Happiness

Gold dot tee with pink skirtLife lately has been hectic. Work has been busy, my shop has been busy, Wes and I have both been a little sick….and guess what gets put on the back burner? That’s right, the good old blog. I’m okay with it though. I’ve been posting 5 days a week for the last 2 years and I guess it’s just time to cool off a little. Step back and see where I want to take it all. If you haven’t noticed, I have been posting a lot more about food and health over the last few months a long with my outfit posts. I think that’s where All That Glitters is headed. What started as purely just style blogging, has taken a turn to lifestyle. I love to post all of my outfits and will continue to do so, but I want to talk about more than just style. Healthy eating and living is one of the biggest things in my life right now, so it just seems right to talk about it more and more here on the blog:)

Once we get to a point in our lives where kids are on the horizon, I’m sure you’ll see a little swing over into plenty of baby posts…but for now food, health, style, and my life in general is where its at! I hope you all stick around with me through this busy time in my life just as you always have in the past! I wouldn’t be here without you! :)

Of course I didn’t notice my belt being all wonky until I was done with photos…dammit! lol! But, anyways, this outfit just screams happiness to me. The colors are bright, there are gold polka dots involved…and the necklace is just that, pure happiness. No wonder the boutique it is from is called the Happiness Boutique! If my accessories all came from there I would be happy all the time:) Haha! This one has really caught my eye and I might be needing it before we make our trip to London this fall…

You see how I did that? Slipped in a trip to London without having ever mentioned it before? Haha! Well, we’re doing it! We’re making a trip to London and Paris later on this fall and I am BEYOND ecstatic! If you guys have any must dos (especially in Paris) let me know in the comments below!

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!

Shop Gold Polka Dot Items:

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!

What I Love About Christmas + Christmas Eve Outfits

Hi Lovelies!

I’m linking up with Hayley and Lauren again this week! Today’s link up is to tell your favorite things about the holiday season. I don’t even know where to begin with this one, because I love everything about the holidays! I think this one calls for a list….without further ado, my favorite things about the holiday season!

  1. Christmas shopping: I love getting gifts for other people. I love the look on their face when they open it, the hug I get afterwards, and just making other people happy. I do not, however, enjoy shopping in the big crowds. This year I did all my shopping online and it was wonderful!
  2. Decorating: I like to decorate in general…just ask my husband:) Decorating for Christmas, though, is extra exciting! I love making things all sparkly and glittery….Christmas lights belong on all the things!
  3. The family traditions: I have the best family and we have accumulated a lot of traditions over the years. We have certain movies we watch together, gifts we give each other, and little outings we like to go on. This year, I won’t be with my Mom and Dad, so Wes’ parents will have to help us make some new traditions!
  4. Christmas fashion: I like that around Christmas time gaudy becomes okay. Everything is glittery…everything is gold….everything is cozy and Christmasy! I have a few ideas for some glittery, lacy, Christmasy outfits that I want to wear on Christmas Eve, take a look:
