What every woman should have & know by the time she is 30!

I was hanging out with a girlfriend and she said, "I just read this article about 30 things that every woman should have by the time she is 30." I quickly responded, "I just read it too." I was asking her opinion about getting a really nice handbag that I can use all year long. She is one of the founders of Buttoned-Up. Check out their site! You will want to get a closet consultation with them ASAP! 

One of the things on the list was to own a really nice handbag by the time you are 30. Chanel anyone!? We were both still thinking about the article in Glamour Magazine. You can also get the book and get the scoop first hand.

No matter what side of 30 you're on, you will still be intrigued by Glamour's book. Trust me, it's a fun read!

Here are my favorites from the list. Things to know & have by the time you are 30!

3. Something perfect to wear if the employer or man of your dreams wants to see you in an hour

4. A purse, a suitcase, and an umbrella you’re not ashamed to be seen carrying.

5. When to try harder and when to walk away. 

6. you should know-The names of the secretary of state, your great-grandmothers, and the best tailor in town. 

8.Where to go—be it your best friend’s kitchen table or a yoga mat—when your soul needs soothing. 

9. you should know-That you can’t change the length of your legs, the width of your hips, or the nature of your parents. 

10. That your childhood may not have been perfect, but it’s over.

12. That nobody gets away with smoking, drinking, doing drugs, or not flossing for very long. 

13. Who you can trust, who you can’t, and why you shouldn’t take it personally.

14. A skin-care regimen, an exercise routine, and a plan for dealing with those few facets of life that don’t get better after 30.

Let's talk about #14!

** A skin-care regimen, an exercise routine, and a plan for dealing with those few facets of life that don’t get better after 30. 

One of the most important ways to take care of your skin is to have a day and night routine. Take care of it! You owe it to yourself. Cleanse your skin with an appropriate cleanser. Infuse your skin with a vitamin C product. Correct your skin with products that will help treat your skin problem areas. Moisturize your skin to prevent aging and please protect your skin with sunscreen! Find an esthetician that can help you. Even if you see her every couple months. She will help you stay on top of product knowledge and teach you how to take care of it.

An exercise routine- well I'm over 30 now and I had my 3rd baby this past year. I have to say that I definitely notice that my metabolism is changing! I have to exercise to keep my metabolism up! If I miss a week or even a few days, I can feel it. I can feel my legs and back tighten up. I can feel the lack of energy. I start feeling old. Not a very good feeling at all. Exercise does more than change your body. For me, it's also therapy. It's so good for the soul! I can work out for an hour and feel like all of my problems are solved. It helps me think clear. Sometimes, it's the only hour in the day that I can have to myself. There are so many reasons why everyone should exercise. If you don't have a weekly routine, think about getting one!

How about you? Have you read the list? What are your favorite #'s?
