There’s nothing I like more than an all-white workout outfit. And nothing motivates me more to workout than a new outfit. Thank you Nordstrom for the awesome selection of activewear! This all-white workout outfit is super comfy and perfect for tennis with the kids (who have just started lessons), and a quick run. I love that Nordstrom makes returns so easy – so I’m able to order multiple sizes to try and return what doesn’t fit without leaving my house. What inspires you to workout? My piano teacher growing up once told me a nugget of truth I’ll never forget: “to begin, is to be half done.” While it’s not completely true, it sure motivates me to start. And sometimes that little push is all I need to hit the pavement.

Also, see my shop page for more workout selections.

Staying motivated with Nordstrom Activewear

by Shalice Noel October 30, 2016

written by Shalice Noel

Nothing beats a refreshing run on the bridge at golden hour. Although, if I’m honest, I’ll admit I get tired and easily bored with daily workouts. So tunes, new gear (hello cute Nike tank!) and changing up my routine are essential. So many of you have asked for my diet and exercise routine. While I will not go into much detail, the five minute explanation is this. I usually run 3 times a week and strength training 1-2 times a week. If I’m fighting the usual 5 lbs, I drink green and dandelion tea, lots of H20, snack on protein snacks like almonds (not empty carbs like chips) and eat balanced meals like rice and chicken (or fish) with veggies. I go easy on the carbs but always make exceptions for the dark chocolate. Everything in moderation, as Granny used to say. It’s tough to say no to a run with THIS kind of view AND new workout gear from Nordstrom. Style note: I included the sizes I ordered. Keep in mind, you can order multiple sizes and easily return the ones that don’t work out. Nordstrom is known for its amazing customer service.

Now, it’s your turn, how do YOU stay motivated to workout?

Nordstrom Date Night in OMBRÉ

by Shalice Noel October 28, 2016

written by Shalice Noel

I’m working with Nordstrom showing my favorite date night look. I found this under $200, ombré metallic dress from Topshop at Nordstrom. I happened to be wearing this dress when my hubby and I left the restaurant and were walking around downtown Pasadena. It was funny when 5 random people stopped me on the street to tell me how much they loved this dress and where’s it from. It’s funny, the pieces I’m usually on the fence on, usually end up being my favorite pieces! It’s no joke, Nordstrom always delivers with awesome date night dress options but great customer service. As for styling advice, do size up on the dress and add this moto jacket when the temps dip.

Black and Tan with Nordstrom

by Shalice Noel October 24, 2016

written by Shalice Noel

Don’t get me wrong, some of my favorite outfits are centered around a black moto jacket. However, I’m ready to ditch it for a hot minute while I try the tan version. I’m obsessed with camel, tan taupe, dirt brown, or however you like to call it. It goes with my ever-growing black-out wardrobe and looks great layered. Brown on brown, or dark brown on light brown, anyone? On this occasion, it was our day date; admittedly a rare occasion with work demands, late nights and let’s admit it, we’re just plain tired. So, we left the house for a date at Urth Caffé which included lots of coffee, boba, funky salads and some antique furniture exploring. Fun right? So, in between giving myself a break from the boyfriend cardi’s, and chunky knit sweaters, I’ll be wearing this tan version on repeat. ps. I just bought this cami to go underneath. Cheers to day dates, chillier days and lots of layers. Happy Fall!

The Ultra Flattering Trench

by Shalice Noel September 9, 2016

written by Shalice Noel

Few things in the fashion world excite me more than denim and trench coats. Here’s one of my favorite layer combinations: stripe turtleneck, trench, and denim cutoffs, minus the chunky knit of course. I will save the latter for my next trip to New York. Until then, I’m stocking up on striped turtlenecks for LA’s chill winter, which is mostly dry heat and overwhelming sun. I’m certainly not complaining. Happy Fashion Week guys! Stay tuned for a wrap up next week.

Lace & Suede

lace romper WILLOW & CLAY fits tts, I got a small. (I also like this one) :: suede moto BLANK NYC (sold out at press time) and SIMILAR :: suede vest :: pumps MIU MIU (I sized down):: bracelets KENDRA SCOTT (mine are gold)

Coming from Chicago, I’ve always loved a versatile suede jacket and this one is no exception. I love it paired with a lace romper and pumps. (These flats from Nordstrom also work if you can’t walk in heels all day). Thankfully, if in between sizes, Nordstrom’s customer service is unparalleled, and returns are swift and easy. I just wish Southern California gave me more reasons to wear all my favorite jackets.

Thank you Nordstrom for partnering on this post.

Leather x Bows

written by Shalice Noel

I just found the sweetest bow dress under $80. I paired it with an edgy leather jacket and buckle pumps. I plan to wear this ensemble to celebrate the hubs birthday this weekend, which will involve lots of dark chocolate desserts, Chinese food and homemade cards from the kids. All of his favorite things. Oh, and me in the bow dress, of course. Get the look from NORDSTROM who always pulls off awesome customer service while featuring one-of-a-kind finds – like this dress under $100. I also included other dresses from Nordstrom I like below.

Overall : what 70’s pieces you need now

written by Shalice Noel

If you know me well, I’m not huge into overalls, but I made an exception for these flared, über flattering version I paired with an off-the-shoulder top, clogs and a small tassel bag. What do you think? A 70’s upgrade to a classic farmer’s bibs. I guess you could say I’m converted.

Trapeze Dress

by Shalice Noel August 1, 2016

written by Shalice Noel

I recently stumbled upon the cutest trapeze dress. Its great with gladiators or these hiro heels. Special shout out to the hubs for choosing my shoes for the post. He said the pattern of the shoes matches the pattern on the dress. How’s that for an Architect’s opinion? Love him. I’ll definitely be sporting this swingy dress again to beat this Cali heat.

Work Out Wednesday

Work Out Wednesday

Get Musical

This week I thought I’d share a playlist to get you through your workout. It’s an hour of tunes to get you warmed up then pumped up, and even cooled down. I chose my music carefully because I need a great beat that makes me forget I’m sweating, but I also want to make sure it’s something my kids can overhear without having an awkward conversation. So this playlist is full of confidence boosters and upbeat melodies that might make you want to lace up those sneakers.

And since workout Wednesday isn’t complete without an actual workout, I’m introducing a move I like to call Madonna Arms. Because, I mean…come on. Have you seen her arms? This move requires music, but no equipment, so drop the dumbbells and pump the jams.

Madonna Arms

First, you’ll need a song – something that’s at least 3 minutes, but don’t get too ambitious because 3 minutes can feel like a lifetime if you do this right. My pick is number 13 on the playlist – Meghan Trainor’s “Me Too” – because it’s full of the attitude and inspiration you’ll need to keep up the workout.

While the song is playing you’ll stand with your arms stretched straight out from your sides, palms facing down. Pulse them up and down while the music plays.

Every 30 seconds you’ll switch the direction of your palms (without dropping your arms) they can face up, down, front and back.

Once you’ve done all those directions, try doing tiny circles forward, then backward for 30 seconds in every position. Whatever you do, don’t drop those arms until the last note is sung. Then you have full permission to rest those arms for the rest of the day.
