End of Summer Goodies: Nira's August Hot List
Nira’s Hot List Contributed by Virgin Radio Morning Show Co-Host Nira Arora | @niraarora
Can you believe it’s already that time? Don’t we say this every year? Where did Summer go? How did that happen?! And yet… here we are again! There are a few weeks left and we try to cram everything in – a couple more trips, a few more visits, some extra play dates for the kids (and the adults too!) Not only that, but there are also a few summertime goodies that I think you need to try before the sun sets on summer. Here are a few items to get your hands on!
Relaxation Magnesium - SISU
I’m not sure how you feel, but by the time it’s August, but I’m pretty exhausted! I’m out of a routine, I’m low on sleep, and my eating habits are out the window! I find the Relaxation Magnesium by SISU super beneficial. It temporarily promotes relaxation, helps ease some of the negative effects of stress and improves sleep quality. Magnesium is an important mineral that not only protects your heart and arteries, it also works to naturally calm your muscular and nervous systems. This blend also provides the restorative qualities of GABA which has been shown in studies to safely and gently alleviate the adverse effects of stress such as restlessness and trouble sleeping.
There are 3 flavours of the SISU Magnesium Relaxation blend that are now available: Raspberry Lemonade, Honey Grapefruit and Tart Cherry.
Spearmint Tie Dye Romper - Smash + Tess
Are you looking for the perfect pattern for the last month of Summer? Look no further, here it is! The Spearmint Tie Dye Saturday Smash + Tess Romper is the perfect way to maintain those Summer vibes subtly. A great transition from Summer into late September. The Saturday Smash + Tess romper is already a crowd favourite - and adding the extra dimension of tie dye is total amazing-ness!
To complete this perfection there is a matching Mini Saturday Spearmint Tie Dye Romper for your lil bestie! Seriously? I can’t! Cuteness OVERLoad!
Available in Pretty Pink, Spearmint Tie-Dye and Midnight Black this sleeveless Romper is the perfect way to spend your Saturday. Made in a rayon from a bamboo and Cotton Blend, the wide front pockets and drop waist add to the utter adorableness of this must-have Romper.
Spring Water Vodka Sodas - Pacific Cool
For me, summer is go-go-go – and I need easy-easy-easy. Pretty much – convenience! Flavored as lightly as the summer breeze and using their very own pure spring water aquifer as the very first of just 3 ingredients. Pacific Cool offers a crisp, clean vodka soda that's low in calories and sugar, without sacrificing taste and giving you pure convenience! There are 7 delicious flavours, including Raspberry, Lemon Lime, Blood Orange, Grapefruit, and Blueberry. Plus new this Summer: Sour Cherry AND White Peach! Fueled with just 100 Calories, these will be your go-to Après bevvie that’s ready to drink when you are.
Pacific Cool Vodka Soda is available in BC and Alberta! Look for the full line of flavours at select private liquor stores. If you are obsessed with Blood Orange like I am, you can find it at a BC Liquor Store near you.
