TOP (size up) / SKIRT / BOOTIES (LOVE THESE!!) / WALLET / SUNGLASSES 

Do these booties not make your legs look SO long??  You’ve gotta have these babies for Fall.  HUGE HUGE staple.  They come in tan, and I’m eye balling the shit outta those.  It’s an investment, but I will tell you that I don’t blow my money on dumb shit…. (saying shit a lot today haha)  No really, I don’t.  I’ve been there and done that.  I really take the time to think about what I’m spending on.  I guess that happens with age, right? 🙂 

I love spending a little more on shoes, because you can wear the same pair of shoes with multiple outfits, verses spending $100 on a top.  And they’re harder the wear down verses a top, because when you wash tops sometimes they change (annoying right)… so the shoes are my thing.  If it’s a olive, tan, black or grey pair bootie, you’re set for the whole season including Winter.    Fall fashion is my favorite!!  I love spending on staples during this time because they’re always the best and versatile.

If you haven’t noticed, I’m not really a bag girl…. I just don’t see the point in blowing $$$ on bags.  Don’t get me wrong, I love a good bag, but thats not the first thing on my mind when I want to splurge on something.  Boots are on my mind, and my new thing… rugs & plants :).  Again, I guess that happens with age? haha.  Now I’m rambling, but you guys get me.  Take the time to think if you really want it and don’t blow money on things that are versatile & statement pieces.  Spend money on things that are, and spend less on things that you won’t wear often.   

Have a good day!  Headed to work on my new meal plan for you guys!

MY MORNING SMOOTHIE: FAB 4

THE FAB 4 SMOOTHIE… where do I even begin about this amazing smoothie.

WELL.. if you guys follow me on my IG stories and snapchat you know that I drink this baby every morning. 

Lets back it up here, I recently found Be Well By Kelly.  @bewellbykelly on instagram and saw her Fab 4 smoothie Idea and FELL IN LOVE with her & the smoothie.  She’s so informative and knowledgeable when it comes to health.  

Her fab 4 smoothie gave me loads and loads of ideas for smoothies.  I’ve been drinking and testing out tons of different recipes all Summer long, and I’ve got one I want to share with you now!  I love this one, and hope you do too.  

So why do I love it so much?  Well, it keeps me full and satisfied longer, also starts my day off on the right foot, so I’m always reaching for good things throughout the day.  It helps control your blood sugar levels so they don’t spike soon after eating, therefore making you feel like you want all the carbs.

What does Fab 4 Smoothie mean?  

“The #bewellsmoothie is a formula to help you develop a blood sugar balancing meal replacement shake in any flavor with enough protein, fat and fiber to keep you full. Many juice shops, grocery smoothie bars and smoothie recipes are loaded with sugar, specifically fructose sugar from excess fruit. Fructose sugar stores as fat 20-30% faster than glucose. The #bewellsmoothie limits fructose to 1/4 cup. 

#FAB4Smoothie : Protein (20g min) + Fiber (10g min) + 1 Tbsp. Fat + Handful Greens + 1/4 Cup Fruit + Superfoods + Liquid

There is the formula!  I’ve followed this every single morning the whole Summer, and I can honestly tell you it works!  I used to eat breakfast and feel STARVED after an hour, now I eat and feel satisfied for a good 3-4 hours before I eat again.  

I never crave anything sugary or carby (carby?) haha yep carby.  So if you’re looking to shed some LB’S and trying to keep satisfied, try it out!  I will keep sharing my smoothie ideas with you on my stories, so make sure to follow along.

Try it for yourself & let me know how you like it!
