Sequins and Sea Breezes: Friday Five

Friday Five

Happy Friday Ocean

Happy Friday lovelies! Hope everyone had a fantastic week! My work week was much more relaxed than last week so that was nice but I'm gearing up for next week where I'll be out of the office 4 out of 5 days... yikes. I'm scared to see what my inbox is going to look like. But enough stressing about next week, let's focus on the weekend but before I jump into my Friday Favorites, remember when I told you about the photo shoot I was doing for my work? Well it's finally out! If you get a chance, check out my photography skills on page 7 and 8 here

Friday Five - 4/8/16


1 // How cute is this little Polaroid camera? I used to loving using my Polaroid when I was a kid so this brings back a ton of memories. The mini pictures are so cute and it's so much more portable than the old Polaroid cameras!
2 // These are the perfect espadrilles for spring and summer. They'd look super cute with a dress, shorts or jeans and the color makes them go with just about everything. I also really love the smoking slipper in stripes and leopard!
3 // I am not one of the people blessed with amazing skin. I wish I was but I just wasn't. My face tends to get super oily and break out easily and I've tried just about everything. I found things that help but usually by lunch time I'm having to touch up my makeup to keep from looking like a grease ball. This day cream has done wonders for keeping my shiny zones in check throughout the day! I've definitely learned it's a precarious balance but I've been finding a lot of great products I'll share with you in a future post!
4 // Thank you to Lindsay for introducing me to this little miracle tool. My life has forever been changed!  I hate cleaning my makeup brushes but this makes it SO easy!
5 // I don't wear a ton of dangly earrings (they hurt my ears) so I love cute studs. These are so cute and remind me of the summers I used to spend in Maine with my grandparents. They used to live right across from the beach so at low tide me and my grandpa would go over and hunt for mussels and I loved the mother of pearl on the inside of the shell.

Hope everyone has an amazing weekend!

Linking up with Amanda for my Friday Favorites!

  24. Nice work on those magazine photos! So pretty! The makeup cleaner thing sounds great and $4.99 is a steal! Those black pearl earrings are gorgeous! I knew they had to be from Kendra Scott. I don't think there's one thing of hers that I don't love. lol
