I've been noticing that some of my skirts feel loose on me lately....and I haven't really lost weight (at least I don't think so) but they seem to just not be as fitted as they used to be. While I'm happy my fitness is paying off and my body is getting more toned, I don't want to have to buy new skirts! Maybe I can safety pin or clip them so ...

Shopping: Target, Zara, MAC
I usually post these on weekends, but we were so busy cleaning on Saturday and I didn't feel great Sunday so I decided to post this during the week. I picked up a few things last Thursday when I went to the Galleria mall and a few things are from my wonderful mother in law. Let's start with my lovely gifts from my mother in law. I was sad because ...
OOTD: The (Hot) Pink Skirt
It's nearly nine at night and I'm still awake after a grueling workout. It was one of those workouts that you almost didn't think you'd ever be able to finish without (gross) vomiting, but at the end of the workout I felt great (and I definitely ate some delicious dinner from Zoe's Kitchen which was awesome). I'm really enjoying the extra time my H ...
Weekend Shopping: The Pink Skirt
I started my Saturday right with an AM workout. It's so gross in Houston today---hot, sticky...yuck! The Final Four is happening here and it's a shame the weather is so sticky when there are so many people in town. I did a little shopping today, but sadly, I haven't found the perfect spring shoes yet. I am SO over shoe shopping right now ...
OOTD: Sunday Brunch
Since we missed Christmas with family this year, H and I invited his parents to Sunday brunch at this great local place where they've got everything from bacon and omelets to pastries and chocolate-covered strawberries. I wore my favorite top from Target. I bought it right before our trip to Paris and I wore the heck out of it while we were gone ...
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 ...
OOTD: Black & White and It Feels Alright
Today I went with tried and true black and white. I wore my new White House Black Market long cardigan which was only worn for a short while as it was once again blazingly hot outside. It was a nice, simple combo...put together without a lot of effort. That's what I love about dresses. There's something wonderful about having to put on just one ...
OOTD: Casual Friday, Airy Cream Dress
Today I wore for the first time my cream tunic dress from Zara. It's just very airy and flow-y and comfortable (and the soft, breezy cotton is perfect for the sweltering heat.) My husband told me I look like fairy princess in this dress. He also called me a "luminescent angel." Awwwww. Dress- Zara Bag- Kate Spade Flip Flops- GUESS by Marciano ...
My Laptop is Growing Old & OOTD- Zara Striped Dress, Part 2
Dear Dell Laptop, You were my sun, you were my earth. I know it's time to let you go but it hurts so bad. We've been together since my post-grad program where I used you for everything from writing papers, g-chatting all day and Skyping with my (at the time) long-distance boyfriend (now husband.) Oh Dell Laptop, how I long for the ...
