Curvy Girl on the Run

Yep this title is very specific for today’s post! I wanted to share with you all a look that is both fun and flirty! I recently started to work with  Jessica London  and I got this  skirt  and  shoes  from them.  I love the bold colors on the  skirt  and the  shoes  omg! They’re fun yet super comfy as well! I love that they’re open toed and will take me all through spring and summer.  I thought the  skirt  would be more of a shorter midi length than but because of my height, which is 5’4”, it ended up being more of a maxi skirt on me. Either way it’s cute and I’m loving the colors and the style of it. I feel fabulous wearing this outfit!  Here are some pics of me on the lovely sidewalk in Frisco:  I mean, come on, how can anyone be in a bad mood wearing all this gorgeousness? In case you’re wondering, the top is from  Loft  since I needed something to go with the skirt and shoes. I’ll link it below...

We're in the middle of fall and the weather is forever changing. One of the things I love the most about this season is the brisk temps in the morning and the warmer sun in the afternoon. It is getting darker earlier (which I hate since it cuts into my walking time at night) and lighter later in the mornings.  Transition has to happen in all areas of life- including fashion! I love taking my clothes from season to season by changing them up a bit. I can add or take off a layer depending on the temps. I decided to try a new look with this beautiful midi skirt that I wore earlier in the year a couple of other ways.  Turtlenecks seem to be more popular this year and despite my hatred for them in the past (that admission is for you, Rebekah!), I decided to give them another try. This light gray one is perfect to wear with jeans but I also happened to love it with this skirt! I added some dark pumps and my favorite leopard clutch. I think I successfully transitioned this in...

Well, I don’t know how I made it to forty. Not because I do anything to harm myself like skydiving or walk on train tracks, you know, but because I didn’t think when I was younger that I would EVER be forty! Forty was so old! My parents were forty! My teacher was forty! My boss was forty and he had gray hair! Fast forward and the day is here. I have seen a lot in my lifetime. I have lived in many states, worked and gone to school with many people, made friends, lost loved ones, married and had a baby- the list goes on. If I sound like I am waxing nostalgic, it’s because I am. I guess I thought my life might be different by this time. Then again, I couldn’t imagine my life any differently. I have been through some “firsts” and “lasts” and some “I hope I never have to do that agains”. I have been uncomfortable in my own skin and I have learned to be comfortable in who I really am. I cannot believe this day is here, but I wouldn’t celebrate any less than in a fabulous s...
