Happy Friday my loves! Seriously how did May just arrive like this? I am actually off today since I received an email stating that my PTO is ridiculously high and I needed to start taking days off before the end of the year……so no time like the present. I plan on taking a barre class today (such a concept, this week has been crazy with work) and I’m going stand up paddle boarding with one of my gal friends from the barre studio. Tomorrow, Mark and I are attending a gala for the local Children’s hospital that I work at. I’m excited to get all glamorous and have a night out with my man. Definitely make sure to follow along on snapchat! (meetatthebarre). My new camera and lens finally just arrived so I cannot wait to play with that all weekend long. Goodbye productivity. Hello gorgeous new photography.

Let’s get right into the favorites from the week!
I love her voice so much. A little slower and darker vibe this week but beautifully haunting.
I made these chicken fajita bowls and added fresh avocado for lunch this week and they were a winner in my book.
This printable workout. It is a burner. Gets that heart rate up and you will be sweaty by the end.
12 sites that will teach you coding for free. Great post about increasing blog traffic here. Did you read my post about how to create images people want to pin from your blog? Check it here.
Did you pick up anything from the SHOPBOP surprise sale? I scooped up these Joie laser cut mules that I have been coveting forever and they finally went on sale and were in my size.
Remember my tassel sandals from this post? Well, I found a great option and they are under $25 snag them here before sizes sell out. This scallop top which is under $25 is making its way to my closet. I love this blush purse and it’s under $50.
Here is an under $50 Spring Shopping Roundup
Funnies
When I attempt to complete any DIY project that involves a hot glue gun
When Mark asks where the peppermint oreos went
When I know the burrito assembly ratios is off and the rolling process is not going to be pretty
When someone asks me what my Friday night plans are
Finally. When I try to hook my 50 lbs purse on a barstool
Alrighty, tell me your favorites from the week and if you have picked up any recent sales. What are your plans this weekend? I hope everyone has a fab time!
Love that lace back top! I’ve never been able to find a racerback bra I like, so I’m always totally jealous when others can pull those off! ;) Heading over to check out your pinnable image post – I’m always up for increasing traffic!

I love this entire roundup! Your lace back cami is SO beautiful…I love pairing black with a bright color like your pink skirt. I actually laughed out loud over the video of the cat pulling the chair over. Poor cat!
Love that cami! Just dropped those sunnies into my amazon shopping cart! Have a great weekend!
Hahahaha the burrito roll-YES! I hate when it’s lopsided and not evenly mixed. #fail
YAY to a surprise day off, enjoy the weekend! That gala will be a great time, and playing with the new lens sounds awesome. Totally going to make those chicken fajita bowls for lunches this week!
That’s awesome that you had some extra PTO to take a Friday off! It sounds like your day off and the rest of the weekend is filled with some exciting plans! I love making taco bowls, so I definitely need to check out those chicken fajita bowls too! I hope you have a great weekend!
Ha the purse struggle is real! I still absolutely love that lave back top paired with the pink pencil skirt. So pretty!
The GIF metaphor of your purse on a bar stool – hilarious! Yay for a day off and some random PTO! Paddle boarding always looks so fun! Have a good weekend!
I hope you enjoyed that well deserved day off and have so much fun tonight!!!
So many good shopping picks today – that blush purse needs to be in my life. Hope you had fun at the gala, happy Sunday!
