Day Movie Date and Selma

Day Movie Date and Selma

One of my goals this year was to get out of the house and stop being a homebody. It’s hard because I love to just lounge around, cuddle with my husband, and do stuff in the house. My husband loves to go to the movies but since I never want to go he stopped going as well. Yesterday I surprised him when I asked him if he wanted to go to the Movies to see the newly released Selma.  We decided to go to an earlier movie in the afternoon so I could get some errands done afterward. Usually I…

How I scored my first pair of Valentino RockStud Pumps for almost half the Price.

Usually, my husband only allows me to splurge on household items or electronics. There are only two things that I seriously want right now, and that’s a 27inch iMAC and a pair of Valentino Rockstud pumps.

OOTD-Cute in Camo

Military life runs in my family. My dad is a retired US Army Colonel and many other uncles also served their country. I did a small stint of Army ROTC while in college but quickly realized that it wasn’t for me. Though I gave up my BDU’s I still can’t help but love camo so when I spotted these Camo Twill Pants at Loft I just knew I had to have them. Since I’m a curvy gal LOFT Marisa cut jeans fit me perfectly, though I’ve had to painstakingly  learn that it’s not about the actual size on the jeans…
