Guest Post: Hair
Note from Shelbee: I have been wanting to write a post about our relationship with our hair for some time now but have never quite gotten around to it. Then Susan sent me this article about her own relationship with hair. For me, it has taken a lifetime to appreciate and even love my own hair. I find that many women always desire that which they do not have and do not appreciate what they do have. Curly heads want straight hair. Straight heads want curly. Those with thick hair wish it were thinner. And those with thin hair would kill for thicker. Tow heads dye their locks while brunettes…

Guest Post: There’s a Nun in My Head & #SpreadTheKindness Link Up #95
Note from Shelbee: This is the third guest post by my friend and avid blog reader, Susan Marinelli. Susan has taken a more introspective approach in this piece, but her wit and humor are still evident as she works her way through processing experiences from her formative years, explaining how they continue to impact her as an adult. I am pretty sure we can all relate to something similar. And once again, I am ever so grateful to Susan for assisting me by providing thought-provoking content for my blog. As if life were not crazy enough for me, certain events have occurred in the past two days that require my immediate…

Guest Post: What to Wear to a Nude Beach & #SpreadTheKindness Link Up #93
Note from Shelbee: This post was written and contributed by my friend and avid blog reader, Susan Marinelli. Susan has very graciously offered to write some posts for me while I am still trying to figure out how to manage 3 part time jobs, 2 kids and a husband, and 1 blog. Plus, she has been considering starting her own blog (which I absolutely think she should) and wanted a little experience at writing in blog post form. I find Susan’s writing style an absolute joy to read and her sense of humor far surpasses any other human being I have ever met. She is hilariously witty and as left…

Guest Post: How To Find the Perfect Wedding Dress for Your Body Type
How To Find the Perfect Wedding Dress for Your Body Type Guest post by Georgia Selih On a day as important as your wedding day, you want to look your absolute best. Not only because you will be in just about a million pictures, but also because you want to focus on the day, your feelings and your partner, as opposed to whether or not your dress is slipping down, rising up or does not fit properly. But unfortunately, the way we’d all love to shop – see something on the model and simply pick it up – doesn’t work in reality. We all have different figures, shapes and sizes…

Guest Post: Your Skincare Goals for 2018
*Note from Shelbee: Very recently, I have been noticing some major changes in my skin which apparently is a common occurrence for a woman of my age. I have never implemented much of a skin care routine other than washing my face with soap and water when I take a shower. As a result, I am not very well versed in the topic of skin care regiments. Today, I am sharing a post written by Georgia Seliah outlining some wonderful skincare goals for the new year. I hope you enjoy her tips. Your Skincare Goals for 2018 Guest post by Georgia Selih The year 2018 is finally here, and it’s…

Guest Post: The Self-Care Care Package – 10 Ideas for a Military Spouse’s Day Off
*Note from Shelbee: When Heather reached out to me about guest posting on my blog, I was more than happy to oblige. Military life is a topic that I have been wanting to include in my content more often and I just never seem to get around to it. However, I don’t want you to be mistaken, I live, eat, and breathe a military lifestyle in every way. My husband’s schedule and his military obligations literally effect my every decision. Not just the big decisions, but all the little daily things, too. I try to keep things as “normal” as possible for the sake of everyone’s sanity, so I tend…

Guest Post: Pajamas and Track Pants for Daytime Wear
Guest post by Katherine Johnson When we talk about street style, we have to start with pajamas and track pants because these two items never go out of fashion for our street style heroes. Just like jeans, these two wardrobe items are no more seasonal. As we are seeing that there’s no difference between night and day wardrobes, these two items have long been on trend. They’re cozy, sleek and easy to style up or down, you could wear any of them, anytime, depending on how you style these items. Every woman wants to go out in her most comfortable clothes and comfort is still seen as in fashion nowadays.…
