...MARC by Marc Jacobs Standard Supply ID Bracelet. I'm still upset that I lost the brown one Nick got me for Christmas, but I'm less upset now that I have a replacement.

Happy Friday...

[Baking my little heart out]

This weekend: I could be an aunt at any moment!

...{Wish List}...

I packed light, but a trip to the outlets is planned to take care of that.

...but just in case, I have a backup plan: {1} and {2}.

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

Victory! Made these and they were delicious.

And finally, weekends in San Antonio means lots of family time, shopping, and just downright pigging out - my kind of vacation.

Happy Friday! Make it wonderful :)

...Burberry Check Placket Wool Cardigan in Mid Gray Melange. I have this in black, but I've found that it's a great layering piece so I wanted it in gray.

[Little dude has the right idea]

This weekend: Quiet time.

...{Wish List}...

Yippee! We're Paris-bound, so I'm on the hunt for some chic Fall outfits.

For sure, Nick and I will be bringing our matching jackets: his & hers.

Before then, though, I'm going to pick up some more Summer stuff while there's no one to scowl at me this weekend: {1} and {2}.

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

And finally, I really love the look of mason jars as accents to a room, so coming soon to our home: soap dispensers and chandelier.

Happy Friday! Make it wonderful :)

...Louis Vuitton Damier Ebene Eva Clutch - a little birthday present for myself I picked up while in Vegas. I've already done a good job of putting it to use (as you can tell by the scratched up inventeur plate), so I'm pretty happy with this purchase.

[Another weekend by the pool. It's supposed to be hot, hot, hot!]

This weekend: Last normal weekend for a loooooonnnnngggg time.

...{Wish List}...

Yep, I see a new pair of Louboutins coming my way (perfect shoes for this Burberry top).

Found! A must-have bag for the pool (and any short excursions).

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

And finally, hands-down the perfect Summer cocktail.

Happy Friday! Make it wonderful :)

Burberry Check Canvas Trainers (these were the shoes from last week's Tuesday Shoesday). I've never really been a sneaker girl (I'm more of a flats kind of a girl), but I think these would be really cute with shorts. I'm anticipating wearing these all ~~Summer~~ year long, especially on our walks to Old Town.

[Happy birthday to my princess!]

This weekend: Another long weekend for me (I'm working the Summer schedule, so I get a half day off every other Friday).

...{Wish List}...

I bought another bathing suit this week, but I've got swimwear fever. Some more must-haves: {1}, {2}, and {3}.

Also, new sunglasses are a must: {1} and {2}.

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

And finally, two Summer-ready drink ideas to try: Fish House Punch & Fresh Strawberry Mint Lemonade...although, nothing beats southern style sweet iced tea.

Happy Friday! Make it wonderful :)
