SPRING Shopping Guide 2015


From the Editor Depending upon where you live, spring has either arrived early or not at all as we have reached the middle of March. (For those in the southern hemisphere, summer is just coming to an end and spring, I do realize, couldn’t be farther away.) Either way, a change is coming. An opportunity to press the refresh button. An opportunity to take a very deep breath, and release any past worries, past doubts and stand confidently at the beginning of a new journey that is the new season. And while clothes don’t solidify any dream from materializing, they certainly do set the right tone, put us in the right frame of mind and offer a support that reminds us we are worthy of any dream we wish to achieve. Whether that means dressing casually, yet every so chic and simple, or elegant and très feminine for a special occasion, dressing can be quite fun and enjoyable when we have the right elements in our closets. In this season’s TSLL shopping guide, Splurge and Save trends are shared which include suede, trenches, gingham, long, flowing dresses and more, along with my personal picks for shopping directly from this newsletter. Simply click and shop. It really is that simple. And in even more exciting news, many readers have asked me to share with them when I found an app that would work like Hukkster (email alerts when prices dropped on selected items), and well, I think I’ve finally found it – Trackif. I recently signed up, but it looks to do all that Hukkster did (drag the bookmarklet to your toolbar and click when you are visiting an item

you wish to monitor), as well as do much more. Do check it out, as I think you will be impressed. And last but not least, details about sign-ups for Capsule Wardrobe Online Styling sessions are shared in this newsletter as well. I have expanded the number of openings available for fall styling sessions beginning in August and the exact date as to when the sign-up window is is shared at the end of this newsletter. If you have any questions, please feel free to email me – info@thesimplyluxuriouslife.com. I look forward to working with new and former clients as they curate their very own signature style that will last from one year to the next. Well, without further ado, it’s time to shop. I do hope you enjoy.

For more information on TSLL book tour, podcast, app and all things Simply Luxurious, stop by shannonables.com. Available in paperback or eBook, have a look at what readers are saying:

From the very first pages the book inspires you to defy the popular trends and choose the life based on depth, quality and passion. A must read for everybody who wants to live consciously! -Magda Ables inspires me to savor more while slowing down and consuming less. Her call to curate an elegant, simple life is backed up by specific examples and concrete how-to's. I suggest enjoying her podcast and her blog -- you will receive the full compliment of her inspiring yet grounded approach to living a deep and beautiful life. –Oona I really enjoy her blog and podcasts so I had to buy her book as well!! I love having something tangible to read and reread when I decide to take a break from the internet. Her book helps to keep me focused on what I consider to be the important things in MY life and to enjoy every step of my journey. Shannon Ables is an inspiration and her writing style flows effortlessly. -Shiela

As a long time reader of Shannon's blog I have been looking forward to a book from her for years. I will say that her debut book did not disappoint! I was expecting a rehash of many of her blog posts, as many blog-authors do, but her book was far from a rehash. I found the topics organized well and the view-points refreshing. Many of the chapters offer checklists that I will be referring to often. She also speaks to you on a level that a welltraveled, well-versed friend would, which honestly I am missing in my in-person life. There is so much great information contained in this book, it could easily have been spread over 2 or 3 books. This book would be a great gift for somebody graduating high school, college, starting in a new relationship or starting any kind of new chapter in their life. I am already looking forward to re-reading several chapters and following through on Shannon's advice. -Carrie

This is a really fun read and has lots of encouraging info if you want to live the glamorous life but don't have the time or money!! -Linda I'm so LOVING this book. Going thru and absorbing each "exercise" My Interview & Converting Dreams to Plans.... I'm so encouraged, inspired, and feeling a true since of Normalcy...in being my true Authentic Self. It's AWESOME..... -Michthane
