All Gussied Up

Things are going to get VERY bridal here. Not in an annoying way (I hope), but in a fun way. We are 20-something days away from our wedding (holy shit!), so things are kicking into HIGH gear all the way around.

I feel like I’ve planned this wedding in a couple of months…after being engaged for over 2.5 years. Thriving under pressure!

My bridal shower was a few weeks ago, and as a bride to be, I wanted to wear white, of course, but also be a little non-traditional. So I went for a jumpsuit.

There are so many occasions as a bride where you’re kind of expected to wear all white: an engagement party, bridal shower, engagement photos, bachelorette parties, and the list goes on!

If you’re an untraditional bride like I am, here are some chic WHITE jumpsuits for any bridal occasion:

Ashley and I first met at the gym a couple of years ago. I was a participant in her Booty Barre class while she was pregnant with her son, Brady. We soon made a connection over blogging: Ashley has been blogging over at A Lady Goes West over the last several years on healthy living. She has been named “40 Under 40” in the East Bay by Diablo Magazine, as well as “Blogger of the Week” by POPSUGAR and has been published and quoted on Mindbodygreen, Huffington Post, LIVESTRONG, Healthline, POPSUGAR and more.

Ashley is so knowledgable on all things fitness and wellness, and through her own experience, she became passionate about hormone healing after having hypothalamic amenorrhea.

Ashley came on the All Gussied Up podcast today where we talk about how to get into fitness, motivation tips, healing your hormones, clean beauty, and fertility. This one is SO value packed, and I know you are going to LOVE it.

Wedding planning. It’s no joke! We have less than 30 days until our wedding day (holy shit!), and I find myself constantly writing things down that I don’t want to forget. Real talk: I have done 80% of the planning within these last two months. LOVE a last minute deal.

SO: I made a couple checklists/printables for myself, and I’m sharing them with you today.

No outfit is complete without a pair of sunglasses. At least for me. Winter, Spring, Summer, and Fall, I’ve got a pair with me.

As much as I love a good pair of sunglasses, I can’t justify spending over $100 on them. Of course there have been exceptions to that rule, but they are very few and far between. There are SO many brands making similar styles to designer pairs for a fraction of the price. Plus, many designer pairs are made of the exact same materials as the “cheap” ones.

Since rocking a chic pair of sunglasses is one of the best ways to update your look, it’s another reason NOT to splurge on them. It’s so fun to keep up with the trends without breaking the bank, right?

SO- sharing with you guys some of my fave sunglasses of the moment below, including a few under $30 from Amazon (you know I love an Amazon score!).

Having confidence is essential. It’s also contagious – who doesn’t love to be around confident people?

My journey with confidence – and yes, it is a JOURNEY – always ongoing, has been messy. It hasn’t been in my experience where I can just ‘go out and meet new people’ and then wah-la, I’m more confident.

Working on my confidence has meant getting REAL honest and REAL raw with myself.

With that, please take a listen to this quick podcast episode.
