Favorite Summer Outfit - Skirt, Graphic Tee and Sandals

 Hello Foxy Friends! In A World You Can Be Anything Be Kind. It's what my shirt says, and when I saw it, I had to have it.  The last year or so, I have been on a major graphic tee kick. I can't get enough of them. I deiced a bit ago that my summer outfit was going to be lots of skirts, mixed with different shirts and maybe these shorts too. Since graphic tees are my jam right now, I thought I would pair them together, and it does make the perfect outfit. This whole outfit is from Amazon, even the shoes, which are so comfy and easy to slip on. Perfect for running errands.

Dress / Shirt (similar) / Sandals / Bracelets (similar)

The skirt quality is really good too, not cheap feeling, and not see through. The waist band is elastic, which is always a win, and the cute tie waist is fake, and doesn't really do anything other then be cute.

Also my thing is stacked bracelets, I feel like they are so easy to throw on and your outfit just looks more put together. Like I have my life put together, when in reality I threw them on last second when I realized I have no jewelry on.

Also I tried to curl my hair a new way. Last time I was at the salon they showed me how they do it, and now I'm trying it out on my hair, before doing a tutorial. This was my first go. I'm going to try bigger sections next time, see how it works out. I'll keep you posted. 

Miss Friday Favorites last week, but you'll get one this week. So much happened in the last two weeks, okay not really, but have lots of pictures to post.

Favorite Workout Gear

Hi Foxy Friends! Today I'm joining The Blended Blog for our Wednesday fashion prompt, workout gear. The wonderful Shelly is hosting today's link up, So go link up your workout gear post on The Blended Blog or Shelly's blog. 

So I'm going to throw this out there, I'm probably the LAST person you want to take fashion advise from for workout gear. I have been wearing the same workout shorts for the last 14 years, no joke, these things were made to last! Case in point....Shorts from when I ran my 1/2 marathon 7 years ago.

This picture, taken 2016, still wearing them, even the same shirt. I've tried so hard to find more pairs like it, but so far have been unsuccessful. I like them to be higher on the waist and for whatever reason, the people making running shorts thing everyone wearing them have runners bodies...FYI: I do not.

I have in the past 18 month or so discovered I like wearing bikes shorts, not the most flattering thing, but a good when you can't find any bike shorts and you're just tired of wearing the same shorts the last 14 years. Yep I just had to make that shirt for "Mean Girls" Day.

So as you can see my workout uniform is tank, sports bra and shorts of some sort. I figured out early on I can't wear any sort of pants, this might be TMI but I'm going to tell you anyway, I get heat rash super easy, so running with pants on, heat rash within 5 minutes. So during the colder months, it gets cold for me.

I do however like wearing workout pants for around the house. My favorite ones comes from Fabletics. I have two pairs now and they are so comfy and hold up well. These are the first I bought and my dad HATES them. This is the only picture of have of them. I used to wear them to physical therapy a lot when I had my ankle surgery, full story on why here. Here I am at physical therapy getting stim on my ankle.

I am LOVING these moto leggings, and they're on sale too! I actually have been wearing them like pants. I wore them on Sunday to do errands.

I haven't found a sports bra that I am totally in love with, I'm thinking I need to get some better ones...anyone have any suggestions?

I have been obsessed with making my own workout shirts lately. Case in point...

Perhaps I should go into business and make these. Anyone want one? How's $25 plus shipping? haha, just kidding, sort of.  I'm thinking I need to add a few more to my workout wardrobe...how about "Today's workout is sponsored by Pizza"

Oh and I forgot to talk about my favorite shoes! Currently I really like these ones. I've gone through several brands and have found Asics to be the best for me. I highly suggest you go to a running store who has a treadmill and can assess how you run and workout and then help you pick the best fit for you.

Also, if you go to a turbo kick type class these are my favorite weighted gloves. They are one pound each and perfect for getting a little extra weight in on the arms while boxing around.

Now go link up your posts with The Blended Blog or Shelly!

Love Is In The Air....Or On My Shirt

Hi Foxy Friends! Today I have my new favorite Love Tee, it's so cute, and it's only $10, can't beat that price! Now the weather needs to cool down, I don't like wearing tight tee's when it's hot. Currently we're having 95° weather with 71% humidity, which is high for us! Anyway, enough complaining, let's get to it.

