Happy Friday...

[Our almost complete guest bedroom]

This weekend: Vegas-bound.

...{Wish List}...

There are plenty of stores on the strip, but I'm really looking forward to some outlet shopping.

Yup, I think I could use one of these. I've already convinced myself.

...{Design, Style, & Food}...

It's almost birthday month, so let's celebrate!

I'm in love. So pretty.

And finally, I better get ready for a busy month of work, travel, and birthday celebrations.

Happy Friday! Make it wonderful :)

Happy Friday...

[Last weekend's baby shower]

This weekend: I'm pooped. Time to relax.

...{Wish List}...

Less than a month until my birthday, which means the birthday wish list keeps growing: {1} and {2}.

Another golfing weekend for Nick, so I'm going to go oogle my soon-to-be birthday present.

...{Design, Style, & Food}...

Claustrophobia-inducing or paradise? You decide.

And finally, the pressure is on to finish the guest bedroom before my parents' upcoming visit.

Happy Friday! Make it wonderful :)

In my closet...

...Chanel aviator sunglasses. I already have these in gold, but I couldn't resist getting them in silver. Anyways, having a few extra pairs of sunglasses couldn't hurt in this weather.

...Louis Vuitton Nano Monogram Bracelet. I somehow lost the MARC by Marc Jacobs bracelet Nick got me for Christmas, so the only thing a girl can do is replace it with something equally fabulous (it complements my other bracelet, too)...

[Hot weather activities]

This weekend: A baby shower weekend in San Antonio.

...{Wish List}...

Preferred dress vs. reality (although, the reality isn't too bad).

Preferred shoes vs. reality (again, the reality is nothing to complain about).

...{Design, Style, & Food}...

I'm sure I can find something here to satisfy my sweet tooth.

And finally, I'm really looking forward to family time and some fantastic home cooked meals.

Happy Friday! Make it wonderful :)

In my closet...

...Two new Chanel nail polishes: Vamp and Mimosa. I'm wearing Mimosa now since it's the perfect amount of brightness to complement this weather. Vamp I will put away and save for later (much later).

...Lululemon Studio Surf Jacket. Continuing with my ~~mini~~ Lululemon obsession. This jacket probably wasn't worth the price I paid, but the colors were too cute to pass up.

[Enjoying the Indoors and Outdoors]

This weekend: Sounds like a good weekend for lounging poolside, which means I'll have to put this away for a later date.

...{Wish List}...

A day of golfing for Nick = a day of shopping for me.

Coincidentally, I found another perfect Spring jacket.

And also, a Spring dress.

Happy Friday! Make it wonderful :)

In my closet...

...Burberry Peplum Hooded Jacket. I purchased this thinking that it would be a light jacket to throw on when the temperature dips at night, but it's much thicker and warmer than I expected. I think I will still keep it though, because I like the look of it.
