Photo a Day May: You

Me, 6:30 this morning, very awesome Pink Floyd t-shirt that I cut the neckline out of, a t-shirt trend that I wrote about at length a few days ago.

I have been on a reverse sleeping schedule for the past few days. I used to keep this schedule most of the time–up all night and asleep most of the afternoon–but have been able to keep a “normal” schedule for the most part since we moved into this house. I thought that getting dressed (in something other than super comfy pajamas and thus keeping with the stereotype that bloggers really do wear pajamas all day) and doing my makeup would help me to stay up all day and get back to that normal schedule. No such luck, but that means I should be …

Photo a Day May: Something You Wore Today

Lately, I have been most comfortable in shirts that hang off the shoulder. In fact, there are days when this style is the only appealing type of shirt in my closet. Shirts that hang off the shoulder are a little more roomy in the chest, plus they hang around the rest of my upper body in all the right places and just look cute. So, I have taken to gathering up all of my old, worn out t-shirts that I hardly ever wear anymore and cutting the necklines out of them. Some may think that this constitutes “ruining” my clothes, but I like to think of it as if I am breathing new life into them. These are shirts that I haven’t worn, besides probably to bed, in years. …

Photo a Day May: Peace

I have heard so much about the Photo a Day challenge created by Fat Mum Slim over the past few months. The idea of it–taking a photo every day throughout the month–has been intriguing to me for a while, but after my go at the 365 Day Challenge, which I failed horribly, I wasn’t really super excited to set myself up for failure again. However, a few days ago my friends Jenny and Amanda were talking about Photo a Day May on Facebook and their plans of participating, and because I am a great, big follower, I finally decided to hop on board.

So here is my first photo for Photo a Day May.

This is the print on the left side of a pair of purple sweatpants I picked up …

Simple Ways to Update Your Wardrobe for a Fabulous Spring Season

When it comes to seasonal fashion, I’d wager that spring is by far the most exciting. Spring fashion is bursting with color and exemplifies everything fresh and fun after a long, dreary winter. Spring is the time of re-birth and just as the flowers outside are beginning to show off their bright colors, you should take the hint and do the same.

While there are new fashion trends fashionistas everywhere strive to adhere to every season, spring fashion is full of staples that are always on the next year’s list of spring and summer fashion ‘do’s', so you don’t have to worry about buying an outfit in a certain style or accessories in bold colors only to have them quickly go out of style and never return to the mainstream. Fashion repeats itself, and hot weather seasons have definite fashion staples. So here are some items …

Picasso Hair Feathers Review and Giveaway [Closed]

Hair feathers are a new fashion trend that have burst onto the scene seemingly out of nowhere. Early last month I saw a commercial advertising them, a few weeks later I stumbled upon a website selling them, after that I started seeing blog posts pop up talking about them, and just recently, I received an email from Picasso Hair Feathers asking if I would be interested in trying them out. Of course, I was pretty intrigued by what hair feathers are all about and what has made this trend catch on so suddenly and spread to so many different age groups.

I recently spent an afternoon with my 6-year-old stepdaughter, Rylie, just the two of us. She is very girly, loves all things pink and purple, and the funkier the item, the better. As …

Find the Perfect Business Suit at Express; Enter For a Chance to Win a $500 Suiting Makeover

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Express. All opinions are 100% mine.

There are incredibly few professional, or even semi-professional career paths you can go down where you will never find yourself in need of a stylish, dependable business suit. I thought for quite a while that I had fallen into a field where I would never even need to consider buying a business suit, but blogging in my pajamas led to receiving opportunities to attend events where pajamas are, in every situation, frowned upon. But it isn’t just the dirty looks or the abundance of fuel I would undoubtedly provide others for their blogs in wearing hot pink fuzzy pajama bottoms and over-sized t-shirts to a gathering, it’s the simple fact that whether you’re representing a company you work for or yourself and …
