Nourishing Habits: The Morning Supplements I Swear by

 

Morning supplements can be a beneficial addition to your daily routine. Supplements can aid in addressing nutritional gaps, supporting immune function, enhancing cognitive performance, and promoting overall well-being. I’m on a mission to stick to my routine every single day this year, even when I’m on the road or going through tough times. I’ve made my supplements non-negotiable because I’ve noticed that skipping them throws me off. Consistency is the key to really feeling the benefits of these supplements. It’s all about staying committed to that daily routine – that’s where the magic happens.

 

✨Supplements I’ve Added To My Mornings✨

These are all the supplements I take on a daily. Always consult with a healthcare professional before incorporating new supplements to ensure they align with your specific needs and health status.

 


 

 

 

Akasha Superfoods: Sea Moss Gummies

These gummies have a blend of powerful ingredients such as Irish Sea Moss, Pearl Powder, Vitamin C, Vitamin E, and Aloe Vera. They mainly help to hydrate, protect, tighten, and soothe the skin, while also reducing inflammation and promoting collagen production.

 

 

 

 

 

Flo PMS Gummy Vitamins

Periods suck, the symptoms suck more! These gummies help me alleviate the worst parts of that time of the month like period breakouts, mood-swings, bloating and cramps.

 

 

 

 

 

Liposomal Vitamin B12 + B6

It’s like a magic blend of the most bioactive forms of Vitamin B12, including Methylcobalamin, Adenosylcobalamin, and Hydroxocobalamin Chloride. Vitamin B12 does wonders for red blood cell production, mood, and memory. But what sets this apart is Cymbiotika’s liposomal technology – for better absorption and bioavailability.

 

 

 

 

I will do just about anything to not get sick. This supplement is crucial for my immune health. The Omega mix is full of amazing ingredients like Icelandic Astaxanthin, an organic compound synthesized naturally by fungi, bacteria, and yeasts as a secondary metabolite. Evidence exists to support its benefits for cardiovascular, skin, eye, hepatic, and immune support.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Liposomal Vitamin D3 + K2 + CoQ10

It’s like a powerhouse of goodness that taps into over 3,000 genes linked to longevity. This vitamin D boost isn’t just about immune support; it’s great for heart health and bone strength.

Vitamin D3 is making sure I am receiving enough calcium and phosphorus. Not only does it keep my bones happy, but it’s also throwing in perks like brain health, mental clarity, and even supporting normal blood clotting. Oh, and did I mention the energy boost? Yep, it’s all in there. Cymbiotika’s got me covered for the long haul.

 

 

 


 

 

Healthy Glow is my go-to for encouraging cellular repair, keeping the skin hydrated, and boosting that oh-so-important collagen production. Say goodbye to fine lines and wrinkles, and hello to a complexion that screams youth and radiance.

You can find ingredients like Spermidine and Hyaluronic Acid. Spermidine is like a little health superhero, mimicking fasting to kickstart autophagy, waving goodbye to inflammation and oxidative stress – the villains of aging. And Hyaluronic Acid? It’s all about that soft, healthy skin, smoothing out those pesky lines and wrinkles. Trust me, Healthy Glow™ is the key to aging like the queen you are.”

 

 

Vitamin B3, also known as niacin, is one of the 13 essential vitamins required by the human body for optimal health. But what makes NMN so special? Well, it’s been recognized for its potential to slow down the aging process and amp up mitochondrial function. This isn’t just about looking young; it’s about keeping our cells at their absolute best.

Remember, the key to a flourishing life often begins with the small, mindful choices we make each morning. Cheers to embracing wellness, one supplement at a time.

HOW TO: Style Metallic Pants

I’m still living in the Renaissance (Beyoncé’s renaissance, of course) in these silver metallic pants. Bold pants like these can be scary to style when you don’t know how to.

Tips to Remember:

  1. Start with the statement piece, like metallic bottoms.
  2. Choose your base color: Cream, White, Grey, Blue, etc.
  3. Accessorize with that color. To make your legs look longer, add shoes similar to the color of your statement piece.

