Happy Monday lovelies!! So the weekend was definitely a quick one, could have had something to do with the two hour nap I had on Saturday, but that’s what snowy weekends are for, right?!! You would think Mother Nature has proved her point, but alas she’s decided to dump a few more feet of snow here in New England, luckily it didn’t stop us from having a really great weekend!!
After a pretty busy week, I was in the mood for a cozy night in and watching a romantic comedy on Friday night, so we ended up renting Love, Rosie. It was super cute and had something for both of us.
Saturday morning my friend {and first client} Stephanie and I went to a vendor appointment and then obviously worked up an appetite! Besitorecently opened in Chestnut Hill and I couldn’t wait to try it out!! It’s super authentic and the carne asada tacos were delicious!
That night Gary and I made our way to the Liberty Hotel to celebrate my good friend Jackie’s 30th birthday!! If you have the chance to visit Boston, you must make a stop or stay at the Liberty Hotel. At one time it was the Charles Street Jail and it’s one of the most popular spots in Boston!! The restaurants and bar/club all have “jailhouse” themes including where we ended the night – Alibi!
We had an incredible dinner at Scampo – top 5 meals of my life for sure!! The lobster risotto was out of this world!
Jackie provided all the ladies with the cutest Kate Spade straws and coasters for us to all take home at the end of the night!
I’ve honestly been out more in the first two months of this year than all of last year, which I’m happy to keep going!!
All the girls!
I had the best time with some of the sweetest people I know!!
I’ve been on a mission to find some new bedding for our bedroom and I finally found the perfect set at Marshall’s on Sunday. It actually brightens the entire room and makes it feel bigger! Also found one of my favorite perfumes that was on my “from me to me” gift guide for Valentine’s Day!
I tackled my closet Sunday afternoon and was able to get a decent amount of clothes separated into keep, donate and sell! The real question is whether or not I made a dent…the short answer is no!
Did you watch the Grammy’s? For the most part everyone looked really good, but can we take a moment to talk about Madonna and her performance?! She is 56 years…let that soak in for a moment – she is seriously timeless!!
And to start this Monday off on the right foot, I’m also participating in a Valentine’s Day loop giveaway on Instagram.
Iit’s running until Feb. 11th so if you’re interested in having a chance to win check it out here!
Hope you all have a wonderful start to your week and hope you link up below to share your weekends with me and Meghan!!

Looks like a fabulous weekend, lady! Loved the shirt you wore out, such a beautiful color on you.
Glad you found the new bedding, it's lovely! Purging is great, but man is it a lot of work, great job! Happy Monday, love! Stay warm, I hear there is more snow headed your way!
I hadn't even heard of that movie you guys watched on Friday so now it's getting added to my list π Your weekend pics looked like so much fun and what a fun "theme" throughout the area. I enjoy the name of the bar, Alibi…perfect day to find out about the Serial situation right?? lol
I agree…T Swift's dress was AMAZING. Love her! Im thinking about you guys this morning–I heard you got more snow??? They said you had a total of 60 inches so far this season. Sending warm thoughts your way!!!
You had a very busy weekend! Love the new bedding, very pretty. Taylor really rocked that dress and the shoes!
That dress you wore to the birthday party is such a gorgeous color on you! I love how you always have these cozy Friday nights in! Love that geometric bedding you found. Happy Monday, lady. Hope it's great!!
What a fun weekend!! Definitely going to have to check out The Liberty Hotel if I'm ever in Boston. Glad you got to wear that dress again! It really is gorgeous on you! Love the new bedding set too! Happy Monday love!!

That hotel looks amazing, and it looks like you all had a good time, but that dress that the birthday girl has on is fabulous! Super cute birthday outfit.

Looks like a fun weekend!! The Liberty is such a great hotel!! Cannot get over that we are having more snow! Another foot today, it's just too much at once. Stay warm!!
This snow is killing meeee — i did the same thing on Sunday, cleaned out my closet π
Those tacos look amazing!!! That hotel sounds really cool too, and you all look so pretty for birthday celebrations!
I didn't watch the Grammy's, award shows aren't really my thing anymore. But Taylor Swift looks absolutely amazing! Have a great week!
That hotel sounds awesome! I love something with history like that. I'm not an award show watcher in general, but I did see several outfits throughout social media and other than Rhianna I loved what I saw! Looks like a fabulous weekend! Hope you have a great week!!
I'm seriously in love with your bedding! I'm on the hunt for some new, bright bedding too! I love that you've been going out more! What a fun weekend!
More snow?! You poor thing! It was almost 60 here this weekend and I almost died of happiness!! It looks like you had a great weekend either way π Taylor looked the best I've ever seen her last night in that teal gown. Swoon.
I love the Liberty we stayed there I think like 2 years ago and it was such an awesome hotel. How cute is she sending you home with little favors?? Love your new comforter set! Marshalls is seriously the best! Looks like you had a great weekend!!
Carne asada tacos are my favorite, and those look delicious! I'm so jealous. I could eat Mexican food everyday!
Absolutely loving your dress you were rocking for your friend's 30th… gorgeous! And I think I may need those save water, drink Champagne coasters π
Looks like you had a great weekend and SO productive! You should do a blog sale:)
Have you tried using Poshmark to sell your clothes? Itβs such a great way to make money and so easy! Lobster risotto is one of my favorite meals. So good!
I've been to that hotel! It's cool. We had drinks there one afternoon when I was in town celebrating my BFF's birthday.
Love your new bedding.
My closet is on my to do list this week!
Have a great Monday!
what a fun weekend for you–as usual!! love those coasters. girl, i need to get into my closet and do the same. one weekend!!
Oooh I really want to try Besito, I've been to the Chestnut Hill mall a million times but haven't gone yet!

