Boots McBlog bio picture

bonjour, y'all!

I'm a dash of Jackie O.  A pinch of Elly May.  A splash of Quelques Fleurs.  A jigger of pickle juice. My friends call me Boots. My name is JoBeth.  I'm just a southern girl who adores a great tune, a delicious meal, beautiful flowers, a frilly dress, and the perfect shoe. I'm married to a curly haired boy I call "The Angler".   I am a registered dietitian who loves burgers and chocolate chip cookies.   I survived being President of the Junior League.  I'm a daydreamer, an avid i-pod shuffler and a novice photographer.  I love to laugh.  I'm often silly with a heapin' helpin' of sappy. I'm blessed beyond measure and amazed by God's grace.  I still don't know what I want to be when I grow up, but I try to keep my high heels walking in faith one step at a time.  It's been an incredible adventure so far. 

Like all true southerners, I come from a long line of storytellers. My favorite stories paint pictures.  And great pictures tell stories. I hope to accomplish both on this blog.  So,  grab yourself a glass of sweet tea, kick off your Manolo's and sit a spell on my virtual veranda. Flair and folly awaits.  

Do tell!




boots’ camp: the little black dress

Dependable. Versatile.  Classic.  Elegant.   She never seems to disappoint.  If you are like me,  there is an entire section of your closet dedicated to this wardrobe staple – the Little Black Dress or “LBD” as she is often known.

from my collection - my favorite LBD is this one by Gemma Kahng

The LBD is a great camoflauge for those times when we don’t feel quite as, well,  little.   And when we are at our peak fitness…VA VA VA VOOM!   Watch out,  there is nothing sexier than a pair of great gams extending from that dark hemline.

Like the number of LBD’s hanging in my closet, I’ve begun quite a collection of work-out apps on my iPhone to help me make the most of my couture.   The latest is  SHAPE Magazines Little Black Dress App.

Little Black Dress provides  12 total body strength training and cardio workouts specifically designed to sculpt, shrink, and strengthen a women’s figure in all the right spots — ideal for slipping into whichever little black dress style you desire.  Shoulders, arms, legs, abs,  you name it – there is a workout to help work those areas you most want to highlight.    There is also “5 minute pre-party Prep” workout which I adore.  Nothing feels better than walking into a party feeling strong.     The app also lets you listen to your own workout tunes while following visual step by step directions on each exercise.

Check it out today.   Just like a little black dress,  a strong body never goes out of style.

Cheers!
