Pescatarian (noun): A person who does not eat meat but eats fish
I've been a pescatarian for about 4 years now but, I am probably the most unhealthiest one you will ever encounter.
Once you tell people you don't eat meat they automatically assume that your are this health conscious person, who is overly passionate about animals, and someone who pushes other people to accept their "better" lifestyle.
But, the truth is, that is not the case for many of us pescatarians, vegetarians, and even some vegans.
I started out this lifestyle not doing any research on the "how-to's" of surviving and eating a healthy and well balanced meal without consuming meat. I kind of just impulsively decided that I was going to stop eating meat. So, the first couple of weeks of this new venture all I was surviving off of was McDonald's french fries and fish sandwich, and the Morning Star black bean burgers. I eventually received a couple of vegetarian cookbooks as gifts and started doing a little bit more experimenting, but, I was still stuck eating junk food. People asked me if I felt a difference in my body, if I felt more energized, did I lose weight, is my skin better, did my hair grow. But, none of this happened for me. Sure, I stopped eating meat, but there are still plenty of junk and processed foods that don't have meat in it.
It's been 4 years now and nothing has really changed, my diet still consists of processed, unnatural foods. Instead of simply not eating meat, I need to be incorporating more plant based foods in my diet if I want to see all those results people claim to have when they stop eating meat.
And, thats exactly what I'm going to do.
These pictures were also taken by my friend Peja who is a really great photographer.

When I first got this duster coat in the mail I was so excited to wear it that I kinda threw it on with any ol' outfit. I'm not saying my outfit in these pictures are bad but, I know that I can do better.
Duster coats are really trendy for this fall and winter and we probably will be seeing more of them next winter. Yes, they may not keep you warm in below freezing weather but, at least you're cute because this duster is definitely a statement piece.
I chose this duster in a powdery pink color that has been trending for a couple seasons now and, is proving to be an all season color. Anything and everything satin is another trend that has been popping up all over social media.
How do you feel about these trends? Is it all hype or will you actually spend your dollars on some of them?
