Growing up on the beach it is fair to say that I pretty much love anything that has a nice nautical vibe going for it. I also love old fashioned 40′s inspired outfits and when you combine the two looks I personally think you get something completely classic. Almost always these looks for me involve the colors red, white, and blue and have some kind of stripe going on. I also love polka dots but that is for another post. Give some of these looks a try this summer for an effortless, […] Continue reading →
This weekend we headed back up to Burlington since my sister was graduating from college! My parents decided to rent a condo in the nearby town of Stowe, Vermont so Friday morning we all piled in the car and headed up north for the weekend. My sister’s graduation wasn’t until Sunday afternoon so we had all weekend to just hang out and enjoy the fun atmosphere the area has to offer. Friday night we went to American Flatbread in Burlington which specializes in homemade […] Continue reading →
Hey guys! Sorry for being MIA yesterday, it was a pretty hectic day at work to say the least and then I had to go directly to my yoga teacher training so I just never had the time to write. It really bums me out when I don’t have the time to write in a day though since it really has become such a way for me to relax and sometimes it is the only time in my day when I am really getting to focus on things that really matter to me. Anyway today is hopefully going to be [...] […] Continue reading →
If you haven’t tried my deck of cards circuit workout you really need to! Find a time sometime this week or weekend to set aside about an hour to an hour and a half and I promise you will be crawling your way back to your car it is such a good workout. My favorite part about this workout is that it keeps things creative while really taking you outside of your comfort zone. In my own personal fitness experience I have always gravitated to the types of fitness that I feel comfortable in […] Continue reading →
This weekend was loaded with lots of fun things and the beautiful weather only added to it. I am loving these 80 degree days in May and have even started my annual summer bathing suit search via victorias secret. Everyone has their thing that they tend to have a little too much of…shoes, purses, jeans…mine just happens to be bathing suits. I love all the bright colors and I do justify my obsession with the fact that I live in a beach town and pretty much live in a bathing suit […] Continue reading →
On Mothers Day there are probably a million different places where you could bring your Mom for a full on sugar coma brunch, but why not try something different this year and start your Moms day off right with a delicious and healthy at home brunch. Maybe consumed after you treat her to a nice morning hot yoga workout at a local studio? I’m not a Mom but that sounds like a perfect morning to me, and I’m pretty sure my healthy and fit Mom would agree. I have compiled a bunch of […] Continue reading →
Is anyone else out there as obsessed with The Game of Thrones as I am?! I watched the first 20 minutes of the first episode when the show began and since I am a big baby when it comes to scary things (ex: I strongly believe that ET is one of the scariest characters ever created) I immediately told Mike to shut it off after the scary white walkers showed up and refused to ever watch it again. Then a few weeks ago Mike was watching one of the episodes from Season Two and I got totally hooked. […] Continue reading →
I am the queen of creative salads! Since some form of a salad usually takes up one or sometimes even two of my daily meals I need to do a pretty good job of keeping things creative to keep from getting bored. It is also really important to make sure when having a salad for a meal that there is some kind of protein or healthy fat in it to keep you from being starving an hour later. That is a mistake I made early on in being a vegetarian and quickly figured out how to change. Since I […] Continue reading →
The Met Gala is often called fashion’s Oscars, where every famous Oscar star and fashions most influential names all come together on one night. I pretty much only ever watch award shows to see the fashion choices the celebs will be stepping onto the Red Carpet in, and while the Met Gala isn’t exactly an awards show it has just as much hype in the fashion world. There were definitely a lot of amazing and not so amazing choices in my mind this year. Here are my favorites for best […] Continue reading →
I was really feeling like an intense cardio workout at lunch time but I didn’t have too much time so I decided to head on down to our company gym and bang out a quick and dirty treadmill workout that would be sure to kick my butt! I have been all about the interval workouts lately since they are proven to work you just as hard as a consistent speed workout in half the time. Basically, you will get better results in a workout the includes 1 minute of rest with 1 minute of high […] Continue reading →
