Happy Friday friends! This was the first full work week I’ve had in a quite some time and I have to say it flew by! I can’t even believe I’m saying this, but we’re looking at what could be our first real spring weekend weather wise here in Boston and I’m so excited! I haven’t shared favorites in quite some time so let’s get right to it!
Meeting my favorite YouTuber / Blogger

Telling Lydia that I was actually from Boston and there for vacation!
I found out a couple weeks before we left for Ireland that Lydia Millen was going to be doing a event at Brown Thomas in Dublin on one of the days that we’d be there!! Since it was only two hours of an evening and not even during dinner – Gary told me I had to do it! So I bought my ticket and was able to listen to all of her wisdom and meet her at the end of the event!! She is so lovely and exactly how she comes across in her videos!! One of the perks was that the price of the ticket went towards any purchase of the store so I picked up her absolute favorite foundation and have been using it ever since! Full review to come!

I normally don’t like period pieces, but when we were on our trip we stumbled upon Mr. Selfridge on Amazon Video. In the 1900’s American, Gordon Selfridge, went to London to open up what is now the iconic department store Selfridges. He basically created the way we shop, how we see display windows in stores & more importantly that we are able to see and feel products before we buy them!! There are 4 seasons on Prime and we’re currently making our way through Season 3!
Sherwin Williams Bunny Gray

We finally selected a color for the nursery and decided to go with Bunny Gray from Sherwin Williams – it was between that and Behr’s Hush, but Jackie just recently painted a few rooms in their house this color and I really love how it looks! After swatching 8 different colors, I’m happy to have this checked off the to-do list! Now, Gary just has to paint!
Ann Taylor Floral Top

I stopped into Ann Taylor the other day and saw that they were having an additional 40% off sale items and I tried on this top and loved it!! It’s perfect for the cooler temps that we’re having right now, but light enough to wear even when it warms up a bit! It’s not maternity so I know I’ll wear it next year as well. I can already envision it with my white jeans this weekend!
After a few months of a bit of writers block, I have about 10 posts lined up that I’m really excited about! Hope you have a wonderful weekend friends!! See you back here Monday for some weekending!
How fun that you were able to meet Lydia Millen! And what great timing that you happened to be there for vacation. Such an awesome experience. Enjoy the spring weather this weekend, Biana!

Ok I need to watch that show- how can I resist a series about retail?! That sounds good!!
Can’t wait to see baby girls nursery when y’all finish it!
Eeeek how exciting to meet Lydia!!! I love the idea of painting the nursery grey, then just adding pops of color and you can always swap that out. I wish we did that for Ella's room!
Yay for Spring weather finally getting here. Let's just hope it stays! Have a wonderful weekend.

So so fun that you got to meet your favorite blogger in Ireland no less!! Crazy! Love the paint color–probably such a relief to have it finally picked. I know when you look at paint colors eventually you just feel cross eyed and can't tell the difference anymore. I'm sure it'll look awesome in the nursery!!

Love that floral top!! I love any time AT hits 40%!
I haven't heard of Lydia, but she is gorgeous and I love that she is who she comes across online! So cool you got to meet her while you were over there. Bunny Gray is such a pretty color!!! Zoe's nursery is a dark gray and I just love gray nurseries!!! They are so calming. I cant wait to see what you do with the space!
