Ascending: rising or increasing to higher levels, values, or degrees
Butterflies: The change from caterpillar though to the chrysalis and emergence as a butterfly is the greatest change in the animal world. It symbolises significant change in the course of one’s life, personality or way of thinking.
Putting them together brings us on an upwards journey of change and transformation, isn't that what we all strive for?
Naturalizer provided the shoes referenced for editorial consideration, see below for Full Disclosure
I know Fitness can get to be a bit routine at times, but with summer in full swing, you can get your heart rate up in ways that don't have to be routine at all, hop off the treadmill today and take a brisk walk OUTDOORS! Mix things up by taking a route that is new to you! Do you have a park or beach nearby? Those would be my top two choices, allowing you to get in a good walk and be closer to nature at the same time.
Naturalizer BZEES Summer Fun Slip-on Casual Shoe
The folks at Naturalizer put some pep in my summer step with their 'BZEES Summer Fun' slip on shoe in the color 'Tomato Red Mesh'. A bright Orange/Red color that I have been living in all summer.
The Lo Down on the BZEES:
PROS:
Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ - Stretch Mesh Upper, Casual, Slip-on style, round toe Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ - Elasticized collar for easy on/off construction Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ - Antimicrobial Lining Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ - Dual Air Gel and EVA Cushioning Comfort System Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ - Lightweight, each shoe weights less than 6oz Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ - Traction outsole with 1 1/14 inch heel
CONS:
Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ - I was sent the wrong size, with Naturalizer I am usually true to size, but with these I would have preferred a half size up (they press into my ankle bone a bit), Naturalizer also runs a bit narrow which is why I always order the Wide option in any of their shoe styles, but sadly I wasn't sent the Wide, I was sent the Medium so these were a little bit uncomfortable on me. But if you have a narrow foot, my con would certainly be your PRO.
Get Social:
Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ - "Like" Naturalizer on Facebookto keep up with promotions, discounts and giveaways! Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ - Follow @NaturalizerShoe on Twitter too Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ - You can follow their Pinterest Boards too!
MY TAKE:
If these had been sent in the right width they would get a 100% reco from me, but my pair were a bit too narrow for my liking. I do love that they are so lightweight, and slip on and off so easily, and they offer more foot support than a casual slip on would normally offer which is a definite plus. The mesh upper is stretch which is great when your feet swell. Now these are not runners shoes, but are great for walking, and do offer support which is rare in a slip on style.

Ascending Butterfly's 2011 Holidays Buying Guide, Giveaway #2 brought to you by:
By now lovely butterflies, you know more about my feet than you probably even wanted to know, yet there is still more to share! (inserting an LOL here)
I had the chance to visit with Naturalizer and their designer Angelique and learn all about the new fall styles that Naturalizer had to offer, and I was thoroughly impressed at how much more fashion forward Naturalizer Shoes have become WITHOUT sacrificing the comfort, and variety of wide width AND wide shaft boots that most of us have come to know and love. With color-blocking options and higher heels, they set out to prove you can really have your cake and eat it too when it comes to functional footwear that does not sacrifice one bit on style!
Want to feel like you were actually there? Check out this video of Naturalizer Shoe Designer extraordinaire, Angelique showing some of the new styles:
Here is a picture of me with Naturalizer Shoe Designer Angelique:
Ascending Butterfly (right) with Naturalizer Shoe Designer Angelique, I'm wearing 'Dinka' Boot in Black Leather
After trying on several pairs, (and not wanting to leave any of them behind) I ultimately selected the 'Dinka' Black Leather Boots. (They also have these in grey suede, and I'm thinking of picking those up too!)
About Dinka Boot
Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ -Leather or suede upper in a dress knee-high style with a round toe
Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ -Lace-up detail with metal eyelets at the back
Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ -Full length side zipper
Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ -Smooth lining, cushioning insole features N5 Comfort Elements
Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ -Non-slip outsole, 2 1/2 inch heel
These boots with the feminine back lace up detail are the absolute perfect height to make them both fashionable yet extremely comfortable for all day wear! I took them in both the wide width and wide shaft option as I have wide calves and these fit PERFECTLY! They are true to size (no need to size up) and do really go over wide calves!
