friday favorites

Favorite Song: Mike Posner’s Drug Dealer Girl. I just love how chill and fun this song is.

Favorite Coffee Creamer: After my beloved Christmas creamers went away, I started buying Coffee Mate’s Natural Bliss all natural Sweet Cream. No artificial crap, you can pronounce each of the few ingredients in it and I have yet to tire of it like I do the flavored ones. For the win!

Favorite Recipe: This Apple Pear Salad with Pomegranate Vinaigrette looks really good and I want to try it! via

Favorite Moment: My 10 year old nephew texted me last night from his iPod while he was at the beach. We probably had a 30 minute conversation back and forth and it was the sweetest thing. It is crazy how fast they grow up!!!

Favorite Lust: This Factory Sheer Striped dress and Linen Tee from J Crew would be super cute for this spring. I need to make it over to the outlets!

I hope that everyone has a fabulous Easter weekend!!! We plan on spending Sunday with Chris’s family and I hope to torture my dogs at some point this weekend by making them wear the bunny ears. They love the attention! I shall leave you with some funnies.

Favorite Funnies:

And in the spirit of Easter

Favorite Song: This week’s song is Tom Petty’s Free Fallin’. Talk about a throw back! My sister’s birthday is today and this was one of her favorite songs when we were young. Like really young.

Favorite Snack: I discovered the Chobani flips and my life was forever changed. Or something like that. But seriously, these things are delicious!!! I love the Key Lime Pie and the Nutty Banana

Favorite Delivery: There was a Kate Spade Surprise Sale last week and I stumbled upon a metallic rose gold tote. Chris got me an amazing rose gold watch for our anniversary a few years ago, and I have loved anything rose gold since! I saw that the tote was on super deal and I happened to just send Chris the link like holy crap check out this deal. He responded back with ordered the rose gold. So sweet of him!!

Favorite New Beauty Find: Last week I needed to stop at CVS for something…maybe dish soap? I can’t remember. Anyways, I stumbled upon the Milani lip products that Kristen and Mia have talked about and they were buy one get one half off! I picked up the gloss in Pink Lady and the lipstick in Pink Frost. Love them both!!! I am wearing the gloss more just because I am more of a gloss girl but trying to lean more on lipstick than before, which was never.

Favorite Birthday Girl: My little sister turns 27 today!!! Let that sink in…my little sister is turning 27. Yikes! She likes to rub my age in my face sometimes, but I like to remind her she keeps inching closer to 30 herself! Happy Birthday, Tracy! You are the most amazing person I know. You are so strong, well grounded, an amazing mom, and I couldn’t ask for anyone better to call my sister. I love you!

Favorite Funnies:

I have seen a few friends cars get booted in Atlanta when I lived there. This is pretty epic!

Friday dance party!!!

Time for Friday Favorites!!!

Favorite Song: Once again, I shazammed a song from The Originals. It seems like every week I find a new song between that show or Vampire Diaries! This song is on point for something more chill. You Should Know Where I’m Coming From by Banks.

Favorite Packages:I won two giveaways in the same week!!! I am not quite sure how I got so lucky, but I was ecstatic to receive these in the mail this last week!

I won Pearlties from lovely The Sequin Notebook ladies! These are absolutely beautiful hair ties that I was so excited to receive. I love that they have a little pearl on each piece, and I couldn’t believe how many colors they sent me! Not only are the ties cute, but the packaging is amazing. The company also donates a percentage of its sales to charity…which is pretty cool in my book.

I also won the Flex Watch from Kristin at Hopelessly Ever After! I picked the pink venice watch and it reminds me of a watermelon and I freaking love the pop of color! This company also serves a great message. I love seeing so many companies giving back!!!

Favorite Recipe: A fellow Magic City Blogger, Julie at Life in the Little Yellow House, shared a recipe this week for an Iced Earl Grey Latte and it looks amazing!!! I really want to swap out my coffee run on a Friday for this because it looks delicious! You can see the picture and recipe here.

Favorite Reading: I have been enjoying flipping through the beauty issue of Galmour this month! The little things!

Favorite Funnies:

What I really want to say to most plans…

When someone asks who took the last cookie…

Trying to get off the couch after a TV binge…

How you really look strutting your stuff…

I hope everyone has a fabulous weekend!!!
