Friday Favorites



Good morning, friends! Today I'm linking up with Erika, Narci, and Andrea for Friday Favorites!

This week has been crazy! Being in the finance industry, the market has made work very interesting! I like a little shakeup every once in awhile. 

ONE

My Mom and sister came to visit this week. They met me at my apartment after work and then we went to dinner. Of course the only pictures I took was of my delicious food!

I had gnocchi for dinner! YUM!


Seriously, drool. Then we went to a bakery in the city. I had creme brûlée and a dark chocolate and cinnamon macaroon. So remember that diet I mentioned last week...oops.


TWO

When I get ready in the morning or before bed I always play some music from my Beats Pill. Well I decided to bring back an old playlist with some of my old favorites. This beauty came on and suddenly everything was right in the world....


I'm slightly obsessed with Britney. She's my all-time favorite. I have her autograph from when I was little...I might need to find that.

THREE

As much as I hate that it's dark when I drive to workout in the morning...


I know dark mornings mean fall is approaching. I'm pumped about fall! 


September is next week...I can't wait for my favorite season. 

FOUR

I hadn't bought a nail polish in awhile and wanted to mix it up. So at Publix the other day I grabbed Essie in "Wicked." It's a deep red so much so that it appears black or dark purple. It's perfect for heading into fall. 




FIVE

This weekend is going to be so much fun because my friend from college, Lisa, is visiting! It's going to be a weekend full of girl talk, going out with friends, and yummy food! She's such a great friend. I love you, Lisafer!



Friends, it's been a great week. I feel like I'm in a really great spot mentally and enjoying where I'm at. All in God's timing. See you back here on Monday! xoxo

Pssttt...and if you missed this week's posts don't forget to check them out! Read about my trip to the Paralympics in Sochi, Russia and learn more about me thanks to Julie for nominating me for the Liebster award!
