Here’s a typical Friday night outfit for me. It’s minimal, edgy and sleek. I normally attempt a simple yet striking look like this when Wyatt and I want to have a nice dinner and movie date but lately it seems like I’m stuck in my sweats. I don’t know what my deal is because I’m not someone who lives in loungewear. I think it’s normal to not want to get up, dressed, put makeup on every single day but it’s definitely got my spirits a little down because I’m usually someone who looks like I have it all together (on the outside at least.). I do have a lot, and I mean LOT, going on in my personal life that is making me more and more exhausted so I should just take this time to focus on my insides rather than my appearance. I really think this should just be a reminder to everyone to really focus on your inner health just as much as you focus on your outer beauty. AM I RIGHT LADIES? Whatever junk and bad energy you have going on inside will definitely reflect in your appearance. My mom has always said that looking good and feeling confident on the outside starts with being healthy on the inside. One thing that really makes me feel amazing and also makes my skin glow is coconut water. I’m absolutely loving it. I drink at least one bottle a day to keep me hydrated. That was just a little fitness and health tip that will probably never happen again here on my blog. I’m not someone you should copy your diet after. I eat nothing but bad food mixed with a salad and coconut water here and there. Ha!

I really shouldn’t take these days of sweat pants and hair in bun for granted. Those are the days where I get more stuff done around the house but more importantly, I feel more relaxed and I finally have the time and ability to really focus on my mind, body and spirit.

Let’s just say I’m not a fashion blogger 24/7, I’m also a girl that loves to live in her black leggings and no bra. I need a break too.

With Love,

P.S. If you don’t follow me on social media than you probably don’t know how ecstatic I am about having a small feature in Marie Claire magazine. Yes. Marie Claire! I was just browsing through the pages late at night and I saw my name at the bottom corner of the page towards to beginning of the book and just FREAKED OUT. My name and my picture are in a fashion magazine. Never thought I would say that. Now I’m just waiting for the day Marie Claire hires me. Wouldn’t that be nice?
