Friday Favorites

My sentiments towards today being Friday are perfectly summed up by the above quote!! I hope you’ve had a really great week and have something fun planned for the weekend!! I’m looking forward to sushi, relaxing and maybe a little shopping…but before that I’m linking up with my favorite ladies Amanda,ChristinaandLizto share some favorites from the week! 

Favorite Workout – Tone It Up

I haven’t done an at home workout in a while, but Wednesday morning I tried a new to me TIU arms and abs routine and loved it! Side not – Karena also shared her home tour and it’s really cute!! 

Favorite Salads

I have been trying to amp up my salad game the last few weeks and this Avocado Caprese Salad& Potato with Green Beans and Asparagus has me excited for lunch!! 

Favorite Look

Hot mama alert!!! Olivia Wilde gave birth in April and was stunning on the red carpet this week!! Is there a tutorial out there where I can get my hair to do that curl thing!?

Favorite Pins

I’m not the biggest fan of hot chocolate – but spiced white hot chocolate I could get behind!! 

Because at the end of the week…none of it matters! 

Favorite Links

+ The best organization for getting those holiday cards out

+If you’ve never been to a Jewish wedding – these gifs are priceless

+Thanksgiving tips and a timeline

+ Even though I don’t work from home – a lot of these tips can be taken into the office

Hope you all have a wonderful weekend and see you back here Monday for some weekending fun!!
