  • Happy Hump Day!! Week days always feel so long right after the holidays. But if you look at it this way- there are technically only two more Wednesday’s before Christmas! 🤗 Heading to the mall today to pick out some holiday outfits! What are your go-to outfits for work parties? 🎉
  • #tbt 🏋️‍♀️ Back to fitness goals after 4 months of being out of it. Shingles, Ear Surgery, Move, Flu, Ear infections! Time to focus on HEALTH and ease my way in to a routine before the new year. Lord knows this bod needs it! 🧘‍♀️I’m checking out my girl @ledsgetfit December Challenge. A great way to slowly adjust back into the daily grind without tons of pressure. She’s made it super easy breaking it down week by week. I’m drinking more water each and every day and getting my steps up! 2020 goals starting early....no excuses ✨

  • Thanksgiving: A day spent with family and friends celebrating all we have and all that we are thankful for. Sending love to those around us🥂 . vs. . . Black Friday: (Literally the next day)Spending your entire paycheck on stuff you could live without yesterday. Standing in line and pushing and shoving the people around us 👍🏼 . . Good luck to all your wallets and may you have a Happy Thanksgiving! 🍂🍃🍂
  • Tons of questions about this Limited Suede Jacket. 🧥Currently $51 (that’s $70 off!) and one of the best deals I’ve seen so far. I’m wearing a size medium here, and just bought this for my mom as well. Perfect for ladies of all ages + sizes whether you buy it as a gift or for yourself! I’ve linked it again in this pic through the @liketoknow.it app so you can shop it instantly! ✨
  • Sometimes I write “Drink Wine” on my to-do list just so I can feel like I accomplished something 🍹 . . My Fall Harvest Sangria along with the Oreo Pudding recipe are now on the blog! Perfect for the holidays and entertaining it may possibly be my favorite this year. Inspired by the sweet aromas of Fall like Apple, cinnamon, and Vanilla. It reminds me of the simple and good things in life- Hot mugs of cider, baked apple pie, eating a ripe pear, and sipping a glass of wine round a hearty meal. Building upon the warming flavors of the season, it reminds us of all the homegrown pleasures of Fall🤗
  • Friendsgiving was a success and so were these pudding cups I literally made everyone eat even though they were full 🤗 Lots of questions about this sweater which is sold out but you can join the waitlist or shop @vestique new arrivals!! Use code AMANDAJ for 10% off ! Posing dupes for you later this evening. Happy Monday friends 💫
  • Pudding this recipe up on the blog very soon 😉 stay tuned for this Godiva Chocolate & Oreo Pudding. It’s so easy to make, under $15, and the perfect dessert for entertaining! 🤤
  • Should I celebrate Friday by buying this gold skirt? Yep, okay done. 💫 . . Already snagged this top- aka the coziest sweater ever. I’ve got a million things to do before Friendsgiving tomorrow but your girl still wants to look gooood. So naturally I’m headed out to @vestique ✨ Shop this entire outfit 10% off with code AMANDAJ. Linked in @liketoknow.it . TGIF YALL!!
