I'm obsessed with scarves! I love to wear a solid shirt with skinnies, tory burch revas and a fun, playful scarf to really make an outfit!
frenchi boyfriend tee
old navy scarf
jolt skinny jeans
tory burch revas
This has become my uniform.
I'm addicted to Frenchi boyfriend tees. I love the loose fitted style and the scoop neck not to mention the million colors they come in. I wear them literally all the time! I get mine from Nordstrom BP. They're normally $20 but Nordstrom has tons on sale for $10-12
The scarf I just got about a week ago and it was only $13 at Old Navy -love love LOVE
Taylor Swift su look de pelo normal es ondulado a colocho y por que los cambios siempre caen bien y hay que probar algo nuevo ahora prueba el estilo de pelo liso... ¿Cómo le luce?
Este nuevo estilo french para tus uñas viene a darle un refresh al tan común french y hasta cierto punto tacky, french en las uñas; estos colores super encendidos harán un nuevo nail-tip combo. Así que será de explorar las posibilidades.... ¿Quién quiere ser normal?
My vacation is over. That means no more lounging, being lazy, NOT going to the gym and NOT running. Luckily I didn't gain a single pound over my break. I actually lost a couple which is weird because all I had were lots of desserts + wine. lol
Anyways, starting today it's back to work! I'm running my first ever half marathon Feb. 20, 2011 for the Lance Armstrong foundation. I've done 5K's before and those were fine, but I've never actually ran more than 7 miles before. So I've got a lot of work to do, but my consistent training is improving my confidence.
My typical workout/diet includes
7am
Gym for 30 mins of morning cardio
10 mins bike
+ 20 mins treadmill/elliptical
9am
Luna bar or slim fast shake + banana
11am
sliced cantaloupe
1pm
soy based chicken salad on whole grain bread
+
1 red apple
3pm
Luna bar
5:30pm
Gym for weight training/cardio or 5 mile run
7pm
6 oz. grilled chicken + broccoli
I'll be feeling back to normal in no time at all! I just hope these next two months don't fly by...
In honor of Country Strong coming out in theaters Jan. 7, 2011, I've dedicated this post to country music!
I'm sure all my fellow southerners listen to country music and I do as well, but I especially LOVE Texas country music; it's an entirely different genre down here in Texas. Austin is the live music capital of the world, which is reason no. 1 why Austin is my favorite city in Texas. I started on my Texas country music journey listening to Pat Green about 10 years ago. From there I fell in love with Aaron Watson, Randy Rogers Band, Wade Bowen and Josh Abbott Band just to name a few.
This kind of music is also called 'red dirt' music as well as Texas country because EVERY artist hails from the lone star state; mostly from the Texas hill country like Randy Rogers Band.
I've compiled 2 lists made up of the essentials and my favorites; this took some time since there are so many amazing songs/artists to choose from!
The essentials
Aaron Watson "Shut up and Dance"
Wade Bowen "Who I am"
(This sums up the greatness of Texas Country music & Wade Bowen <3 )
Randy Rogers Band "Can't Slow Down"
Pat Green "Baby doll"
Randy Rogers Band "Like it used to be"
Wade Bowen "Lay it all on you"
Aaron Watson "Off the record"
Randy Rogers Band "Lost and Found"
Wade Bowen "Trouble"
Reckless Kelly "Break my heart tonight"
Randy Rogers Band "Buy Myself a chance"
The Favorites
Randy Rogers Band "In my arms instead"
Aaron Watson "Reckless"
Jason Boland & the Stragglers "Tulsa Time"
Honeybrowne "Texas Angel"
Pat Green "Let Me"
Aaron Watson "Hearts are breaking across Texas"
Wade Bowen "Mood Ring"
Josh Abbott Band "She's like Texas"
Pat Green "Wave on Wave"
Stoney LaRue "Oklahoma breakdown"
Reckless Kelly "1952 Vincent Black Lightning"
Brandon Rhyder "Let the good times roll"
Bleu Edmondson "$50 Dollars and a Flask of Crown"
Cody Johnson Band "Texas kind of way"
Famous Texas dance halls & music venues
*Gruene Hall, New Braunfels -oldest dance hall in Texas
*Billy Bob's Texas, Fort Worth -world's largest Honky tonk
