It’s hard to believe that two years ago, I was writing a post about what three dresses I planned to wear as I pranced around Italy and Greece on our honeymoon. That was the trip of a lifetime and seems like forever ago… but I guess time certainly has a way of flying when you’re making babies and moving in to a new house. From Oliver’s amazing health, to Jonah finishing 2nd grade with flying colors, and Peter graduation with an MBA from UCLA (and working full time!) we have so much to celebrate and in my opinion, deserve another fabulous vacation! (Cue the St. Regis, Punta Mita!) Sadly, however, when it comes to packing, some of those amazing dresses and bikinis that I was rocking two years ago, do not quite fit mi grande culo. (You can read all about the baby weightloss struggle here).  Eventually I’ll fit back into the Vince maxi, seen here (this has been repinned almost 6k times! Kinda cool), but for now, I’ve managed to do a bit of a closet edit and am focusing on a few looks that work for my body right now. (Hello, cold shoulder. Thank you so much for the person that came up with this trend).

So Mexico… With two little ones in tow, I wanted to be practical and not only find things I could move around in comfortably, but also that wouldn’t break the bank (because like I said, I plan to fit into my size 2’s once again).

Denim & Lace

Now, I know I just said that I didn’t want to break the bank, but I had to make an exception– for starters, I fell in love with this NSF Lace Shell and it’s something I know I will wear through the fall. But also, people, denim cutoffs that fit properly are hard to come by. You’d think because they’re less material, they wouldn’t necessarily cost as much as their cousin: The Real Jean. But alas, these little effers are costly– and the more perfect they’re ripped and deconstructed, the more expensive. But I love these Rag & Bone ones (similar here— note I searched high and low for the ones I’m wearing. They’re pretty much sold out everywhere)– they’re baggy and comfy and will look great with a great white tee or a feminine lace top like this. It’s just a staple! I’ve paired them with these easy slides from Old Navy and glasses from H&M. (It’s all about the high and low, right?)

IMG_6006 Crochet Cold Shoulder Dress

Here’s the thing: I would love a dress like this or this, but the reality is that this is a trend that will only last so long… so spending over $200 just doesn’t seem right. That’s where stores like Target make my life easier. This Mossimo dress is exactly what I need for the boho chic, cold shoulder vibe. The crochet is very simple and non-offensive and the color doesn’t wash me out. What I’m trying to say is, I love it, do you?

Screen Shot 2016-06-06 at 4.15.09 PM Paired the dress with these shoes from Steve Madden. I found them to be more comfortable with the tassels in the back.

Screen Shot 2016-06-06 at 3.54.09 PM I finally have a reason to carry this darling clutch from Kayu that a friend gave me over the holidays too!

Oh, and just in case there’s a little accident with mommy’s Ray Bans (i.e., the margarita(s) prevent me from having the energy to take my sunglasses away from the baby who thinks they’re a toy), I bought these adorable sunnies from Urban Outfitters. Because they were $16 and I thought they were cute. And also because I cannot justify buying the Celine ones I really want.

LRD: Little Red Dress

When I was pregnant, a friend told me about ASOS.com. How I never knew about this site is beyond me, but now I do and now it’s not good. But like in a healthy way, not good. I’m sort of obsessed with this off the shoulder cotton dress and wish they made it in more colors. They probably do, but that would require me to buy more, uh, stop writing and start shopping (again). Perfect for day or not, pool or casual restaurant, I can guarantee this will be my go-to vacation dress.

Screen Shot 2016-06-06 at 4.39.25 PM I found the striped tote in the $1 bin at Target a few months ago (I think it was actually $5 at the most!), so if it gets trashed at the pool, I’m not going to be terribly disappointed.

Screen Shot 2016-06-06 at 4.38.18 PM To streamline travel that automatically gets chaotic when you have a baby, I don’t think I will be bringing a diaper bag, so this tote should be perfect for a carryall.

Screen Shot 2016-06-06 at 4.44.25 PM But let’s cut to the chase, what really makes this outfit the piéce de résistance? My Oliver Blue! The best look ever.

    We find girls are very limited in regard to which steroids they can use
    (if they wish to continue looking like women). This is because most steroids are not delicate and exhibit
    sturdy androgenic results (8). This doesn’t just apply to feminine bodybuilders both, with analysis showing that
    1.4% of ladies in highschool are also taking anabolic steroids for beauty
    functions (1). Some feminine athletes and bodybuilders have reported improved energy and performance whereas utilizing Masteron. Anabolic steroids and androgenic steroids (AAS) can have long‐term
    effects on the feminine voice. These modifications are clinically relevant since they're tough to treat and subsequently
    must be disclosed to sufferers using AAS or receiving androgenic steroid remedy.


    In this text, we'll explore the top and the most secure steroids for ladies that contribute to vital muscle features and enhanced fats burning.
    Are you a girl aiming to build lean muscle or obtain a
    shredded look? Thinking about using steroids, however concerned about their security and effectiveness?
    Deca durabolin can also be some of the in style steroids for ladies due to it not being overly androgenic, thus preserving the danger
    of virilization low in women. Additionally girls don’t have to overdose to
    have the ability to expertise muscle positive aspects,
    as much less is extra when females take winstrol.

