Good morning fashionistas and happy Monday! Today on the blog we wanted to reconcile looking good and feeling good. Even the most amazing outfit and accessories can fall short if you aren’t feeling your best. Just like every other woman out there, we've got a MAJOR sweet tooth – but it is so hard to feel good about eating things that (face it or not) are NOT good for us. Co-founder Lisa gets here sweet and chocolaty fix with these amazing Avocado Banana Chocolate Cookies, recipe courtesy of PaleoLeap.

Trust us when we say that these fantastic cookies are simply delicious and great for you. They are also nut-free for those with nut allergies. Let us know how you like them and stay tuned for more Fashion Forward Food blog posts. Now, roll up your sleeves and let's get baking!