Totally off topic, but my FAVORITE strapless bra is being price matched at Nordstrom (not part of the anniversary sale). Having things in your wish list paid off, I randomly put it there to remember to buy it later, and when I went to check on what I had in my wishlist, low and behold it was there 25% off! You need to get it, I can wear it all day and not have to pull up on it. You'll thank me later. I'm wearing it here:

Tank (now only $10.49, get it for next year!) / Shorts / Shoes (similar) 

Link up your fashion post below! I'd love to see what you got at the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale, or what you've been wearing lately!

4th Of July Outfit

Happy Wednesday! I'm taking the day off and doing a day date with Mr. but I thought I would share my 4th of July outfit with you. I thought this year I'm going plain and simple.

By purchasing through Foxy's Domestic Side, you're helping me to continue creating fun things for this space.

Shorts (similar here - on sale for $28.80! and here) | USA T-Shirt | Shoes

I decided to go with a simple necklace and a bold lip, cause what's 4th of July without matching red lips to go with?

Funny how when I did my make up for this look, I thought it was so heavy and bold, but now looking at the pictures you can hardly see it...goes to show if you are taking pictures you need to put on WAY more then you think you need if you want it to show up in pictures.

A fun picture for you.

Also linking up with Anne from Anne In Residence and her monthly currently where she gives you the topics to talk about. This month her guest host Stephanie, okay let's get to the topics:

Documenting: Everything I can about the kids, I know I'm going to forget it all and I'm trying to get as much down as I can and take as many pictures as I can...cause moments like these, go by fast and I can barely remember it all.

Accomplishing: My first party of two birthdays this summer. Throwing Baby Fox a half birthday is awesome, but then it makes me throwing two summer birthdays, so now that one is done I'm onto the next. Mini Fox says she wants a Frozen party...at least there's lots out there to buy for that one. Phew.

Enjoying: Summer. I'm loving the long days and the swimming and get together with friends and the staying up late with the kids. It's all so fun and I already know it's going by way too quickly!

Reading: Well besides other people's blogs, not much. I need to get on that. Too much too do, too little time. Like today, I decided instead of doing something productive I wanted to take a nap. Could I have fought through the drowsiness and did something with my afternoon, yes, but did I? No...and it felt darn good.


Spending: Nothing! Woo hoo! I am on my no shopping ban and I haven't spent anything. Actually that's not true, today my Fabletics monthly subscription (referral link) came up and I decided to use it this month because I am in desperate need of some new shorts. I have been wearing the same shorts for at least 10 years...I know. I just can't seem to find any that I really like. I like a wide waist band and the built in underwear...anyone have any leads? I'm hoping these ones will work out, we'll see.

I know tight shorts, but I say, hey if people can wear tight pants to the gym, why not tight shorts? I hope they hold it all in, and I hope I can return them if I don't like...yikes!

So tell me...if you celebrated 4th of July, what time did you get home?

10 Summer Must Haves

Hello Foxy Friends! You guys know my love for tulle skirts. I think it's the perfect skirt for both Spring and Summer.  This month the ladies over at The Blended Blog are hosting a series called Fashion Files, where we find some inspiration and then recreate that look. Last week I decided I wanted to recreate a look with my jean vest, because it doesn't get near enough wear. This week I decided to style my tulle skirt. I need to step outside of my little comfy box. Off to Pinterest I headed and found these gems, seriously, how gorgeous do these ladies look?

Outfit #1 // Outfit #2 // Outfit #3

By purchasing through Foxy's Domestic Side, you're helping me to continue creating fun things for this space.

I thought I cold recreate this look. I never would have paired these things together had it not been for pinterest, so thank you Pinterest for the win! I love this look, now where to wear it...I think this might be my next MNO outfit, cause why not?

The tulle skirt is no longer available, but look down below for some cute, affordable options.

This clutch, oh my goodness how much do I love this clutch? It's my new favorite go to going out bag...swoon.

I just love this graphic tee, what I did learn is that my closet is full of loose fitting graphic tees, I need some tighter ones.

This skirt doesn't have pockets, but how cute is it if it did? I have no idea what I was going for with this picture.

