Style Me Spring 2015 Challenge - Outfits 3 Thru 9

Hey, Hey! I'm back with the ladies, recapping our outfits for this past week. Click here for the previous outfits. There's a lot of outfits, so let's get to it.

Day 3

I love this shirt. When I got it in the mail, I knew right away that I was going to love it. I even like how high it comes up on the sides, although I probably should wear a tank underneath, I sort of like that some of my skin is showing...too risky for a Mom of 2? Naw, I'm going to live on the wild side. But I did find some awesome layer tanks at Target, I'll probably pick up a few more colors this week.

I just love the back side of it too.

Mini Fox just wanted a hug.

Day 4

I took so many pictures of this outfit you have NO idea! Actually I did two days of this outfit, because all of the pictures from the first time didn't look good, and I realized that it looked so much better buttoned and slightly tucked in. I thought this was one of my least favorite, but after I did some buttoning and tucking it's not so bad after all. Amazing what a little styling can do.

Day 5

I LOVE this top, I can't tell you how much I love it. It's super comfy and it's somewhat polka dotty...but it's swirly when you look really close, I love it. And of course it's sold out :( Sorry.
I should add a belt, but I don't know what kind, any suggetions. These jeans are also from White House Black Market and are the MOST comfortable things you'll ever wear...seriously. Worth the money!

The earrings are Kate Spade my Mom picked up at Nordstrom Rack, so cute right?

You might be wondering why I have this face?

Because I was being robbed!

This looks staged but it totally wasn't, he just walked up and did this and Mr. just captured the moment

Day 6

I have no idea why I didn't wear a necklace with this? Wasn't feeling it that day? Not really sure...wait I remember, it was because I had the earrings on, and I thought doing both would be too much, but then you can't really see the earrings, so maybe next time I need to wear my hair up. Hmmm....

Love these sandals, these are from DSW, from the Fall on Clearance, score!

Baby Fox wanted in the shot...and my eyes are closed, at least he's cute.

Better shot at the earrings

Day 7

My all time favorite, favorite outfit so far! I don't know what it is about this outfit that I love, but it's just awesome and I feel so put together and I love it, did I mention that I love it? The skirt can be found here...at Nordies of course and on sale for $22.80!

Day 8

This could really be a Fall staple, jeans, tee, scarf, bright flats, super easy but you look totally put together. What's your go to outfit?

Day 9

Slightly annoying that my necklace was off in these picture, my picture guy is fired! Just kidding Mr...it's so much easier to do pictures without having to get the tripod and remote...I'll keep ya around ;)

This shirt was one that Shaeffer at Pinterest Told Me To (well I got the 2013 version and I linked  you back to the 2014 version), made a must have shirt, and I have to say, yes you must have this shirt, it is really comfortable and comes in a ton of different colors.

Unexpected Results

You know I saw this outfit on someone's blog, and knew that I had to try it. And of course for the life of me I can't remember who's blog it was and of course I didn't pin it, darn! I did however tell that person I was going to try it. If I figure it out, I'll post it back. If it's you that had that outfit, let me know so I can give you a shout out!

When I came downstairs in this outfit, Mr. said...um, I'm not so sure about this one. But after he started to take the pictures, I think he came around. I absolutely love it, too bad it's getting way too hot to wear something this warm. But definitely on my list to wear if I go out for an evening with friends and it's slightly cooler than. Translation: anything lower than 70°.

Unexpected #1: I loved this outfit WAY more then I thought I would, and I think it might be the necklace pushing this outfit into the love category for me.

I think the necklace really gives it that punch that it needed. When I put the outfit on by itself it was just okay, but add the statement necklace and it punches it up a notch.

Wednesday fitness update:

I don't have much to update, since we were in Tahoe this past weekend, the diet sort of went out the window. Harder to eat the Slow Carb way with 10 other people around. That being said I was eating carbs like no other, specifically the chocolate chip cookies I baked before leaving. Boy were they yummy. And you know what I learned?

Okay this part is TMI, so skip down to the next paragraph if you don't want to know. But when I was eating all the carbs and fruits and stuff, it really stopped me up! I had no idea, I've always had issues, but didn't realize cutting out the carbs and sugars would seriously help me in that area. Thank you Slow Carb!

Okay back to regular talk, I also figured out with all the extra carbs that I felt super bloated. Like really bloated, I don't like that feeling. And thinking back I used to feel really bloated all the time, but just thought that was normal. Nope, not normal (for me at least).

We're in week 4ish, and so far so good. I sometimes am left feeling unsatisfied with what I ate, but that's okay, as long as I get my cheat day there is something to look forward to!

Not sure what I'm going to do for my cheat day this week...what to eat, what to eat. Going on a hike this Saturday, so for sure I'll probably stop at the bagel shop on the way home. Yum! Carb it up after the hikes, always helps.

Unexpected #2: Little to no carbs a week really helps my digestion...who knew!

What is unexpected in your life?

My New Obsession + Fitness Update

I think I have an obsession with this sweater. Seriously I wear it all the time. Perhaps I need it in more colors, so I'm not always wearing the same sweater? Loft, gotta hand it to you, it's the perfect length, weight, I love everything about it (sorry no longer available).

Fitness Update:

Another week gone...I'm beginning to think this diet might not be for me. In all honesty I just feel not satisfied with eating. Like I'm just eating to live and that's just no fun. But I am feeling pretty good, other then that. We'll see how I feel in a few more weeks. I think Mr. and I decided we're doing this until May 1st.

Half a pound lost. Mr. seems to think I'm getting more toned and my rib cage is slimmer, and I feel like my butt is really getting toned (which I'm sure makes Mr. happy, haha!) I think three weeks of something isn't enough time to really make a judgement. The first few weeks are probably when you're body is adjusting to whatever you're doing. Which is probably why a lot of people quite diets so early on into them. They aren't seeing the results. I wish I had taken measurements of everything, Oh well. I'll keep trudging alone.

Kid Pictures:

What's a post without some pictures of my kids?

Baby Fox showing off his hat he made in preschool. Love that smile.

Mini Fox with my Dad, they're doing "shhhhh, don't tell Mom I'm on a rock"

Picking a Dandelion

One of our neighbors commented on how she looks like a little doll, and I think I have to agree with them, especially with this outfit on.
