Date Night and Fashion Friday

Hey guys! How are ya? Happy {Fashion} Friday! What are you up to this weekend?

Thank you so much for the kind words on the pilot’s return. It feels *so.freaking.good* to have my love home again. He’s kind of fun, ya know? 😉

We went on a lovely date to Two Friends Cafe since it opened for dinner after the pilot left.

I had a redonk orange and basil cocktail.

I have no idea what was in it, but it was sweet, earthy, and beautiful.

For a starter, we shared the portobella mushroom with balsamic reduction and scallions– asked them to sub goat cheese for the mozzarella

I asked the server if I could please have a salmon salad with no cheese and balsamic on the side, even though it wasn’t on the menu. The executive chef, Randy, is incredible and always accommodates weirdos like me 😉

It made all of my salad dreams come true <3

We made a stop at the fireworks stand on our way home to get our supplies for the 4th, too 🙂

I just munched this bowl of chocolate cherry overnight oats:

 

-1/2 C oatmeal, 1 T chia seeds + 1 C almond milk, all soaked in a bowl overnight

-1/2 C frozen black cherries (defrosted in the bowl)

-1 banana

-1 T raw cacao powder

1/2 T maca

-Vanilla, Stevia and pinch of sea salt

+ a 2 egg white puff

 

I’m off to teach bootcamp and then we’re getting on the road to ORLANDO! Family, oven yoga, Whole Paycheck, Millennia Mall and civilization, here we come 😀

See ya this afternoon!

xoxo,

Gina

Something to do: It’s FASHION FRIDAY! Since so many of ya’ll asked me to write more about fashion, I thought it would be fun to throw this in the mix every now and again. Basically, I’ll pick one clothing style or accessory that I’m loving, write about it, and give ya some examples of where you can find it within different budgets.

Here’s one thing I’m loving right now:

Bold floral skirts!

I’ve bought 5 floral skirts already this summer (!)- they’re light and comfy 🙂 Perfect with gladiators for casual/day or can be dressed up with strappy platforms or booties.

This particular one is from Express and is on clearance right now (which always happens to me after I buy something for full price- it’s the physics of shopping).

What skirt styles are you loving? Floral, animal print, belted, peasant and safari are all HOT right now 😀

As far as the floral skirts go, this bold patterns and fun colors. 

Forever 21 has this super cute one:
