That Reminds Me (with Fashion)!

A bracelet that is fashionable and helps you keep track of your life.

Let's be totally honest here. How many of us made a New Years Resolutions that by now we've forgotten about it, or haven't really been loyal to it, or have just decided, "I'll try tomorrow, or next week for sure!"

Perhaps some of us actually achieved our goal and have set the bar a bit higher? Have you ever wanted to keep track of something, anything...from how many cups of coffee you drink, to your sugar intake, or keep track of that lovely, "Point" system diet, maybe you're trying to take in more fiber, or fruits and vegetable servings. But, how do you do all this? Keep it on a piece of paper with a magnet at home? Or on your home computer, or office laptop? Sometimes we can't get to our items at the time we are trying to track our accomplishments or where we fell just a bit short because we aren't where our (lets call it "log") log is. So we have to wait and remember to write it down when we get home, or to the office.

So, what happens? Life, family, favorite TV show, a meeting, kids, shopping, etc. so at the end of the day, we can't or don't recall exactly what we did or didn't do to reach our goal, or new life style. Then we try to remember and sometimes that is a difficult task.

Well, I'm here to tell you today, that Founder and Creative Director Chelsea Charles has created the PERFECT solution!! It's called the "Count Me Healthy" bracelet. It's amazing. Just as amazing as you are! These bracelets come in several styles, purposes, and metals. You can wear them as a single bracelet or as a stack.

They are an open end cuff style bracelet with beads on them. It's a "beautiful journal for your wrist" while acting as a physical and visual yet stylish reminder of our goals. All you do is simply move the bead from one side to the other each time you achieve one step of your goal. The goal set is yours and for your personal desire. To the rest of the world, it looks just like a beautiful piece of beaded cuffed jewelry. These bracelets come in many styles to match what your end desire is.

  •  Just to mention a few: 
  • Happy and Blessed (on this one you might want to monitor with the beads your own blessings, kind words, kind deeds, or perhaps weeks until a loved one returns from the Service etc.) 
  • Mommy and Me: (monitor glasses of water, fruit and vegetable servings, calcium, fiber, prenatal vitamins, baby's feedings daily toilet training achievements etc.)
  • Sisters
  • Bridesmaid's Bracelet
  • Bride to Be
  • Original
  • Friendship

All the different styles can really do the same thing; the difference is in the packaging and gifting. Wouldn't it be nice to give your best friend a Sterling Silver bracelet that says "Friendship" on the box? Or if your friend is getting married...she has lots on her plate to take care of...her beaded bracelet could keep her on track, and the box specifically says" "Bride to Be" that makes the gift all the more special.

SXE Apparel, in Danville at the Livery & Mercantile, currently is the only store in the East Bay Area that carries these lovely pieces of wrist jewelry

The Count Me Healthy bracelets have been featured on the Today Show, E!s Fashion Police and in both the official Oscar and Grammy gift baskets. These bracelets have also been in Shape, Elle, Woman's Day, Teen Vogue, Golf Digest and Essence Magazine. They have been recommended as a great holiday gift from Weight Watchers Magazine. Even touring musicians such as Taylor Swift and Rihanna own a Count Me Healthy Bracelet. This year, treat yourself to a personal Count Me Healthy bracelet. Without a doubt, you won't regret it.
