MAD SAG PICKS

NAVY
Navy was noticeably a top pick for celeb's choice frock at this event! Love this classic, rich colour for any skin & hair tone especially Amanda Seyfried's styling! 
WHITE & LACE
Cream, ivory, white, whichever tone you decide on is making a huge comeback this season! Find it in a lace and you've hit the trend jackpot.
MAGENTA, LIPSTICK, APRICOT 
Hot, hot, hot! Find a pink hue you love and rock it this spring/summer!  
METALLIC & EMERALD 
Case and point that you CAN wear sequins after New Years! Don't be afraid to whip out those metallics for night or day functions, the key is styling it way down to casual mode!
We are also so excited about "green" being the 'it' colour of the year (published by Pantone) and are loving the emerald hue on Alexis Bledel

DONATE AND HELP: 

A great way to get involved and help a child in need during Manitoba's harsh cold conditions is the Coats for Kids drive. Spread the word and help kids keep warm this season by donating coats to underprivileged families! 
Starting today, Tiber River is accepting donations at both Winnipeg locations until February 14th! If you have any questions please find Tiber River's contact information here.

MAD'S BEACH BAG MUST HAVES 
Part II to our collaboration this week with Tiber River we tackle our 'beach bag must haves' for our time in the sun! 
It is very important we keep ourselves protected from horrible and uncomfortable sunburns while remaining fashionable of course. In doing so, it's major to consider not only what goes into your suitcase but your beach bag too! 
Below are some item's we consider must haves for our vacation to the tropics! 

1. Radiate in the sun by keeping your skin moisturized to prevent any dryness! Right now Tiber River offers 15% off all their delicious smelling body butters for the month of January that can do the trick. 
Us MAD ladies always have a few scents stocked in store that takes care of our dry hands, especially during the winter months! 
Available online here or find more selection in store 
1. Whether you're out for breakfast, lunch, dinner or lounging poolside, this resort dress/cover-up is absolutely stunning! A slip is included if you need to use this maxi as a dress, otherwise throw on top of your swimsuit sheer and relax! 
Available in store for $129.00 SM-LG

2. Protect your face from the sun and stay chic with a fedora! There are a variety of colours to choose from online below or stop in to MAS boutique:
Available online here and in store for $29.00 SM - L/XL

3. And lastly your much needed carry-all bag to hold all your beach items! Try this Co Lab nylon tote with cross body strap, repels water and can function for other uses like going to the gym or a weekend bag! Choose from colours: Tan, Navy or Black o/s:
Available online here or in store for $42.00 (sale price 40% off/ final sale)
1. Don't forget about sunscreen! Especially for your face if you want to maintain healthy looking skin now and in the future. Dermalogica offers both a moisturizer with SPF30 (Dramatic Skin Recovery) and a sun screen SPF50 (Solar Defence Booster) that you can add to your own moisturizer or foundation for ultimate protection! Visit one of their locations and ask what product will best suit your needs.
Available in store at Tiber River Naturals 

2. In the off chance you do find yourself with a minor sunburn on any area of your body, "Save Me Gel" acts as an antiseptic relief gel which will sooth redness or itching from your burn and helps prevent peeling! It even takes care of and disinfects cuts, even irritations from insect bites to things like poison ivy! And better yet, it's all naturally derived!
Miracle in a bottle? We think so! 
Available in store at Tiber River Naturals

3. A girl's always got to stock a lip moisturizer near by especially with our harsh weather conditions both hot or cold! Keep dry, cracked lips at bay with the choice of many yummy flavoured lip silks from Tiber! 
Available online here or find more selection in store for 3/$12.00

MAD THROUGH INSTAGRAM 

You've probably noticed it's been a while since our last instagram post and despite it constantly being on our minds we were swept up in the madness of the season and did not manage to come together for this team post!  
So to say the least, it has been busy, maybe a tad crazy at times for us and although we love a little crazy with the constant rush of December and the prep in months prior, we admittedly welcome the calmness of the New Year. 

Here are our pictures for the last few months consisting of team projects, MAD events, team outings, our christmases and with out a doubt our biggest moment, the birth of Michelle and Jesse's baby girl Harper :) 

Have a great week,
-MAD Team
