Alas, we are finally at Friday; the last day of my red, white & black series. Today’s pop of red: jeans! Every girl should have at least one or two pairs of fun jeans in her closet. Check out these ferocious options: Rockstars by Old Navy, Foiled Metallic Jeggings by Joe’s Jeans, Levi’s Denim Leggings at Kohl’s, Floral Print Skinny Jeans at Forever 21.
I saved this outfit for last because I definitely think it is the I have been doing tons of public speaking lately, and while I love every minute of it, I still get really nervous before each presentation. Public speaking has always kinda been my thing. I was a debater (yes, all jokes welcome) in high school, and now a big part of my career is doing workshops for publicists and college students. I really do understand why people have a fear of public speaking; it is not for the weak at heart. However, the truth is that no matter what career path you pick, you will probably have to get in front Every year, I look forward to the day when Starbucks brings back the festive, red holiday cups. In my mind, that is the official kick off to the holiday season, my favorite time of the year! I get really excited about Black Friday, Christmas music, and all the parties and get-togethers. While the holiday season is supposed to be fun, it can also be extremely stressful. There is a reason why November is National Stress Awareness Month!

Next up, red shoes + a flannel! The perfect outfit for a casual Sunday afternoon.
Happy Wednesday! Keep on plugging away, and being fabulous, Friday will be here soon enough. This awesome clutch (another amazing thrift store find) is my pop of red for Day 3. If you can take away one thing from my red, white and black series, it should be that you can find your best statement pieces at thrift stores.
I sorta hate the word, “plus size”, not because I am oblivious to the fact that I am considered plus size, but it has such a negative connotation. And there really aren’t any better synonyms. Curvy? Uh, no thanks, that doesn’t sound better. So, let’s just say this post is for those of us that aren’t a size 2. If you haven’t noticed from my excessive amounts of “What I Wore” posts lately, I am on a fashion rampage. I might be feeling a wee bit nostalgic for my days at Vogue and People’s Revolution. I miss the sense of Another day, another pop of red. I am totally obsessed (get excited because we have 3 more days of this!). This skirt is another wonderful thrift store find (also, see red blazer awesomeness). I have worn some variation of this outfit to many interviews and business meetings. Admittedly, I should probably be wearing Spanx with this skirt, but I didn’t realize it till after the pics were already taken. Ooops…next time.
Every girl should have a go-to leather jacket in Sometimes I just wake up in the morning, with random ideas that have to be executed right away…or else. That is exactly what happened on Saturday morning. I was sitting in my bed thinking about what I would post on the blog this week, and for some reason I was really digging the idea of doing a red, white and black series. It might be cliche/overdone, but I still love this particular color combo. I always gravitate towards black and white pieces, so a pop of red usually makes an outfit for me. I went through my closet and realized MAJOR Fashion Tip: If you see a 40% off sign in the window of Gap, go in! That usually means you can get 40% off of sale items too. I normally don’t go for color, but when I saw this shirt, and it was less than $8, I couldn’t resist. Even though, we had a brief stint of arctic temperatures the last few days, I am happy to report it is back to being in the 80s! Whoo!!
Most people probably don’t think fashion and food go together, but in my world, they are my two greatest loves. Thus, I have decided that it makes sense to start doing a regular column called, “What I Ate”. When it comes to food, I am pretty much down for anything from gourmet to gross (I am never above Taco Bell or Dominos). One of the greatest things about living in Austin is the food, so I am going to try to use these posts to highlight all the local spots. However, I can’t deny that I love a good meal |
