Weekend in Pictures-Partying It Up

Happy Monday!  I hope everyone had a fabulous weekend!  I actually was in heels two out of the three nights….that is quite the change for this one over here.  Let’s recap in pictures.

If you follow me on Instagram you’ve seen a few of these already.  Friday night I got my hair did for the Pure Barre Grand opening party.  After half a bottle of hairspray I had some curls that Farrah Fawcett would have been proud of.

Got to catch up with some of my Pure Barre family!

One of my favorite clients! (cutout dress notice ;-)

I didn’t fall off the stage during the fashion show so I definitely call that a victory!  We clearly couldn’t change as fast as we needed to (I wanted to upload more of it because the Karma line is really gorgeous but it was taking way too long!).

Saturday I did some returns at the mall and met my girlfriend Kelly.  We stopped by the cafe at Nordstroms.  That food is seriously amazing!  We split a sandwich and pizza.

I mean look at this drink and food menu!

Spied this dress!  Love the color and cutouts! Great price point!  I’m obsessed and it fits so well!  I mean how amazing is this color for the Summer???  Check it here.

They were on sale and I had a gift card…..so they were almost free right?  I really love them! They are really lightweight and a different dark grey olive color.  Find them here.

New Sephora scores.  Check back this week.  Will highlight these in my currently loving post.

Sunday morning woke up with a Nespresso.  Best investment ever!  Rarely ever get Starbucks now.

Sunday I got a Barre class in followed by 30 minutes out by the pool.  Summer is setting in down here. It was so humid out I barely lasted that time.

I did check out Amanda’s suggestion for the Bachelorette Party Pandora station.  The first song that came on was this.  I was immediately sold.

If you remember from this post No Diggity is my jam.  I was totally digging this station thanks for this suggestion!

Sunday night was the Retirement party for my mentor.  Dr. Henry was one of the first Doctors to bring Pediatric Cardiology to the West Coast of Florida.  I was the first Nurse Practitioner in the group and I was so privileged to train and learn everything from him.  It was a beautiful party honoring an exceptional man and Physician.

Sunday was an early night getting ready for this week.  How was your weekend?  Did you get out and enjoy the gorgeous weather?  Since I was so on top of this weekend I have some great posts for you! Make sure to check back this week!  xoxoxo

    7. i dont listen to pandora, but i think i need to.
    8. aw thats so sweet about the mentor party. thats really awesome! sounds like you really look up to him!

    also, totally agree with all the barre ladies looking hot. guess i need to start taking classes!

  11. You looked so fierce for your Pure Barre party! I mean seriously, I would kill for your figure. I pretty much feel like a stuffed sausage now compared to you. It looks like you had such a fun weekend, hope you have an equally great week!

  14. I almost followed Kristen’s lead and wrote a list but first of all LOVE whatever lipstick you’re wearing at the Barre event! It looks amazing on you + I’m impressed with your walk down the runway! So fun! That dress is so gorgeous– I’m usually not a big orange fan, but for summer it would be perfect! Your nespresso coffee looks so good & I can’t wait to hear more about the makeup you picked up! It looks like a few winners :)

  16. I love that color fo summer! I bought a dress that color for a wedding this summer. That food at Nordstroms looks soooo good!

  19. Let’s talk about how much I love the dress you wore to the party! If I didn’t like you, I may hate you, lol. I keep telling myself I need to go to the cafe at Nordstrom’s! I really must.

  24. Uhm, I’m sorry. We can’t be friends anymore. You’re too pretty! You did such a good job walking the runway–I would have fallen flat on my face for sure. You looked freaking fantastic for that party!! I’m in love with that orange cut out dress and have a really bad itch to pick it up for some of the weddings I have this summer! The retirement party sounds like it was so nice!!!

  36. that orangey/coral dress is fabulous! i can’t believe it’s only $66!!

    your farrah fawcett hair looked great!! (true story i just had to scroll back up to figure out that Fawcett was not spelled “faucett” omg).

    -lauren :)

  37. Someone had the best weekend! I am jealous! Your hair looked amazing for the Barre party and I had no idea Nordstrom had a cafe like that, holy cow that food looks delicious. I the view from your pool, how beautiful. I miss FL!

  38. Girl look at you working the runway and that hot little black dress! Pay on playette! Love it! Also, that dress you spied just screams summer!!!

    No Diggity is one of my jams too!

  40. Looks like a fabulous weekend!! Your hair was gorgeous!!! My hair never holds big curls – and I love your new sunnies :) :) happy Monday, girlfriend!! Xx

  47. I really really need to get one of those Nespresso Machines because after going over my budget, it seems silly how much money I spend at coffee shops. I am definitely going to look into one of those.

  53. I WISH I could say I got out and enjoyed the beautiful weather but we didn’t have that! 30’s and 40’s still here! Such BS! You better enjoy some more of that pool time for me! Sounds like a great weekend you had! I love your hair with all those curls! It looks great! And I love that cut out dress and your new shades! Glad you found some good deals! :)
