Everyone knows that the best part of Thanksgiving is going back home, and getting up with all of your old friends.  Being among friends is definitely a treat in itself.  Friendsgiving is the best part of Thanksgiving. This holiday season, I'm excited to say that I'm hosting my very first Friendsgiving gathering!! Making time to be with close friends to tell them how grateful you are to have them in your life will strengthen any friendship.  What's Friendsgiving you ask?????  It's a gathering celebrating friends as family. It's a feast before the feast.  A group of my very close friends will gather with laughs, great food, and WINE!!!  There's nothing like gathering with your favorite people eating your favorite holiday dishes. A dinner gathering that excludes family drama, and shows off everyone's potluck skills. The dress code is whatever you want it to be. Wanting to have your own Friendsgiving celebration? Here are some thin...

November is finally here and Thanksgiving is less than a month away!!!! This month is dedicated to so much joy, while recognizing and appreciating the people and things we are most thankful for in life. Everyday we are faced with so many struggles. It’s so easy to focus on just the negatives. During the month of November, I always challenge myself to only look at the positives in life that I face daily. Each day I find something uplifting and happy to celebrate. Doing so, I am less stressed. Just by focusing on the positives, you come to the realization of how truly blessed and happy you really are. I invite you all to join me in my November challenge. Everyday from now until November 31, we are going to post a picture daily (on our Instagram page) what we are most thankful for. When you give your thanks use #GiveThanksLife&Glamour

One of my many obsessions......... SHOES!!! For all that truly know me, know my love for a Jessica Simpson pump. They just won’t quit!! Her pumps always make me feel super sexy and classy. No matter what the occasion is, Simpson pumps can easily be dressed up or worn casual with jeans. They can be worn at the office, as well as a night out on the town. There are so many trends each season from sling backs, peep toe, pumps, and sandals. I have several pairs. The Quality of them are amazing!! Majority of my outfits are inspired by her shoes. I always find my shoes first, then purchase the look. To me, they are very affordable. Some may find it to be expensive, but my advice to you is to shop around a little. My saying is, always buy for quality. Something that will last a while, splurge on. My favorite stores to find Jessica’s shoes on sale is Dillard’s, Macy’s, Belk, and DSW. They are definitely worth every penny. Majority of the shoes I have by her are heels, and I must say they ...

    Fall is finally here!!! During this time of year is when a lot of us get discouraged and lazy on our fitness goals. It's officially the time when once we get home, we aren't going back out! It's getting cold outside, yes! But don't let the weather and temperature dampen your motivation. Sometimes during these cold months, you tend to see the best results. A summer body is built during the winter. There are some that think a gym is needed to continue their goals. There are so many at home fitness workouts that can be done from the comfort of your home. For all of those that are new to fitness, and not really knowledgeable of what can be done from home, venture out to Pinterest. There's so many at home workouts posted that will definite help. Below are a few of my favorite Pinterest workouts that I have worked into my trainings.                    

  Absolutely love this time of year!!! Fall Fashion is my favorite attire.   Outfit of the Day:   Vest: Ralph Lauren V-neck long sleeve: Old Navy Jeans: Old Navy Booties: Tommy Hilfiger
