Ellie Activewear and My 30 Day Yoga Challenge

Standard Posted on September 5, 2018 by Ali Leave a reply

The September Ellie set has to be one of my favorites so far- I love the camo print and the versatility of this outfit. I’ve worn all of these pieces together and separately several times since I’ve gotten them. This white top is perfect with jeans and sneakers, and the camo pants are so comfy that I’ve worn them on my nightly neighborhood walks with a sweatshirt and flip flops. SO EASY!

You know all about my love for Ellie in general (via this post, and all of my IG posts) but despite all of my cute leggings and sports bras, it’s been a struggle for me to find a workout routine and STICK TO IT! Ugh, I’ve been terrible all summer. I kept saying I was going to join a gym- didn’t happen. I wanted to sign up for kickboxing classes- didn’t happen. I wanted to get back into Platefit- didn’t happen. I think you get my point… I’ve put ALL of it off and honestly, haven’t done much more than a few hikes here and there all summer long. Not proud of it, but I’m not going to dwell on it.

Instead, I’m committing to a 30 day yoga challenge. Yup, and I’m posting it here so that I can actually be held accountable. I’m going to follow up with y’all in 30 days to tell you how far I made it. And in hopes of really making this happen, I’ve pulled Rob into this little plan as well- he’s committed to joining me in the morning, or after work to get some yoga time in. We’ll just be doing it from our living room via YouTube, but I think it’s actually going to be something I’ll be able to commit to 100%.

Watermelon Frosé

Standard Posted on August 20, 2018 by Ali Leave a reply

If you’re like me, you’re probably holding onto every last second of Summer. Luckily I live in LA where it stays pretty warm until pretty much the end of October, but still. There is something I’ve always loved about TRUE Summer. Going to the beach, having barbecues, pool parties, being able to wear dresses and shorts until midnight without freezing your ass off…all of it!

Another thing I love about Summer? The fun DRINKS! Nothing better than laying by the pool with a cold cocktail in your hand, am I right? I’m good with pretty much anything from beer, to vodka, lets be honest. However, I was feeling fancy today while Rob and I were hanging out at home so I decided to take our bottle of rosé we were drinking and kick it up a notch. We had a watermelon on the counter that was ready to be cut up, so I poured it all into a blender, added a splash of vodka, a little lime and it was delicious.

Statement Earrings

Standard Posted on June 25, 2018 by Ali Leave a reply

You guys know I’m a jewelry fanatic, obviously, so I feel super compelled to tell you that the statement earring trend is NOT going away. It’s been around for a while now, but this year it’s really taken off. And if you’re not already on board, it’s time to hop on, ladies! There are so many options to choose from, there is literally no excuse. If your style is edgy, or boho, or classic, or sexy, or whatever else there is, there are earrings FOR YOU, boo!

Earrings are such a great way to add some spice to your outfit! Necklaces are great and all, but earrings pack a little more punch, in my opinion. You can be wearing a black tank top, jeans, and flip flops, then adding a colorful statement earring completely changes the look.

Designer Bags I Love

Standard Posted on June 18, 2018 by Ali Leave a reply

I’m not big into designer things, mainly because I can’t afford them but that’s beside the point… ha! I’ve always had the mindset about designer clothes and shoes that if I DID buy them, I’d be too worried about ruining them to actually USE them. You know what I mean? How shitty would it be to be wearing a nice pair of Louboutin shoes and they get spilled on or scuffed? I’d be SO sad to have spent a bunch of money and then have it be ruined.

BUT over the years, the one designer splurge that I think it’s reasonable to invest into is a good handbag. A good bag can last you YEARS if you take care of it right. And on the flip side, a cheap bag can last only a few months- the handles start to tear, the fabric can start to chip or whatever- it’s happened to all of us, right?

Off The Shoulder

Standard Posted on June 12, 2018 by Ali Leave a reply

I’ve been seeing off the shoulder styles popping up more and more lately, I don’t know about you. Off the shoulder isn’t a new or novel idea, but I feel like it’s more of a trend this year than previous ones. Not going to lie, they can be a little annoying when they pop up over your shoulder, or fall down, when you’re moving around…but a cute enough trend to actually get over that!

I found this top at Nordstrom and it’s since sold out on line, but I put together a few other favorites below that you can shop. My top is a neutral pale blush color and print, but there are so many cute and bold options out that I’m DYING to get my hands on! You can get ties on the shoulders too, long sleeve or short, smocked or not, etc. The option are endless and you can find such cute options at literally ALL price points.
