Alive and Well - Plus Size Daily Outfit

Yes, I am alive.  
I have not been a very good blogger lately.  I started school last week and have been preoccupied with getting things together for my first clinical day tomorrow, on top of trying to get a head start on the ton of assignments I have to finish.  So I've been back to yoga pants and t-shirts for most of the week.  

Jimmy did take me out to dinner tonight though, and I asked him to snap my picture on the way into the restaurant. 

 Check out that sky! 
Outfit Details:
Chambray Button-up - OneStopPlus
Gray Ruched-sleeve Cardi - Avenue
Dark Denim Jeggings - Old Navy
Black Oxfords - Target
Gunmetal Gray Handbag - gift from sis-in-law
Jeweled Bracelet - Avenue
Jeweled Bib Necklace - Modcloth


I wanted to share with you guys that I have decided to join Weight Watchers again.  Partly to lose some weight, but mostly to feel better in my body.  The past few years I have gained over 50lbs (yikes!) and have had very poor exercise habits.  I did WW, along with working out at the YMCA, before my wedding back in 2008 and lost about 20lbs, but more importantly just felt better.  I had more energy, felt better in my clothes, and had more confidence. Jimmy and I are also thinking about children in the not-so-distant future and I would like to be as healthy as possible when I start trying to conceive.  Jimmy and I are also planning on joining the YMCA again to start getting into a regular exercise routine.  
I just wanted to share, because I know that many of you probably have gone through or are going through similar struggles, and hopefully we can help each other out when motivation is low.

Tuesday. . . er. . . . Wednesday Temptations!

Here's another round of Tuesday Temptations! (Maybe I should call it "Wednesday Wants"?) 

#1.  Margeaux Dress from Lucie Lu
I have never tried anything from Lucie Lu, but this dress makes me want to.  I love the pin dots on the ruffles and sash, and I think it's wonderful that a smaller retailer is offering plus sizes up to a 5x! 

#2.  Claudette Hat from ModCloth
I love the vintage look of this and the floral accents are fantastic!

#3.  Faux Leather Ponte Skirt from Avenue
 How sexy is this skirt?!


#4.  Buckle Cardigan from One Stop Plus
I love the leather details that are everywhere right now. 


#5.  Some Fall Weather!  
C'mon mother nature, cut me a break!  I'm sick of 85 degree weather.  Bring on the 50's!
