Fall is officially nine days away. Around this time each year, I find myself switching out traditional summer bottoms for denim. Finding great fitting denim pants can be a challenge. I was excited when Lane Bryant reached out to me to try a pair of denim pants from their latest collection. I selected this pair of Signature Fit skinny jeans because in my mind skinny jeans will never go out of style. They look PHENOMENAL on curves! Plus, I LOVE the seam detailing on this pair. Of particular interest to me was the Flex Magic Waistband, which features a no-gap, stretch waistband that moves with you for all-day comfort. My waist size is significantly smaller than my hip size, having a waistband that actually fits is imperative! The jeans that I am wearing in this post are size 12, Babes the fit is AH-MAZING!!! There is just the right amount stretch to make moving around with ease effortless AND the jeans hug your curves 😍. I styled my jeans with a Striped Button-Front Tie-Front Top that can be worn during the day or night as shown here. The look is finished off with Snake Skin Print Sandals - which seriously go with EVERYTHING!
Over to you Babes, have you tried out Lane Bryant's Jeans Guide? If so, what do you think?!
Until next time,

Today's post features two pieces from Lane Bryant's current LIVI Active Collection! What I love about the LIVI Active Medium-Impact Cooling No-Wire Sport Bra is the amazing support that it offers 😍 I literally wear it at least every other day for my a.m. workouts, it keeps my girls intact and cool! I pair it with the LIVI Power Legging which features excellent craftsmanship and a breathable blend of soft cotton and stretchy spandex. Both pieces pair well together and have superb functionality. 
In this age of COVID-19 plus working from home, I decided it was time for me to get serious about becoming more active. My goal is not to lose weight, but to improve my overall health. Exercise not only improves your immune system, but it also improves your body's ability to resist infections. It strengthens your bones and important muscles that you breathe with, which include your heart muscles.
Do share- what are you doing to boost your immune system?!
Until next time - stay safe Babes!

Today's style story features my take on a camo shirtdress styled for transitional wear - from summer to fall. September usually signals the alarm for fall fashion, but sometimes temperatures don't quite match up 😀. I opted to style this shirtdress off the shoulders, although it was designed to be worn on the shoulders. Additionally, I styled it with both leopard print sandals and black knee-high boots. How you choose to style pieces in your wardrobe all depends on your personal preferences and needs! If it is warm out, I want this dress to be off my shoulders and paired with sandals. If it is a cooler evening but still sunny, I still want my shoulders out, however, I might add in a knee-high boot - plus a floor-length scarf 😉
Over to you! How would you style this camo dress? The possibilities truly are limitless!
Until next time,

Happy SEPTEMBER!!! It is undisputed that this has been a year for the record books in almost every single way imaginable. However, amongst everything that has/is transpiring - time still feels like it is moving rapidly. We have now entered the final four months of 2020!!! I find myself wondering - where does the time go?! Beyond that, I find myself in a space of personal reflection. This is my birth month, just as I have in years prior, I am reexamining my footing in the world. 
Questions that I am actively asking myself include: Am I living my purpose? What am I learning from my life experiences? What would I like to accomplish moving forward?  Am I living with intention? What are some areas that I would like to improve in? 
There are more questions than there are answers! Nonetheless, one thing is for certain: I am thankful to see another day!
Until next time,
