Skirts are Oh-so-Feminine and versatile

I bought some skirts for my daughter but she didn't like the styles that I picked  so I thought of trying them on and have fun with it.  I grew up like a tomboy so I was always wearing shorts.  I only started wearing skirts when I started working because it was required for uniform.

I like the floral print design of this one but it's too short and I should have gotten the next size so it's not too tight.  It's a fun skirt to wear at home though.

The asymmetrical print of this skirt is what drawn me to it.

I like the red one on top but I also like this  black one.  I don't have many white top but I like this one.

This one looks like an office lady outfit.

These red and yellow skirts are thin so it's perfect to wear during summer time.  They're a little bigger for my size but that's the problem I have in sizes.  Size small is a bit tight but medium size is big so I'm kind of torn between those two sizes.

This one has a suede-kind-of material and I like the style.  The length is pretty decent as well.

I think my favorite is this corduroy navy blue one.  It has two pockets in the front and a zipper at the back.

Lace skirts might not be your thing but I think they're cool.

Simple outfit that can be worn to church.

I like this  ensemble as well.  The scalloped design on the waist of the skirt is kind of unique.  Size medium was a tad bit big on me but when you tuck your top, it works.

Some of these are a little short for my liking but I think skirts are a versatile piece of outfit you can have in your closet.

Causes Of Frequent Muscle Tears When Exercising (And How To Prevent It)

 Do you find yourself frequently injuring your muscles and tearing them when exercising? If so, you're not alone. Many people experience muscle tears on a regular basis. In most cases, this is due to an underlying cause that needs to be dealt with. In this blog post, we will discuss what causes frequent muscle tears and how you can prevent them from happening in the future!

Poor Form

One of the most common causes of muscle tears is poor form. If you are not using proper form when lifting weights or doing other exercises, you are putting yourself at risk for an injury. Make sure to always use good form and technique when exercising. This will help you avoid injuries and maximize your results. If you are new to weightlifting, start with a low weight and focus on getting the technique right. You can find some basic tips on form here, but it may be worth speaking to a personal trainer to ensure that you are doing exercises safely.

Not Taking Enough Rest Days

Another common cause of muscle tears is not taking enough rest days. It is important to give your muscles time to recover after a workout. If you are working out too frequently, you will not give your muscles the time they need to heal and this can lead to injuries. Make sure to take at least one or two rest days per week, depending on how often you are working out. You also need to listen to your body and if you feel a lot of aches and pains in your muscles, take another rest day. Pushing through when your body is telling you to rest is a sure-fire way to sustain an injury. If you want to do a more active rest day, yoga is a brilliant way to keep your muscles in good health.

Poor Diet

Another factor that can contribute to muscle tears is a poor diet. If you are not eating enough protein, you will not be giving your muscles the nutrients they need to repair and grow. This can make them more susceptible to injury. Make sure to eat a balanced diet that includes plenty of protein, healthy fats, and complex carbohydrates. You should also consider using muscle recovery supplements after particularly intense workouts. Even if you have enough rest, your muscles can still tear easily if you don't give your body the fuel it needs to repair them properly.

Failing To Warm Up Properly

One final cause of muscle tears is failing to warm up properly. It is important to warm up your muscles before exercise in order to increase blood flow and flexibility. This can help prevent injuries. A simple warm-up routine could involve some light cardio followed by dynamic stretching. You should also make sure to cool down after your workout with some static stretches. This will help your muscles to recover and prevent them from becoming too tight.

If you find that you are frequently injuring your muscles, it is important to identify the underlying cause. In most cases, it is due to one of the factors listed above. Once you have identified the cause, you can take steps to prevent injuries in the future.

Yoga Buddy

As I get older, my body gets stiff and achy at times.  Practicing yoga and pilates once in a while helps my flexibility.  My dog Blake is always ready to be my buddy whatever I do, be it doing yoga or aerobics.  Our late dog, Bolt was the same way, he was always there with me when I workout especially when I go on a long walks.  It was his favorite thing.  I am still training Blake to be on leash, he still hasn't gotten the hang of it but I hope he will love walking like Bolt did.

I wish my kids would do yoga with me but they are not very flexible to do yoga.  I love it though that they are working out as well.

Life is Short, have FUN with it

These photos have been sitting in my draft for quite a while now but I haven't have the chance to do it so I'll try it today.  It's good to use though when I am bored and feel like dressing up at home.

This dress is perfect for Summer weather.

Love the back of this dress.

The front is also decent and I love that it is knee length, not too short and not too long either.

Okay, this one is a little ... I dunno.  I like the skirt but the top is too short.

When I was young, my favorite color is earth-toned.  This dress reminds me of my youth.

 Floral dresses are just overall cute.  I love gardening so  I love different kinds of plants and flowers.

Just some of the summer outfits that I bought but decided not to wear it outside since it's bare in the back.

I like this summer dress, it's light and  comfortable.

I like the print of this but it's a little too small and short.

Oh, I forgot I have this, I might take it out the closet and wear it to church  one day.

Shorts and long sleeves, why not?  IT's just inside the house anyway.

I used to have trimmed thighs when I was younger but it gotten so big after pregnancies lol

Not a fan of this dress but hey, just for the sake of it, I tried it.  I don't like puff sleeve so this one went to the donation pile.

I just realized, my hair looks terrible on these photos ha ha.I don't even know what I did with this dress, it is so weirdly designed.

This one I like although the material is a little too thin.

I also love this one but I gave this to my daughter.  She has the black and I have a red one of the same design.

I use this dress to sleep.  It's very thin.

I need to lose my gut if I want to wear this outside but I like the design.

I guess I can wear a blazer to  hide my gut lol

I like this one but there's an elastic thing that they used  on the sleeve and it makes my skin itchy.

I like this red dress, it hugs the curves of my body.  Is it wrong to think I have curves?  Lol, I guess in my mind I do.

This summer dress has a beautiful print, I like wearing it in the summer time.

A friend of mine gave this dress to my daughter but she's not into floral prints so I tried it on and it fit!

I love this navy dress.  I wear it   most of the times in church on winter.

This is more of my Mom's style so I threw in the donation pile.

Another dress that I donated  coz I didn't like the shoulder.

Gray, another color that I love when I was young.

What's even the purpose of this post?  You asked.  Well, I just want to have fun.  Life is short so mind as well, have a little fun.  Do what makes you happy.