Still feeling stuck? No need to worry because I have compiled three looks that will allow YOU to shine in these pants. If you like these looks, you can shop them on my LTK by clicking here!”

COZY CHROME

For our first look, I opted for cream as my base color. This top from Anthropologie was an ideal choice, with its silver and gold embellishments that complemented the metallic silver bottoms and my gold jewelry. Never shy away from mixing metals; it’s a playful approach that can add dimension to your look! To maintain the cozy vibes, I paired this look with my Sherpa bag, whose softness could easily double as a travel pillow (I’m not kidding, it’s so nice). Lastly, I chose chrome shoes to match the pants and create the look of longer legs.

 

 

CLUB RENAISSANCE

Off to a concert? This laid-back ensemble is sure to turn heads. I kicked off the look with these eye-catching metallic pants, then threw on a relaxed white crop top from H&M and coordinated it with white booties. My Jacquemus bag, adds that extra touch of flair that makes this casual outfit feel effortlessly chic.

 

 

FAIRY CHROME PRINCESS

This look is so pretty and magical. Instead of sticking to neutral basics, I decided to infuse some color! Choosing blue as my base, I picked this charmingly embellished sheer blue top from Anthropologie. I incorporated the elements from the previous look, including the metallic bottoms, white crop top, and the Jacquemus bag; adding these playful holographic blue heels. This look is screaming girls’ night out!

 

 

METALLIC MONOCHROME

I couldn’t resist including a monochrome look! Sticking to a palette of silver and grey, I maintained the bag from the previous look and paired it with a grey sweater from Anthropologie (the original sold out, click here for a similar look). The addition of beaded heels completes the look. Embracing the monochromatic trend makes styling effortlessly cohesive. Where do you envision wearing this stylish look?

Fall Pink Power Suit

 

Want to jump on trend train that is here to stay?!  Get yourself an all pink power suit!

I’m a believer in the dramatics of a strong monochromatic outfit especially in my signature color.

And I’m not the only either!  I’ve been seeing pink power suits all over — from the streets of NYFW to some of my favorite celebs like Rihanna, Emily Ratajkowski, Tika Sumpter and Beyoncé gets an honorable mention in all the pink numbers she wore in Sardinia.

If you’re afraid to tackle on the rosey hue from head-to-toe try wearing the blazer alone with a pair of black wide cropped jeans or trousers with a moto jacket.  But for those that are ready for a full punchy look I’ve rounded a few pink suits that will be great to keep in rotation in your Fall wardrobe.

Chic Soul Summer Dress

If you’ve been following me on Instagram you probably know that I’ve recently tried Chic Soul for the first time.

Chic Soul is a plus size online boutique focused on stylish pieces for everyday fashion.

I’m totally obsessed.

The styles are fun and things that I would often see in straight size e-commerce boutique but never made in my size.  They carry everything from cute dresses like the one in today’s post, to perfectly distressed denim, tunics and shoes.

So I definitely think they are worth trying out and can be an option for everyday casually chic looks.  You can also save 10% with the code THAMARR10 at checkout.

Modern Day Vintage Inspired Look

Timeless black and white gets a little modern update in this warm weather glam look.

Over the years I have expressed my love and adoration for plus size brands that just get it.  They create styles and designs that are classic, trendy and modern for the plus size woman.  I can’t fan girl enough over my love for Eloquii.

Ever since they stepped on the scene as an independent brand they have been killing the plus size fashion game dropping a new collection for what seems like on a weekly basis.

My head is left spinning from all the gorgeous lush fashion in the best possible way.

So let’s get into this look, shall we?

For one, it has to be one of my favorites so far this year.  It’s feminine, classic and subtly sexy.

Two, I’m wearing black and white which I never do but I was immediately attracted to this darling tie shoulder body suit and the elevated Black and white is

Every Body is Beautiful with Woman Within

With summer fast approaching many men and women are focused on shedding a few pounds to get ready for summer.

