Every week I sit down to write these posts and each week I’m in shock at how quickly the days pass us by!! No complaints on this particular Friday as it’s pay day and I’ve got my eye on some great things for Tax Free Weekend here in Massachusetts! As always – linking up with Amanda to share my favorites from the week!
Favorite Recipe
I pinned this recipe a while back and have been dying to make it – hopefully this will be the week! Have you ever tried Korean Beef before?
Favorite Song
I am loving this song by Maroon 5 – like most of their songs, it’s really catchy and apologies if it gets stuck in your head today! Side note Maroon 5 was the first concert I was able to go to on my own without my parents driving me junior year of high school!
Favorite Workout
The days I know I wont be able to workout after work and don’t quite feel like going to the gym – I run and then do a quick cardio/weight routine at home. This pop-sugar one is no joke and leaves you out of breath and it’s less than 10 minutes!
Looks of the Week

It’s no secret that I love Jessica Alba as evidenced here and here, but could these two looks be more perfect? She’s sweet and ladylike in one and bombshell in the other!!! And the hair…
Favorite Quote
Reminding myself to smile for those good days!

xo,
I love that Maroon 5 song…it's so catchy and sweet too right? That saying is perfect, it's all about attitude and how you choose to feel [99% of the time]!
Sigh, Jessica Alba, she just looks gorgeous ALL THE TIME!!!!
Love the link loves….the LC black tear….so sad! Have a fabulous weekend, beautiful lady!

I have been dying to make that Korean beef recipe! It looks and sounds SO good! Jessica Alba's looks were so good this week, she can do no wrong! Hope you have a great weekend!! xoxo
Dang. Jessica Alba is so gorgeous.
That korean beef looks so good. I love, love, love Maroon 5. That quote is perfect! Can Jessica Alba ever do wrong, stunning!
Ugh. Jessica Alba. Can she just stop being so perfect!? Love that second look of hers, I just know I could NEVER pull it off!

I've been dying to try that Korean beef too!! Jessica Alba is just amazing and has the best style, she always looks perfect. And I'm still sad about Robin Williams, just awful.
Have a great weekend beauty!
oooh YES! i made that korean beef recipe and i loved it! i added more veggies to it — 1/2 diced onion, and a cup of broccoli/cabbage slaw mix. so good. xo jillian – cornflake dreams
Oh Jessica Alba. She is gorgeous and has great style! I've gotten teary eyed reading some RW stories this week. So sad!
i have never had korean beef but it looks yum! seriously can jessica alba be any more gorgeous? its not fair. that workout looks good, i'll have to try it! off to read the 25 lessons robin taught us, hope i dont cry….
ok i freaking bawled. crying my eyes out.
Pop sugar has some great workouts! Love that pink dress too. Still so sad about robin Williams. Beyond sad.
That beef looks beyond delicious! Mmmmm! Also, that Jessica Alba picture with the pink dress…I'm dying! Have a fabulous weekend, B!
Ok the Robin Williams things got me! Dang you B! The quotes from Patch Adams are some of my favorites and that movie is enough to make anyone cry for a good hour after it's over. That recipe looks amazeballs, MAPS is my jam right now and I think I've overplayed it in barre class, that workout looks like it hurts so good. Happy weekend!
Love those looks that Jessica Alba is wearing. 🙂 Love LC too. So sad about Robin Williams. You just never know what people are going through inside. Chris is allergic to beef so I could never make that beef dish. I've found some good workouts on the Fitness.com Pinterest board, thanks for sharing the Pop Sugar one though! I hope that you have a fab weekend lady!! xo
Maps by Maroon 5 is currently my favorite song to run to. Alllllll of their songs are great & I cannot wait for their new album to come out in September! Happy Friday!
Love those links! Anything with Fallon and JT is the best! So obsessed with those outfits on Jessica Alba, if only I could pull those off too! Have a great weekend!
I love that quote and man that post about what Robin Williams taught us … literally almost had me in tears 🙁
Girl, can Jessica Alba seriously get any more flawless?! Everything she wears is perfection. I also am loving that song by Maroon 5! Have a fabulous weekend, xo.
Love love that quote. I was so sad to hear about Robin Williams. He was beyond talented and so very kind.
I also love Jimmy Fallon, he is so funny.
Have a great weekend!!
Love Maroon 5 and could Jessica Alba be any more perfect. I love both of those looks esp the 2nd one. Although i'd be more likely to wear the first one. I adore that quote and I'm not gonna lie I still sit an watch an episode of the hills here and there when they play it on weekday mornings! lol Have a great weekend! I have this whole weekend off so I'm excited. XO
Jessica!! Yes! Obsessed with that second look! That Koren beef looks so yummy!!!

