    Fresh Juice

    I’ll be the first one to say that I love juicing, eating lots of fresh seasonal foods and taking care of my body, but that doesn’t mean I’m going on a juice-only diet. From where I stand, I would rather incorporate juicing into a seasonal-based, clean diet because this is what makes me feel my best. So, let’s talk juicing. WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS? Drinking fresh vegetable juice allows you to consume more fresh vegetables, which we all know are full of good things like vitamins, minerals, and beneficial enzymes. Fresh vegetable juice is very alkalizing, meaning that it helps to strengthen the body and keep it healthy. I’ve also…

    Living in Neutrals

    dress | leggings | boots As y’all know, I am all about neutrals this year! I’ve worn some beautiful blush, grey, white and black (of course) this winter. Once I saw this beige dress from the Shabby Apple I knew I had to add it to my wardrobe. This is a super soft long sleeved t-shirt dress with a big pocket on the front and has quickly become one of my favorite dresses. Because it’s so cold outside, I’ve worn it with leggings but I plan on transitioning it into Spring and early summer by rolling up the sleeves and pairing with sandals! I am so ready for warmer weather……

    Valentine’s Day

    tunic | leggings | booties | bangles Happy Love day y’all! For me, Valentine’s Day takes on such a bigger meaning than getting a present. It’s about spending quality time with my Husband. Four years ago, we had our first Valentine’s Day together. Derrek made it really special by taking me to our favorite hotel the night before where we went to a romantic dinner and then the next morning had room service for breakfast. For lunch, he took me to my favorite restaurant in Georgetown and proposed to me. It was the most unforgettable experience I’ve ever had because he thought of all of my favorite things and made sure they…

    TGIF ya’ll!

    dress | cardigan | booties | bag | bangles TGIF ya’ll! This has been one long week for me so I’ve been looking forward to the weekend! Derrek and I had to run tons of errands this morning so I got him to snap some pictures of me in this cute outfit from Pink Blush Boutique. I’ve worked with Pink Blush before and I LOVE their clothes. Now that I’m pregnant, I’ve been looking into clothing that works now and later after I have the baby. I love maxi dresses and cardigans so pairing them together was a no brainer. I’ve been living in pinks, greys and black lately and having found…

    DockATot Deluxe

    I cannot believe that we are going to have a third child by this summer! Being pregnant is so much fun for me (now that the morning sickness has passed). Nolan and Harper went to my ultrasound appointment, and I recorded it for Derrek so Nolan asks to watch the video of the baby pretty much every night. He kisses my belly and sings his version of “Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star” and he talks about the baby being his! He really loves little babies, and I know he is going to be really excited and helpful when his new little brother or sister comes along. Harper doesn’t quite understand yet…
