Sequins and Sea Breezes: Friday Five

Friday Five

8/28/2015

Happy Friday

Happy Friday dolls! Hope everyone had a fantastic week! I'm finally starting to feel a bit better so I'm looking forward to relaxing a bit this weekend. Thank goodness for draft posts otherwise I probably would have only posted like once this week! 


1. I bought this earlier this week and I am obsessed! Yay for Amazon Prime and getting things 2 days after you order them. This organizer is the perfect way to keep my daily makeup organized and it's super pretty. The black inserts can be taken out so make it all clear and the best part? It's under $20!


2. I bought the Valentino Rockstud dupes I posted about last week and I am obsessed. They fit perfect and they are actually really comfortable! I ended up going with nude but now I want them in red and snakeskin print. I'm also obsessed with these lace up flats. I have a feeling I'm going to be wearing a lot of flats this fall.



3. So... I told myself I'd be done with buying lipsticks for awhile but I am obsessed with this color for fall! It's absolutely gorgeous and the name, Studded Kiss, goes great with my new shoes!


4. Apparently I don't own a single purple shirt. Or dress. Or skirt. Nada. Guess purple isn't my color. But I'm going to an Orlando City Soccer game on Saturday and their color is purple so I picked up the Flowerista color by Essie. So perfect for the game and it looks gorgeous in person!


5. Guys, soup season is RIGHT around the corner and this tortellini soup looks amazing! Is it too early to to make soup? I mean, we're supposed to get a hurricane on Tuesday. That means soup is ok, right? I don't know where my justification came from there but I'll take it!

Hope everyone has an amazing weekend! See you on Monday!

    Those lace ups?!? DYING! Love! I have seen those clear boxes for makeup everywhere but that is the best price I've found! May have to do a little purchasing. That nail color purple is beautiful!

    I don't even wear make up and I'm in love with your organizer! Oh my gosh, definitely would be a nice addition for our bathroom

    Girl how do you not have anything purple? I love purple! But duh that's obvious. I love the softer purples not necessarily the super deep ones.