A message that I will continue to stress and promote on my platforms is that you are ready now for well, anything you want including slaying summertime! That’s why I’m a huge supporter of brands that share that sentiment and actually live and breathe it.

Woman Within has been a household name in the plus size world for over 100 years providing fashion in sizes 12-44!  That’s insane, right?!

Last week they launched their Every Body is Beautiful campaign where they teamed up with with an eclectic group of customers and body posi babes to celebrate the revolutionary thought that regardless of shape, size, age or race — that you are totally deserving of all the good things in life including comfortable and stylish fashion.

In today’s post I’m sharing my favorite style from Woman Within that’s perfect for the warmer weather: a crinkle maxi dress. It’s light weight but still packs a style punch. I kept it casual with flat sandals and matching tote.  Such an easy breezy simple summer outfit that will look great literally on ever body!

Draper James Linen Front Button Dress Styled 2 Ways

A linen dress is a must have for Spring and Summer and this one from Draper James is a new classic.

Have you tried Draper James yet?

Draper James is Reese Witherspoon’s lifestyle brand and although I knew about the brand I never wore anything from the line.  I first was introduced to them as a consumer when they decide to do a collection with Eloquii last year — lots of cute stuff but it was a limited temporary collection.

I think the success of the Eloquii collaboration encouraged them to make the leap to extend the sizes to many of their classic pieces to a size 24.  So although I can’t shop everything I want from Draper James, I am hopeful that they are open to idea that plus size women love darling dresses too!

If you want to try Draper James, right now is a great time because you can save 25% off your entire order during their “Friends & Family Sale Event”!

Extended the Draper Size range in their classic pieces is a step, albeit a small one in the right right direction in catering for more women of different shapes and sizes that happen to love the classics.  I hope to see more lines do this because let’s face it — it’s 2019 and I’m tired of asking for the same thing that I feel I’ve been asking for my entire life.

Why can’t you make this in my size?!

Anywho, back to this darling linen dress.  I wanted to show how this dress could be styled up or down with just switch of footwear. It’s light and airy enough for a weekend look but can be just as polished and sophisticated with heels or flats.

FAQs + 36 Hours in Seattle with Gibson and Nordstrom

If you follow me on Instagram you may have noticed a couple weeks ago I took a trip to the PNW to meet with the Gibson and Nordstrom teams ahead of the International Women’s Day Collection Launch.

It was really important for the Suzie Turner, the founder of Gibson, to have all 9 influencers meet one another and have us do a photoshoot wearing our namesake pieces for Nordstrom’s site.

I’m still geeking over the fact that this happened and that my face will be on Nordstrom’s website!

Bonkers.

Unfortunately, not all of us could make it to Seattle but a majority of us did and I have to say it really did make this collaboration more meaningful and genuine.  Getting to know the other influencers was an awesome way to learn why Gibson wanted such a diverse group of women to come together.

I have to admit I was sooooo nervous about the entire weekend.

REASONS I WAS SOOOOO NERVOUS

  1.  I was flying literally across the country.  I’m not a good flyer.
  2. I was meeting 6 other amazing boss babes that are powerhouses in their own right. I always get nervous meeting other influencers but I would soon learn I had no reason to be.
  3. I was meeting not only Suzie but her team and the entire Nordstrom Women’s Purchasing Team.  Talk about overwhelming. 
  4. Having to do a photoshoot without the comforts of home like my go to photographer.

I’m not one to let nerves stop me from having an experience of a lifetime.  So I put on a brave face and fake it till I make it.

Watch my Gibson Takeover on their IG Story Highlights.  You can watch some of my time in Seattle there.

I also filmed a vlog of my time too and you can watch it on launch day – One more sleep away!

Cropped Wide Leg Jean by EV1 by Ellen DeGeneres

I’ve finally found a cropped wide leg jean that looks great on my body and you’ll never guess where I got them from?

Okay well, maybe you could guess if you read the title of this blog post.  

My new denim is from the new Spring EV1 Collection by Ellen DeGeneres only at Walmart!

I was so new to this, believe me.

