MY PERSONAL STYLE: Neon
As someone who wears mostly black, white, and shades of taupe, it is rare that I venture beyond my style staples. With the current color trends sweeping retailers, I have decided to take a risk and add a little panache to my wardrobe with color… particularly neon!

IN THE KNOW: Quinoa qui·noa/ˈkēnwä/
For such a dainty seedling, quinoa really packs a punch! In addition to being a complete protein, quinoa contains high levels of magnesium, fiber, and cooper. It has even been linked to reducing the risk of cancer, diabetes, and artherosclerosis.
With easy to make recipes and a variety of ways to serve up this ancient grain, you too can enjoy the lasting benefits of the small, but mighty superfood!
