Friday Freebie: Mock Up Photo

There are some gorgeous mock up photos on Etsy and Creative Market that I have been stalking looking at recently.  But unable to part with $15 for a photo, I created these images to use instead.  Enjoy and check back soon...I had so much fun doing these images that I intend to have some new different images to add soon!

A Few Quotes We Love on Perseverance

• Keep on going, and the chances are you will stumble on something, perhaps when you are least expecting it.  I have never heard of anyone stumbling on something sitting down. -Charles F. Kettering
• If one advances confidently in the direction of his dreams, and endeavors to live the life which he has imagined, he will meet with a success unexpected in common hours. -Henry David Thoreau
• I hated every minute of the training, but I said, "Don't quit. Suffer now and live the rest of your life as a champion." -Muhammad Ali
• There is no passion to be found playing small - in settling for a life that is less than the one you are capable of living. -Nelson Mandela
• Be daring, be different, be anything that will assert integrity of purpose and imaginative vision against the play-it-savers, the creatures of the commonplace, the slaves of the ordinary. -Sir Cecil Beaton
• We gain strength, and courage, and confidence by each experience in which we really stop to look fear in the face...we must do that which we think we cannot. -Eleanor Roosevelt

• Change the wallpaper on your phone's lock screen to a motivational photo or quote that relates to a goal you are working on right now. Pinterest is a great source of photos and quotations for every area of your life. Be aware, however, that the photo of the tight, toned yoga-ite might motivate you for a week to get to the gym after work, but after a month you'll cruise right past your phone's lock screen as you Yelp the closest donut shop. The moral? Change the image often to keep yourself motivated!
• Listen to a spiritual or self-help audiobook or podcast in the car instead of the radio. Looking for a free book? Check out our previous post on how to get free audiobooks from the Hoopla app: Free Hoopla iPhone & Android App
• Keep a dry erase marker in the bathroom to write gratitude lists or inspirational quotes on the bathroom mirror. Write your significant other a sweet note on their bathroom mirror as well. 
• Change the message on your phone's alarm to something personally inspirational. The text that pops up on my iPhone each morning is "This Day is a Blessing".  Other ideas: "You are Beautiful" or "Coffee Awaits".

$12 Matte Black Faux Leather Leggings on Amazon - Ummm, Awesome

After pinning too many amazing outfits with black leather leggings to my Pinterest fashion board, I decided I needed (or really wanted) a pair of my own.  Insomnia accompanied by internet surfing struck, which resulted in me ordering this pair of matte faux leather leggings from Amazon for $12.  I figured 190 women with an average review of over four stars was a good sign...and let me tell you those women are correct that these leggings are awesome.

These faux leather leggings are like wearing yoga pants, although very stylish yoga pants.  If you've been pinning your own leather leggings look on Pinterest, you might want to give these a try.

Here is our Amazon Affiliates link to the shiny black leggings, although I prefer the matte black leggings personally: Leggings on Amazon

D&D Rave: Physicians Formula Happy Booster

I get compliments all the time on my skin… one sweet twenty-something asked me just the other week what kind of foundation I used because my skin just seemed to "glow." Another co-worker wanted to know what kind of moisturizer I used because my skin looked so "healthy."

Believe me, my skin is not that healthy… I just use an impressive product called Physicians Formula Happy Booster. It is a bronzer that costs about $9-12 at any local drug store and really does give you skin a nice healthy-looking glow. You can wear it alone or over foundation. While this product is technically a "bronzer," I use it year-round. Hope you enjoy!
