Hanging out in Curvy Fit 4-Way Stretch Bootcut Jeans from Chadwicks with my favorite white blouse from Zamrie! These jeans from Chadwicks are pretty darn comfortable. High enough waist to hold in the “mom belly”, but not so high that they look like “mom jeans”. Affordable priced at $40 a pair and Chadwicks is always…
Curtains are back in style and more affordable than ever!

I’ve been getting a little more personal in my posts lately because I’m at a point in my life where my attitude is “what you see is what you get.” I don’t have the energy or the desire to make sure all my pictures are perfect or photoshopped, make sure I only share the outfits…
My Living Room Makeover PART 2 – Quatrefoil Moroccan Painted WallpaperFirst off, I love wallpaper. I grew up in an eclectic bungalow that my parents built themselves in the 70’s that was primarily of rough-cut lumber. There wasn’t a single wall in our entire house that could be painted, wallpapered or anything. You also had…
As a mom, I find myself being an overachiever. I try to wear all the hats, put lots of things on my plate, get everything done, plan too many projects at once and be superwoman. One of the things I’ve always struggled with is making sure I schedule ‘me time’. I feel guilty taking time…
When buying plus size lingerie, it is important to keep in mind the aspect of fitting. Proper fitting is the key to comfort when it comes to lingerie, especially if it plus size. Many designer brands are now looking into the aspect of combining high quality design as well as comfort when it comes to…
I posted this today’s outfit on my instagram account last week. I was anxious to put together an outfit to go with my new Blu Bijoux fashion jewelry from Max & Chloe. I’m absolutely in LOVE with this Blu Bijoux Fuchsia Pyramid Necklace and this awesome Blu Bijoux Silver Wide Diamond Link Stretch Bracelet from…
The Fashionable Housewife teamed up with A Few Goody Gumdrops recently to take part in the Maxx Style Scout Blogger Challenge. We were given a $100 gift card to shop at T.J. Maxx (our FAVORITE store!) and were sent on a mission to create a designer outfit for less based on the spring trend of…

Trends To Look For This…
My go-to eyeshadow palette for the past few months has been Urban Decay Naked 2 Palette. It’s part of my 15 minute, everyday makeup routine and my results are always stellar. (At least I think so!) If you follow me on Instagram and check out my outfits, you see I’m always always wearing a mix…
I got the opportunity to review the Infiniti Pro by Conair™ Auto-Rotating Curling Iron (model 202R) and my results turned out pretty good. I rarely use curling irons. Okay that’s a lie. I NEVER use curling irons. Before I received this one to review, I pretty much hadn’t used a curling iron on my hair…
Mint green and coral are two very popular spring colors right now. So many different ways to wear this color combo and today I think I hit the nail right on the head with this one. I layered a Neon Coral Sweater ($32/Gap) with a mint green leopard print blouse (similar here) underneath. I thought…

If you’re anything like me, you probably have trouble staying motivated and sticking to your fitness routine. Every day I come up with a bunch of excuses (to myself) of why I don’t need to workout that day or why I have something else to do that’s more important. I’m too busy today, I don’t…
Ready to get zesty? As you know I recently gave my master bedroom a room makeover for under $200. I really spiced things up with a gorgeous blend of yellow and gray which is a super trendy color combination for home decor right now. Although the yellow bedspread was an amazing improvement over the brown…
