Wetsuit + Summer Inspiro

Finally! A new wetsuit! Wanna see?

If you use a plastic bag over your feet your legs will glide right in, BTDUBS. It's still warmer than hell in one outside of water, hence my "hurry up and take the picture" face at my boo.


I decided to curl my hair for work...it just looked messy by the end of the day. I think it's haircut o'clock. I need some ideas--Pinterest it is!

Here's my summer inspiro: links on my Pinny

Summer Movie Craving and a lil' Miss Utah Redemption

Miss Utah gets redeemed, a little too late but she offers a much better answer than her first one:

Visit NBCNews.com for breaking news, world news, and news about the economy

Also, I want to watch more De Sica films this summer. My favorite is Bicycle Thief/Thieves: 

The little boy, Bruno, is super adorable. You just want to hug him and tell him everything will be okay! 

I miss Italian cinema so much. I took a whole semester studying it, and it did not disappoint. Try out Bicycle Thieves if you want to see why it's the bee's knees. Seriously, the cat's meow! Plus, with subtitles, you will learn to speed-read, which has been a huge bonus in my life. Summertime is when you don't want to move around because it's so hot, so a movie and a cold iced tea are the perfect combo. I might make these bad boys too, they sound (and look) so good!

Summer Goal: Watch all of De Sica's films this summer, join me boos!! 

Any summer plans/projects for you?

Bikini Season Bootcamp Part One: The Beginning

After attempting (and failing) to get into a khaki pencil skirt that I fit into just one month ago, I realized it's going to take more than just light jogging to get in shape for bikini season. I need to shift some of my food choices, plus do a little more exercise. I already eat pretty healthy, I just need to curb a few bad habits, and get my booty moving on the daily. Here's my plan:


Eat this not that:

-Oatmeal with cinnamon for breakfast, not cereal. I just use quick oats and add skim milk. I find I don't miss the sugar, but you can add a little Splenda/sweetener if you want. 

-Mixed nuts instead of candy. Costco has some great mixes right now, PS.

-Eating fish at least once a week. This is hard because my boo is allergic, so I have to grab some sushi or fish tacos on my own. Usually it's a lunch meal.

-Switching to all natural coffee creamer, such as Natural Bliss in Sweet Cream. Read your labels, your creamer should only be cream. 

-Eating fruit every day. I hate bananas, but I eat one a day. Or I try to eat an apple. 

-Swap my chip intake with Greek yogurt. 

-Drink less soda. I used to avoid the stuff, but my boo got me addicted again! (Not really, I just caved, but it's nice to blame someone else for your vices, right?)


Keep track of my water intake:
-I'm aiming for 60-80 ounces per day. I've heard a few different rules about your daily recommended water levels, so I just try to sip all day long and get as much in me as I can, without feeling like I just drank the ocean.

-Tea and lemon wedges are nice additions to plain water too.


Getting up at 6:30am to do this:

Or this:

on Refinery 29

Running, 3-4 times a week, for 1-2 miles. Then a huge run on Saturday.

-I'm going to try to run on the beach on the weekends. All I need now is a playlist to get pumped up to!

Feel free to join in with me, and read up on the Anti-Diet by The Londoner, she's got the healthy-living lifestyle down pretty well!

Summer Lovin' Shopping List

Summer shopping guide slash wish list! I'm going to Fresno this weekend for my husband's brother's graduation from law school and of course I'm going to the mall. There aren't any malls around SLO-town, so I gotta soak them in when I'm in Fresno. Here's what I'm craving:

1. Skirts from Zara

1 // 2 // urban blazers // urban vests (not pictured, too many!)
