One of my intentions for 2020 was to prioritize my recovery more than my workouts. On average I workout 5-6 days a week ranging from dance cardio, yoga, running, HIIT workouts, sculpting, boxing, and more. As a dancer my mindset is to keep going, push through the pain and injury. Unfortunately, my body no longer allows me to push through. From my neck to my feet I have issues from inflammation in my muscles to joint pains. As I get older I need to be smarter about taking care of my body if I want to continue to exercise. And I want to be that little old lady in your pilates class who is keeping up with the movements.

Dark Florals

A print that I will forever gravitate towards is florals. Even when it comes to my decor, florals are the main theme throughout my all-around aesthetic. One of the top trends, a fashion takeover of this season, is dark florals. From dresses to skirts to jumpsuits, from designer brands to fast-fashion, this quintessential summer print is now moody and dark. It’s a variety of bold blooms on a dark background that makes your winter wardrobe feel feminine.
Friday’s Simply Smitten
“stop letting who you were talk you out of who you’re becoming”
-The Female Hustlers
Happy Friday! New York Fashion Week has officially begun! It doesn’t feel like it is NYFW. Winter fashion week is much more relaxed than the one in September. Still, even after getting invites and already attending a preview and a presentation, it doesn’t feel like it’s fashion week. Maybe it is because I went into it knowing I didn’t want to attend as many shows as I normally would. It may also be because I didn’t do my normal preparation for the week– nails and hair done, planning/buying outfits. Although it does not feel like its NYFW, I am still excited for the shows I am going to!
A Casual Valentine’s Day Look

Last week I posted a Valentine’s Day outfit guide. What to wear for any type of Valentine’s Day date or celebration. Today lets talk about a more casual V-Day look. Valentine’s Day does not have to be this huge romantic, cocktail attire affair. It can easily be grabbing a slice of pizza and going for a walk around the city. It really does not matter what you do, it’s who you are celebrating the day with that matters. But even if you do not have a special significant other, you can still wear your favorite pink top on the day of love.
