Friday Favorites Round Up


Hi friends!! Another full week in the books and I’m excited to greet this Friday! My friend is coming up from Florida for a visit and that means another girls weekend for me!! Let’s get right to the favorites shall we – linking up with Amanda and April

Favorite Purchase//






Remember back when I said I was having a moment with hot pink items – well I finally found the perfect hot pink wallet! I love that there are so many compartments and that I have change in the same wallet without having to have a coin purse. I love the color because I’m not digging through my black hole of bag to find my wallet and even though I don’t usually have my phone in my wallet it is large enough that my iPhone 6 and a lip gloss would comfortably fit! 






Favorite Workout



It had been a few weeks since I visited the TIU channel and I loved their “movie night” workout. It’s perfect when you’re watching your favorite Bravo shows….or my new favorite ABC Family reality show – Next Step Realty – so bad it’s good!  





Favorite Recipe//





How delicious does this tex-mex quichelook! I’d more than likely make it the night before to just heat up for lunch and dinner the next day! Time saver and tasty – sign me up! 





Favorite New Find//



We stopped by the Lush store in Charleston over the weekend and I was surprised to learn that they have a whole slew of makeup products – news to me! I asked for a sample of their concealer (light yellow color) and then the sales person also suggested I try the “feeling younger” tint that acts as a highlighter. 


I have been mixing both together for a really great look! I love the price tags of both as well since they are under $20 and the products aren’t harmful to my skin!

    SO jealous of your new Kate Spade wallet, I love it so much! I am loving plaid for the fall and still looking for a few shirts that fit right. They seem so boxy on me for some reason ugh

    Oh my, I am loving your new hot pink wallet!! It's perfect!! Love the dolka dot inside. So fab! I am going to have to go the lash store and try out those products. You find the best concealers. I had no idea they had them. I love anything plaid! So excited for fall so that I can finally break out my plaids. Have a fab girls weekend.

    Another girls weekend?! So much fun. I'm envious for sure! And I love the Kate Spade. I have a Coach wallet/bag I've used since I was in grad school for "nights out" and my 6 Plus wont fit in there, so I'm on the lookout for cute small wallet/bag. You know, for all those wild nights out I have πŸ˜‰

    Two girls weekends in a row?! Heck yaas! (: Love that wallet! Hot pink is hard not to be obsessed with. A long time ago I was obsessed with those Lush skin supplements and honestly I think the only reason I stopped using them was because I moved 2 hours away from one. (; If they still have their line of eye liner, you should check them out. They are amazing quality and the bottles are adorable! Have a great weekend!

    Adore that Kate Spade wallet! Eric got me a hot pink MK wallet for Christmas so I haven't been able to justify getting a pink Kate Spade yet… but I'm thinking a KS pink purse will be my next purchase… after I'm done carrying around a diaper bag for the baby, ha ha!
    I can't WAIT to try that workout after I'm no longer pregnant! I'm starting to get antsy to be able to do this stuff again, ha!
    It sounds like you're gonna have another fun weekend! Enjoy!!

    The wallet is so cute. I like being able to stick my phone in my wallet when I don't feel like wearing a purse. TexMex Quiche looks delicious!

    Love the polka dot lining of that wallet!!!!
    I'm a HUGE Lush fan… but I have to say the one thing of theirs that I wasn't impressed with was the concealer. I used to work there so I tried several different combos… I could never get it to work right with my skin. πŸ™