My Take:
I'm a long time Naturalizer lover and used to work very close to the location that this event was held, so I would visit that particular store often. These boots match perfectly with my new black leather jacket from Wilsons Leather! These boots pair just as well with skinny jeans as they do with skirts and dresses. They are not so high you feel like you are teetering, and they are not so low that they are overly casual.
I have always loved that Naturalizer offered wide width shoes in a wide variety (as many wide width shoe lovers know, you always find out the hard way that not all styles are available in wide widths) and the fact that they offer wide shaft boots, makes Naturalizer the first name that comes to mind when I'm in the market for something new! The Naturalizer Ilaz style also caught my eye! (It gets honorable mention, I'm thinking of going back for that one!)
You didn't think I'd forget about you right? Who loves you butterfly?

I love companies with a conscience, I love using my spending power to support companies that give back. During the Friends of Naturalizer event, Naturalizer will donate $1 for every shoe or handbag sold to Dress for Success®. You can help decide how they should use the donation. You can vote daily from Thursday, September 29th through Sunday, October 2nd for one of these three programs:
(1) Suiting Program:
Dress for Success’ suiting program helps solve the catch-22 that confronts disadvantaged women trying to enter the workforce: without a job, how can you afford a suit? But without a suit, how can you get a job? The suiting program is a vital first-step in a woman's journey towards self-sufficiency. When a Dress for Success client has a job interview, she receives a complete outfit that will help her feel confident in her interview. After she finds work, she can return to Dress for Success for an employment suiting, where with the help and support of a highly-trained volunteer Personal Shopper, she will receive enough apparel to mix and match for up to a week’s worth of outfits.
(2) Professional Women's Group:
Dress for Success’ Professional Women's Group (PWG) provides the network of employed Dress for Success women with a community of support, practical information and inspiration to achieve self-defined success in career and life. The group provides participants with networking opportunities and professional skills growth to promote the development of their careers. Members experience a comfortable atmosphere in which they can share, grow and network with other women who have recently made the same transition into the workforce. With more than 15,000 PWG members at 71 Dress for Success affiliates around the world, members have an infrastructure and support system wherever they live.
(3) Success Summit:
The Success Summit is an annual three-day conference for Professional Women’s Group (PWG) members and delegates to develop leadership capabilities through networking, learning new career skills and exploring topics surrounding employment trends, employment retention and advancement in the workplace. The Success Summit also provides the PWG members with the tools needed to successfully lead a Community Action Project to help make a difference in their communities. For participants, the Success Summit is a valuable resource for advancing one’s position in the workplace and in life.
I also have four 30% off discount codes that can be used online (or in store, but there wouldn't be enough time to mail them to you, so you'd have to shop online to take advantage of this offer), the first 4 butterflies to email me get it! (My email is formatted for security purposes, remove spaces and substitute the word for the dot symbol, as well as the word AT for the @ symbol - tracy (AT) ascendingbutterfly (DOT) com) - Please note these promotion codes are not valid with any other coupon code or offer, and cannot be used toward the purchase of a gift card. The codes are valid from September 29th to October 2nd 2011 only.
Keep up with Naturalizer on Facebook and Twitter and you can also follow Dress for Success on Facebook and Twitter as well!
Our friends at Naturalizer will be back for a giveaway soon. But in the meantime I hope you will shop during the Friends of Naturalizer event to help support Dress for Success!
I have been riding the wave of some amazing energy lately! I've attended some really fun events, scored some killer deals, and even tried on a FAB designer dress 4 sizes smaller than I expected (over pants by the way) and it looked fierce!
Lately I have been feeling like I am walking on sunshine, what's the 'song in your head' today? We all know how much our thoughts and our self talk can affect our outlook! So too can our entertainment!
