Ombre hair has been such a huge trend for the past year. It's fresh, low-maintenance and oh-so-pretty. I unintentionally sort of have an ombre look happening when I grow my hair out. I typically dye my hair only every 4-5 months or so. So I let my natural mousy-brown roots grow out until they are a few inches long and then I get ...
Polka Dot Pretty (OOTD)
In between trying to wrap up some projects at work and getting in as many training sessions as I can, I know this week is going to be a busy one for me. I must admit that since I know I won't be working out for at least 9 days, I'm trying to pack in as many workouts as I can before we leave. I know I'll probably burn a ton of ...
Weekend Shopping: Charlotte Russe, Victoria’s Secret, ULTA
I did a little shopping today to use some coupons that were about to expire and also to find another hat for our trip that will cover my ears. EVERYTHING at Charlotte Russe was 50% off today! I couldn't believe it! I got this faux-fur collar sweater vest which is cute on its own or worn under a coat---you can let the fur part stick out ...
Day & Night: Friday Outfits
Hello ladies! Hope everyone had a great Friday! I must admit mine did not start off very well. I really do hate to whine about how I feel, but Friday my horrible stomach symptoms came back and so did the nausea...and add cramps to that (yeah, not good). I was not a happy camper that morning (especially since I did a super-intense ...
OOTD: Pants Again (Express Editors are Seriously the Best Dress Pants Ever)
Tonight is an off night for me (no workout) so I'm going to relax and finish my Christmas cards so I can mail them out tomorrow. I wore pants again today. Some days it's just more comfy. I know the Express editor pants have been a big hit lately so I'm trying to style them in different ways. Top- LOFT Cardigan- Express Pants- ...
Outfits Times Two & Back to Blogging
Oh...Hello! So nice to see you all on a Wednesday evening! Monday was just a brutal day for me which is why I didn't blog. After lunch at work I suddenly got these very sharp pains in my stomach and I was so nauseous and dizzy and just felt hot and cold flashes constantly. I ended up having to leave work early (in tears) ...
Exhausted—Sunday Cleaning
This morning, I started my day off right and had a session with my trainer. It was such a wonderful way to end my weekend. After that, I went grocery shopping---and though that's already a pretty good amount of effort for a Sunday, I had another task on my mind. Cleaning. Like a deep cleaning. Like a "we moved the couches" kind of ...
Weekend Shopping: Hunter Boots, Nordstrom Rack, Sephora & Banana Republic
I'm sipping a cup of mint tea after a long day of shopping with my H. We had an awesome day together---breakfast and lattes at Starbucks, shopping and then a late lunch/early dinner at Chuy's (a Mexican food place in our area.) Our shopping began at Nordstrom Rack so I could use our $50 Groupon. I got a dress by Andrew Marc. I think ...
Casual Friday: Black & White Stripes (OOTD)
Happy Friday everyone! I just got back from an awesome session with my trainer. He actually had a holiday special recently where he had an awesome deal on unlimited training sessions so I'm going to be working out pretty hard/regularly for the next 6 weeks. I'll miss the 9 days we are on our trip, but I'll more than make up for it. I ...
Wearing Neutrals: Mixing Brown, Black & Gray (OOTD) & Glitzy-Glam Purchase
Hello ladies! I am so excited because I came home today to a package I've been expecting! You may know that popular YouTube beauty gurus, sisters Elle and Blair have an online shop called glitzy-glam. I saw one of Blair's videos where she was showing a cute makeup bag and I thought it would be perfect for our upcoming trip so I ...
