Strength Bracelet

...My New Favorite Accessory...

The purpose of Charisse and I's blog is very simple; sharing things with you that we love and admire. Beauty, Fashion, Graphic Design are all aesthetic life joys.  Although aesthetic, they are fun and beautiful and enjoyable.  I get so excited when I find something artistic that reflects an actual personal life meaning. I'm a very analytical person and so it's rare that something comes along that really speaks to me. We all have our own life struggles, and I'm learning that now more than ever. No one's life is perfect, no one gets all that they desire in life, struggles are present everywhere.  I'm so incredibly thankful that I have very special, amazing friends and family and GOD in my life to get me through my own obstacles.  Recently my BF has moved away but before she left she gifted me a bracelet that means more to me than she actually knows. While writing this blog and researching links on where to purchase this special bracelet I found out that the designer, Ashley Bridget is offering a 50% discount as well as a donation from your purchase to go towards Sick Kids Neuroblastoma Research, specifically in honor of a fellow beauty guru and YouTube sensation Talia Castellano who recently lost her battle to cancer. If you feel like you're having a bad day or even year, you need to check this girl's YouTube channel out, this is how you need to live everyday:

Not only do I love the look of this bracelet and how you are effortlessly "stacking" your arm candy because they are all attached to one clasp, but the meaning behind the bracelet is just amazing. Kristen and I both have these bracelets to remind each other of it's meaning. I have a feeling that I will be wearing this piece A LOT! This will go with literally everything and i'm just so OBSESSED with it!!! Below is the meaning of the bracelet and I cry every time I read it...

.................................................................

"With life's obstacles repeatedly testing you, wear your strength on your sleeve. The strength bracelet signifies your ability to uphold your morals, face life's woes, and find courage when times seem hard. Rock it, and show the world your strength with the symbol on your wrist and head held high."
