Favorites Round Up


Apologies for my absence yesterday (although I’m sure you didn’t notice) but sometimes you just need a “you” day! It’s going to be a fairly low key weekend for me as we’re headed back to see Gary’s parents and hopefully get some pool time in! Linking up with my girl Amanda for another round of favorites!! 








Favorite Look:

I don’t usually opt for fashion bloggers as the look of the week, but Rachel from Pink Peonies looked gorgeous in the orange lace number from Top Shop! 





Favorite New Snack

I’m a huge Greek Yogurt fan and recently started eating Maia’s Vanilla Bean as a late morning snack 2-3 times a week. It’s a little high in the sugar because it’s all natural (so it’s straight from the fruit & a little cane sugar) and is gluten free. It’s also packed with probiotics, which is so good for your digestive system! 





Favorite Buy

Baublebar is having a sale almost too good to pass up – so these little beauties are on their way to me! 




Favorite Appetizer

I have been on a real avocado kick lately and can’t wait to try this Avocado Toast with Pico de Gallo – she also shows 4 other recipes to try with avocado!

    Ok Rachel is killing it in that dress. Jealous. Of the dress and how much she makes blogging LOL! And that twin thing was crazy! Apparently chewing gum makes you look like less of a jerk? Haha!

    That dress is gorgeous!! The twin commercial is pretty funny, basically chew gum so you don't have resting bitch face?!

    Oh my love that dress on Rachel! I also love that Top shop clothes are stylish but can be so reasonably priced. That appetizer looks so delish right now I cannot even tell you!

    I watched that whole video….it was interesting but honestly the other twins all had resting bitch faces so it wasn't a fair study in my opinion 😉 That dress is gorgeous! Oh and I need to make that recipe right now!

    I love Greek Yogurt and now I have to try out that brand. I love that it's pretty low calorie but doesn't have fake sugar. I hate fake sugars.

    I noticed you were gone!! holy moly that dress is freaking gorgeous. she always looks pretty amazing though, right? her hair. mmmm avocado is my favourite summer / spring / all year thing. yummo. that twin video was so weird, i think (for me) chewing gum gives a bad impression when people do it with their mouth open. yuck! interesting video though 🙂

    I watched that chewing gun commercial and was totally agreeing that the one chewing gum looked nicer haha! But I would like to see ALL the questions they asked as it was clearly biased in their favor!

    Happy Friday! Rachael always looks awesome, doesn't she?! I have such a hard time with greek yogurt and/or avacados!! But you make it look/sound so good! haha! I'm so picky! 🙂 Have a great weekend!
