SWINGING WITH A DENIM JACKET
Is it Friday yet??? What a day yesterday was. I tried to keep busy all day so that I wouldn’t be thinking about food constantly. Why is it if you start a new diet that you can’t think about anything else than food? Thankfully, I kept busy with work and before I knew it the day had flown by. My first obstacle will be water consumption. Yuck, I hate water. I am trying to stay away from sugar and any kind of sugar substitute so I can’t have any of the flavor packets. Instead, today I added lemon slices and it was tolerable but still not good. Lol!
Joe is being a trooper about my diet even though I have not tried to force this on him. I fixed our breakfast this morning which usually has cheese but I told him that I wasn’t eating dairy. You could have knocked me over with a feather when he said then he wouldn’t have any either. Normally you can’t find the food under his pile of cheese that he has added. He ate it and pronounced it good. He is not fooling me, let’s see what tomorrow brings.
Yesterday I showed you a maxi dress styled with the denim jacket. It is only natural that I show you a shorter dress today. This is a swing dress from Old Navy, I love their swing dresses. They have a wide variety of styles including sleeveless, cap sleeve, and long sleeve. They also have petite and plus sizes to choose from. By the way, what do you think about my infinity scarf? I loved the colors when I spied this baby and hold on to your hats. I bought this scarf for 2.97! AND, so can you, this came from Walmart. I hardly ever buy clothing from Walmart but this happened to be on the end aisle that I was shopping in.
I have so many people that message me saying they want to join me in business but they are afraid of failing. Gurls . . . I know how you feel . . . believe me . . . I felt the same thing . . . but I have found that a fear of being broke, fear of staying in debt with no relief in sight and fear of not being able to live life to the fullest is greater than the fear of failure. I truly love the products from Rodan + Fields or I wouldn’t tell you about them. I truly love this business or I wouldn’t invite you to join me. I believe that this opportunity was put before me for a reason, just like I think the blog was started for a reason. Are “you” reading this for a reason? Go to www.tstephens5.myrandf.biz to check out the different enrollment kits. Really, what have you got to lose? You get great skin care products in the kit and the opportunity to have your own business.

Tania, think of it as a healthy eating lifestyle not a “diet”. Orange slices are good in water. Pinterest has a ton of ideas for flavored water without those packets. Love the jean jacket series. You always give me such great ideas.
Fabulous look!!!!
Day 2….you got this!!!
Love the scarf Tania!!! I have bought several tops at Walmart lately (Faded Glory brand) actually online that is not in the stores. I also bought a long sleeve burgundy swing dress at Old Navy ($14.95) which is due to arrive in the mail today….your scarf would look good with my dress? Congrats on taking the first step to your new healthy lifestyle as I usually do not say diet. I changed my way of eating 5 or 6 years ago and dropped 15-20 pounds and have kept it off. I set in mind that God’s word says my body is a temple and I have to take care of it….now do I still eat sweets, most definitely. What keeps it off is not wanting to go back to the way I was because I feel better and have more energy….and of course I do not want to buy bigger clothes and a new wardrobe. ~Lisa~
Try cucumber in your water. Put a jug of water with a a few chunky slices in it in the fridge and just pour a small glass. If you like cukes you’ll love cucumber water.
Yes, it’s really good! I also enjoy lemon slices, cucumber slices and mint leaves.
I was going to suggest mint leaves, too, or sometimes I thrown in basil leaves for a refreshing flavor. I don’t drink soft drinks, and I gave up juice 6 months ago, so adding some flavor to my water was essential!
Cute and I too have found some cute scarves at Walmart for cheap. Do you always wear your infinity scarves down like that? I always wrap mine again around my neck… didn’t realize they could be worn long!!
No, I don’t always wear them like this but I don’t like all the bulk up around my neck and face. I have a round face anyway and that just makes it look huge. By wearing it long it draws the eye down and makes my neck look longer. Also, then I can wear a necklace. Lol!
Well Tania that shows how much I “don’t know” about fashion !! I’ve just never seen a scarf worn like this so I hope I can step out of my comfort zone and try this 🙂
That Joe is a keeper. Any husband that helps support you in healthy habits has some true love for you. Lovin the denim jacket ensembles. Keep them coming!
Love this outfit, I have worn it! I have all the pieces and I also got my scarf (different print) at Walmart as part of a 2 pack for $4.97!
I’m gonna steal this ensemble! Love this for the fall
The scarf is perfect. Who would have thought Walmart and 2.97! I like this ensemble!
I’d call the color of your bag, blush. Very nice.
