It turns out the snow weather.com predicted is mostly a rainy mess. It’s dark, wet and drab outside. All I want to do in between training clients and teaching classes is take a nap.
To sparkly things up a bit and in honor of being the blogger of the month at Sparkly Soul Inc., today I’m giving away two fun headbands to one reader.
Being the blogger of the month for Sparkly Soul Inc. during the month of November has been so much fun! It was a good month to be on the receiving end of their kindness, especially with all the marathon chaos. (How are we still in November? The NYCM debacle seems so far away!)

Here’s how to win: Leave a comment below telling me what cheers you up on a rainy day.
Also be sure to follow both Sparkly Soul Inc and FCITC on instagram (my new favorite thing).

Fuzzy slippers, a romantic comedy and a mug of tea are my rainy day go-tos!
Sparkles definitely cheer me up! And a good work out. 🙂
What cheers me up on a rainy day?—A good yoga session. I like the background noise that stormy weather can provide when getting my vinyasa on! 🙂
Snuggling with my dog on the sofa with tea and a good book during the day, then a funny movie and wine at night!
hot chocolate with extra marshmallows!!! and a great workout 😉
I love making a big pot of soup, cooking up some homemade rolls and watching some football! (This only really works on rainy Sundays, but I love it.)
Awesome giveaway! Cuddling on the couch in sweatpants with a book cheers me up on a rainy day.
Can one have too many Sparkly Soul headbands? One gray days like today, nothing beats cuddling up on the couch under warm blankets with a cup of tea and reading.
Anything sparkly cheers me up on a rainy day, so I would absolutely love to win a Sparkly Soul headband! And rain isn’t so bad. It prepares me to get sweaty during a great workout and after the workout, when leaving the gym, it cools me down!
A glass of wine, chinese good, and my cuddly cat cheers me up!
I actually like rainy days 🙂
But I do love spending them curled up with my cats and a blanket and a book!
Love sparkly soul headbands!! Coming home to my dog cheers me up on a rainy day–oh, and wine.
Drinking a mug of hot chocolate or tea and curling up in a fleece blanket
During the day, bright lipstick makes a rainy day a little less drab… at night, sweatpants and Netflix! I like to embrace the bad weather and my laziness 🙂
Some upbeat music and a good sweaty workout cheers me up on a rainy day! And these sparkly headbands would certainly help as well!
I don’t mind rainy days during the day because I think it makes all the colors look so pretty! However, when its dark – ugh. I like to snuggle up with a good book and some hot cocoa so I can pretend I’m some place else! 🙂
These are so fun! A good workout never fails to cheer me up. 🙂

Cool giveaway! I’ve seen Sparkly Soul popping up all over the place, so I definitely want to hop on the bandwagon. On a rainy day (seriously, NYC? At least it’s better than snow), I cheer myself up by drinking hot tea and watching TV marathons; I watched a ton of Downton Abbey today. 🙂
I love anything pink, sparkly, or pearls on a dreary day! Also, I love to drink tea! Today was a gray day outside and I drank a few cups of Candy Cane Lane tea. Yum!
a delicious bowl of homemade soup or chili, glass of wine and my most comfortable pj’s… all snuggled up with my hubby of course 🙂
A good movie, a warm blanket & some hot coco 🙂
Seinfeld + my dogs cheer me up on a rainy day!
Today, an amazing sweat session at Flywheel then followed by a yummy latte at Joe’s – it is hard to stay grumpy surrounded by so much good!
On days I don’t want to leave the apt I love doing a full body workout at home! In February I had back surgery to treat a (two year) disc herniation. It was horrific! No longer do I stress my body and push it beyond its max. Rather I implement planks, push-ups, glute lifts and barre work to emphasize a mind body connection…my mind sparkles with ideas and so does my body when I wear my sparkly soul!!!
I love to wear something bright or sparkly on a dreary day!
Sparkles DEFINITELY cheer me up on a rainy day! And a good sweat session….followed by tea and a nap! 🙂
Bright workout clothing cheers me up on a cold, rainy day!
To cheer me up on a rainy day I like to go for a run then take a hot shower, curl up on the couch with my dog & a cup of tea and watch tv or read a book!
a good book and a bath!
Honestly, a run in the rain usually cheers me up, once I get myself out the door! I love running in the rain, so freeing. Then a hot shower and warm pjs. And wine. Not going to lie here, wine always cheers me up!

