Mad Skills

Hi Ya'll,

If you've been looking for a side project to take or are looking to sharpen those mad creative, writing, fashion, or business skills then check out Skillshare. After taking a composition and web design course last year (very basic), I browsed their site today for new classes and they now offer a monthly subscription in addition to offering select courses for a fee. That's great news! I'm excited because I plan on taking a variety of crash courses rather than just 1 at a time. Although I work, workout, hangout and sometimes blog, I still have plenty of time on my hands and this seems like a great way to spend it. 

I plan on taking: 

Designing Brand Collateral: 

A Case-Study Tutorial with Abi-Haus Restaurant


Illustration and Lettering: 

A Hands-on Approach to Label Design


Reinvent Yourself in the Age of Creativity, Innovation, and Entrepreneurship


Start Drawing: Techniques for Pencil Portraits


There's a ton more so check it out.

Eating Clean among the S.A.D

Living healthy among the S.A.D.ers--the Standard American Dieters and the proliferators and advertisers of sugary fatty foods that continue to make us this way, is hard work especially when you're constantly faced with fast food, cake pop shops, and last years pumpkin latte (delicious, I know, but loaded with sugar). I'm loving every minute of the workouts and experimenting with new paleo options (who knew paleo pancakes and fudge would be so good!), but we all know that this lifestyle requires consistency, focus, dedication, and work! There are so many times I have had to talk myself out of eating a whole chocolate cake or binging on ice cream that my boyfriend loves to keep stocked in our freezer. Whenever I'm gifted cookies or chocolate around the office for a birthday or holiday I always accept, then turn around and re-gift them to someone else. To protect myself from cravings and added fats, I carry my protein shakes with me, share my homemade protein bars, and alway...

Fitness Gear

Hi Ladies, I found some fun fitness gear this week to jazz up your closet and keep you motivated.  I love treating myself to a new top or headphones every now and then and I would absolutely love a pair of the #5's, a sporty high heel by Adidas, so cute!! Check out the goods:  1. Android Galaxy watch . Receive calls and messages on your next run and sync it up with fitness trackers like mapmyrun. I know, awesome rite? 2. Sporty top that doubles as a sports bra. 3. Wireless headphones, because, well they're wireless.  4. Misfit Shine fitness tracker tan necklace. These little trackers can be worn alone, in a watch, or a cute necklace. Neat.  5. Adiddas high heels!!! Just throw these babies on with your workout outfit to quickly dress up your look.  6. Hot Gym Bag. I don't know about those of you watching tv at the gym, but I came here to work! 

Happy Weekend

Hello there, I hope everyone had a lovely week and is revving up for an amazing weekend! I had a full morning of meetings and interviews then a lovely late lunch at Lupe Tortilla with a skinny margarita and lettuce wrapped fajitas. I was in heaven. The patio was bustling with trays of sizzling fajitas, hand shaken margaritas, and a fire pit nearby. I might as well have been eating on the beach Once the margarita hit the table, I felt like I was instantly transported to a beach side cabana. I love me some fajitas and ritas :) This weekend my sister is coming into town for a visit. I'm so excited! Can't wait to catch up over a glass of wine. I may be fit, but wine is definitely in my diet right now. :)  Happy Weekend everyone! Enjoy yourself--you've earned it!
