Friday Favorites before the long weekend


Happy Friday friends! This has been quite the long week and I know it’s because we’re so close to the long weekend! I’m thankful for the extra day and looking forward to a bit of relaxing!

    I’d have to say my number one favorite this week was finding out that I passed my gestational diabetes test! Definitely going to go enjoy a bowl of ice cream this weekend! 


    Every year in the Boston Common, flags are put out in memory for those Massachusetts service members who gave his or her life defending our country since the Revolutionary War. With over 37,000 flats, it’s a sight to be seen & takes your breath away!

    On sale for $24


    Along with many stores, Gap is running up to 50% off items and then an extra 20% online purchases with free shipping! I scored a couple of summer tops for under $40!  I feel like everything I’ve purchased has been floral patterned, so I’m happy these are more neutral! 



    I picked up a new lipstick over the weekend from L’Oreal and I have to say, I’m loving how moisturizing it makes my lips feel. The line is Color riche shine and I’ll admit, the clear packaging is what sold me! I’ve been wearing “shining peach” all week long and it’s the perfect pinky / nude/ peach colored lipstick! It’s not one of those lipsticks that doesn’t budge, you’ll definitely find yourself reapplying throughout the day, but the consistency is one of my favorites I’ve found in a while! 




    I hope you all have a wonderful weekend.

      Gap owns my bank account, lol! I HIGHLY suggest you shop there for baby girl. They have the cutest clothes and the quality is SO good. Plus, they’re alwaus running such great promotions. I love the tops you got, they look so cute and comfy. Oh, girl, I remember taking that test. Not the most pleasurable, haha. Glad you past it! I hope you enjoy every minute of the holiday weekend!
