Give Me a Month!

Source

Every woman knows that sad moment when you go to put on a pair of your jeans and they won't zip up. Or even worse, when you can't fit them over your thighs or butt.  You start asking yourself, when is the last time I wore these jeans?  Did I dry them too much? Naw boo! You've gained weight. Face it! All of those chicken wings, cookies, ice cream, cheese fries and wine have finally settled in your thighs.  Or maybe it's just me.  I can't fit anything! I tried on four pairs of jeans last Friday and none of them fit.  The first two pairs I could get on but I couldn't zip them up and sit down comfortably.  The other two didn't even have a chance of reuniting with the top of my thighs. It was a sad morning.  Thank God for jeggings! They saved my life that day.

Most women would say, oh its ok.  Those jeans are old. I need a new pair of jeans anyway.  But not I!  Not anymore.  Excuses are monuments of nothingness people! I can't buy new jeans and I love the ones I own.  Especially when I could fit them six months ago. Now three months ago when I couldn't fit most of my slacks, I was fine with that. But not my denim. Nope.


I'm clowning about my clothes but seriously, I have to get on it.  All of my bad habits are starting to catch up with me.  Eating and sleeping, not eating a proper breakfast, and skipping some of my workouts.  I've been a disgrace! lol Usually I've had a goal to work towards like a 1/2 marathon or a 1/4 marathon.  Instead of racing to the finish line, I'm racing to the closet. I'm on a mission: Get in those jeans!  Creative right! I have one month to fit into my boot cut jeans comfortably.  Since I'm putting it on my blog, I can't be slacker, and everyone would know.  I will keep ya'll updated.  Hopefully my decision to get back on the workout wagon will encourage someone else to do the same.  Remember ladies, you aren't living up to your fly potential (you like that? lol) if you aren't taking care of your body. Start today!  Get a friend or family member on board while you're at it.

Stay fit and fab!

Pleats Galore

Big pleats, small pleats! Long pleats, short pleats!  I love it all for Fall!

Fall is here and pleated skirts have caught my eye. I know pleated skirts were deemed a spring/summer trend but I think they are more appropriate for the Fall!  A fabulous pleated skirt with tights and booties would complete your fall wardrobe.

Polyvore has a great variety of pleated skirts.  I'm in love with this jade one. Jade is a nice color for the fall.  Bright enough for a lively look, but since it's a shade of green it is not too overbearing for the Fall. 


Leather pleats are fabulous!
Ms. Hilson looks nice with her gray pleats.
The bigger pleats are fabulous too! 

How do you feel about pleated skirts? 


Happy Autumn! 

I Wish....

Someone would find it in their heart and huge check book to give me this coat.  This is a bad coat.

Happy Monday!

The Wait Is Over

Ohio fashionistas are estatic because zara.com is here! Now we too can partake in the goodness that is Zara.  Yay! The wait is over! The wait is over! *in my Rihanna voice*.  I need to stay away, but I won't.  Next they (who ever they is) needs to build a store in the buckeye state.

My boo Katelyn feels my excitement! I was writing this post and saw we had the same idea. Check out her infamous blog at The Fabulous Duo!  

Happy Saturday!

NYFW...

Is here! One of my absolute favorite lines kicked off the week this morning, BCBG MAXAZRIA

Here are a few of my favorite looks.






Our economy is in shambles. The GOP debates and the POTUS address makes it hard to smile about our nations future.  Everyone has their own agenda.  *glances at garments above and sighs*.   Fashion never lets me down.  LOL!

Check out NYFW page for the latest updates this week.
