Favorite Things

We're talking today about wrestling.  


No, wrestling isn't necessarily one of my favorite things! It is however, important to my husband.  See, my husband's dad and uncle wrestled in the Olympics 40 years ago; the Hubs wrestled all throughout high school and college; and his cousin is wrestling Friday in the Olympics!

Team Haze Shirt:
Jean Shorts: American Eagle

So, since the Hubs is one of my favorite things and wrestling is one of his favorite things, I'm adopting it this week. ;)


So, check out this shirt! It was originally a regular t-shirt, but I couldn't imagine wearing anything with sleeves right now since it's so bloody hot out.  So, I took a pair of scissors to it and made it more my style. =)


I paired it with my plaid Ralph Lauren tennies from TJMaxx and my bright blue sports bra to infuse even more "Tiffany" into this t-shirt. I felt pretty cool in this and it was the perfect outfit for cleaning, organizing and decorating my classroom!


If you've been watching the Olympics, tune in Friday morning at 7:00 am central time to cheer for Sam! You can watch him online at www.nbcolympics.com.

A Maxi Dress, A Necklace, Wrestling & A Giveaway

What do those four things have in common?  Typically, nothing. Today, they have me: the glue that binds them together into one cohesive blog post! ;)

When I was in Destin a few weeks ago, I had a chance to visit the Loft Outlet and seriously could have spent my entire paycheck in there! Instead, I narrowed my purchases down to two dresses.  This little dress that I wore last week and this lovely maxi dress. They were only $19.99 each! They actually had dozens of different dresses at that price. I can't wait to go back when Whitney comes in town. =)

Dress: Loft Outlet
Tank & Sandals: Target

Do you remember when I won this gorgeous necklace from Castellammare Designs? Well, I was thrilled when the owner reached out to me later and offered to give away a piece to one of my readers!

Necklace: Castellammare Designs (purchase here)
Rings & Earrings: Premier Designs Jewelry
Bracelets: Target

Castellammare Designs jewelry is sweet and feminine, while being lively and playful at the same time. Kind of like me! ;)


Do you see that big ole ring on my forefinger?  That beauty is my husband's college National Championship wrestling ring!


Wrestling is in our blood!  My husband's dad and uncle (who are twins!) wrestled in the Olympics in both 1968 and 1972! My husband, his brother and all of his cousins wrestled in high school and college. And you want to know the kicker? My husband's cousin, Sam, is wrestling for Team USA this year in London!! We're all so excited and can't wait for the opening ceremonies Friday night! Go Sam!!

Anyways, back to the matter at hand... this sweet necklace!


I love how she's designed it with the ribbon, in my personal power color. =)
