Sequins and Sea Breezes: Friday Five

Friday Five

6/20/2014

 
 
Happy Friday dolls!! I was totally off this week having a random day "off" in the middle of the week so Friday snuck up on me! Luckily my allergies are so bad I can't sleep so I could write this post at the crack of dawn! I had totally planned on writing it last night but apparently I've become a lightweight in my old age and a few glasses of wine later and I'm passed out cold. Either that or allergy medication and wine don't mix. Either way, good to know as I probably made a fool of myself walking through Target after said wine and allergy meds. *Sorry Target patrons and Kerri*

Now it's time to link up with the lovely Amanda for the Friday Favorites!

1. I made this with brown rice and it was amazing! Then again, I'm a huge fan of anything with balsamic vinegar so I guess that shouldn't be a huge surprise to me that I loved it. Definitely making this again soon though!

2. Totally obsessing over this outfit. Green and stripes are two of my favorite things right now. Absolutely loving the mixed patterns too!

3. I seriously can't do my own hair. It always looks ridiculous when I make an attempt to so usually I just don't but I love this. It looks simple enough so I might give it a try... don't make fun of me if it looks like a 2 year old did it... 
 
     
4. This is me literally at least once a week. Most recently, right now. I don't really know why I can't sleep some days, it's not like I'm much of a late night person (hello in bed by 10 pm) but even on the weekends I'm up by like 6:30 am and if I wake up for some reason in the middle of the night, it's over. 
 
 
5. Last, I leave you with my favorite moment from the week. Me and Kerri from Cheshire Kat totally jamming out to Jimmy Buffett while on The Tonight Show at Universal Studios on Tuesday. If you didn't see my post recapping the whole day yesterday you can skip ahead to the important part and watch the video here! ;)
 
Hope everyone has a fabulous weekend! Now It's time for me to attempt to go back to bed!

  2. I hate when my allergies act up. LOL I always drink wine with my allergy meds, and some times I think it helps kill off the allergy!
    That recipe sounds delicious, I'm going to try it soon! Have a fab weekend. Hope you get some rest and feel better!

  22. Insomnia is the worst! I have a prescription for Ambien I use every now and then, but most of the time by the time I realize I'm not going to be able to fall asleep, it is too late to take an Ambien! I totally want to try that braid and the Buffett concert looks so fun!
