Thanks for stopping by my Wordless Wednesday Link Up!  You may notice it’s been a while since I’ve had one, so I figured I should jump back in.  I miss all of my fellow Wordless Wednesday bloggers!  If you’re curious as to why I haven’t been blogging, and to get to know me better, you can read my last post: The Worst Blogger Ever.

These pictures were from a birthday party that Baby B went to while I was away at a SITS Girls Mini Boot Camp Conference in Chicago.  More on that later, but I’m happy that he had such a great time.  Doesn’t look like he missed his Mama at all!  Read more...

The Worst Blogger Ever

The Worst Blogger Ever

As I’m sure you’ve noticed, if you have still been visiting, that I have been a terrible blogger as of lately.  I feel like I’ve been letting down my readers and my sponsors, and I feel like a complete failure for not keeping up.

I’m going to share something very personal here, which I usually don’t do, but I want you all to get to know me and understand me a bit better.  I suffer from depression, and it affects my entire life.  I am medicated, but I still suffer from intense mood swings and often feel like I am in over my head with everything I have going on in my life.  Read more...

Summer Style Tips: How to Find the Right Beachwear for Your Body Shape

How to find the best beachwear swimwear swimsuit bathing suit for your body shape

With spring in the air, now could be a great time to think about your summer beachwear – particularly if there’s a girly getaway or a romantic escape on the cards. The right attire is a must if you’re jetting off into the sun, so here’s how to dress for your body shape.

Athletic

You might not be the most buxom babe on the planet, but you don’t need a breast augmentation to enhance your assets. That’s right, padded tops can do wonders for your chest and ruffles and frills will add interest around your cleavage. If you’re athletic, a bikini will also break up the straight line of your torso and help flaunt the subtle curves you do have. Ring-top bandeau styles are wonderfully attractive and bright, floral patterns can add a cute, feminine touch.  Read more... (517 words, 1 image, estimated 2:04 mins reading time)
