Happy Monday!

Frito Pies.  We are using leftover chili from this weekend.  Served with shredded cheese, sour cream, jalepenos and diced green onions.


Bacon-wrapped Pork Medallions, Baked Potatoes and a salad.

Accidental Chicken with rice and zucchini.  This is SO yummy.  I always pound my chicken breasts flat.  It makes them super tender and they cook quicker.

The New "No nonsense" Makes Being Fashionable Easy and Affordable

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of No nonsense for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine.

When I was asked to post about No nonsense tights and leggings, I thought "this is a no-brainer."  Why?  Because I am already familiar with the brand and actually wear No nonsense leggings.  I love the leggings because they are affordable, easy to wear and you don't have to go to a clothing store or department store to find them.  I did some research and they are available at my local Kroger and can be found at drug stores.  Of course, they are also available at K-Mart and Wal-Mart.  So, you can pick them up while you are running your every day errands.

I am a mom, a wife and I work full-time.  I love to wear my black leggings with a tunic or sweater and a pair of boots.

"No nonsense" Leggings

And do you want to know the best thing about wearing the leggings around town or to work?  When I get home, I throw on a t-shirt or my night gown and lounge in them.  (oh, and don't tell anyone, but I sometimes sleep in them.  yeah, they are that comfortable.)

 

Now, on to the tights.  You have to check out the beautiful colors.  I love that you can extend your summer wardrobe into fall and even winter by layering.  Pick out your favorite sundress, add some bright leggings and a sweater, then pick out your footwear and you are all set.  Below, I've shown three different examples of how to wear the same dress with different tights and sweaters.  The best thing?  The tights are under $7.  Yes, you read that right.

Now that you have seen how I would style the leggings, check out the video below.  It features style expert Jill Martin, No nonsense brand ambassador.  Jill is an Emmy Award-winning TV personality and co-authored the style guide "I Have Nothing to Wear!"  She also reports on the New York style scene for Access Hollywood.

As you can see, No nonsense leggings and tights are an affordable way to stay stylish and stretch your wardrobe.
