Friday Favorites, 1st Edition

December 1, 2017 Leave a Comment

 

Whew, the past two weeks have been absolute chaos around here! If you follow me on Instagram, you probably know that my 3-year-old broke her ankle two days before Thanksgiving – so needless to say, we’ve been slowly trying to get back into a normal routine since then.

I wanted to pop in today to share a few favorites – hopefully this will become a regular blog series, so stay tuned!

1 – BlankNYC Distressed Denim

I’ve been on the hunt for the perfect pair of distressed jeans and I even tried on the coveted pair of Rockstars from Old Navy that everyone recommends – but I really didn’t love the fit! I saw these BlankNYC jeans on several style bloggers and thought they looked really nice and high-quality. Unfortunately, they weren’t part of the Nordstrom Black Friday sale, so I did a little searching and found a very similar pair at South Moon Under that were over 50% off last week! In fact, they’re 40% off right now – so grab a pair while you can!

BlankNYC Jeans and Old Navy Cardigan

2 – Old Navy Long Cardigan

Another piece of clothing I’ve been on the lookout for was a long cardigan to throw over a t-shirt or blouse on chilly days. I tried on one at LOFT a month or so ago but I left without buying it, and have pretty much regretted it ever since! When Old Navy bombarded me with a thousand Black Friday emails, I finally took a peek and saw this one on major sale so I snagged one in gray. Love it!

Silk Almond Creamer Pumpkin Spice

3 – Silk Almond Pumpkin Spice Creamer 

If you’re like me and obsessed with all things pumpkin, run (don’t walk!) to Target and grab a cart full of this stuff. Since I cut dairy over a year ago, I had been trying to find a really good alternative creamer, but most of the ones I tried were no good. This one has a great flavor, doesn’t have a bitter taste (for some reason, I think coconut creamer tastes bitter in coffee) and it comes in pumpkin spice flavor. I’ve also tried Vanilla and I approve of that one, too!

Coconut Mint Drop Bath & Body Works4 – Coconut Mint Drop ANYTHING at Bath & Body Works

I hadn’t been in B&BW in YEARS, but I ran in quickly during a big sale on their hand soaps and grabbed a bunch of holiday scents. I am obsessed with this Coconut Mint Drop scent – it smells amazing! I have the foaming hand soap, but I would highly recommend any of their products in this scent 🙂

Last week to this week ➡️ We’re SO grateful Last week to this week ➡️ We’re SO grateful for a quick recovery from pneumonia — having a sick child is scary enough, but to top it off with no space in our local hospitals’ PICU and being flown to Asheville, you can imagine we were beyond stressed last week 😩 So so grateful she’s back to normal and on International Women’s Day, it felt like a good time to celebrate Brynn 🥰 Thank you to all of our friends & family who reached out, lent a helping hand and kept us in your thoughts & prayers ❤️

Prolon Day 3 | The day started off really good — Prolon Day 3 | The day started off really good — I felt very clear-minded and awake this AM 🥳 Truly, I was nervous because today was a very low-cal day and I wasn’t sure how I’d feel 😅 I did grab a plain iced espresso because my energy was depleting super quickly and that def helped 👌🏼 After lunch, though, I started to hate depriving myself of real food and disliked that I couldn’t push myself in my workouts like I usually do 😒 After dealing with three kids who clearly woke up on the wrong side of the bed 😆, slicing my hand open with a knife and being cranky and irritable because I’ve been hangry for 3 days, I caved. And sorry, not sorry ✌🏼 I just wanted a dang salad and some protein so I can lift heavy things 💪🏼 Moral of the story, listen to your body and what it needs. And maybe try a 1-2 day cleanse/fast because that’s about all mine could handle 🤪

@prolonfmd Day Two | Overall an easier day than ye @prolonfmd Day Two | Overall an easier day than yesterday 👌🏼 Time went by faster and I didn’t have any nausea from being hungry…I looked forward to and savored all of today’s meals — the black bean soup for dinner was actually really good (esp with a little cumin + paprika!) 🙌🏼 I did @pure_barre this AM and then a @onepeloton walk this afternoon…keeping it light because of how little I’m consuming this week 😅 Not gonna lie, nervous for day 3 because it’s the lightest day of food and I’m already pretty hangry in general 🤣 Interestingly, I’ve felt pretty amazing today other than just craving a real meal 👌🏼 Btw, was so hungry for dinner that I forgot to share it in the reel 🤦🏼‍♀️
