New pumps! Sky high


I was in Santa Monica last night walking around the downtown promenade. It was around 11 pm and I was surprised that there were still some stores open so late on a Friday night. I walked by several window displays and the sparkly shoes on display at Steve Madden drew me in. They had some sparkled sandals on display which looked so pretty but came with a hefty price tag. I kept looking in the store and went towards the back where they had extra sale on their boots. I looked through their boots but couldn't decide which ones I could see myself in, when I spotted these heels among the boots. Black leather sky-high pumps with gold studs on the front! I fell in love. They have about a 6.5" heel with a platform, and they are comfortable to walk in! I tried them on and the sales lady told me they were the last pair and surprisingly (and my luck!) they were in my size! I decided to get them! They were originally $149.95....and then on sale for $59.99, and guess how much I got them for?! 60% off that last price! such a steal! :D I was so excited, I walked out of the store at 11:30pm with a new pair of Steve Madden Heels!
Can't wait to wear them out!

New Domain Name!!!

I am really excited and happy to announce that I just purchased my first domain name! Ever since I was in middle school, I got into web design and have dreamed about owning my own .com!!!!!!! (Check out my early work, FruitFlava, don't laugh, it was my first website and I was obsessed with photoshop!!) And now I finally did it with this blog. Hopefully my blog takes off now that I have PHDFASHIONISTA.COM!!! It should start to redirect soon, hopefully Google processes it soon! So change your bookmarks! (Phdfashionista.blogspot.com will also redirect, so no problem!!!)
SO EXCITED! Finally have my own website!

Healthy goals!

So today marks the start of week 10 of my 12 week workout challenge I set up for myself. I just completed 9 weeks of working out 5 days a week, 2 days rest! It is amazing how you can start good habits! It started out only as a 6 week thing I wanted to do for myself, but since it became a habit, I decided to continue it for another 6 weeks. What I do is I log the workouts I do every day, it just makes it easier! Just writing it out on a piece of paper really helps! And knowing that if I don't work out today I will have to write "Rest day" on it, makes me work out so I can take another day off. :) I also started "eating clean," or more simply, eating healthy. I allow one "cheat" meal a week, so I can still indulge in unhealthy stuff every once in a while! I started packing my own lunches, making chicken for extra protein and veggies!! Healthy snacks with protein and fiber that will fill you up and avoid junk food! When I go grocery shopping I try not to buy chocolate or other unhealthy stuff; if its not available to you, you won't eat it! :D I've been trying to eat healthier for the last 2 weeks and I feel so much better, and I can tell it is helping my body out. I want my abs to come in, but no amount of ab exercises will do that.... abs are made in the kitchen, i.e. eat healthy and decrease body fat percentage! Sorry to go on my healthy exercise rant, but I wanted to write a post about it. Anyway, I received my new Nike Free TR III running sneakers in the post yesterday!! They are so cute! They are good for working out and running, minimal support so you can feel your lunges and squats better! I might still need support for running because of my knee, but I have another pair of sneakers I can wear for that. And they are so cute! And really comfortable! I love them! I can't wait to work out in them!
