Rainy Daze

This past Saturday, the Washington Redskins (NFL) Cheerleaders held tryouts at FedEx Field. I had the honor of being a judge. A lot of people don't know, but I cheered for one measly year of my life. People look at my physique and assume I'm athletic and must have played a sport, but nope, the most I did was cheer (aside from karate for a few years when I was little). I think this one year is the reason I have such respect for cheerleaders and the sport. Now NFL cheering seems more like some type of dance to me and does not seem as intense or physical as say, high school or college cheering. However, I took my job as a judge quite seriously. 

The outfit I chose to wear to the judging was a last minute decision. I opted for a cute, fun and flirty look and was on my way out of the door for a mini photo shoot before heading to the Stadium. The rain had something else in mind... SO it turned into a few quick pics at home, lol.

Great Falls

              A co-worker of mine had told me how amazing Great Falls National Park was for it hiking trails. Little did I know how amazing the scenery was as well. Living in Washington, DC means I don't get to see miles and miles of nature, so it being in Virginia was a super plus!

Now you see it! 50 Shades of Blue.

How many times have I said to you that I love to mix prints and patterns? Now, how many times have I truuuuly showed you that I do so? Yeah, I can't answer that either. What I can tell you is that I saw this outfit, well minus a shirt change at the last minute, in my head once I wore these pants for the first time about a week ago. At the time I was at work. I was surprised at all the compliments I got on them so I figured I'd spice them up that same weekend. Yes, I re-wear clothing quite close together.
