Friday Favorites Round Up


Well hello there friends!! Between gearing up for our Bridal Pop Up this weekend (Sunday) & a few weeknight outs – it’s been quite the week and I’m so excited for the weekend. Here’s to hoping it’s a success and we can make this an annual event!! Here are a few favorites from the week & linking up with Amanda


Signs by Posh & Prep– one of our amazing vendors this weekend! 


Shake Shack’s 100th Restaurant Opening || 



On Monday night Gary and I went to the grand opening of the newest Shake Shack in Boston in the Seaport! Before heading to the opening, we stopped by the Envoy Hotel to take in some views…and drink some wine!! It’s usually jam packed, but I guess the trick is going on a Monday! 


If you haven’t had a shake shack burger yet…you’re absolutely missing out – they are so good!! Also really good…their cheese fries – now I think it’s okay I forgot to eat lunch that day! 


Favorite Dinner ||


So that truffled mac & cheese might not look pretty, but I assure you it was decadent and delicious!! Wednesday night my friend Heather and I decided to have an impromptu dinner and met up at Smith & Wollensky! Their outdoor patio was perfect at night & we didn’t even realize that it was restaurant week – that was a nice surprise! 


Professional Photos ||


We got the professional photos back Keen Photography and I can’t even tell you how happy I am with how the photos turned out from Carolin! She did such a great job dealing with the craziness of the hour and taking all the photos we wanted – and then some! 


Favorite Celebrity Look || 


I love this effortlessly put together look from Sarah Hyland  – from the bronzed makeup to the colorful heels – I love it all!! It would be so easy to recreate too! 


Favorite Links ||



|| We’re going to Nashville in a couple of months and this guide could not have been more perfectly timed!



|| This makes me want to get my mom and dad on snapchat 



|| I think I can master the “S” wave



|| This is slightly terrifying news about water bottles



|| As soon as we move – I’m making this salad




That’s a wrap on the week friends!! Hope you all have an amazing weekend and I’ll see you back here Monday for some weekending action!

    The Shake Shack opening looked like so much fun on Snap! We have one pretty close to us, but I have never been! I hear that I'm missing out. Isn't that truffle mac and cheese from Smith & Wollensky to die for?! I'm craving it now after seeing your picture haha! Good luck this weekend with the pop up, Biana!

    I've never had Shake Shack before, can you believe it? I've seen them throughout NYC, but have never tried. Now that you've mentioned it, I think the next time I'm around I'll have to try them out. How are they in comparison to Five Guys? I LOVE the professional photos, they came out beautifully! Your grandmother looks so happy, I'm sure she had a wonderful time celebrating her 90th (God bless!!!). I have to say, girl, you have some great genes b/c she doesn't look 90 at all! I hope you have a wonderful weekend, beauty, and thanks so much for sharing!

    OMG I just read that about the water bottles and gross!! Im totally guilting of using one and go 3-4 days between washes. It's either that or be wasteful with plastic bottles… you just can't win! Have fun at your pop-up this weekend πŸ™‚

    Yay! Have so much fun at your pop up! I will be following along on social! I am so excited for you! Shake Shack is the jam. I actually like the Chicken Shack the best! It is so juicy and delicious. You should give that a shot next time you visit. Truffle Mac & Cheese is always a good idea! Your food pics are making me so hungry right now! Your professional pics with your Grandma came out so beautiful! Definitely some framers there! Have a great weekend!

The ex and i went to Nashville about two years ago and had a blast, and did a lot of things in that great guide, it will not steer y'all wrong!
