Happy Friday everyone!

One of my best friends is having a baby and I couldn't be more excited for her.

On another note, have you ever met a mother-to-be that is
having a girl that HATES the color pink?? I have!

I have been trying to find cute ideas to help her decorate
her nursery without using the color pink.
I just love this idea for a baby changing table!

I love a great hair tutorial!

Pinterest is greats for finding lots of hair tutorials 

and blogs that are dedicated to nothing but hair.

Here is the latest hair tutorial that I am obsessing over (I'm all about the ease).

I am always excited when I find something on Etsy that is cute and of great quality.

I like the idea of supporting someone's small business

and the fact that these items are homemade is also great.

Just got this in the mail yesterday and it is so cute!

The magnetic clasp is perfect too.

I am a subscriber of Jones Design Company and she always has the best prints.

I thought this would be a great one to have in any room of your house.

Ok, by now you get that I LOVE Lady Gaga, right?  Well, she just (finally) released her US tour dates!

I already have my eye on about 3 or 4 shows that I want to go to :)

Friday Faves 8/31/12

Don't you just love Fridays!?

I can't wait to get the long weekend started. 

Here are just a few of my favorite things...

________________________________________________________________________________

This Neon Dotted Cardigan from H&M.

________________________________________________________________________________

This Sock Bun Hair Tutorial!  It even works on shorter hair--Genius!

If you've never been on her blog then you definitely should.
She is a make-up artist and has some amazing tutorials.
She is the culprit for my obsession over beauty products.

Just finished reading this book and it is incredible!
I have literally read every book that Emily Giffin has written and I am hooked.
Where We Belong by Emily Giffin.

I just ordered this sweater that I've had my eye on for a while now.  It is so cute and oh so inexpensive!  

I am loving these chunky sweaters right now.

I never thought that I would be a monogram type of girl.  

Well, that all changed when I got married. 

 I find myself obsessing over the letter H. 

 Somehow I have managed to get monogrammed towels, a keychain, and now even jewelry.  

Who knew!?

This Monogrammed Leather Bracelet is adorable!

Have you seen all of those "claim this offer" things going around on Facebook??

I was very skeptical until one of my friends told me that it was legit.

I had my eye on one of those bubble necklaces for a while but they were all so expensive.

J Crew has them here for $150.00!!

Well, Lola Boutique was offering a coupon to get them for only $9.99!

So, of course I snagged this black beauty...

This was yesterday's post but I had to mention it in my faves as well...

Giuliana and Bill had their baby!!  I am so excited for them!

I mentioned before that I feel like I know them after I have followed their story so closely.

I was in tears when I heard they were finally going to have a baby and I couldn't be

happier for them now as they welcome their baby boy to the world--Edward Duke Rancic.

Check out the story here.

Have a great weekend!

Arm Candy

Stacking bracelets is definitely not a new trend but it certainly is one that isn't going anywhere anytime soon.  There are no rules...just load up on all of your favorite bracelets and have fun 

with different textures and colors. 

Adding a large faced watch adds the perfect touch to this stacked look also.  

Check out this post to see some of my favorite watch options.

Happy Monday!

What I'm Loving Right Now...

I am constantly finding things to put on my never ending "shopping list".  Have you ever seen that "True Life" episode of the girl that is addicted to shopping??  Not sure where I was going with that...I don't have a shopping problem :)  I pretty much just like to see what is out there.  I am just as content with window shopping than I am leaving a store with bags all the way up my arms.  

Here are a few things that I have my eye on right now...

These Amazing Ombre Jeans.

Anything with Polka Dots mixed with Bold Colors.

(via Definitely, Beautiful)

This Adorable Elephant Linked Necklace.

(via Novica)

This Michael Kors Buckle Bracelet in Gold.

(via ShopBop)

This Beautiful Blouse...for only $25.90!

(via SheInside)

Denim on Denim...never thought I would say that.

I've been on the lookout for months now for the perfect denim shirt.  

(via BlackandWhite)

Do you keep a running "shopping list" like I do?  That's totally normal, right?

Trends I Am Loving...

There are so many different trends going on right now and I am having the best time trying to keep up!  One thing that I am loving is the fact that there aren't any "rules" anymore.  Trendsetters are allowed to just have fun and be themselves.

Stacked arm candy...

This trend was super hot in the Summer and I'm gladly seeing that it has carried on into the Winter months.  I especially love when bracelets of many textures are added with a large faced watch.  Very cute!

Boots with Socks...

(via I love Lowie)

Such a cute idea!  Honestly, we all wear tall socks under our boots anyway right?  Nothing annoys me more than when I wear ankle socks with my boots and after walking for a while, my sock has come completely off!  Am I the only one??

I especially love the frilly socks!

Which trends are you loving right now??
