Fun Facts Friday - Fashion Faves

I was starting to think Friday would never get here. Maybe even more so because I was looking forward to a much-needed rest day. Thankfully, Friday is here and I am taking a rest day. Even better, getting my hair done too ;-)

Since I am getting my hair done, I thought it'd be fun to talk about fashion and style. I never really mention fashion other than random blurbs about shopping. The thing is, I love to shop. I think I need to get paid to shop actually. I love fashion, makeup, funky hairstyles.

Now, that doesn't mean I see myself as a fashionista by any means. I see what I like (hello new BFF Pinterest), but I don't always think I put it together correctly or that it just doesn't look right on me. But man I try.

So, for Fun Facts Friday, I'll do my run down of latest fashion obsessions:

Boots - Ok, all shoes really if I am going to be honest

Scarves - took me a long time to get on board with that trend, now I want them all

Rings - I like large, gaudy rings. I don't own many mind you, but I like them

Earrings - Love big, funky earrings

Necklaces/bracelets - You can change up an outfit so easily with fun, colorful jewelry

Purses - Love big purses

Cardigans - more specifically the "fly away" style (if that makes sense)

In other words, this would be the perfect outfit for me (found on pinterest.com)

...you, know, if anyone is interested in buying me a gift ;-)

Are you a fashion fan? What are your fashion faves?

Let's Have Coffee

If you're a regular blog reader, I'm sure you've seen similar posts, scenarios if you will, about what we might chat about or what I might say if we sat down and had coffee together. I think these can be fun. Maybe fun isn't the right word choice exactly. But maybe it is? They're transparent, showing who the blogger really is ... if they're being honest of course. It's not often you truly get to sit down with the person behind the blog. Banana Nut Biscotti with Banana Glaze If we were to have coffee together ... I would first let you know that I'm not a super fan of coffee. I drink mine with hot cocoa and it's mostly out of habit rather than the need for caffeine. I could forgo it on the weekends entirely. Since we're talking coffee, I would also let you know that I've never ordered coffee from Starbucks and only once from a true coffee shop. I've only been into 2 Starbucks shops - the original in Seattle and one in town wher...

KIND Bar Review + Apple Raisin Wheat Berry Salad

Weights & Step As much as I wanted to run today, I knew there was no getting up early enough to do so. Monday's are hard enough without getting up at 5 am to run. Yawn ... So, today I did my weights at lunch then cardio after work. Weights were pull muscles (biceps and back). I did 3 sets of 8 reps of the following: Biceps : Alternating curls Cross-body curls Zottoman curls Back: Single-arm horizontal row Underhand DB rows Double arm rows It was a pretty good workout. I felt pretty strong today for some reason. Love it when that happens. My legs were pretty sore from yesterday's workout, so I opted for a lower intensity cardio: Cathe's Low Impact Circuit - Cardio Only Premix plus abs. It was a great workout and helped to loosen up my legs. KIND Review I have been very remiss with my review of the KIND bars that I won from Jill @ My So Called Health LIfe . I won the Nut Delight. I don't know why, but I expected it to be a tad softer...

Jewelry and Overcoming the Fear of Failure

I guess I can blame this little hobby on Pinterest - jewelry making. More specifically, metal-stamped jewelry. Wasting time, skimming through Pinterest or seeing people posting pics of metal-stamped bracelets or necklaces, I thought, "hey, surely I can do that." So I started pinning ideas, looking up how-to videos, ordering the tools. Boxes of tools, gadgets and goods started arriving on the daily. I know my husband was really excited. Yep, I was going to do this! I felt like the child set free in a toy store. I didn't even know where to begin exactly. But I had some ideas. Lots and lots of ideas. I'm an idea girl as you'll soon learn. I set out my tools of the trade, all neat and tidy on my kitchen table ready to begin. Luckily, my husband who sits back and watches stepped in with some ideas on ways I could practice the stamping without using the more expensive washers and bars I'd so eagerly purchased. Smart man. What I didn't take into considerati...
