| Jacket – Target | Bodysuit – F21 | Skirt – H&M | Shoes – BCBG | Purse – Rebecca Minkoff | It’s been a rough couple of days for me.  However, looking back at these photos as I type this post is putting a smile on my face.  I’ve come such a long way from being the quiet girl that always worried about fitting in.  When I was in the first grade I moved to NC from NYC.  From that moment until the age of 28 I always felt out of place.  Never realizing that I wasn’t suppose to fit in. It took me getting divorced and my entire life being thrown into a tail-spin for me to realize that.  At the time I believed I wasn’t good enough and I was washed up at 28, lol.  I know, I couldn’t see past my current situation.  However, you are…

| Peplum – F21 | Skirt – Express | Purse – Hayden Harnett | Shoes – BCBG | Before I get into today’s post I just wanted to say thank you so much for all the fantastic comments, emails and messages you guys sent me about my Birthday Reflections.  You guys are so awesome! It’s All Fun and Games Until You Gain Weight I haven’t been feeling the best about my appearance lately.  Which is because my dedication to the gym has been  dissmal this year.  I’ve been relaxed, having fun, networking, traveling, and hanging out.  My eating habits have been pretty much whatever.  I am still a vegetarian but I haven’t been dedicated to my usual meal planning. It’s been nice not having to track every meal and agonizing over macros on a weekly basis. I have absolutely loved every single happy hour and brunch (my fave) outing this…

| Dress – HM | Sandals – Amazon | Necklace – F21 | Purse – Thrifted | Off the shoulder dresses are this summer’s hottest trend. Trends are awesome but only it if makes sense for your lifestyle.  I’m loving all the different variations of off the shoulder dresses and tops but I wasn’t so sure the trend would work for me.  However, when I saw this H&M off-the-shoulder dress I knew I needed it.  I was sold on the cross-over detail on the back of the dress but I knew it would look much better worn in the front.  To play up the subtle v neckline I added this African inspired beaded necklace from Forever 21.  Lastly, I threw on my new lace-up gladiator sandals.  If you have thicker calves like me gladiator sandals that lace-up in the front are the perfect option. You can grab this pair from…
