Sequins and Sea Breezes: Weekending

Weekending

2/09/2015

 
Happy Monday dolls! I hope everyone had a fantastic weekend! We had absolutely amazing weather here this weekend so I spent a lot of time enjoying that.  Of course it's supposed to rain today so I guess our gorgeous weather is over for now. I guess I can't complain too much, I'd rather it rain when I'm at work instead of rain on the weekends, right? Ok, let's get into my weekend recap shall we? Linking up with my girl Biana! Just as a warning, I was a bit of a bad blogger this weekend and didn't take too many pictures but I also didn't do a lot so I guess it balances out!
 
 

Friday night I kept it pretty low key. Some wine and a very competitive game of Monopoly is how my night went. I lost, in case you were wondering. Although I have to admit, I don't know if I've ever actually finished a game of Monopoly before (with the exception of this time) so I guess that's a win, right? 

Saturday I did some shopping but didn't actually buy anything. I hate it when that happens. I had specific things I wanted to shop for and it was either out of stock in my size or out of stock in general. I did try on this bikini:


And I full plan on getting it for this summer. They didn't have the bottoms in my size so I'm just going to order the whole thing online. I'm just slightly obsessed with it. It reminded me so much of a Mara Hoffman suit! 


Saturday evening I attended a wedding and it was a gorgeous venue with perfect weather. The cocktail hour was out on this patio overlooking the lake so of course I had to snap a few pictures before enjoying a glass of wine and taking in the views.


I danced my feet off until almost 2 am so Sunday was spent relaxing, recovering and reading. No more football means I get to spend more time reading outside and doing other things so I spent a little bit of time down by the pool. As much as I miss football it's nice to have the weekends open to do whatever. 

I hope everyone has an amazing week!

That swim suit is SO cute, and just made me realize my swim suit bod is just not going to be what I thought it would this summer :( All that hard work to look good in a bikini.... AH!
    Love that you played monopoly! I can't get Eric to play games with me for nothing! I guess I'll be playing chutes and ladders and hungry hungry hippo with Mia before I know it :) ha ha!

  18. Wow, I would never have guessed that that bikini wasn't by Mara Hoffman. What a great find! You know, I don't think I've ever finished a game of monopoly either.. Finishing can definitely count as a win!

What a gorgeous location for a wedding and it was clearly a good one, if you were dancing until 2am, how fun! That picture of you is beautiful with the way the sun is shining.
