Mad About Mod


Wow, Wednesday already?  My first week of school is well on it's way...and I already can't wait for the weekend.  I'm exhausted.  210 Teenagers wear me out.  On to today's topic.  What is Mod you ask?

Mod is a style developed in Britain that includes scooters, dropped waists, buckles, near the knee skirts, sack silhouettes, wider sleeves, box pleats, bad girl makeup, a defined seam, and double breasted jackets.  It's really fun, edgy, sexy, and even a little scandalous.  The stylists at Vogue once again outdid themselves.  Check out these candy colored photos that show the Mod style.  What do you think?  Would you feel comfortable wearing the Mod style?  What's your favorite element of the trend?  Have a great day friends!

Wow, I've found a new band I'm in love with.  Have you heard?  Miranda Lambert has joined with two other talented ladies, Ashley Monroe and Angaleena Presley to form a down home country girl band, Pistol Annies  I love down home country.  The album is amazing, you have to check it out.  Here are some photos of the ladies and the video from their single, "Hell On Heels."




Fall In Love Tuesday To Die For Trends

Lace

It's time for me to link up with Big City Belle again today for Fall In Love Tuesday!  I'm so excited, because I came across Glamour Magazine's favorite Fall trends today and thought it would be just perfect!  Before I move on to that though, some of you asked how my first day of school was, and it was great!  The kids definitely are a work in progress, but no major problems and they seem like a fun group so far.  More to come on that later.  Thanks for all the sweet comments!

One of my favorite Fall trends is plaid.  How about you?  What do you love wearing when Autumn rolls around?

Much Needed Motivation For My 1st Day Back


Good morning friends.  I am back at work this morning after being off since June 10.  It was such a fantastic summer.  I traveled, read, wrote, hung out with my family and friends, shopped, worked out, and so much more.  I truly live for my summers.  I also love fall though and am really excited to be back.  With going back to school, though, I promised myself I would get back on track and head back to Weight Watchers.

I love Weight Watchers, but hope I can stay motivated this time.  Do you have any secrets for eating right or working out?  I found some amazing motivation on Pinterest, and thought I'd share with you all for a new week.  Have a wonderful day friends!!!  Wish me luck today!!!

Wanna Go Riding?


Hope you're all having a fabulous day!  I'm back to school tomorrow and am feeling a little anxious!  My classes are so full this year!  I have a feeling it's going to be a great year.  I will keep you updated and let you know how the day goes. With Fall very shortly approaching, one style I love is equestrian-inspired style.  The patterns, prints, and boots remind me of a crisp autumn day.  Do you ride?  I don't, since I fell of a horse and got a concussion, but want to try again. Any tips?

She's All Grown Up


All I can say is...wow.  These photos of Kristen Stewart from the cover of W Magazine are stunning.  I wish she had a little more of an electrifying personality to match her gorgeous looks. Are you a Twilight fan?  What do you think?
