Happy Friday, y’all! I’ve seen some funny things on the internet this week that I’d like you to consider putting in your eyeballs. Enjoy and have a fun weekend!
My wardrobe needs some help. The drab colors in my closet have been getting me down lately! And no not this kind of down, this kind of down. Leave it to Modcloth’s new arrivals to lift my spirits! Here are a few items I can’t wait to get my grubby little hands on.
Scott and I took a road trip to attend a friend’s wedding in Scottsdale, Arizona last May. Along the way, we met some dinosaurs, grilled cheese sandwiches, generals and delicious(!) world famous date shakes from Hadley Fruit Orchards. Enjoy the pics, then go have yourself a darn good Wednesday!
Happy President’s Day! Hopefully you’re out frolicking in the sunshine instead of stealthily reading my blog at work. Target is having a great sale over on their fancy website. Get 20% off clothing, shoes and accessories through the end of today with the promo code DEAL20. I’ve listed a few of my favorites below. Enjoy! Oh, and if you want to spruce up your place, take advantage of the 30% sale on home goodies. Happy Monday!
Hi guys! Happy Friday! And happy early Valentine’s Day! Y’all know I’m excited to spend some holler-day time with my boo. This week has been a fun one being back in the swing of thangs. I found a ton of online goodies that I just couldn’t help but share with you. Enjoy the links, and enjoy your weekend. See y’all later!
- This sweet-arse bag by Emily McDowell. (Actually, I love everything she makes.)
- I love Kristen Wiig. Like, loooove. I want to be best friends with her (and Maya Rudolph, Amy Poehler, Melissa McCarthy, Sandra Bullock and Michelle Obama) and meet up for coffee to talk about boys, Bar Method butts and Pinot Grigio. (And like rocket science, the formula for sticky note glue or whatever else isn’t a stereotype.) I had an emotional reaction to Kristen Wiig’s amazing performance at the Grammy’s last Sunday. Of course, I love Sia too and would want her to join our girl gang. Her songs are just suuuuuh geeeeeewd.
- Owls. I think that’s all I have to say here.
- How cool are these Photoshop trends? I love the tattooed celebrity ones. (I would.)
- My parents used to have these reggae parties in the backyard. Because this is what happens when you grow up in Austin. I remember lots of party juice, cool shorts and Bob Marley music. It was great and I will recreate this one day. Reggae party anyone? This summer? Eh? Eh? This thing on? Ahem. Listen to this a cappella cover of Bob Marley’s Could You Be Loved.
- It’s a special thing when our president asks influencers to use their power to help end violence against women and girls.
- I am going to win a big trivia game at some point because I look at posts like this.
- I’m a geek and totally love this.
- Shots of the city, the color blue, those shades, those sneakers, lurve everything about this post from Damsel in Dior.
- I love the Dress Your Tech series on DesignLoveFest. These particular ones featuring Our Heiday are dreamy. Just gorgeous!
- My Virgo-ness is totally geeking out about these desk drawer must-haves from Cupcakes and Cashmere. Gold spray painted toy cat? Check.
Last Saturday was National Ice Cream for Breakfast Day, arguably the most important holiday of the year. Just kidding. Kind of. Scott and I took this opportunity to visit Coolhaus, a gourmet ice cream spot born from the inventive minds of two gals from Los Angeles.
The story goes the co-founders bought a postal van on Craigslist, tricked it out with their love of design and architecture, then drove it to Coachella where they wowed festivalgoers with their delicious funky flavors like Avocado & Sea Salt, Sweet Potato Marshie, Fried Chicken Maple Waffle, Fruit Loop Cereal Milk, Grapefruit Tarragon & Gin and Nutella Almond. They now have trucks in LA, New York, Austin & Dallas and two storefronts—one in Culver City and the other in Pasadena. I’d like to be friends with these girls. Hey Natasha & Freya, call me!
Enjoy the pics, then go find a local shop, truck or retailer to get your sugar fix. P.S. If you missed celebrating National Ice Cream for Breakfast Day, I won’t judge you for making up for it the rest of the month.