Looks like you had a fun weekend! It's so cute that your friend had a Kate Spade-themed party going on. That place seriously looks cool. Love your new bedding, too! Happy Monday!
Oh my goodness! More snow? more FEET of snow?! That is crazy! Come visit me in Arizona π
Love your bedding! and your weekend! Seriously, sounds perfect! The only thing we did was make an expensive trip to urgent care, lame!
Ok is Boston usually this bad in the winter? I know it's New England, you get a decent amount of snow, but I feel like it's just been nonstop this year. Every time I check the weather they're talking about how much snow Boston is getting. It sounds like you had such a fun and eventful weekend! And how sweet of your friend to give away little favors for her party.

Liberty Hotel looks like so much fun! I love me some D&G Light Blue, but it does not love me. The scent gives me migraines, which is pretty much the best/worst thing ever to have set them off. Boo for more snow- it's getting ridiculous up there!! -Dorrie @ Bear Den Plantation
I love those Kate Spade coasters!! Your lavender dress is so pretty and I am gonna start my closet today. It is bad. lol Loving the new Marshalls find too! Have a great week! xo
Those coaster are SO cute! It looks like you had a fun and productive weekend! Both of your meals look out of this world good! YUM! Hope you have a fabulous week! xo
Looks like a fabulous weekend in spite of the snow!! I've never even heard of that movie, but I checked it out and it looks like something I would like. Ever since we got rid of cable, I'm so out of the loop with movies! Love your new bedding. That is something that's high on my list right now. Ours is so embarrassing, but at least it's the same colour as my dog, so it doesn't show her hair!
I love that bedding! I picked up a comforter a few months back at Target but I'm not in love with it. I am a huge fan of the Ralph Lauren sheets I bought separately to match the comforter, I've always head people say good sheets are worth the investment and now I'm a believer!
The lobster risotto looks amazing! Looks like your friend had a great birthday celebration!
Way to go on cleaning out your closet. That is always on my list!

those tacos look So good! congrats on cleaning out your closet…isnt that the best feeling?! xo jillian – cornflake dreams

long naps are the greatest β I had one (or two) of those too! Saturday sounds like such a fun night out β what a cool hotel! What great Marshallβs scores. I love/hate closet organization β but you must feel so good now that itβs done! Iβm going to do mine in March between seasons.
Your weekend looked amazing! I'm always looking for a fun movie on a Friday! Going to check out Love, Rosie! Also so jeal u went to chestnut hill!

Your dress is absolutely stunning! Happy Birthday to Jackie. You lot had a lot of fun, obviously.
Yay, congrats on your fist client! That must be so exciting. Sorry y'all keep getting nailed with snow… We spent the whole weekend outside with the wonderful weather! Except I didn't have any lobster risotto, so you've got that going for you π
I have to get back to Boston, seriously how awesome is that Liberty Hotel? I got to spend one day in Boston on our way to Bermuda and we just loved it! Love the bedding you found too, very cute! Happy Monday!
The lobster risotto looks SO good! Also love that purple dress (shirt?) on you – such a pretty color! Glad you had a good weekend xo
Looks like a great weekend! I'm setting a goal to clean my closet this week. There is just so much stuff I want to get rid of. A closet overhaul always makes me feel like I can breathe again.
I've never even heard of that movie, but I think Lilly Collins is cute (in a non weird way), so I'll have to check it out. That hotel sounds really cool and those coasters are super cute! Sounds like a fun night. Your bedding set looks great too – it definitely looks bright and cheery! Happy Monday girl!
I'll have to check out that movie, I'm always in the mood for a good romcom π I saw the post you had on Instagram with those coasters….so stinking cute! And all that food looks absolutely amazing. I need a trip to Boston! Glad you had a great weekend Biana! Hope your week is just as good!

I love the dress you wore to the party! Such a gorgeous color. Love, Rosie sounds like a cute movie-I'll need to check it out. Also, that Marshall's bedding is perfect!
Looks like a great weekend!!! Love the new bedding! I've never thought to look at Marshall's before, so definitely will take a look next time!
What a cool restaurant/hotel! It looks like such a fun night out and you look gorgeous! Cleaning out your closet is one of the best feelings I think– even if you don't get rid of as much as you had hoped π I'm not a big fan of T Swift but she looked incredible!
Those tacos look amazing and so does the lobster risotto. Yum!! I think if I lived where it snowed I'd be 2-hour napping all day long! Great weekend girl!
That liberty hotel is so dreamy! Glad we are in the loop giveaway together too!

