Like the rest of the world, my daily scenery consists of the rooms in my house and a dog walk/toddler nature excursion. Despite the change in schedule, I wanted to give you an update on my life lately.
Binge-Worthy Shows
I finished The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel and adored it. If you love fashion, comedy and New York City (three of my loves) you’ll adore this show. I love how meticulously put together Mrs. Maisel is while also serving up some loose-cannon zingers. Her father, played by Tony Shalhoub, has me rolling on the floor laughing. My husband said it’s been so nice to see me laugh while watching this how. If you need some refreshing escapism, this show is for you.
I also tried Heidi Klum and Tim Gunn’s new show, Making the Cut, and sadly had to scrap it after 3 episodes. It’s Project Runway 2.0 without the grit. The producers obviously identified a favorite in the first episode, and I don’t think I need to continue watching to know who will have the next global fashion empire.
Next on my list is Cheer and Schitt’s Creek. What are you watching?
Workouts
I’ve been consistent with BBG (the Bikini Body Guide). I do four resistance workouts per week – legs, arms, full body and abs. They are 7-minute circuits that get repeated 4 times for a total of 28 minutes of exercise. You need minimal equipment – I use 3 lb weights and resistance bands – and it’s done through the Sweat app.
The cost is either $20 per month or $120 for a yearly membership. Clearly, I went with the yearly membership and think it’s SO worth it.
My husband and I also decided to invest in a Peloton because we don’t think we’ll be able to return to the gym anytime soon. It arrives on April 25, so once I’ve had a chance to test it out, I’ll write a review.
The Peloton app (which has yoga, meditation, dance classes, etc.) is free for 90 days. You don’t need the bike to do these other workouts, so jump on the freebie while it lasts! You must sign up by April 30 for the 90-day free trial.
Fashion
I’ve honestly only put on jeans once since self-quarantine began. These jeans are my hero pair. I wrote about them here. They run TTS (size down if you are in between sizes) and come in several different washes.
I recently upped my loungewear game because my collection only consisted of two pairs of joggers. Clearly with life as it is, I need more!
I’m going to update this loungewear review once all my new picks arrive. Stay tuned!
New Obsessions
Okay, I don’t know that I’d go so far as to say I’m obsessed, but I am really enjoying Tik Tok. I started creating videos. Check them out here.
No, I will not be doing sexy dance videos. I do have some ideas for a twist on my Fashion Friday series, so stay tuned!
Life Lately
This was the last photoshoot we did before self-quarantine began. We shot right outside Copa Vida coffee shop, which is adjacent to Petco Park. I remember feeling so excited for opening day at the Padres (I love a sunny day of baseball, beer and good friends). It still blows my mind how much has changed.
Interestingly, I ran into two friends while doing this shoot. It was so nice to randomly run into people and chat for a few minutes. I long for the days when that reality starts again.
Yes, this is a hard time, but I know we’ll get through it. Let’s continue to support each other, open the lines of communication and be thankful for the many blessings we have. Sending you all well wishes for health, happiness and comfort!