I had no idea Ellen had a clothing line at Walmart and it’s really cute!   I was so pleasantly surprised to find classic pieces like chambray button downs, distress skinnies and graphic tees up to a size 20 or 3X and the price point is beyond reasonable.

Great stretch and a stylish wash, these jeans are a steal at only $20!  You can’t beat that!  Cropped wide leg jeans are so in style right now and I’ve seen them priced at $200.

My top and bag are also for Walmart!  I love that I could style a look in a one stop shop and not compromise on personal style or quality.

Fashion and trends should be accessible to everyone and every body!  I like what you did there Ellen… EV1!  You can shop the newest arrivals of the collection now and have them shipped to your local Walmart too!

River Island Casual Cold Weather Look

Okay ladies!  I’ve heard you!  You’ve asked to see more casual looks on the blog so I’m just here to please.  I present to you, le casual glam via River Island Plus!  😂

I will always and forever be a maxamist because more is more.

This look from River Island features two staples that all of need in our wardrobes in the winter.  Great fitting denim and knit sweater.

Since discovering River Island denim *I honestly was sleeping on them in that department.  I have loved wearing them in my day to day life.

You don’t see many of those looks on the blog because I thought they were too ordinary and not very visually interesting.

Boy, was I wrong.

A lot of you have sent me messages saying that you love my style but would love to see more of me in what I wear out and about everyday.

Shooting this look reminded me of when I first started blogging and captured my looks in real time: that is asking my brother to snap a photo of my outfit on my way out the door.  Nothing planned or prepared.  Not an extravagant look to wear for a few hours.  Just a cute outfit for the curvy girl next door.

In fact this was what I was actually wearing while hanging out at my friends place before dinner.

Gibson x Hi Sugarplum Resort Collection

 

If you’ve been personally victimized by winter please raise your hand. 🙋🏾‍♀️🙋🏿‍♀️🙋🏽‍♀️🙋🏼‍♀️🙋🏻‍♀️

I don’t know about you but I’m so over wearing layers of clothing and I’m ready to bare some skin in cute tops, skirts and dresses.  How about you?!

The new pieces from the Gibson x Hi Sugarplum Resort Collection are just what the doctor order if you’re in need of Vitamin Sea and Sun.

The entire line is perfect if you’re planning an island getaway or if you’re like me and just need a new ‘fit for a weekend of play in the Sunshine State.

I wore my new Gibson x Hi Sugarplum Resort Collection Santa Fe Rickrack Off the Shoulder Top over the weekend and it was the perfect piece to check out the new mobile sangria truck in town.

If I can’t be Tulum I can fake it, right?!

Even thought I was stateside it was a bubbly fiesta and I happened to be dressed appropriately for the fun and festive drinks.

The collection has a pretty inclusive size range from XS to 3X.  I’m wearing a 2X in my top but would opt for a larger size if I were to pair it with jeans.

Are you going to be shopping this Gibson x Hi Sugarplum Resort Collection? Where are you planning on wearing your pieces to!?

Season of Us with Loft

There is no shortage of reasons to celebrate am I right?!

Whether big or small there’s always a good reason to look around and be thankful and maybe pop a little bubbly.

For one thing I’m thankful for you, yes you, the one reading this because we have had a great year together.

How you might ask?

Well, together we have continued to build a community, a resource and social space where we both can share our stories, create connections and find inspiration and encouragement.

I love receiving messages from you of how excited you are to discover new places to shop or different ways to style your beautiful bodies.

This year LOFT has been one of those reasons to celebrate.  Since extending their sizes to include Plus it’s been amazing to see all of you shop and style their looks.

I love sharing outfit inspiration and gift ideas and later seeing how you all interpret that fashion for yourselves.

My latest loves from LOFT are all their blush pink knits like this darling ruffle cuff sweater; it’s equal parts cute and practical.

A great staple that will keep you warm but add flare are these navy blue tights that perfectly pair with the cutest tweed skirt.

Get one for yourself and be that thoughtful friend that gets one for a friend– be stylish warm together this season.  It’s the season of us after all.
