A Superbowl Look For The Not So Superbowl Fan

Rugby shirt, boyfriend jeans, beanie, and polka dot keds

All my friends and family know very well that I am not a sports person. I played soccer in 5th grade and we lost every game. I played softball in 6th and I spent more time kicking the dirt in the outfield and ducking from the ball than I did with a bat in my hands. Let’s just say, I’m not coordinated. So, needless to say, when it comes to the Superbowl I know what’s going on just about as well as I know what’s happening in a Korean film…..absolutely not at all. I love the commercials and I love to hang out with friends and have parties, but watching the game….not so much.

I’m much more interested in the food that’s going to be served and what I’m going to wear, than who wins…so we’re going to talk about Superbowl party fashion today:) My goal here was to be casual, while still looking cute and put together. I figured a striped shirt in the color(s) of your team would be a safe bet for those of us who don’t have team shirts or jerseys. I don’t know who is in the Superbowl this year, much less the colors of the teams, but for today’s example let’s say that its maroon! I paired my striped shirt with my boyfriend jeans and some polka dot Keds- you know me, always have to be pattern mixing! Wearing your hair down always helps to dress an otherwise very casual outfit and a hat makes every outfit complete in my opinion! What do you think sports fan? Do I look ready to cheer on the maroon team?! lol!

I found this adorable football bracelet at Charming Charlie and actually bought it for my friend Chelsea who is a HUGE Packers fan. From the angry texts I was receiving this weekend I take it they aren’t going to make it to the Superbowl, but she can always wear it next year! I hope everyone has a wonderful Wednesday! Thanks you all for stopping by!

All That Glitters Baby

I’m starting a new adventure! No, I’m not pregnant. Just had to get that out there first thing since I’ve had a lot of questions about it when explaining my new projects. I have opened up an Etsy shop called All That Glitters Baby! I have had so many friends and acquaintances get pregnant or have babies lately that I can hardly keep up with all of the baby gifts. I started looking on the internet for gift ideas and finally just decided to use my crafting skills for good and make some of my own gifts. Well, after a lot of comments on how cute my gifts were and how talented I was <bats eyes> I decided to start selling my creations for other people as well! So, here you have it, a sneak peak at what’s waiting for you over at my Etsy shop!

Sailor Stripes & Gold Polka Dots

Layered pearls with gold dots top

It has been an absolutely BEAUTIFUL last couple of days here in Austin! The sun is shining, the temperatures are up, and everyone seems so much happier! I really do believe that it is true that sunshine is good for the soul! I don’t know how I ever lived in the north with all of those dreary, snowy days for months at a time. I salute those of you who still do it! Haha! I was so happy to be able to break out some of my warmer werather clothing this weekend and this outfit was perfect for the sun!

This outfit is one of my new faves! I wore it on Sunday and I am wearing parts of it again today…don’t judge! Haha! I have gotten so many compliments on this t-shirt every time I step foot out the door in it! It’s funny how adding something as simple as polka dots makes a plain white t-shirt into something AMAZING! I love it, and it was worth every penny:) I have been all about the pearls lately, and of course I had to wear my adorable Sweet & Southern Things monogrammed bracelet with the ensemble to make preppy even preppier. You guys really should jump on these, monograms will never go out of style and they are handmade! She even has adorable monogrammed jewelry dishes too! Well, if you are lucky (unlike me) and you have the day off I hope you are enjoying your day! If not, chug on through that work day and treat yourself tonight since you had to work and no one else did! Haha!

Fit Friday: Albion Fit Floral

Albion Fit Floral Pants

I don’t know whether it was the name of the company or the petal pants that drew me in to Albion Fit to begin with (I went to Albion College). Well, whatever it was I can tell you right now, I am hooked. I have been staring at these floral work out capris on the website and on other people’s instagram accounts for months. I just think they are the cutest pants in the world and I needed them in my life. The price point made me cringe a little bit, but after a bit of googling to find a blogger or site somewhere with a discount code I finally found one for 15% off and went immediately to check out. Score for Megan! Not only are they adorable, but they are SO comfy too! I already have the petal pants (as you can see in this post and this post) which are some of my favorites, so I knew that these ones would be just as comfy and wonderful! I am in love.

New, pretty work out clothes just make working out more fun to me. Even when I’m running alone in my neighborhood or down by the lake, just knowing that my work out clothes are adorable makes me smile. I know it’s stupid, but to each their own, eh? If that helps me get motivated to get my butt movin’, then I’m gunna do it:)

What keeps you motivated to work out each day?

PS: The wireless headphones are awesome! No more yanking my headphones out of my ears when I flail around while running!

Happy hump day! I cannot believe it is Wednesday again already! It really is true that the older you get the faster it goes. <sigh> Week two of project get healthy has been going pretty well. I have been eating much better foods than usual and less of them. I can already feel an increase in my energy level, now if only I could get rid of these allergies so I could get a whole 8 hours every night! Our gym STILL hasn’t opened yet which I am really annoyed about, but it should be soon fingers crossed!Pattern mix- plaid blanket scarf with striped shirt Plaid and stripes pattern mix- love this blanket scarf Plaid blanket scarf with a striped top Zara look a like blanket scarf with a striped top Pattern mixing and a monogram necklace Gold monogrammed necklaceGet The Look:

This outfit is perfect for the weather we have been having in Austin lately. It has been BEYOND cold for Texas and I have not been enjoying it. This scarf has been my savior for those frosty mornings in my car on the way to work. I tried to hold off on getting a blanket scarf until I really felt like I needed it, and boy am I glad I have it now! I hope everyone is staying warm wherever you are! Have a great day and thanks for reading!
