It's here!! Family Matters is out now.
Out of all the hottest trends for shoes this Fall, motorcycle boots are our favorite trend of all. We can’t stop gushing over these Born Marxia Motorcycle Boots. I absolutely love these boots. I mean just look at how cool they are! They are more amazing in person than they are in pictures. These boots…
It’s the most wonderful time of the year! At least in terms of fashion, it is. We’ve all had a couple of weeks to ogle the latest fall trends, and believe me- I’ve been ogling away at hot looks like brocade, leather, even plaid. (And I LOVE how Downton Abbey it all is. Eat, drink,…
We recently discovered some “green” baby products that we think you will be happy to hear about. Earth Day was on April 22 this year, so naturally, we received a LOT of pitches for eco-friendly products. Live Clean Baby is at the top of our list this year for “green” bath & body products that…
Today I’m sporting some Chinos from Lands End! Nice, right? I accepted the Lands’ End Chino Challenge and was allowed to pick a color and style choice from Lands End.com. After much consideration (because there were so many style and color choices!) I decided to go with Women’s Petite Fit 2 Stretch Chino Trousers in…
I started The Dukan Diet on June 19th. Just 8 weeks later, I’ve lost 18 pounds! I did a photo shoot on June 18th, wearing a pair of size 28 Yummie Tummie Slimming Jeans. They were a little bit snug and looking back now I think I must have been poured into them… I put…
Let me start by saying that I can be pretty lazy about makeup removal sometimes (I know, it’s a terrible habit.) That’s why I was so excited for the opportunity to review the new Yes To Cucumbers Eye Makeup Remover Pads. Anything I can use that makes makeup removal a cinch is a must for…
When I set out to lose weight and share my journey with my readers, I did not expect to receive more hate mail than encouraging notes… Apparently people’s perception of being HEALTHY has been totally skewed by the enormous amount of overweight and obese people in this country. I didn’t think I would need to…
Who doesn’t immediately think of summer breezes and sandy beaches when they smell coconuts? I don’t know about you, but I wouldn’t mind thinking of summer all year long! With Organix new line of Coconut Milk Hibiscus collection of products, you can do just that! Let the lightweight, floral aroma of Coconut Milk Hibiscus carry…
I did it! I’m down to 119lbs! Oh my goodness, if someone had told me a month ago I was going to lose 9 pounds in 3 weeks, I would have thought they were nuts…. Seriously, if I had known it was going to be this easy, I would have done this a YEAR AGO!!!…
Sorry for the lack of updates. For 5 days (day 12 – Day 17) I was on mandatory bed-rest with Cellulitis (deep tissue infection similar to flesh eating bacteria) from a tick bite. I had to have my leg elevated and it was swollen and in an excruciating amount of pain. Definitely, hands-down, the most…
I’m usually nervous about wearing anything WHITE, mostly because I have 2 kids under five years old and anything white doesn’t usually stay white for very long… The other reason is, black hides imperfections, so naturally white must make them more obvious! I’ve always read that if you are pear shape or your bottom half…
Well I had an interesting day yesterday… I had to drop everything and run to the doctors because my leg was swollen up like the Good Year blimp and I was in so much pain I couldn’t walk! Turns out I have a horrid case of Cellulitis. Despite it’s name, it does NOT have anything…
So I wonder to myself…. Can I drink too much water??? I had 2.5 quarts yesterday on a PP day and I’m still 124 lbs, although I don’t feel bloated… Yet… My period is due on Friday. (Sorry for the TMI ladies!) I usually gain 3-5 pounds the week leading up to my period. Perhaps…
I started this diet on Tuesday and here it is Saturday already. I’ve lost 4 pounds in 5 days which feels like an unbelievable achievement to me. Attack Phase: Day 1 – I weighed in at 127.8 lbs (12 lbs over goal weight) Day 2 – I weighed in at 125.0 lbs (10 lbs over…
Today I started the Dukan Diet in hopes of losing the last 15 pounds from my second pregnancy. When I was offered the opportunity to review the Dukan Diet, I was skeptical and a little hesitant. “Another diet?!” I thought to myself… I didn’t know if I was ready to take on such an extensive,…
This top has all my favorite colors to wear in it… I love the print and the fit. It’s a Fall top, I know, but I love it! I got it last Fall from Old Navy and this is the first time I’ve worn it!
