Spending Ban Challenge!

I like to do a spending freeze two times a year. This usually takes place every February (what I like to call Frugal February) and another in August. By the way, I cannot believe it is already August! This year is flying by. Lately my spending has been out of control. While I'm not spending as much as I used to on athletic gear, it's switched over to handbags. Handbags can be way more expensive than clothes so I need to reign it in and enjoy what I have and all that. This month I am only going to buy what I need and what my cats need. Spending money on food is okay. If I run out of something like toiletries that of course is fine to purchase. But no shopping at all on bags, clothes, Amazon purchases, etc. I did however make one last purchase from Lululemon before I went on my ban. So I will have at least one or two reviews for the month of August. I may have to haul my butt over to the mall and do some store try ons. I have been lazy about going to the mall these day

Upload! July 31st 2018

Tonight's upload is definitely interesting to say the least. Lots of wild and crazy looking prints. I think you'll see them on WMTM pretty soon if you do like them. I'm actually kind of interested in this the Light Strides bra, Hooded Define Jacket and City Street Cardigan. What do you guys think of tonight's upload? I think will be placing a semi large order. City Street Cardigan Heathered Mistique (I can totally wear this to work but it's also $148!)  Light Strides Bra Incognito Camo (For $78 this bra better be fantastic, I might be crazy enough to order it to try!) Sculpt Tank Color Crush Scuba Pullover Smoky Blush Flip It & Reverse It Jacket Black Hooded Define Jacket Vintage Mauve (I think this is pretty cute, I might order to try) Wunder Under Hi-Rise Tight Nulux Spectrum (I have no words!) Wunder Under Hi-Rise 7/8 Tight Exposure Multi Align Pant Lacescape (This looks familiar, did they bring th

Fit Review! Athleta Review Part 2! Skulptek Skinny Jean & Crop

Hope everyone had a great weekend! I can' believe it's almost the end of July. This summer is really flying by. Atlanta is so hot right now that it is hard to wear jeans in the summer. I did however find a really nice light weight crop denim from Athleta. I've worn them a few times already and they are very comfortable. For reference I'm 4 feet 11 inches and typically a size 4 in Lululemon tops and bottoms. In Athleta I'm usually a size PXS in tops and 2 Petite for bottoms. Outfit Details: Lululemon Sweat Times Short Sleeve  - size 2 Athleta Skulptek Skinny Crop Jean Granite Wash - size 2P Allbirds Wool Runners Balenciaga Bag These fit a bit more loose than the quartz wash I reviewed in my last post . The granite wash fits more like a boyfriend jean. These are relaxed fit for a more casual look. I also prefer to fold the cuffs up for a more cropped look, otherwise the length of the inseam on these is 24.5 inches. That's almost full

Fit Review Friday! Athleta Review Part 1 Mindset Vest, Sculptek Skinny Jean

Happy Friday everyone! I have a pretty long Athleta review but I will be breaking them up in two parts. Today I'm going over the Mindset Vest and Sculptek Skinny Denim in quartz wash. For reference I'm 4 feet 11 inches and typically a size 4 in Lululemon tops and bottoms. In Athleta I'm usually a size PXS in tops and 2 Petite for bottoms. This entire outfit is new except for the booties. The  J.Crew Scoopneck Tencel Tee  is super soft. I am wearing a size XXS and it's a loose fit. The scoop neck is a little low and it is very see through but for a casual summer outfit it works fine. The  Mindset Vest  is also very soft and runs large. The neckline is adjustable and you can style it differently if you wish. More on the vest in a little bit. Outfit details: J.Crew Scoopneck Tencel Tee - on sale! I'm wearing size XXS Athleta Mindset Vest - $24.99 I'm wearing size PXS Athleta Sculptek Skinny Jean - I'm wearing size 2P Sam Edelman P

Upload! July 24th 2018

I am back from my road trip! Apologies for not being able to update while I was away. My hubby didn't recommend bringing a laptop or even my iPad with us on the trip. Tonight's upload is rather small. They did drop a few more fall items like this cute wrap in vintage mauve. Nothing for me tonight! I do however, have a really good fit review Friday coming up for you guys! Stay tuned. Forward Flow Cape Vintage Mauve (or is this an old color?) Sculpt Tank Shorelines (Love the print, but it doesn't work on this tank) Energy Bra Shorelines Pack It Down Vest Mauve Stone (I'm still debating ordering the jacket, has anyone tried it on yet?)
