Sequins and Sea Breezes: Friday Five

Friday Five

Happy Friday


Happy Friday lovelies! Hope everyone had an amazing week! Seriously, I cannot deal with how cute Meghan Hess' graphics are . I'm sure you're getting sick of them by now but I can't stop using them! So,  I'll be heading back to my good 'ol (second) hometown tomorrow for an event at my friend's brewery which actually comes at a great time! Tomorrow happens to also be my one year anniversary from being free of a job I was completely miserable at for years so cheers to that! It's amazing how much your personality and life can change when you're happy and believe in what you do. Ok, enough of that let's jump into our Friday Favorites with Amanda, shall we?


Friday Favorites Oct 16


1 // I'm obsessed with fall so I've been on the hunt for cute sweaters even though it's no where near sweater weather here yet. This sweater is adorable and definitely a must in my closet for cooler temperatures! Also totally loving this plaid poncho and you can't beat the price. I just don't know how a poncho would look on me...
2 // After reading The Royal We (multiple times), I had been looking for another "royal" book to read when I came across Suddenly Royal. It hasn't lived up to The Royal We standards yet (seriously, if you haven't read that book yet, do it! It's a light, easy read that's super cute) but it's definitely cute so far! And it's a trilogy so it should keep me entertained for awhile!
3 // I am definitely ready for scarf season. It's still way too hot down here to break them out without sweating profusely but when it does I am loving this plaid scarf. The neutral colors make it perfect for any outfit and it's so cozy!
 4 // Guys, this Bobbi Brown highlighting powder is so perfect! It gives you such a great glow without being super "glittery" if that makes sense. I'm seriously obsessed. The pink glow is perfect for fall to give you that flushed but glowing look.
5 // Bauble Bar is having their friends and family event right now so it's 25% off everything (someone help me, my bank account is ready to kill me!) with the code AMIGOS. I'm seriously in love with this chunky tortoise cuff and this constellation necklace. I'm also kinda digging this ring... I think I need more fingers if I'm going to continue to buy rings!

Hope everyone has a fabulous weekend!

    seriously, I loved The Royal We, and I have been searching for similar books, no dice. I tweeted them and asked them to write a sequel lol but they said it was up to their publisher, boo. Maybe if the book gets more popular?? Anyway, I will check out that trilogy!

  18. I've been loving and overusing those graphics as well, so keep 'em coming gurlie! And I'm finally almost done with The Royal We (almost finished last night, but the Saints actually pulling out a win trumped reading), so I'd love to dive into another royal-ish read! Have an amazing weekend at the brewery, and cheers to a year since you were able to move on to a much more fulfillin career <3

Hope the weather cools down for you soon, tomorrow's high is only 52 here in IL so it's definitely cool enough for scarves and sweaters! Have a great weekend girl!
