Grey Duster
Dusters are like the ultimate comfy cardigan that look really cool at the same time. This dark grey duster has pockets and is on the more fitted side. I paired it with an off-white tank top with subtle sparkly pinstripes, black leggings, and Uggs. Duster: Jane | Tank Top: Loft | Leggings: J.Crew | Boots: Ugg | Bracelet: Full Line Collection Since this duster is more fitted it created a sleek look with the tank top and leggings. Typically, I don’t like tops or sweaters that are so fitted on the arms because they make me feel claustrophobic, but I didn’t mind it with this duster. And best part is, of…

Body & Mind – 3 Month Update
Quick update for you all on my Body & Mind program in the Sweat App! I’ve been pretty good about staying on top of the workouts each week. Sometimes I do my workout before dinner and sometimes I do it later in the evening, closer to bed time. With the Body & Mind program being yoga based, it’s easier to do whenever and it’s not like I’m doing a hardcore workout right before bed. I took a break Christmas week because things were just crazy with the holidays plus I went to DC for a few days. Although I did walk a ton when I was in DC so I…

L’Oreal Rouge Signature Matte Colored Ink
If I had to choose between matte or glossy lip products, I almost always go with glossy. I like the look of gloss on my lips more than matte since most mattes are drying. With that being said, I still do like to try out matte lip products since they always look so good on others. Lucky for me L’Oreal and Influenster sent over some of the Rouge Signature Matte Colored Inks! I was sent 3 shades. From left to right: I Create, I Rule, and I Am Worth It. These lip inks are supposed to deliver a satin feel with the color impact of a liquid lipstick. They claim…

Restyled: Pink Ruffle +White Faux Stone Earrings
Last Monday I wore this pink ruffle top to work with marled style dress pants and white faux stone c-shaped earrings. I got a ton of compliments on my outfit – way more than I had expected which was nice. But the best part? My top feels like a sweatshirt! So I basically got complimented on how nice my outfit was and I was comfortable like I was in loungewear. The last time I wore this pink ruffle top on the blog I dressed it down with jeans and floral espadrille flats. This time, like I mentioned above, I wore it to work with dress pants and earrings.

A Trip Where The Wild Things Are In Missouri
There are plenty of good reasons to travel to Missouri, a state that brings you the Gateway Arch Museum, the fantastic Silver Dollar City amusement park, and Mark Twain’s home, now kept as a museum. However, the richness of this midwestern state truly lies with the wild things, both in the national parks it has to offer as well as to the local tradition of cultivating and preserving it all. Link Take a trip on the green side When it comes to visiting a city, visiting at least one park is always recommended.

American Home by Yankee Candle Fire Log
I, like many others, love the smell of a fire wood burning. Fireplaces are a love of mine and pretty much the only good thing about camping is a camp fire. Back in the early fall Pine Mountain reached out to me and asked if I wanted to try out their American Home by Yankee Candle Fire Logs in the scent “Fresh Balsam Fir”. I, of course, said yes and thought the logs would be so great in my new fireplace in my townhouse. Fast forward a few months and it’s finally cold enough to have the fireplace going. But, I decided not to light the logs in my own fireplace because…
