of summer breeze with a splash of lemon. It can be a big girl or little girl fragrance. It's STUNNING!

Jia and I collaborated together on this campaign. We both chose this scent. I chose the name and she designed all the labels by hand. Digitally drawing the tiny lemons and cherry blossoms. She worked very hard on it.  I told her what I envisioned and she made magic!

This is a one time drop! These products and this scent will retire to the vault and MAAAAYYYYYYY come back for Christmas. We are working on something that will be solidified by Fall so we may or may not can do a body sale. We will see!

We have lots of visuals for you guys over the next couple of weeks that Jia and I created for this campaign that showcase the soft life of A Cottagecore Summer and we hope you fall in love with this beautiful summery scent. Stock up cause it won't come back again! This event is JUNE 20-22. The store will open at 8:30am that Friday morning.  Limited quantities. Set your alarms.
