Hi everyone, I hope everyone is having a great week. I want to share a few things. For the last two months, I have starting running. Prior to having kids I ran, but I must say now, as a mom, I love the 30 to 45 minutes that I get for myself. Even when I am so tired, after I run I feel like I have so much energy. My brothers and I use the Nike + app, which allows us to provide challenges to each other and win medals. This is fabulous because I am only a little competitive.(Sure!) My poor brothers are the most laid back people and think I am a little crazy with all my smack talk, but man has it motivated me. If you don't have a running partner this app is the next best motivator. So, if you wonder where I have been, it's running like a champ. In two months, I have run a little over 100 miles. Next, I am excited to say that I have been nominated for Voice Bok's Top 50 Moms Who Blog About Fashion & Beauty Contest. The blogs that are in this contest are fabulous, so I am excited to be included. I would love for you to vote for my blog and you can vote by clicking below the icon, where it says vote here. You can vote once a day and the contest lasts for 38 days. Now for this post, plaid is a trend continuing this fall. I love plaid, and when I came across this little number at T.J Max, I knew it was for me. It actually seems the plaid was tie dyed with bleach. This would be a great DIY with you husbands old plaid shirt in the closet.

ReplyDeleteI like how you mixed the plaid with the leather. The shirt and skirt will be fun staples in your fall/winter closet. Have a great day...off to vote!!
Hi, I tried clicking on the icon and it did not take me to the site??
ReplyDeleteHey Shon- don't click on the icon- click just below it on the words "click here to vote". That worked for me so hopefully, it'll work when you try it. Go Carrie!!

I like that this plaid top has a little bit of a different twist with the bleached pattern!
