Last week I had the opportunity to take a couple of days off from work and accompany Coach on a trip to Breckenridge. I hadn't been to Breck in years and I had never been in the summertime. What a totally different experience!
The town of Breckenridge is positively charming. The weather was spectacular and wild flowers were everywhere you looked! I could not stop taking photos of the lupine, the amazing poppies and fox glove. We definitely don't get flowers like that in North Texas!!!
To me, the best part of my trip was the relaxation, the shopping and the food! Not a chain store or restaurant in sight (I think there may be a Starbucks on Main Street, IDK. I don't drink coffee so I'm not on the look out for those kinds of things!).
A couple of my favorite shops were: http://magicalscraps.com/, Marigolds Farmhouse Funk & Junk, Ruby Jane's (also check out their gorgeous loft available for rent!) and Valley Girl.
At Magical Scraps I found the most wonderful bath and body, home and lifestyle brand, Margot Elena. I am now officially obsessed with the Lollia line. The gorgeous packaging pulled me in but the fragrances are spectacular. I bought the Always in Rose eau de parfum and the Dream perfumed luminary (fancy for "candle"). I also need to check out their Library of Flowers line. www.margotelena.com
One of the days I took the gondola up to Peak 8 and had a incredible day at the Infinity Spa at the Grand Colorado. https://grandcolorado.com/ I had an 12 noon massage but arrived in plenty of time to use the steam room and the grotto.
After my massage, I totally took advantage of the relaxation room and got super comfy in my luxurious robe and sumptuious blanket. When I say I took advantage I mean I slept in my lounger for over an hour.
Because this is Colorado, the spa uses products "blessed by Mother Nature herself" and I bought some very rich shea butter hand creams from Farmhouse Fresh Goods in the Rainbow Road and Sweet Tea scents. https://www.farmhousefreshgoods.com/index.html
