Happy Halloween! We made these pumpkins at work on Friday. I made the Tory Burch logo pumpkin and when I was done I realized the logo was upside down. A coworker of mine and I love TB and she couldn't be there for the pumpkin carving so I decided to make it in her honor! Hope everyone has a lovely Sunday! If you missed my weekend haul, you ...

Weekend Haul (Oh Yes, It’s a Haul)!!!
My feet are still burning. Oh yes ladies, I shopped for a solid 6 hours today with my husband. Bless his heart, he was such a trooper. We started off at the Galleria where Kevin got a beautiful coat from Zara for our trip to Paris. It's a very nice, long, black wool jacket that's heavy enough for winter. It's gorgeous! ...
OOTD: Black & Blush Pink, Sephora F&F & American Eagle Jacket
This week just flew by. On Tuesday I saw my trainer and last night my H and I went to see Jonsi (he's the lead singer of Sigur Ros, we love him!) If you haven't heard anything be Sigur Ros, I recommend checking them out. They are a band from Iceland and have a very unique sound. We even played their music at our wedding. You ...
OOTD: Zara Black Dress & Cooking Healthy Meals
Today I decided that H and I would try to cook 2 new meals a week. I got this awesome cook book from my amazing friend Ed for my birthday called "Eating Well Serves Two" and I must admit I haven't ever really used it. I would like to learn how to make yummy, healthy meals now so when we have kids I can just whip it up ...
Weekend Finds & Lauren Conrad Style Book Review
Happy Sunday everyone! Today Kevin and I went to Rice Village to try and find a coat for him for our trip. We didn't have any luck at any of the stores we checked out, so we'll probably have to try the Galleria next week. It's more difficult to find stylish, heavier coats here in Houston since it doesn't get that cold here, even in the ...
Weekend Shopping: Boots & Coats
This morning I went and got my hair cut by the lovely Stephanie at Cutloose (click here to read her Motivation Mondays piece!) She did such a wonderful job and my hair feels lighter and so much better than before. You sometimes don't realize how "heavy" your hair gets when you're growing it out. My layers needed some major length chopped off. I ...
Products I Won’t Repurchase (& What You Can Use Instead)
Sometimes I see a product that looks exciting and then when I use it it's just OK. Most of you ladies know that I am pretty consistent when I like something. I will repurchase the same products over and over because I know they deliver the results I'm looking for. I would never discover new HG products if I didn't try new things, but not ...
OOTD: Navy Blues
Hello ladies! Sorry this post is so late tonight. I just got back from working out with my trainer. I feel both exhausted and exhilarated. I also did some cardio today which was great. I really have to work on building my endurance. Skinny is no fun when you're weak. I decided to bring my iPhone with me to use as an iPod for the cardio portion ...
Comments on Online Negativity & Comment Moderation
I swore I'd never do a post like this. I'm hesitant to even write this but I feel compelled to. In the past few months, I've noticed a lot of bloggers and YouTubers doing posts and/or videos about the negative comments they get. I even discovered a forum called "Guru Gossip" that was created solely to make negative and sometimes ...
OOTDs & MakeUp Storage Re-Do
I've had this dull pain in my right lower abdomen all day :( I was supposed to see my trainer tonight but I can see now that's not going to happen. I'd hate to waste a session being in pain so I'm going to wait and see if this goes away. Hopefully it's nothing. On Sunday, I went a little cleaning and organizing crazy. I always have these ...
