Fitness Edition – Reevaluating Goals and Resolutions

Outfit + Sneakers: c/o ProPlayer As Fall rolls in, it’s a great time to reevaluate any goals and/or resolutions you may have put in place at the beginning of the year. Check out mine here. It’s also a good time for a fresh start if you’re looking for an excuse to start something new. Or to form a new habit [post on this here]. For me, it’s a new goal, fitness. I swear I try to work out as often as possible. But working out can be exhausting for me, it always has been. Commuting to the city takes up…

Creating New Habits – I’m Back And Better Than Ever

Creating New Habits – I’m Back And Better Than Ever

Wow, what a week off will do for you. Since I started my blog over three years ago I’ve been strict with posting on Instagram and my site. Monday, Wednesday and Friday’s [like clockwork] have mostly been my normal post dates until recently. Aiming to change it up a bit I’ve gone off this schedule and have been trying to listen to you, my readers, more. But still, I rarely miss a week. Giving out advice on fashion and life can sometimes put you into interesting situations. As much as I wanted to go, go, go last week, I decided…

Dealing With A Bad Day – When Nothing Goes Right, Go Left

Dealing With A Bad Day – When Nothing Goes Right, Go Left

It’s not a bad life, just a bad day.  Happy Friday! I was basically on the brink of a nervous breakdown every day this week. So I thought it would be great to talk about how to deal with a bad day. Or a bad week, month ect. Because they do happen, even if you’re living your best life, like I am in these photos. I’m really good at brushing things that bother me off. But sometimes the littlest thing (like when I spilled coffee all over my vanity yesterday) sets me off. It’s like the straw that breaks the…

10 Things About Me – Bet You Didn’t Know…

We all know life isn’t just the pretty pictures we see on Instagram. So, I thought it would be great to share some real life things about me! I’m sticking to ten today that I get asked the most about. 10 things about me that I bet you didn’t know… I’m an only child. Yep, just me! Most people find it hard to believe because I don’t have any of the negative traits associated with being an only child. Although, I’ll admit, I hate sharing! Sports. I grew up doing competition cheerleading and gymnastics (floor tumbling specifically). I stopped when I…

Girl Power – Why It’s Not Only About Girls

Girl Power – Why It’s Not Only About Girls

Girl Power Tee c/o Emax Tees I never felt that because I was a girl, there were certain things I shouldn’t do. When I was five years old I took down part of the child gate in my kitchen with a screwdriver after watching my dad take down the other one. He didn’t say, girls don’t do that. In fact I think he was so impressed he encouraged me to take the entire thing off! HA! Or how about “only men take out the garbage?” When I worked at CVS when I was sixteen, I had to take out the…