Love Korean beef – will have to try that (and MAYBE the 10 minute workout ha). Have a great weekend! Loving J. Alb's second look too!
I love that Maroon 5 song too! I still can't get RW death out of my head. It's so tragic and so sad. Depression is such a terrible sickness. Have a great weekend love and enjoy some tax free shopping 🙂
I have never had Korean beef before, but that picture looks so yummy and now I am going to have to pin it and try it too!!!
Jessica Alba is one classy lady! Love her! And so is LC!!!! I wish I had her life! The TV show, the books, the fashion line, the girl has it all!
Have a great weekend!
That Korean beef looks yummy!! Looks pretty easy too which is always a plus! I gotta read the LC quotes. I used to love LB and The Hills!
Life as I know it
Ok def let me know how that recipe turns out! I totally almost pinned that pink # by Jessica Alba! Adore that entire ensemble- rockin' it! Hope you have a fabulous weekend girl!! xoxo
Jessica Alba always looks good- two gems right here though. And Maps is such a catchy song!

Anything by Maroon 5 I can just sing along to all day long! Love them! I've never had Korean beef before…I'll have to try it one of these days! And Jessica Alba…why must she be so perfect?!
Alright, California needs to get on the bandwagon of the "tax free" weekend concept! Especially since where I live our tax is around 9.5!
I'm with Laura.. Illinois/Michigan needs to have a tax free weekend, too!! I didn't even know these existed before blogging! Jessica Alba is adorable.. I saw her on Live with Michael + Kelly this week and I NEED her hair! Have a great weekend girl!
That recipe sounds like a winner for my fam… yummy, easy and cheap! I'm trying! Jessica Alba is really just perfection! Her style…. and Justin and Jimmy. Yes please!
The 3 top ingredients in ANY Korean dish = sesame oil, soy sauce, and garlic! If you haven't heard of "maangchi," she's an energy-filled lady who whips up easy-to-make Korean dishes. Check her out! 🙂 And Jessica Alba's pink number up there? Woo – so gorgeous! (I don't know if I can fix the no-reply issue so don't feel like you have to go out of your way to reply! :P)
Jessica alba is 100% flawless! Also Korean beef is delish! My husband is Korean and his mom makes the BEST Korean food! I am going to have to give this recipe a try! 🙂

That Korean beef is a go to in my household I will tell you….you need like 1/3 of the amount of sugar it calls for. I made it to the exact recipe and it was waaaaaay too sugary. Jessica Alba….I mean can she be anymore gorgeous???
Jessica Alba is so gorgeous.
Can't wait to see if you like the Korean Beef, I've been interested in trying it! I love pulling up the pop sugar work outs on my tv and doing them in the comfort of my living room!
Tax free weekend?! I want one!!!!
That recipe looks amazing, and love your looks of the week! I need those dresses! Happy weekend!

I've had Korean beef tacos and they were amazing. And I love Jessica's 2nd outfit.. I wish I could pull something like that off- but where would I even wear it?! Have a fabulous weekend!!
I think Jessica Alba is flawless! Love that first dress with her high ponytail! We have tax free this week too! I hope you guys have a great weekend!
Aw I love that quote! And thanks for sharing those links, I too am always Team LC haha 😉 have a wonderful weekend love!
