Headbands

I am loving the look of a headband right now. It's an easy way to style my hair on day 2 or 3 (after washing and styling). As a busy mom it nice to have a fun, go-to accessory for my hair to make me feel more put together, even if I only have a few minutes to get myself ready for the day!

Made this headband with my sister using 2 different cloth headbands and tying them together. We had fun creating them after being inspired by some DIY tutorials we watched.

What ways are you using a headband or turban to style your hair? I'd love to see your styles and comments!!

Kale protein breakfast shake

As a nursing mom I need to make sure I am getting enough lean protein, calcium and veggies in my diet.  So I like to start out my day with a yummy smoothie filled with lots of great nutrients.

Kale protein smoothie: 
I scoop protein powder (I like chocolate)
I cup vanilla almond milk
I tbs natural peanut butter (Trader Joe's)
I cup raw Kale
I Banana (I freeze and slice it before hand)
A pinch if cinnamon 

Blend and enjoy! But don't let the green color turn you off, I promise it's yummy!! All the flavors together add a subtle sweetness and it will keep you feeling full until lunch.

Try it out! Let me know what you all think.

Pattern Mixing


Spring time is here and it's time to bring out your floral prints. Try mixing them with a stripe in a similar color. This is a fun and unexpected way to style this spring wardrobe staple!