I love that bedding! Looks like you had a really fun weekend.

I've never even heard of that movie. We gotta find one to go see for Valentine's Day.
I thought Taylor Swift looked amazing. Those shoes!!!
i'm loving your friend jackie's dress! she looks like a princess. that was a solid weekend my friend. you had lobster so that's what i consider a great weekend. π
i didn't even know the grammys were on until i was channel surfing and my vagina was not prepared when i caught adam levine all dressed up in a tux. yum.
What a fab weekend! The tacos at Besito look awesome as well as your lobster dinner! That's a good heaping pile of clothes to donate…It always feels good to clean out the clutter. I think it's my turn now!
Hey Girl!! I am inspired by your clothes sorting and purging! I NEED to do this, and have been putting it off for a month already.. :(ο
Way to go!!

Those tacos look awesome! Sounds like a great weekend. Taylor once again was killing it at the Grammys. Her legs! My word.

I need to do the closet organization thing too! I know I won't get far but I think I'd make a dent by just starting!
Sounds and looks like a great weekend! I'm totally in love with TSwift's dress, how cute and effortlessly chic. Also I totally love Home Goods/Marshalls/TJ Maxx finds sometimes they're the best!

Hitting my closet is definitely on my to-do list! Espcially since that closet will become baby's closet! Eek! Have you thought about doing a blog sale or insta sale with your clothes? I bet you'd have really good luck with it!
Such a cute and fun post! Looks like you had a fabulous weekend! I love that dress you wore to the birthday party! I love a good closet cleaning!

That hotel looks and sounds pretty cool. I will have to go there some day. Your friend's party sounds like it was fun too. That food at that other restaurant looks delicious too.Who are your picks for best dressed at the Grammys last night?! I'm glad that you had a nice weekend and I hope that you're having a good Monday!!
There is a Besito opening in Tampa…soon. I can't wait! I was all about a night in on Friday – sometimes they are just good for the soul!
love, rosie looks cute and i love lily collins so i am so watching that! i love that you've gone out a ton this year already, i'm jealous – jan and feb are such slow months for me and my social life lol. way to go on your closet, baby steps π

Love your new bedding! Marshalls/TJ Maxx always have the best little finds! The Liberty Hotel sounds like so much fun – definitely will hit that up if I get to tag along to Boston with Nick this summer π Happy Monday!
I seriously can't get enough of romantic comedies (although the hubs don't feel the same hehe) and I haven't heard of that one–def going to have to rent it!! And can we talk about Taylors dress–ahhhmazing!!

What another fun weekend. Your risotto absolutely looks amazing! I would have scraped every last bite out of the shell hah. Great score on the bedding, as well!
Nice job on the closet!!! I know, it never feels done. And those tacos look great!
I've added the Liberty Hotel to my Boston list…it looks so beautiful! Speaking of Taylor looked incredible last night!
I love that pink/purple dress you wore! So pretty. Sounds like another awesome weekend π Oh and I hear you on the new bedding; I just got a new set last week and it makes the whole space feel different and better and it's just awesome haha!
I say this every Monday…you have such fun weekends! My hubby likes to stay home so we haven't even seen the San Antonio nightlife yet. I really want to try some of the well-known restaurants here. I need to make some girlfriends that'll do it with me!!
Sounds like the perfect weekend! That lobster risotto looks sooo good! And I love your dress! Happy Monday π

I'm gonna have to stop reading your blog until I finish this fast because the food is making my stomach growl! JK, of course! Love the new bedding! Marshall's is the best!
I've never heard of that movie but it sounds really cute! Looks like a lovely time with friends! Love your new bedspread!
Girl, I hear you! I am so over this snow its not even funny! I love Clink! I desperately need to go through my closet and donate some clothes! You would think with all of these snow days, I would not be so lazy and just do it!
Love your new bedding and thanks for the movie recommendation! I feel like there hasn't been a ton of good movies lately. Taylor looked amazing, loved her color combo π
I organized my closet this weekend, too. I'm attempting to do the whole 'capsule wardrobe' thing, but I think I may need to modify the rules a bit because there is no way 30 items of clothing is going to work for me!

Very productive weekend! You totally deserve a nap on a snowy weekend. From the Grammys Taylor was by far my favorite, her purple shoes were perfect!

That's one luxurious jailhouse! Ha! It looks like a castle from the outside. Definitely adding it to list of places to visit when I go to Boston.
Also, I was looking for a cute movie to cuddle up with for Valentine's Day. This just might be it! Thanks π
How gorgeous are you and all your gals?? Loving that hotel…such a fun stop when I eventually visit Boston!! =)
That jailhouse looks fun! Need to visit when I'm in the area.

That hotel looks so awesome!!!!!! I love your dress, too!
Love that bedding set you found! It's so hard to get rid of clothes! But at least you started the process and made a little dent! π You look really pretty in that color pink that you wore out for your friends birthday! You should wear it more often! π
