LET'S GET PHYSICAL!

There are only eight days left in the month of February and if you haven't kept up with your New Year's Resolution to stay fit....here's your reminder. For a few months now I've just been trying to find ways that I can become more active in my day-to-day. Being active was so much easier when I worked in retail and stood on my feet all day but now that I sit at a desk staying active is proving to be harder than I thought. One thing that gets me motivated to stay fit is cute active wear (HA!). I know, I know, but hey whatever works :). Check out some of this cute active wear and 'Let's Get Physical'!

VDAY BEAUTY MUSE - RITA ORA

If you have plans with your love this evening to celebrate Valentine's Day but haven't quite figured out your makeup look check-out my VDay Beauty Muse - Rita Ora and how to get her look below.

I love that this look is very subtle and effortless. Bringing the blush up to the temples and using the blush on the eyelids gives it a more romantic look.

WEEKLY STYLE LUST: SEA BY MONIF C.

WHAT'S GOT ME LUSTING? I am a complete sucker for tribal prints. I love print and color mixing with tribal designs. I also love that this week's lust is a plus sized brand because there is still a huge gap in the fashion world when it comes to cute and trendy items for full figured women. Depending on the sizing and cut of some items I am right on the cusp of regular women's sizing and plus sized clothing. The Havanna Swimsuit pictured here at the right is definitely my fave of this collection. 

WHY SHOULD YOU BE LUSTING? 

- DUH! Tribal prints (haha)

- Trendy cuts like high waist, cut-outs, and asymmetric designs

- Flattering for curvy figures