Good excuse to cozy up to a blanket and a good book!
On rainy days, I love spending time in bed with a good book.
If I wake up and it’s a gloomy day, I am always craving a Venti Starbucks drink. That definitely brightens my mood. A piece of TJs chocolate mochi ice cream usually does the trick too. I savor every bite. When in doubt? Curl up with the pup and watch a great movie 🙂
A great run always makes a rainy day better!
Tea, a cozy blanket, my dog and a great friend always cheer me up on a rainy day!

A good hot yoga session followed by some green tea and movies by the fire!
Some sort of yoga usually. It used to be hot yoga, but since I haven’t found a great hot yoga place in DC it has been regulated to any type of yoga.
seeing my daughters smiling face always cheers me up when the weather is not good!
Snuggling under the blanket on the couch with my husband while we watch TV. It’s my happy place. 🙂

A sparkly soul headband always peps up a dreary day! Particularly in between blowouts…instant polish and sparkle. It’s like a little dose of princess dress up for grownups. Wearing a purple one right now…
I love these headbands! On a cold rainy day I enjoy cooking something comforting, like a soup or stew
I dislike the rain so much you’d think that I was made out of sugar. However, there’s nothing like coming home from work to my apartment on a cold and rainy day, taking off my rain boots (or snow boots in yesterday’s case) in the hallway before I walk in and hearing my dog jumping around, shaking with glee, and making these absurd little noises knowing that someone’s about to come home to her. It puts a huge smile on my face every time and makes me forget that I’m freezing and wet and that I’ve just spent the entire walk home muttering to myself about wanting to move back down South.
Lounging on the couch with a glass of wine and a good movie cheers me up on rainy days.
Cuddling up with my two dogs and watching something fun and dramatic like Glee or Gossip Girl while drinking hot cocoa!
A good cup of coffee
Reality tv on my DVR!
my daughters can always cheer me up on a rainy day!
Wearing bright colors! Unless it’s a horrendous downpour, I usually will run in light rain but I always wear bright clothing to ensure the cars/pedestrians can see me. Amazing how neon pink/yellow/orange makes you feel brighter 🙂
Great giveaway! Wine cheers me up a rainy day. And every day.
Nothing cheers me up like the smiles of my two little kiddos. It’s amazing what they can come up with as entertainment on a rainy day!

A cute movie and some good soup!
Reading blogs cheers me on a rainy day 🙂
Getting to wear a cute hat cheers me up on a rainy day if i have to be out in it. If i can be inside, then my warm fuzzy blanket and a good book cheer me up just fine 🙂

A chai latte or my current fav, Peppermint mocha!

Dreary days are always made better by hot coffee, a cozy blanket and a good book. Or if I’m just being lazy, a spin workout will kick me back into gear! I’m pretty sure those sparkly headbands would brighten any day 🙂
Trader Joe’s Peppermint Joe Joe’s and watching reruns of my favorite HBO shows on demand! My 4th grade daughter who loves playing soccer and running would totally love the Sparkly Souls… I don’t have long hair, but I could see how they would be helpful to her! Thanks!
Pumpkin Spice Latte! And a cozy blanket!
Great giveaway! Oversized sweatshirts, 25 calorie hot chocolate, and a full DVR are my favorite rainy day comforts.
A good, warm coffee cheers me up on a rainy day!
In college, my roommates and I would always use a rainy day as an excuse to invite other people over to our place! That way we would share in others company, without setting a foot outside.
Coffee dates with old friends cheer up rainy days for me. And of course anything sparkly, too!

Oh man. I feel like I should say something sporty but honestly the best thing on a rainy day is a good book, a good cup of tea and my couch. 🙂

I love curling up in bed with a good book.
Couch time with my four-legged children I might feel anxious about not being outside but they teach me to enjoy the moment. Sometimes happiness is sitting still and listening to yourself.
