It's kind of my thing. I say it to everyone - males and females. It's a lot of fun to see peoples reactions to me telling them to 'Have a Super Sparkly Day' - especially the men. It started Christmas of 2012 when I was sitting in my mom's living room reading with the TV on in the background when all of a sudden I hear my seven year old brother say 'Have a Super Sparkly Day' and seconds later the girl on the TV says the same thing.
Citi Card stared airing a commercial about this mom who is going shopping for her daughter for Christmas and she's kind of stressed out and not really in the mood for shopping. The girl behind the counter who is ringing the mom up hands her her purchase and with a huge smile and a peppy attitude tells the mom to 'Have a Super Sparkly Day'. It's a funny commercial but even funnier, was hearing my youngest brother quote the commercial in his own mock peppy high pitch voice. Ever since then, I adopted the phrase and although I can't take credit for starting it, I am definitely taking credit for keeping it alive!
The 'Sparkly' phrase has already become a common and often used phrase among my friends and family - even my boyfriend has adopted the phrase, although he would never admit it. He was very much against it at first but it's catchy and contagious so he didn't stand a chance. It has also caught on at work. It started in just my department but I worked my sparkly magic and it's quickly spreading throughout other departments. I can't lie, it's pretty exciting! The best part - I even have men in my office signing off their emails with the phrase... Ok, just one man.
Every time I tell my parents to 'Have a Super Sparkly Day' they both respond with 'Shine Bright Like a Diamond' which is a Rihanna reference - my parents are so hip. One of my brothers ends every phone conversation with me by shouting 'SUPER SPARKLY' into the phone and then hanging up... It cracks me up every time - never gets old. Every morning when I come into work one of my male co-workers greets me with 'Good Morning Sparkle' - that never gets old either. I'm telling you guys... It's totally catching on!

So now that you know the how, when, where, and why... I encourage you to go out and embrace the sparkle in you and continue to spread the sparkle love! I know it sounds crazy, cheesy and ridiculous but I promise you, you will get lots of smiles and laughs from it - from both yourself and others as well!
SUPER SPARKLY!
SUPER SPARKLY!
