When it comes to health and wellness I am up for trying anything, at least once. From being a vegetarian to the Keto diet, I am still trying to figure out what works best for my body. As we get older our body changes. My food lifestyle, as I like to call it, needs to continuously evolve with the changes of my body. Unfortunately I have the type of body that can easily gain weight. I’ve never been one who can eat an entire pantry of food and not gain a pound. With this I know that I have to maintain a regular schedule of exercise and to eat a healthy diet. For the past year I have been indulging more than I have been eating clean, and it has really shown in how I feel and look. I know beautiful is not a number. I still wear a size 2 and I am sure most of my weight is muscle, but  two weeks ago when I went to the doctor for check up, I was shocked to see that I had gained weight since my last visit back in January. I was shocked because I was doing Intermittent Fasting for the past month and a half.

“don’t ever let other people decide who you are”

Happy Friday!! Even though it is raining outside right now these past fews have been the perfect weather, putting me in the best mood. Then to top it all off Taylor Swift released her new song and video ME! today and that just makes me so very happy!! From what I can tell from her Instagram and current image change, this new album is going to be about how in love and happy she is, dreamy eyed and hearts in the sky. I am excited for the new album but I am going to miss angry Taylor…… I love angry Taylor. You may have seen my Instagram Stories where I set an alarm for midnight last night so I can get up and listen/watch the video. Do I need a life? I was excited for it!  Anyway, Taylor always creates albums that really parallel with what is going on in my life. Her 1989 album about Harry– being in a relationship that keeps going back and forth where she ends up completely heartbroken, but ultimately finds herself in the end. GIRL did you read my diary?! Then she came out with Reputation where she basically said a screw you to everyone who has hurt her, didn’t support her, talked about her behind her back, to the people who were toxic for her and just said goodbye, moving on, I am strong. AND that is exactly how I felt at that time. I am curious to see if this new album coincides with what is going on with my life. Only time can tell.

Any bar can become a dance party if you try hard enough. It does not matter to me what type of bar I am in; hole in the wall pubs or a club with disco balls and strobe lights, if there is music there will be a dance party going on. Heck I throw myself a dance party weekly in my apartment alone. Anyway, even though you can shake your groove thing anywhere, not all bars are equipped with a designated dance floor. Here are a few of my favorite bars in Manhattan where you can really bust a move.

floral dress // sandals (similar) // circle bag c/o // sunglasses

Kate Spade has a way of taking something ordinary and adding a volume of drama to it. They create this drama with detailing, whether intricate or straightforward. This floral devore dress I instantly loved because of all of the detailing with the puffy sleeves, floral pattern, twist-knotted waist, and a just enough skirt to twirl around in.  Yet it seems subtle when you look at it, none of the dramatic detailing stands out. It seamlessly goes together.
