If you’re like me and feel like you run a marathon every day, you also feel like sometimes you just need a break!  Sandy beaches and somewhere tropical sound like the perfect way to relax and recharge.  But let’s be honest, that is not a practical solution every month or week.  That’s why it’s always important to make “me time” or “mommy time“.  Sometimes that means getting together with girlfriends or even taking a whole an afternoon and evening and going places by myself and doing whatever I want, like shopping or going to the spa for a facial and massage.  But sometimes that is not always an option either.  Maybe you’re a single mom or woman with a tight budget. Or maybe going out even requires too much energy and not the peace and quiet or R&R you need.  So here’s my solution for you.  Join me right now for a Pajama Party!  Stay in and relax.  Here’s what FUN {for a party of ONE} looks like!

Take a bath, a hot bath.  Do a little detox and get rid of all of the toxins.  First, you need to grab a large water to replenish your fluids as you sit in the tub.  To detox in the bath I like to use epsom salts.  The magnesium is so good for you and your muscles and it draws out the toxins.  If you just want a nice bubble bath, that’s a fabulous idea as well.  Here are my most favorite epsom salts, bubble baths and bath bombs for you to shop below.

Don’t forget to light a candle, below are also some of my favorites, and grab a bath tray and some fabulous bath towels.  Remember Enya?  I still love that and other soothing music when I take a relaxing bath.  I have a bath playlist that I love and ask my family to not come in and talk to me while I take a bath and I don’t answer my phone.

After your bath, slip into something light and feminine, like a pretty bath robe and slippers.  You’ll feel like a queen!  Don’t you deserve that?  I think so!  In a recent post called Advice For My Daughter, I shared my favorite robes that both Brooklyn and I wore from Plum Pretty Sugar.  They’re divine and you need one!  Trust me, you’ll thank me later!
 You can shop for them here:

Next, treat yourself to some luxurious, rich foot cream and body cream.  I love that my body feels like silk after a bath and I feel so relaxed.  Don’t forget…..keep drinking LOTS of water!!

Deodorant goes on next but have you tried my very favorite?  Donna Karan Cashmere Mist is absolutely FABULOUS and smells like a dream!  It’s been my favorite for years!  Treat your hair to some leave-in hair beautifier.  This one is my favorite and I’ve been using it for the last couple of years for my brittle color-treated hair. Are you feeling fabulous yet?  I bet you are!  Top it off with some light, pretty body spray!

Alright, it’s time to put on some fabulous pajamas.  Now, it’s starting to cool down at night so there’s nothing skimpy here.  Especially after a bath, I want to stay cozy and warm.  Here are a bunch of fabulous pj’s I think you’ll just love.  I splurge on pajamas.  I am at home a lot, working from home and being at home with my family so I love pretty and comfortable pajamas and slippers.

Ok, we’re clean and relaxed and comfortably dressed.  Let’s make a drink.  Now, if you’re looking for something alcoholic, sorry!  I can’t help you there because I don’t drink.  BUT, grab something warm like hot chocolate or tea or whatever you drink and run back here and join me.  I am going to make my very favorite thing ever….a Dirty Diet Coke!  What’s that you ask?  Click HERE for the recipe.  Ohhhhh it is just fabulous!  Every time I drink one, I feel like I’m on vacation. And don’t forget to pin it!

First off, CHEERS!  I hope whatever you’re drinking is yummy and hitting the spot!  What’s next on my list?  Let’s paint our toenails!  I get my pedicures once a month but in between I try to give them a little TLC and also give them a fresh paint job.  I love bright colors in the summer, sometimes darker colors in the winter, but I really really love that soft pink-polished look all year-round.  Here are some of my favorite colors.

At any pajama party or slumber party, you know what ALWAYS happens….face masks!  Borghese is officially my favorite line of face masks. I was invited to try these last year and I’ve been hooked ever since! Especially the purple firming mask.  It tightens your face so much in 10 minutes and I feel like I’ve had a facelift after washing it off and feel and look like a few years have washed off with it.  I’m obsessed!!

Well, I’m hungry.  Should we make a snack?

If you love pink http://www.cialisgeneriquefr24.com/cialis-generique-professional/ and you love cupcakes, THIS is my favorite Pink Velvet Cupcake (or cake) Recipe.

They are divine!  The perfect treat to indulge on!  We are NOT counting calories at this slumber party so go right on ahead!

This is the perfect time for a fun movie…..all by myself! Or, sometimes, at this point, I’ll invite a few girlfriends over to watch one of our favorite shows or a fun flick.  If you prefer to stay alone, lock your bedroom door and tell everyone you’re still taking some “me time”.  Put on the show you’re going to watch and grab some BIG comfortable pillows for your bed and the perfect fuzzy blanket.  There’s nothing better!

If you have a hard time watching a movie or TV and sitting still like I do, grab your iPad or laptop and do some online shopping at the same time.  This is my FAVORITE thing to do and the best way to shop AND relax at the same time.  I just received the cutest iPad cover……and I know we all love marble right now.

 Isn’t this gold and marble case adorable? It’s cute AND protects my iPad.  Here is the laptop cover. I love the felt cases for them as well.  The pockets are great and the quality is fantastic!

Such a fabulous accessory.  Wouldn’t it be a great Christmas gift idea too?  Just grab your brand and model and place an order HERE for the laptop cover or HERE for the iPad cover.

I’m also including a fabulous and oh-so-pretty selection of eye masks because if you’re having tadalafil apomorphine this pajama party during the day while you’re kids are at school, why not block out the sun and take a little nap? Go ahead, recharge your battery! You deserve it!

Wasn’t that fun?!  I hope you had the BEST time ever and feel relaxed!  Don’t forget to come back often and do it again and again because we ladies need to pamper ourselves and recharge our batteries!  Thanks for hanging out with me!
