Date Night Friday

This Friday night was one of the best that I've had in a while. The husband and I spent the entire day with each other in Manhattan (unfortunately NOT the Big Apple, but rather the one in Kansas).

I've been meaning to make these earrings for a while now, and finally got around to it today. My inspiration was from a pair that I saw on the Urban Outfitters website that you can find here. I'm not too thrilled with the final product, so I'm going to try a "Plan B".

While out and about, the Husband and I finally decided to try Orange Leaf Frozen Yogurt. I LOVED the assembly line set up, with tons of flavor choices and toppings. Of course, I topped mine with my favorites, gummy bears and maraschino cherries. And to top the evening off, we went to see the movie Safe House. Action flicks aren't my go-to choice in movie, but Ryan Reynolds sold me on it. Here's to an amazing weekend!

These Are a Few of My Favorite Things....

Throughout the day, I use many different beauty products for my hair, skin and face. In fact, it's almost a ridiculous amount. However, there are a select few that I absolutely cannot live without.
Oscar Blandi Jasmine Protein Mist
Garnier Fructis Sleek and Shine
Escada Taj Sunset *You can actually receive a free sample of any of their fragrances through their website!
the Balm's Shady Lady in Luscious Lani
Burt's Bees Nourishing Lip Balm with Mango Butter
Revlon Nail Enamel in Craving Coral *I couldn't find this color on their website, but it may still be in stores.
Tarte LipSurgence lip tint in Amused

Dress Me Up

Summer is quickly approaching, and here in Kansas, the weather is already reflecting that. After taking a walk through my closet, I came to the conclusion that my summer wardrobe, particularly the dress department, is lacking. So I gathered my top 10 skirts and dresses for this summer that I hope will find a home in my closet.
1. Betsey Johnson Pink Label Corseted Dress Urban Outfitters $128
2. Aztec Print T-Shirt Cross Back Dress Topshop $52
3. Blaque Label Limbo Mint Green Dress Lulu's $80

And So It Begins....

I originally wanted to start blogging at the beginning of the year..... but here I am, in the middle of March, finally getting around to it. I think the hardest thing about it was coming up with a name. I'm not even sure if I really like this one, although it just gives a generalization of what this blog will be about; pretty much anything I want, much like a journal. So, here's to the start of a very wonderful adventure.

Tomorrow brings something new, and I can honestly say I'm SUPER excited for it. I religiously watch Pretty Little Liars, and tomorrow (or today, since it is midnight) is "A Day"! Finally, the super stalker is revealed, and questions will be answered. Unfortunately for me, I get out of work half way through the episode, so I have to wait almost an hour until I can watch.

Happy Monday!
