How To Balance Working Out Daily + Not Washing Your Hair Everyday

I won't pretend to be an expert at everything but I do think I am *somewhat* of an authority on how to balance working out daily and not washing your hair everyday because I've had plenty of experience finding what works.  As in, years and years of practice/trial and error.  I also realize that some people may workout most days of the week but maybe naturally just don't sweat as much...but for me, 99% of the time, my workouts are going to make me sweat...a lot.  So how do you sweat a lot and not totally ruin your hair?

My Favorite Red Wines

I love that when I asked if y'all would like a round up of my favorite red wines on Instagram, SO many of you were very into it.  I love that about you.  Athleisure and wine have been the topics of my blog posts this week and honestly I wonder why I ever write about anything else?!  These topics are majorly in my wheelhouse/my favorite things.  Now, I don't claim to be a sommelier, but I do feel like I have the experience of drinking lots of different kinds of wines and have found a really good rotation of reds I like to pick up from the store.  I very rarely spend over $15 and even less often do I spend over $20...so this list will be everything under about $20 (prices vary from store to store) and many will be under $15. Read More

Core, Back, & Butt Blaster Workout

Today's core, back, & butt blaster workout is tough but so good.  Your core is more than just your abs, but it's also your lower & upper back, hip flexors, and even that booty as you get into your legs...it's all connected!  It's important not to neglect your back when you are working your core so not just focusing on crunches!  This workout will hit it all.Read More

How to Make Athleisure Work Appropriate

Last week on Instagram I asked if you'd be interested in me putting together a post sharing how to make athleisure work appropriate and your response was a resounding yes.  It was my daily goal to be as comfortable as possible at my corporate job--I mean that hasn't change now that I work for myself from home--but I of course had a certain dress code by that I needed to abide by and therefore I figured out ways to styled athleisure pieces like leggings and other comfy pieces so that I could wear them to work!
