In wanting to give you a deeper look into why I chose each look and how you can find each look for yourself, I realized that simply listing off brands wouldn’t be enough. So I created this post. Please leave a comment below and let me know which outfit you like best and what your five essentials are for summer. Enjoy the video above!
Today’s videois a couple’s fashion lookbook. I wanted to do this to not only give women inspiration on what to wear, but men too. Below I’ve linked similar items to give you an idea of what you can put together while creating your own outfits. Many of our clothing items are from Zara and Zara Man collections. I hope you enjoy because we had a ton of fun creating this video.
Okay, let’s face it. That run down button-down shirt with the “small” stain and the button missing at the bottom, has got to go! Oh, and just because it was your favorite pair of overalls in the 9th grade doesn’t mean you have to hold onto it.
There comes a time when we all need a little wardrobe upgrading in our lives. With so many clothes staring back at us in our closets, which ones do we keep and which ones get tossed?
It’s hard to let go of your stuff—even for celebrities like Kim Kardashian who cried when her husband, Kanye, got rid of 98% of the things in her closet before he replaced them with new things. You see, it doesn’t matter how easily a person can replace old things because it’s not aways about the money. It’s an emotional attachment.
If you’ve read my blog post, Meet My Mother, you know that my mother was was visiting from New York for the first time in six years. Yes, you read that right. Instead of requesting a good old fashioned meal, I requested a hair makeover. In true hair lover fashion. Oh come on, if your mother was a talented cosmetologist I’m sure you would have done the same thing. When a woman is that good with hair, you don’t pass up on any opportunities.
Okay, I’m going to be honest with you. When you are just beginning or getting back in your groove, workouts SUCK. But beyond working out, keeping track of what I consume sucks even more. I know the benefits and I always feel better, but refusing that delicious piece of cheesecake hurts almost every time.
Okay, I got off track. Before or after my “glorious” workouts, I drink protein smoothies. Why? Long story short, they fill you up fast and help build muscle. Sexy.
INGREDIENTS
2 cups spinach
1 banana
2 cups coconut milk
1 cup of lite vanilla greek yogurt
2 cups frozen berry mix (strawberry, raspberry, blueberry)
2 tablespoons almond butter
First, put the coconut milk and spinach in the blender. Blend. Blending greens first helps blend them smoother getting rid of any gritty texture. Next, add the rest of the ingredients and blend until smooth. Add Ice if your berries aren’t frozen.
If you try any of these or have any other smoothie ideas, please comment down below and share. I’m also always game for more eating habits tips.
The twist-out. Many of us go YEARS without finding the product that will make the time we put into twisting our hair worth the while. For example, I toil over my hair for, sometimes, hours of styling, but when I walk outside–POOF! All of my definition is lost, my hair shrinks and draws up, and it looks like I didn’t put much effort into it at all. And sure, your co-workers can’t figure out why you frown when they say “ I love your hair, today!“, but you know. You spent hours washing, detangling, twisting, and letting your hair dry and the proof is NOT in the pudding. Well, rest assured. If you happen to have type 4 hair and you want a technique and product that will make your work count, I just may have found what you’ve been looking for.
