The Weekly Roundup from Instagram
Have you adjusted yet? I know I haven’t! I totally slept in the other morning and I didn’t feel guilty at all. I just needed some more time in bed, maybe a day would do me. Its looking like a busy weekend so going to have to schedule in some naps.
If you joined my stories this week you saw some home repairs to an apartment which surprisingly to me I got some request for more of! I have been a landlord for years now and was a general contractor previously and I am so glad you want to see more of that. I will try to shoot some more footage of that and also of my ongoing organization of the kitchen. Its such a great feeling to clean and organize you forget how nice it looks when its been a disaster for so long lol.
Onto the clothes, there has been huge markdowns and clearances due to the new stock of clothes coming in. I have been loving the lilac for spring clothes that I saw the other day and can’t wait to see more. Here is what you guys loved this week.
This is my #momlife! My Tahoe and amazon! Spent the other day helping Piper pick out all of her decorations and invitations to her birthday party. One stop shopping is so the way to go sometimes, especially because she wasn’t feeling well and laying on the couch as we shopped. This big beast makes life so much easier. I love all the room it has and how pretty it is. I can go to Costco or fill it full of cleaning supplies for cleaning apartments lol. This sweater is under 20 and so comfy, you can easily do a one shoulder look and these jeans fit true to size.
Loving the stripes! Such a cute and cozy top! Love how it looks and how you can go over the shoulder. This is a small but if you want a more oversized look go up one size. Paired with these jeans that felt like I was at the beach, highwaisted and ankle cut with raw hem. Such a cute look!
I love cardigans and leggings! I would live in these if I could! I still can’t believe I have gone on this long without trying the Spanx Leggings. They are seriously the best! Go up one size in them, I am in a medium.
How snuggly is this! I love cozy tops and I wear them almost all the time including bed, Kyles place is freezing! So when I find a good one I grab it. Go up one size in this one because its not long but so reasonable priced.
This green sweater is actually a mix of blues, whites, greens and browns. Loving all the variation in it and how cozy it really is. You can stay true to size in it and the fit is perfect. These jeans go up one size, so comfy.

Happy New Year and Resolutions
Such a Happy New Year! Got to spend it with my kiddos at Universal Studios counting down the minutes to the fireworks started. By the last two minutes Will had had his fill and was ready to leave. Probably due to the people, the area was so busy and midnight is a hard time for kids then add on I don’t even know how many people. So we sat close to the boat dock and we got on the boat 2 minutes before the fireworks went off. Thankfully the captain waited a bit before leaving and we got to see some amazing fireworks.
Been wanting to write this blog post for a while now because I know what my goals/resolutions for the new year are due to the fact that I did #last90days. This was such a great experience for me and if you didn’t participate I will tell you about it really quick. It focused on being your best self by working out everyday, drinking half your body weight in ounces everyday, writing in your journal everyday 10 things your grateful for, giving up a food that is not good for you, and getting up one hour earlier everyday.
Since I started on the right track it was easy to stay on it. Yes I had major slip ups along the way but that is part of the battle. And it made thinking about what my goals are for 2019 so much better. I knew I wanted to be healthier, eating healthier, working out more and drinking my water, and to be honest eating less cookies. So that was number one for sure- an overall wellness sense of being. Working towards my ideal weight in all categories because you just can’t do one.
Other things that were extremely important to me this year is to really shine in my own light. I want this to be a successful journey for myself in the world of blogging and social networking. I have specific goals that I have been writing down each day and I want to really push past the fear and take that leap. I want be really thrive in this online community and make myself apart of it in the best way possible. Theses goals I will talk about in a later post and how I plan on getting there and my resources along the way.
My last goal is to be more present. Mostly the reason why it took so long to come out with this post is because of those two precious human beings up there. I wanted to enjoy our vacation and not be on my computer working. Being the best mom I can be is really important to me and making sure that they know that even though mom is busy working, she is still making time for you.
What are your goals for this year? I would love to know your thoughts and let me know if your thinking the same way I am. Happy New Year!!!

Fall Styles
There are some great fall styles this year. If you have been watching the gram lately you will see all the major styles trending. This year has definitely had its fill of accessories with hats and scarfs and I think pumpkins have become an accessories. I have been loving the animal print and plaid this year. The best thing is that everyone is coming out with so many good products that you can get anything in any price range right now.
First thing I am going to cover is the plaid. So many good plaid pieces and I noticed that the earliest start of it was the Nordstrom sale which had some great plaids then Abercrombie came out with some so similar but at a much more affordable price range. I grabbed most of mine from Abercrombie and Old Navy this year. Old Navy has so really soft plaids. Love the colors that Abercrombie came out with and American Eagle came out with some great plaid flannels just recently.
Plaid favorites:
Animal print has been killing it. I have been loving the leopard personally and love how it is practically a neutral.
Animal print favorites:
Camo had become one of my favorites for fall style. Love how it will go with many items, look fabulous with whites and black.
Some of my favorite camo:
