Friday Roundup


Hello Friday! Last week seemed to go by at a snails pace – this week was the opposite! The 4 weeks of planning events is almost over! I think we all blinked and September decided to fly by, so we’re on to October and the true start of Fall! Here are a few things that made this week fun! 


Wedding Weekend ||


I missed recapping the wedding this past weekend, but we had a great time celebrating with some of G’s friends from high school! We all had a great time and the venue was perfectly intimate for a personal and romantic wedding! Kudos to the bride and groom for keeping their ceremony short and sweet – clocked in at 10 minutes! 



Bridget Jones Baby ||


We have had a pair of movie tickets for almost a year now and we were finally able to use them over the weekend! That particular theater is only in the western part of the state, so I was able to convince G to see Bridget Jones with me! I have to say, this one totally made up for the 2nd movie being such a dud!! This is basically my favorite role of Renee Zelleweger’s and I think it was on part with her debut of Bridget Jones! There were a few one-liners that we both kept repeating over the next few days – it was super cute! 


Liptensity by MAC||




I rewarded myself after a successful client event by picking up a new lipstick! This is the new collection from MAC called Liptensity and since I just finished this color over the weekend (how often can you say you actually get through a tube of lipstick?!) I wanted to try this new formula out in the medium rare color. I’m a fan! The pigmentation is amazing and the way it glides on and doesn’t feel sticky or dry gives you the perfect finish! 



Bang Bang Shrimp Tacos ||


Finally back in the cooking groove and these bang bang shrimp tacos are next on my list! Anyone that knows me, knows just how much I love bang bang shrimp from Bone Fish – being able to make it at home is like having a little slice of one of my favorite restaurants at home! 


The Ocean ||


I feel like I hear so many more new songs now that I listen to iTunes Radio – this one by Mike Perry feat Shy Martin reminds me of carefree summers in high school and college! Which to me was some of the best times ever!! 




Hope your weekends are great friends! I’m crossing my fingers for a mild weather weekend since a bit of the wedding we’re coordinating is taking place outdoors tomorrow! See you back here Monday for some weekending fun!!

    That wedding looks adorable! And you gotta love a short and sweet ceremony! I really didn't want to see Bridget Jones Baby, but after I keep hearing more and more good reviews on it, it's on my list now.

    I am so happy to hear that movie was good! My mom and I have seen all of them in the theaters, and I agree, the 2nd one was a dud! Can't wait to see it now 🙂 Have a great weekend!

    Love your red dress and silver pumps for the wedding! I'm glad to hear you liked the movie — I was a little skeptical too. We never go to the movie theater, but maybe I will be able to convince my husband to watch it with me when it comes to Redbox haha! Have a great weekend, Biana!

    Seriously, you and G are such a gorgeous couple! I love that red dress on you and how you've paired it with those super cute silver pumps, I've been searching for a pair after I had to retire mine. Haha, I can NEVER get Eddie to watch a chick flick without falling asleep AND snoring throughout, so rude! What was your trick? Haha. I had no clue about MAC's newest release, I love the colors and finish shown in this shot, I think I'll have to check them out. I'm so limited with using MAC because I'm allergic to nearly all of their face products, so I'll have to treat myself to a lipstick. Girl, you've just given me an idea for dinner next week, shrimp tacos, yum! Thanks so much for sharing, beauty, and I hope you have an amazing weekend!

    OOh I so want to see Bridget Jones Baby! My friend's cousin is getting married tomorrow at the Chatham Bars Inn and it is scheduled to be outside. I will say some prayers from your couple as well that there is no rain tomorrow. Although, they say rain on your weeding day is good luck!

    WOW that was a weekend for the books Biana. The bride's midi dress is gorgeous. You and your man look so sharp too. Great red sheath. I need to go watch that new Bridget Jones movie badly and OMG bang bang shrimp from Bone Fish – I love it too.

    Always a pleasure stopping by, beautiful lady!

    Come share your awesome style with me on my Thursday Linkup. A brand-new one is live this week, pretty lady. I'd love for you to join it. Thank you and have a great weekend!

    oh my gosh, yay! i am so, so glad you liked bridget! i really liked the 2nd movie when i first saw it, but i think i have watched it twice at most since, it really is a dud haha. the first is amazing, and i loved the 3rd one, so i'll just forget about the 2nd (god her hair was awful in that one).
