Go Faux

Hello, Everyone!!!.
On Monday it was a very brisk day in New York City, I woke up to temperatures in the lower 40's. I decided to layer up my faux fur vest instead of wearing a huge coat, I refuse to accept the fact that it is Fall now. I added warmth to my outfit by wearing a matching thin sweater underneath my silk blouse from Forever 21. When I first brought these cargo pants from H&M more than two years ago they fit very tight but after my weight loss I was able to send them to a seamstress to fit my current size.

After you lose weight you do not have to get rid of your clothes that no longer fit, a simple trip to the tailor will do the trick.

Currently Coveting

I started my weight loss journey about two and a half years ago & I'm happy to say I've maintain my goal weight. I did not become a gym buff overnight but I started to watch my portion size and count my calories, eventually the pounds started to melt away. My motivation to lose weight begin when I wasn't able to fit into a pair of jeans that I used to be able to fit.   Initially my weight loss goal was just to fit into my current wardrobe  I did not worry about dropping to a certain dress size. I went down from a size 12/14 to a size 8/10 some people may think its not a drastic weight loss but any amount of weight loss is a victory. I'm so proud of myself. The downside of losing weight is losing your favorite items in your wardrobe that you can no longer fit because they are too big. However the upside of losing weight is being able to buy new clothes to fit your new body better. I'm so proud of myself!!

Here are a few items  I need to replace in my closet at the moment and trendy items I want to add to my fall wardrobe ...