The positive energy in my life lately has been creating more positive energy, and more noticeably positive self talk. I am quite aware that the best way to sustain this positive energy is to continue to fill my thoughts with positive thoughts, be it by daily affirmations, meditation, and even by positive music!
Even finding the photo above made me smile!
Today's Words of Inspiration'
Use 'Today's Words of Inspiration' as a breathing meditation to still your mind, quiet your thoughts and bring in positive energy. As you inhale bring in only positive energy by saying in your mind, I breathe in positive energy (or you can say creative energy if that is what you wish to create more of) and as you exhale, Affirm out loud 'I'm walking on sunshine and today I vow to feel good!'
Spend some time each day enjoying focused breathing AND soul guided meditative visualization, in doing so, you can bring about profound and powerful changes in your life.
Visualize yourself manifesting something unique, guided by universal forces that emerge spontaneously from within your soul. Do this at least twice today and see how by taking a moment away from the hectic pace and breathing in positive energy and affirming what you wish to create, your thinking will become different.
Remember, attitude really does determine altitude.

Ascending Butterfly Valentine's Day Love Month Giveaways sponsored by:
Our First Ever Double Review and Giveaway - Two Amazing Brands, One Amazing Prize!
I am super excited about this collaboration! We are giving one winner an amazing haul from not just one, but two amazing brands! The prizes dove-tail together so nicely, we couldn't resist!
The Array Boot
I won these beauties in a facebook contest that Naturalizer was holding on their page and I loved them so much I asked if I could also give my readers a pair! Not only did they say yes, but provided us with the opportunity to offer you a $100 gift card of your own so you could pick the pair of your choice! Since I know some of you are already thinking toward Spring, you can pick up some super cute Spring styles as well!
About the Array Boot:
Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ - Knee-High Riding Boot Style
Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ - Round Closed Toe
Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ - Adjustable Buckle Wraps Around the Ankle
Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ - Rear Elastic Panel Ensures a Comfortable Fit
Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ - Smooth lining, cushioning insoles features N5 Comfort Elements
Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ - Non-slip outsole
Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ - 1 1/2 inch heel
Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ - original price:$149.00, currently on sale for $69.99
Chu Shu’s Silver Linings -
Put Some Silver in Your Step!
Silver Linings shoe liners will extend the life of shoes while keeping feet feeling fresh and clean. They contain a special silver-based technology that banishes odor day in and day out, and they'll add an extra layer of moisture-wicking comfort. Ultra-thin, they'll fit into almost any shoe. When they wear out, simply throw them out and insert a new pair - non-adhesive grip backing means no sticky residue to contend with, and one-size-fits-all means no trimming to fit!
Features:
Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ - Silver antimicrobial technology is EPA-registered and environmentally safe
Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ - Moisture-wicking material keeps feet dry
Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ - Ultra-thin to fit any snug shoes
Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ - Anti-slip backing grips shoes without the use of damaging adhesives
Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ - One-size-fits-most, no trimming required
My Take:
I can't think of a better combination than Naturalizer and Silver Linings! My new Array Boots are truly where fashion and function meet. They are super stylish AND super comfortable! I have wide calves and the rear elastic panel means they go up and stay up and do not choke my calves! I love the height, they are not too high, ensuring all day comfort, but do have enough of a heel to allow for both work and play!
I think the insoles are fab! They stay put, and can both prevent and eliminate any existing odor in your shoes. And many time with boots and heels, nylons and socks can sometimes make them un-comfortable. These insoles allow you to eliminate the need for socks or stockings and not have to worry about slippage, sliding forward so much your toes hurt or odor if your feet are prone to sweating in snug or warm shoes and boots!
Together they make an awesome combo that is sure to put a Spring in your step!
Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ -WIN IT! - Ascending Butterfly and our friends at Naturalizer and Chu Shu, want to help put the pep in your step! 1 winner will win a $100 Naturalizer Gift Certificate (this certificate does not include shipping and handling if you order online. The Gift Certificate CAN be used in stores, which means you wouldn't have to worry about the shipping and handling restrictions) AND the winner will also win a pair of Chu Shu insoles for their new shoes!