    In exercising athletes experiencing irregular menstruation and HPO axis operate abnormalities, a hypothalamic-pituitary
    thyroid axis impairment appears to occur. In truth, regardless of thyroid
    stimulating hormone ranges didn't differ, free-triiodothyronine and free-thyroxin have been decrease in amenorrheic athletes in comparison with cycling exercising and
    sedentary girls [13]. Low total T3 levels positively
    correlate with the decrease resting energy expenditure/fat free mass ratio in exercising groups with irregular menstruation in comparability with sedentary
    biking ladies [15]. At the light of such findings, the lower
    of T3 ranges would possibly represent a compensatory mechanism in case of negative power
    steadiness, to reduce calories consumption.
    A typical dosage of Oral Primobolan for ladies will be roughly
    milligrams, per day. Strength and physical efficiency may also be notably
    improved; with out having to –theoretically- worry about experiencing serious unwanted aspect effects.
    Primobolan gives women the distinctive capability to add the
    perfect quantity of muscle to their body – whereas turning into leaner and
    preserving their femininity. Primobolan is an extremely engaging steroid for women because it might be used for both bulking and slicing functions.

    Some girls might not get to expertise any Primobolan unwanted facet effects, while others might
    probably suffer from all of them. Although the risk of suffering from virilization is
    taken into account to be low – there’s no way of knowing if this actually holds true for all women. While men won’t significantly discover the totally different Primobolan benefits to be that thrilling – girls
    could have a completely totally different opinion, regarding
    its overall effectiveness.
    Some ladies might discover it to be well-tolerated with minimal unwanted side effects, while others may expertise significant antagonistic
    effects even at low doses. Some girls have reported experiencing
    improved muscle definition and a harder, more sculpted look when utilizing Masteron. This may be due to
    its potential impact on reducing water retention and promoting a
    leaner physique. SheCares.com is dedicated to providing dependable, up-to-date information and advice on the most typical topics
    in girls's health, together with PMS, menopause, natural hormones,
    hormonal conditions, and fertility. In women, the hormone
    testosterone has been linked with contributing to capabilities like
    energy, mental sharpness, and libido.
    Decrease levels of estrogen might scale back a person’s
    intercourse drive and trigger bone density loss, which might lead
    to osteoporosis. These hormonal modifications may improve the danger of heart
    disease and stroke. An Anavar cycle can produce spectacular outcomes for each women and men,
    especially when mixed with correct diet and coaching.
    It is a popular steroid due to its gentle side effects and comparatively low danger
    of causing hurt to the physique. Research has shown that Anavar can even cause testicular atrophy
    and endogenous testosterone suppression (Crowne et
    al., 1997). If customers fail to implement an efficacious post-cycle remedy promptly after cycle cessation, they may experience
    long-term injury to the HPTA.
    However, we see novices generally gaining pounds of muscle mass and 7 kilos of fats loss from a 4- to 6-week cycle.
    Primobolan is a somewhat distinctive steroid that’s notably favored by the feminine bodybuilding community.
    In this text, I will focus on what a Primobolan cycle for girls is and why feminine bodybuilders use this anabolic substance.

    The stigma that surrounds individuals who inject drugs (PWIDs) [54, 55] and women who inject medicine (WWIDs) [38]
    has been demonstrated in intravenous (IV) drug use settings.
    WWID may be much more stigmatised as they're each breaking the law by means
    of their unlawful injecting drug use, in addition to transgressing
    the norms of conventional femininity [39]. On a bodily degree, participants additionally expressed their observations
    of girls who had crossed this line and the obvious modifications that occurred in consequence.
    Specifically, members who had transitioned to injecting reported
    how alarming physical unwanted effects were (e.g.
    day by day shaving, voice deepening), which builds on previous work
    with women [11, 33, 48]. Some girls competing in elite
    power sport expressed that the lack of financial reward, for example, meant
    that the benefits of using injectables didn't outweigh the possible downsides.
    Further research is required to grasp the exact motivations of these
    women who do go on to inject AAS, which is ready to likely present some insight into the stigma surrounding this unique group of PWIDs.

    After a 12 week cycle, you'll expertise some fairly dramatic enhancements
    in your muscle size. You can anticipate to put on 1-2 pounds of lean muscle mass per month on common. In order to prevent this from becoming everlasting, you have to
    limit the size of your cycles to no more than eight weeks, adopted by an analogous time period when you are off the steroid.

    Due to Anavar’s gentle androgenic rating, it doesn't
    sometimes produce virilization side effects in girls
    when taken in low to moderate doses. Anavar and all anabolic
    steroids are essentially forms of exogenous testosterone; thus, Anavar will improve muscle mass.
    Due to the substitution of a carbon atom with
    an oxygen atom in the A ring in the C2 place, this molecular structure makes Anavar proof against inactivation by way of the enzyme 3α-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase.

    It is clinically distinguishable from regular enlargement of the clitoris
    seen throughout sexual arousal.
    Nevertheless, not like other oral steroids, Anavar is not considerably hepatotoxic.
    This is because the kidneys, and not the liver, are primarily liable for metabolizing Anavar.
    However, we discover this to be a smaller percentage compared to different C17-aa steroids.
    Based on our tests, Anavar is certainly one of the greatest steroids in regard to toxic unwanted effects.
    Analysis has additionally shown it to own security in long-term medical settings (9).
