Fitness February!



Well, this month went by exceedingly fast.. I cant believe that it is already February! Well, with a new month a head I believed it was only fitting for me to turn a new leaf and start my year off fresh.  For the next month, I will be spending allot of time focusing on healthy living and exercising and of course I am giving myself some incentive to help me complete my month of fitness mania.  I am not looking to lose weight, I am more looking to change up some eating and lifestyle habits and to exercise more frequently... I mean the amount of time I spend online shopping... I could obviously be working out..Whatever the case, if I feel I have accomplished some changes and made some improvements, I will treat myself to a brand new pair of beautiful JBrand Skinnies.  What more motivation could a girl need really.. 

In order to keep my blog posts fun and motivational I have a number of amazing, inspiring and incredible fitness experts and professionals lined up with interviews and tips to help keep everyone motivated!! Bring on #FitnessFeb!! 



Let's all stay motivated and work hard this month to see the results that we want!!

Bring on the Color

Well, January has clearly proven to be a very dreary and wet month.. however bring on the showers and you will see the flowers.. which means spring!! And how better to start off the spring season, but by adding color to your wardrobe and lots of it.  The previous fall fashion shows have proven that this spring there will be lots of color and some pretty amazing and shocking color combinations to try. From statement-making prints to cool new color combos, discover tons of new outfit ideas for the warm-weather season ahead.
  
My style tip: Stick to three colors max to avoid the girly, Rainbow Brite look. You might as well stand out of the crowd if you can!  


Spring runways were more colorful than the crowd at a Lady Gaga concert. Bold, solid-color pieces—like skirts, dresses and heels to accessories—make simple dressing look instantly glam!

Straight to the point

I have  become overly consumed with Pinterest.. via my laptop, Iphone.. kinda all the time.  Anyways, today I was basically inspired by the number of cute quotes I found online.  I was considering blowing some of them up and printing them and framing them for my room! Just a fun idea.  Enjoy! 


Have a happy Tuesday!

Updated work-wear

Well, the weekend has sadly come to an end and it is back to school, or work for some people.  If you are feeling the Monday morning blues and a bit dreary, try to spice up your office attire by mixing textures and prints.  If your office allows for a little more outfit creativity, take advantage. Stay warm with a pair of opaque tights and add interest with a bright print.  Bundle up stylishly by adding a sweater coat to a girlie dress; just cinch at the waist and add a pair of seasonal boots to complete your cozy-chic office apparel.  

Mix things up and have fun doing it!

My favorite smiles

Do you ever have the days when you feel like you need that extra burst of energy, or extra large coffee to help get you through your morning, let alone the entire day.. Well I am not the hugest coffee drinker..but here are some of my favorite things to watch, see, hear, enjoy you name it.. hopefully they help brighten your day too!

2. Favorite Sound.. Mr. Frank Sinatra, I don't know if you are into this style or era of music, but I find listening to Frank Sinatra's soothing voice so relaxing.. it is a perfect combo with a glass of red wine!  Some of my other favorite crooners are Norah Jones, Amy Winehouse, Micheal Bouble.

3.  Favorite Laugh..


I watch this repeatedly.. this and all of the other **** people say videos!

4.  Favorite inspirational song.. A little bit Stronger, performed by Sara Evans


I have currently listened to this song 12 times today..I guess it's one of those days?

5.  Favorite scent

Fresh Flowers
