Hey guys.  Time for another monthly slice into my life and all the little things I am loving this month.  Be sure to check out past posts to catch up on other awesome finds I wrote about.

Picking Up the Pace –
I am slowly seeing improvements in my half marathon time and was able to run my most recent half almost 10 seconds per mile faster than I did the month before.  Baby steps. 
I finished with a 2:10:11 official time, cannot wait to chop a dozen seconds off that to go below 2:10. 

Spiralizing-
My best buddy bought me the Paderno Three Blade Spiralizer as a gift and I LOVE it.  I am a huge fruit fiend, but struggle to fit veggies into my diet – zoodles have been a savor. 

A Warm Cup of Tea at Night –
This Tangerine Orange Zinger is delicious with the perfect pop of flavor, but no caffeine – that way I can drink it while I am relaxing before bed and it won’t keep me up. 

Built in Bling –
For years I hid behind big t-shirts in plain colors.
The older I get, and the more I grow confident and comfortable with my body (probably thanks in a large part to running) the more fun I have with fashion.
In the last two years or so I have begun to have more fun with style, and started to purchased more fitted pieces, and fun stuff with colors and patterns.
Recently, I’ve even tossed in some sparkle – today I’m wearing my first shirt with built in BLING and I’m loving this updated, jeweled twist on a Fair Isle Sweater.
Never would’ve worn this a few years ago and I’m glad I’m becoming more confident and am having more fun with fashion.

Long Statement Necklaces –
I cannot get enough necklaces recently and am loving the super long ones I can just slip over my head.  This is my latest find and I am obsessed with the black and white color combo because it goes with so much.  (All my jewelry comes from Metal Marvels.)

Netflixing –
Have I mentioned recently how Netflix streaming is the best invention ever?
It all started when I got hooked on Orange is the New Black and then I discovered The Walking Dead.  Since then I haven’t been able to stop.  I just finished House of Cards, amazing, and someone suggested Sherlock which is really cool.  I love that they show his thought process and how he deduces everything.  I need more hours in the day… you know so I can lay on the couch or in bed with Netflix… the important things in life. 

What are you Loving Lately?
Are you a Netflix streaming addict too?  If so what shows?
