Favorites Round-Up

Where did this week go?? I blinked and it’s Friday! I’m pretty excited for the weekend since I’m running in my first race with 3,000 of my closest friends- HA! Let’s just all pray I don’t pass out and embarrass myself!

Not to worry – I don’t run like this…at least I don’t think I do! 

Meet At The Barre

Onto my favorites of the week!!

Favorite Workout

Leaving my TIU girls this week and trying out these four exercises from Cosmopolitan. 

Favorite Song

I have professed my love for Lindsey Stirling before – but she has a new album out and this song is one of my favorites. She’s a really cool violinist that basically does a dubstep version of her songs! I’ve been running non-stop to this album!! 

Favorite Look of the Week

via

I mean can Blake Lively look any more gorgeous!! Aside from her having pretty much the best body out there – she doesn’t have a stylist and dresses herself!! That means all those celebrities that do have stylists and still end up looking a mess need to hire Blake! 


Favorite Beauty Product

Alicia over at The Dumbelle  hosted an awesome giveaway and I was the winner of the Too Faced Chocolate Bar ! I can’t even get over the smell – it seriously smells like chocolate when you open it and it’s so pretty I don’t even want to use it – but don’t worry I will!

Favorite Mail Item

(super random but I couldn’t think of what to name this)

If you aren’t using Ebatesyet – please do your online buying self a favor and sign up for it!! You basically go there before making purchases and if the store or site is available for cash-back they create a ticket and send you to the site…that’s it nothing else to worry about! Also, if you travel a lot for work, all those tickets you’re buying are eligible for cash back!! 


Favorite Show


So this may sound like a pretty crazy idea for a show, but when is Bravo not crazy. Basically The People’s Couch records people watching our favorite shows…so yes you’re watching someone else watch TV…but the beauty of this show is the different age ranges and types of people they have on the show and the craziness that comes out of their mouth. It’s everything we say to ourselves while watching the same shows! 

That’s all I have for you today – hope you all have a fabulous weekend!! 

xo,

Biana


Also linking up with Christina, April& Natasha!!

    I love that you said I don't run like that atleast I don't think I do! I thought I ran normal then Theo told me one time I looked like a baby deer trying to run!! So rude!! I'm not a runner anyways so not a problem. He was way exaggerating anyways haha. Blake looks gorgeous as always. And I keep forgetting to use Ebates when I shop online which is often!! Have a great weekend!

    Blake Lively in one word is perfection. She kills it whenever she steps foot onto a red carpet. I've been swooning over that Gucci dress for days now. Good luck in your race, you'll do great!

    Isn't Ebates awesome? I was so excited to get my first check a few months ago but since then I keep forgetting to use it when I shop online and have missed out on getting reimbursed for several purchases!! Ugh!

I wonder if she's like nice or bitchy…..hmmmm That first gif cracked me up! YEAH!!!! for winning a rafflecoptor…..still hasn't happened but still keep on trying!

    My husband just asked me last night if I knew of Lindsey Sterling…definitely going to have to check her out! And I do love Blake, although she'll always be "Serena" in my mind! Have a great weekend!

    Shatter me is my favorite song off the new album! I don't understand the need for stylists, like you can't figure out what you like and don't like on?!

    I am OBSESSED with Blake Lively right now. She's amazing! I also loved the Chanel dress she wore. xo

    Gotta look into this Ebates business and this Lindsey Stirling chick. They both sound like they're right up my alley!

    I had no idea Blake Lively that doesn't have a stylist! And she always looks 8 million times better than everyone else! The People's Couch is hilarious and I have the Too Faced Chocolate Bronzer and it smells sooo good! Makes me want chocolate every AM 🙂 Good luck with the race this weekend, can't wait to hear about it!!

    I had no idea Blake didn't have a stylist…she always looks so beautiful! I've been on the Ebates bandwagon for a while and it's seriously the best thing – who doesn't like free money? You should also check out Shop at Home, sometimes their percentages are better than Ebates!

    That running gif is too funny! Also I love love love Blake's dress (although sometimes I think she in general is overrated).

    Good luck at your race this weekend! I'm sure you'll do great!! Never heard of Ebates! Too cool! Might have to look into that! Have a great weekend!