And of course for the silly pictures of the day.

I'm really digging this lipstick...and you know what it's every color I own...okay not every color, but I started out with one color, didn't like so added another color, didn't like that, so I added some gloss...and this what you see here. I have no idea what combo it was, darn it.

I'm also linking up with Shay and Erica for Workin' It Wednesday and  Erin for 10 on the 10th for my 10 summer must haves.

1. Tulle skirt, duh. I think it's a fun piece to add to your wardrobe. Fun for a date night, Spring or Summer wedding, or a just because. Mine is no longer available but I found this one and then I found this full length one that I might have to get...so pretty!


2. Water Bottle. - Mr. Just bought these and they are magical. Seriously, I have no idea how it works, but it keeps water cold FOREVER. Like the other day I filled it up with ice water for soccer (think Saturday at noon), then Sunday at 10pm, so 32 hours later and the water was still cold! No ice, but the water was cold. They sell them at Costco for a lot cheaper. I also bought 28oz water bottle from the same company but it closes completely and keeps everything cold too. A must have, so now I can keep the water in the hot car over the summer and it will still be cold when I get back in!

3. Flamingo Pool Float and Unicorn Pool Float

4. Cute hats are a must with the sunny weather coming our way. I like this straw one, but the striped one is super cute too. But sometimes a baseball cap or two or three comes in handy when you're having a dirty hair day.

5. Some cute summer dresses like this, this or  this

6. What's summer without a cute bathing suit? Target is killing it with the clothes this season. I have my eye on a few, waiting for the coveted BOGO sale. I have this and this suit and get so many compliments when I wear them. The only problem with those suits are that they aren't functional for swimming. So this year I'm going to get a couple that I can actually swim and play in the pool with the kids, I think this and this fit the bill.

7. What's a perfect Summer day without the perfect make up? I just bought  bunch of summer make up from Tarte and am loving all of it! I wrote about it on Monday and also made a haul video go check out all of the goodies I got.

8. Then what are you going to wear with your dresses and swim suits? Sandals of course! I think these fit the bill nicely.

1 // 2 // 3 // 4 // 5

9.  Of course you're going to need some sunnies to keep the eyes shaded. These blue aviators remind me of Shauna from Lipgloss and Lace.  These green retro sunnies are super cute too.

10. How could I not put sunscreen on the list? Or something with sunscreen in it. CC cream, BB cream (the one I use), or Tinted SPF moisturizer for those days you are going to the beach and don't want a full on foundation. Anything to help keep your face pretty and cancer free.

Fashion Files Jean Vest

Happy Wednesday Foxy Friends! Today is the first Wednesday in May which means the ladies over at The Blended Blog are starting a new series called Fashion Files. Where you find an outfit that you want to recreate or gives you some inspiration and style that.

I decided for my first look I decided to try and find something to style my jean vest with. I've really only styled it twice, here and  here.

I went to pinterest and found this pin. I thought, I have all that stuff, I can do that.

I put it together...and I'm thinking I might need to get a longer vest. It's just not quite there for me. Sometimes you win at outfits and sometimes you don't. Perhaps I need to grow 6 inches...

This is the shirt that I got in Vegas when I went to the blogging conference with The Blended Blog ladies.

I just discovered Anne from  Anne In Residence and she hosts a monthly currently where she gives you the topics to talk about. This month her guest host is Nancy of NY Foodie Family and the questions are:

Baking: Sadly nothing. I did make some chocolate chip cookies the other day for a work friend who I accidently prevented him from going to his birthday lunch, so to make up for it I made him cookies. All was forgiven...actually it was just a bonus for him, he was never that upset to begin with.
 
Listening: I don't have much time to listen to the radio now and days, but I'm loving this guy on YouTube.

These guys are putting out a lot of content, loving this version of this song.

Loving:
Just discovering the boomerang app. I know I'm the last to jump on board, but it's so fun! Expect some more posts about this app.







Remembering:

Last April and meeting up with some of The Blended Blog ladies in Vegas and being so excited that I finally get to hug them again in 16 days. We've only been planning this since our last trip together...13.5 long months!

Thanks for continuing to link up with us! You are what is making this successful. Keep posting and meeting new people!
