Friday Favorites

March 20, 2015

It’s time for my Friday Favorites.  This week I wanted to share some things that you’re probably not expecting and others that you would definitely expect from me.  By the way, I just taught myself how to use the PicMonkey photo editor and I LOVE it!!  I made my cute little Friday Favorites graphic for this weekly blog series.

Friday Favorites

 

Bare Minerals Pop of Passion Lip Oil-Balm:  These lip balm stain are amazing!  They have passionfruit seed oil in them to moisturize the lips.  But best of all they last a long time and give the lips a bright stain even after the shine has worn off.  I bought two of these in Candy Pop and Punch Pop.

InStyle Magazine  and Allure Magazine:  These are my two favorite magazines to read on a monthly basis. They’re both full of great beauty advice, products, etc.  And InStyle also has great fashion trends.  What are your favorite magazines to read?

Yoplait Greek Yogurt Whips:  I love these as dessert after dinner.  They’re only 100 calories, are packed with protein and come in so many different flavors.  It’s like having mousse for dessert.  So far my favorite is the raspberry.  I’m wondering if these would be good frozen…  Anybody try that yet?

My Kate Spade Sailor’s Knot Stud Earrings:  I wore these every single day this week.  I’ve been preferring stud earrings these past few months and these are great for everyday wear.  I have the silver ones, but they’re also available in other metals.

Lancome Hypnose Mascara:  I’ve loved this mascara for several years now.  This is the original formula (not the drama one or the star one or the doll one or the waterproof either).  This mascara gives me length and volume and never lets me down.

Have you been loving anything this week?

    Hi Stacie!
    I’m a fairly new YT subscriber to your channel and I’ve now found your blog, Pinterest and Instagram (itsbri13). Thank you for all of your helpful information. I love to curl up with a blanket and my iPad mini and catch up on past videos and of course, I’m learning a lot! I see you are a vegetarian. Would you think about doing a little post and/or a video on what you eat and how you balance that with cooking for your family (if they aren’t vegetarian)?
    Thanks again!
    Hugs,
    Sabrina

If you’re wondering where I’ve been the last few d If you’re wondering where I’ve been the last few days, I’m in Michigan for our annual family reunion. And I must say, the weather here has been in the 70’s during the day which makes me not miss the heat wave back at home in Texas one bit.

Running quick errands on a hot day calls for a loose fitting dress and comfortable sneakers.

Summer isn’t quite ready to leave, but I’m already Summer isn’t quite ready to leave, but I’m already reaching for rich fall colors. 🍂

#ad One of my favorite ways to transition into fall is by layering lightweight pieces from @soft_surroundings that keep me comfortable on warm afternoons but are also perfect for when the temperatures start to cool down. It’s an easy way to ease into the next season.

These warm, earthy colors feel so timeless, and each piece can be mixed and matched with other wardrobe favorites.

Do you have a favorite fashion season?

I love finding pieces that look polished, feel com I love finding pieces that look polished, feel comfortable, and don’t cost a fortune—and this affordable chambray midi dress checks every box.

It’s lightweight, flattering, easy to dress up or down, and perfect for everything from brunch to vacation to running errands. I truly think this is one of those wardrobe staples that works for women of all ages. Just switch up your shoes and accessories to make it your own!

And speaking of accessories, how fantastic are these jewelry pieces?! They’re from Noonday Collection, a fair-trade lifestyle brand that partners with artisans in vulnerable communities to create handcrafted jewelry and accessories. By providing these makers with dignified work, the company aims to alleviate global poverty and empower women.♥️

The beautiful bag is borrowed from Vivrelle. I have a discount code if you want it. And the shoes are possibly the comfiest ones I own.

I started with an eyeshadow palette that has a variety of textures and shades in the rose family to create a million different looks. And yes, you can wear shimmers and whatever else makes you feel confident even if you’re a more mature woman.😎

You can’t go wrong any of the makeup brushes from BK Beauty to apply and blend your makeup. This eyeshadow brush is one of many that I love.

The foundation stick is new for me and I’m wondering where it’s been my whole life! It’s that good. Just swipe, blend and go. Available in so many shades that there’s one for everyone!🙌🏻

Adding depth and glow to the face couldn’t be easier with a multitasking palette of bronzer, highlighter and blush. It’s perfect for travel too.✨

The lip glow is fun because it’s a pH reactive one so it’s almost like having a custom shade that’s just for you.
I’m kinda giddy over here because I get to use thi I’m kinda giddy over here because I get to use this beautiful Louis Vuitton handbag for a month. I borrowed it from Vivrelle and their membership service. They have hundreds or maybe even thousands of luxury designer bags to choose from. 

Comment CODE for the link and my discount code that gets you 50% off your first two months.

It’s a great way to try beautiful bags without committing to a single bag. I’m having so much fun with this membership!👜

Thank you @vivrelle for the gift of this membership!
