Hello, great friends of the internet! It’s back in the 80’s here in Cbus and my body is a tad bit confused. Better than snow, though!
Breakfast
I woke up craving savory, so eggs it was! Two organic fried eggs plus two slices of Trader Joe’s sprouted wheat berry bread with avocado, everything bagel spice, and micro greens from our CSA. Coffee in my beloved Yeti mug!
Lunch
Lunch was Alchemy Grandview’s Fiesta Green salad (spinach, arugula, black beans, charred pineapple, ancient grains, blue corn tortilla chips, avocado, and cilantro lime hemp dressing) with smoked salmon. So yummy!
Afternoon fuel was a smoothie with banana, blueberries, turmeric latte spice, almond butter, spinach, chocolate plant protein, and almond milk. Tastes kinda like a graham cracker!
Dinner
I made this Tamale Sheppard’s Pie for dinner on Sunday because I had tons of tomatoes to use up and it was great! I loved that it made a huge pan to last us for dinner a few days. I had two helpings plus unpictured salad.
Dessert
Pumpkin cookies! I used my Banana Zucchini Cake Cookies as inspiration and subbed pumpkin for the banana, added a bunch of pumpkin pie spice, and added maple syrup to make up for the sweetness in the banana. So soft and yummy!
Style Inspiration
Lots of exciting things happening in the style department! First, LOFT had a 50% off everything online sale through Monday evening so I’ll post my favorites from the sale below. Unfortunately the sale is no longer going on, but there are some other sales.
comfiest gray drawstring dress (runs very large, wearing XS), would be super cute with these sneakers
faux leather skirt (my fave item from sale, runs large), ruffle utility blouse
green zip pocket leggings (TTS), ruffle utility blouse (runs large)
star wrap dress (fits TTS)
pleated utility blouse (runs large)
J Crew is also having a 40% off sale with code BIGSALE. These ankle boots in melted caramel and these velvet pointed toe slides are on my favorites list!
I rocked my favorite plaid ruffle flannel and green utility jacket (both from Nordstrom Rack last year) at Catawba Island last weekend. Also totally buying this yellow cable knit sweater for fall!
One more look! My top and jeans are both from Madewell and are up to 30% off right now with code ONYOURMARK. Details: my favorite black jeans, denim wrap top (here’s a similar star one on sale from J Crew), tassel hoop earrings, and black booties.
If you have any questions on sizing, don’t hesitate to leave me a comment and I’ll respond as quickly as I can. Have an amazing Wednesday!
I really like the pleated utility blouse you’re wearing! The colour is beautiful! 🙂
