Friday Favorites Round-Up


Happy Friday everyone!! I hope this week was quick and easy for everyone and you have some fun plans this weekend! I’m linking up with Amanda and Liz to get these favorites started! 





Favorite Workout


(HIIT)

(Total Body)


It’s been a while since I’ve found a YouTube Workout that I actually look forward to doing, but leave it to the Tone It Up girls to share two great workouts in the last two weeks! Both are hard in their own ways and the HIIT workout really gets you sweaty – which I love! 





Favorite Recipe


I’ve made a wrap for lunch every day this week and I have to say I’m loving it! I’m hoping to try this onefor lunch sometime this weekend – it just looks so clean and easy to make! Light and fresh too! 





Favorite Show


I just discovered this show on Tuesday and have caught up with all the episodes already – they are only 23 minutes each on demand so it was no problem to binge lol! Don’t judge that the show is on TV Land, because well it’s awesome! It’s such a fun concept for a show and literally had me laughing out loud. Here’s 5 reasons you should be watching it! 



Favorite Purchase

After writing this post for Shift Your Style this week, I realized that I needed those shoes!! They were on crazy sale from Sole Society so I had to pick them up, especially since would you believe I didn’t have any black strappy heels! 

Favorite Links

//This interview with Blake Lively makes me want to be her best friend even more

// I’ve been a Jillian Harris fan ever since she was the bachelorette years ago, she’s also got a blog of her own and is on Love It or List It 2…check out some of these great living rooms that are sure to give you some inspiration!! 

// Such a cool DIY for a wedding or birthday party

// I’m not sure if you watch The Voice, but my favorite performance probably ever happened on Monday night with Koryn Hawthorne – she killed it!! Goosebumps all the way! Oh and she’s 17!! 

I hope you all have a wonderful weekend!! 

xo,

    I've been upping my HIIT workout game and let me tell you – it is a butt kicker! And the results start to show quickly too. I haven't had abs like this since I was 25! Keep up with it and you won't be disappointed!

    Congrats on the new shoes!! I watched Blake Lively on Live with Kelly & Michael and she is so nice and beautiful. She also has a great sense of style. She was wearing this amazing printed jumpsuit, I was like flawless!!! Anyways.. I hope that you have a wonderful weekend lady!! 🙂

    I need to start making lettuce wraps/sandwiches because I don't love them with bread. I'm the person who will give up on the bread halfway through a sandwich or whatever & just eat the inside. I think I could handle lettuce.

    I'm going to have to check out those workouts! Love your new shoes from Sole Society, and I need to check out Jillians blog – I need all the living room inspiration that I can get. Have a great weekend!

    Ooooh, those strappy heels! That's a purchase you're going to love foreverrrrr! Is it sad to say that seeing new workouts totally makes me feel a little depressed?! I'm not sure why the butt and thighs have to expand with pregnancy as well… UGH! Ha ha! One day I'll get back in killer shape (I hope!)
    Happy weekend, girl!

    I always have a hard time getting the lettuce to pull easily off the head so that I can wrap it beautifully!

    Going to try jump squats and see what that does before trying the next HIIT but I like this one so I will come back to it if the injury allows me to successfully do the jump squats.

    That wrap looks so good!!!! I discovered that when eating at Jimmy Johns, I am ok to get the lettuce wrap over the bread so making my own at home would be super fun! I am so going to have to check out that TV show! It sounds good!!! Plus all the shows are wrapping up their seasons and I am going to need a good binge.
