Friday Favorites

Friday Favorites – Shopping Edition

December 9, 2016

Happy Friday my dolls!  I cannot believe another work week is over and we are cruising through December already.  I really would like to push pause for a second.  These holiday months are just flying by!  I feel like before I know it, I will be boarding a plane up to New York to celebrate Christmas and that just seems so crazy to me.  How is everyone doing with their holiday shopping?  I consider myself very lucky with a short to-do list.  Mark and I  don’t really exchange presents during the holidays.  We instead like to spend that money towards traveling or saving up for a big purchase.  We are also in total save mode for a house and I have been very strict lately!  Let’s get into some favorites from the week.

Definitely a step away from my usually EDM jams but I love this chill song from Alex Da Kid ft X Ambassadors & Elle King.

 

I will 100% be making this Thai Chicken Noodle soup this weekend.  It has finally “cooled down” here so this will definitely help warm anyone up.

 

Just ignore the Summer workout part and think about trying to shimmy into skinny jeans.  This is such a great scheduled daily workout plan.

 

Seriously, where has this been my entire life?!?!?  Can I even begin to tell you the frustrations I have with traveling and trying to get my pictures off of my SD card onto my phone for Instagram/Facebook/social media.  I usually have to upload to my computer, then email, so many steps.  Well, this little bad boy plugs right into your phone and your pictures can be saved that way.  How genius is this?  Everyone I know is pretty much getting this as a stocking stuffer because it is so freaking genius.  Speaking of stocking stuffers, I’m adding this Tarte holiday kit to mine.

 

You have to buy this sweater I insist.  It is incredibly soft, has a great weight to it, and looks extremely high end.  The best part?!?!?  It’s under $20 and comes in so many colors.  I picked up the red for the holidays.  Runs true to size, I ordered it in a small.

 

I received this conditioning oil in an Influenster box and I’m so intrigued by it.  Ditching shampoos are all the rage right now and this makes your hair incredibly soft and you don’t have to use conditioner.  My only gripe is it says to use a dime size amount but that was not cutting it for my lengthy locks.  Have you heard of these products before?

 

I have also been using this face oil for a few weeks and I am addicted.  If you have any redness to your cheeks, add this water gel toner.  It will make your skin so matte and reduce all the redness.  I finish it off with this TULA face lotion and it is the perfect regimen to help beat that Winter dryness.

 

The best website that rounds up all the workout pieces you need is Carbon38.  Have you checked it out lately?  There are so many fabulous brands on there.  My current absolute favorite leggings right now are the Alo moto leggings.  The fit is perfection and they are the best barre to daywear look out in my honest opinion.

 
Alright, now it’s your turn!  Link up and tell me your favorites from the week and what your plans for the weekend are.

    We like to spend money on travel experiences in lieu of stuff too, but of course Christmas is the time to spoil each other. That red cascade top is stunning! LOVE <3

    Ahhh I am so intrigued by the camera reader! I have an eye-fi card, but the connection is terrible and takes forever.
