We all know I am a fan of Universal Standard, a brand that has democratized fashion by offering cool style from quality materials in sizes 00-40. Universal Standard has partnered with brands such as J. Crew and Rodarte to push them to extend their size range but now they’ve partnered with a brand that makes… Continue Reading adidas x Universal Standard Review
As I shared on Instagram, new year same me. I have no goals to be a different person in 2020, but continue good habits I’ve already adopted and each day look for a way to be a bit better than the day prior. I am continuing to go to the gym almost every weekday morning. … Continue Reading Updating My Fitness Wardrobe for the New Year
When I was planning our New Year’s Eve getaway to Lake Anna, I knew the dress code would be loungewear. We planned on making all meals at the house, spending a lot of time reading, playing board games, napping, cooking, and snuggling as families on the couches watching movies and watching the ball drop at… Continue Reading Soma Loungewear for a Cozy New Year

These are all casual looks as my nicer ensembles got captured and shared as true outfit posts. What I wear on weekends, early mornings, when I’m sick, and when… Continue Reading What I Wore Off the Blog: Casual Looks Edition

One that doesn’t cover my belly, one that rides up on occasion. And I love it too. I felt fierce. I was so sick all week… Continue Reading Weekend Reads #56
A year ago, I was in the worst shape of my life. At 5’3” I was a bit over 200 lbs. I had back pain, knee pain, and occasionally got migraines. My allergies were terrible, I was always tired and felt as though I was living life in a fog. I’ve never been athletic, but… Continue Reading I Started Weight Training One Year Ago: The Results
