Happy Friday! Today I'm linking up with Andrea, Narci, and Erika for Friday Favorites.

Well hands down passing my Series 7 is my favorite this week. If you missed my post on Wednesday, you should check it out! I did a lot of celebrating with friends. So thankful for their encouragement and for them being so happy for me! Just for reference a 72 is passing.
This was the snapchat my roomie sent out at dinner!
We tried a new restaurant near our apartment. Pizza and prosecco...what dreams are made of.
Last night, I did a little more celebrating but with my coworkers this time. We had a potluck taco night and Rachel brought champagne for a toast! Love her!
Also, let's be real, I love Snapchat filters too. Please tell me I'm not alone on this one.

After my aforementioned Series 7 Exam I went to the mall and did what I do best. Shop. I bought a new MAC lipgloss and a new MAC lipstick. I'm really loving them this week!
The lipgloss is a light pink. I really wanted an easy lipgloss to throw on and this fit the bill. The fact that it pairs beautifully with my favorite MAC lipstick, Snob, didn't hurt either.

Hahahah that meme cracks me up. I've decided that starting Monday I'm going to start eating clean. I got way off track because of stress and studying. I'm ready to eat better so I can feel better. I don't want to call it a diet because that changes my attitude towards food. I just want to eat a lot of fresh fruits and vegetables and less junk. I started pinning some recipes I thought looked good on Pinterest. I hope they help me eat cleaner!
I would love to hear if y'all have any tips, tricks, and recipes to help me eat cleaner. I'm good at the working out part but the eating part...not so great. Feedback is appreciated!

The lipstick scared me at first, not going to lie. It looks very dark. But on it's really pretty!
Sorry for my awkward soft smiles, I just want you to have a good look at the color!

I'm so ready for college football! Especially, my Tigers. Football season and tailgating is my absolute favorite! It'll be here before I know it.
I think this dress might have to come join me for one of my first games back as an alum.

I try to keep my blog light and fun. I try to keep it as a way for me to look back and see what it was like when I was right out of college. But one of my biggest passions in life is women's rights. I can't wait to see a world where women are equal to men. Recently, Netflix won over my heart more than for their shows...they announced they're offering paid maternity and paternity leave for their employees for a year. What an incredible step for a corporation to take! I hope this inspires other companies to make improvements.
Well, I'm ready for a weekend full of FUN after 2 months worth of weekends studying. I wish everyone could celebrate with me! Have a great weekend, friends! xoxo
Would you be willing to post the names of the MAC lip gloss and lipstick? Both are so pretty! I hope you post some clean eating recipes as you go!! thanks :)
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely--sorry about that! I linked them to where you can buy them but didn't mention the colors...oops! The lipgloss is Mineralize lipgloss in Tender. The lipstick is Quelle Surprise. Hope that helps. Have a a great weekend!
Deletethank you!!
DeleteLoving the sparkly champagne flute! Enjoy a weekend of FINALLY no studying for ANYTHING!!! XO
ReplyDeleteThanks so much, Tammy!
DeleteHave a fabulous weekend. I'm starting working out/eating better Monday. The kids start back to school so I am using it as a fresh start for everything!!!!
ReplyDeleteAhh we can eat healthier together!!
DeleteThat strawberry sorbet is INCREDIBLE. I pinned the exact same recipe and it's AH-MAZING. Also, loving your lip color... yay for MAC :)
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad it's yummy! I'm going to make it soon!
DeleteI have been eating clean for a few weeks now, and I can't tell you how much of a difference it makes! I have more energy, and I just feel so healthy! Maybe I'll post some of my favorite recipes on my blog! Have a great non-studying weekend! You deserve it :)
ReplyDeleteI'm hoping it'll make me feel better too! Definitely post some recipes!
DeleteYay!!! So excited you passed! I remember how that felt & it was such a freeing feeling! So glad you were able to celebrate & treat yourself to a few goodies :) Totally agree on Netflix! Such a great thing for their employees.

Glad someone can relate to my Series 7 struggles!!
DeleteLooks like you had a great week celebrating! I love that lip gloss and lipstick combo, it's actually a light color I may be able to pull off #staytuned! Definitely agree about netflix, I hope more businesses adapt to that kind of change. I'm an Auburn fan so we are actual somewhat football rivals ahhh!! Have a great weekend girl!

Funny thing...I almost went to Auburn! Like lost a deposit. So crazy!
DeleteSnapchat filters are amazing. And for eating tips --> when I buy vegetables or fruit that I know I want to eat for a snack (like peppers, cucumbers, grapes, watermelon), I cut it up as soon as I get home and either put it in individual Ziplocs or one container, depending on how I plan on using it. Then when you are STARVING there is an easy snack to grab with no prep required and you don't eat the whole thing...I am known for doing that with fruit :)
ReplyDeleteThat's a great idea! You're healthy eating inspires me :)
DeleteI love your new pink MAC lip gloss!
ReplyDeleteThat orange dress is perfect for tailgating as an alum :)
Hope your weekend has been a great one, Lauren!
