What I Wore: Birthday Girl

I’m back! I’ve really missed sharing pieces of my life with all of you this past week – something that always seems to happen when I take a break from the blog, but it’s a necessary evil at times. I celebrated a milestone birthday a little over a week ago, and I must say, it was a difficult one to swallow. I had a rough few days leading up to it, but have decided to try my best to embrace it. And naturally that started by wearing a kick ass outfit that definitely did not read old lady. I was meeting with my family for a birthday dinner at PF Changs so I wanted to look casual, but still rock my birthday girl status. Warning: I’m pretty sure I will live in these shorts for the rest of the year (a plus side to living in South Florida: never ending summer weather). They are slinky, light and oh so fabulous! Plus they can be paired with any neutral tee for a perfectly effortless look. I added my favorite pair of sky-high wedges and I was ready to party!

Week Break

Hi everyone!

Hope you all had a great weekend – I know I did!
My birthday weekend was full of a lot of love, laughter and fun – exactly how I wanted it to be. However, because my days consisted of full-time fun, I didn’t have a whole lot of time to blog. This is why I’ll be taking a little week hiatus just to regroup and recover from the big 3-0.

Don’t miss me too much!
I promise I’ll be back with all the great content you have come to expect come next week!

Happy Birthday to Me!

Except today is my birthday!
I accept all forms of love, whether in
written or visual form. 😉

I’ll be celebrating in a surprisingly low-key
fashion this weekend with those I love
the most.

Have a great weekend everyone!

I love a good tee. Especially a good fandom one. As you all know by now, I am a fan of many a band, movie and show. I just love a whole lot of things and I like to showcase that love as often as I possibly can. Cue t-shirts.com! They have an extensive collection, from band shirts to nerdy phrases to cult shows. Anything you want, they have. And I can vouch for their quality. They are soft and comfortable. So comfortable I rocked my t-shirts.com Bowie tee to my most recent outdoor derby practice. Needless to say, I got multiple compliments from teammates and coaches, and didn’t feel like it was cramping my style either (despite the 100+ heat).  If you are in the market for some fun new tees, I would definitely check them out!

As for all of you interested in how my 2nd practice went, feel free to click the link.

National Ice Cream Month

I know, today is supposed to be hump day.
There should be a hottie gracing this post. However, I have something else completely delicious and crave worthy for all of you today: ICE CREAM! Did you know July is National Ice Cream Month? I didn’t, and I’m actually honored that I get to share my birthday month with the amazing merriment that is ice cream. If you know me, I don’t do sweets. Unless we are talking about ice cream. If we are, I can eat an entire pint all by myself. I can also do some serious damage at Dairy Queen if left unattended with a Blizzard. Granted, now being gluten and dairy free, this makes it a little more difficult for me to indulge in my favorite sweet so I leave it for special occasions only (read: bouts of nasty PMS).

That’s why I smiled when I saw this fun graphic via the Ultimate Coupons blog:

What does your favorite flavor say about you? Mine is Cookies and Cream, which means I’m a sweetheart (can’t deny that), but the sharing bit? Not so much. Get your own, friends!
