Hello, friends! I'm excited to share this skirt with you today. I found it recently at Goodwill - there is a Saks Fifth Avenue tag on the inside and I feel that it is from the '70s (color best represented in the last photograph). The awesome part is that it was only $5! What a fun find, eh? I hope your week is great - I'm in the theater all week for a performance this weekend. Thanks for stopping by!

REVOLT: Week 8

Hi friends! I'm checkin' in with my latest Revolt results and I'm still pleased. I did a few of the workouts this past week and have been stickin' to the meal plan ideals as much as possible.  I've started to incorporate the meal plan as a lifestyle now - it's definitely getting more familiar and easier. Before, I used to plan my grocery shopping based on whatever fancy and thoroughly detailed meal recipes I followed...spending a lot of time at the grocery store hunting for specific ingredients. I never really knew how to make "basics." Now, I can shop for my basics - meat, salad, veggies, eggs, and Greek yogurt (throw in a few other randoms) and get in and out of the store so much quicker! On Saturday I bought about $10 worth of steak and cut it into 9 small servings. Here are my latest stats (click here to learn more about Revolt):

REVOLT: Week 7

Hi friends! This week's Revolt program has been more on track - I did several of the workouts and have been sticking to the meal plan principles as much as possible. Since I haven't been pushing myself as hard as I did in the first three weeks, I've noticed a plateau in my results, however, I'm happy with these current results. I like my current weight and body fat percentage (my clothes fit better, as well), but ultimately, I'd like to drop about 2-3% more body fat. I'm not in any hurry and I think it's better for me to work at my own pace right now. What I've liked is that some of my carby cravings (hello chips and salsa!) have dwindled and I love eating the meal plan food (like I mentioned before, a little bit of meat and lots of veggies). So....here we go with this week's results (click here to learn more about Revolt):

And a dinner meal from this week (steak, salad, and mushrooms!):

Greetings again! I'm excited to share this pink dress with you because I debated it for about six months. When I first discovered Ms. Vick's clothing at Midway Treasures, I thought this dress was cute but costume-y (the pink gingham underskirt hem was originally six inches longer), like it should be on the set of Oklahoma! I passed in December. When I returned in April, it was still there and I thought it was just as cute, but still too costume-y. Since April, I thought about it several times and decided I wanted it. Upon returning last week, the dress was still in the shop and only $15 (yay for me!) and my friend Carrie suggested hemming the pink underskirt so it was shorter than the sheer overskirt. That sold me and I think took away some of the apron-like costume-y effect of the dress. I'm so glad I kept it in my thoughts and that it was still available.

Another fun item I purchased recently was this black patent clutch for only $2 at a thrift store near my house - two dollars, wow! And I love the striped interior so much I had David take a picture. Thank you so much for stopping by today - I really appreciate it!
