Friday Favorites – The First of May May 5, 2017
Can you believe that we are already cruising into May? It is going to be football season before we know it! This week definitely flew by for me as I hope it did for you. I submitted all the grades for the classes that I teach and now I’m enjoying the tiny break before the Summer semester picks up again. What are your weekend plans? The weather is supposed to be gorgeous in Florida so I have all intentions of being outside as much as possible. Let’s get into some favorites from the week!

I am trying to slowly switch over all my products to brands that are approved through the EWG site. Beauty Counter is a no brainer and I have loved every single product I have ordered. I just picked up this body wash, lotion, and it came with a body butter sample. The smell. I can’t even. It’s so light, citrusy, and the body wash, the tiniest bit goes a long way. I seriously used a pea sized amount and it lathered up my entire bod. Christina from Hungry Meets Healthy is my hookup for all Beauty Counter products and she gracefully agreed that any orders from here she will give a sample of the charcoal mask. I also have this and it’s such a great mask. If I feel anything starting to pop up under the surface I dab it on and go to bed, the next morning it’s gone. The lipstick was also added to my last order in the Terra shade and it’s the perfect daytime color. The foundation is next on my list. Have you tried any of the beauty counter products? I have loved every single purchase and you can feel good about the ingredients you are slathering on your body. Last incentive, if you spend over $150 you get a free lipgloss. Definitely is the time to get your new stash of products.
This tutorial has many steps in Lightroom but the end result is beautiful, using the clarity slider. Check it here.
I did this at home yoga video the other day it’s a great 30-minute mix of stretch and getting the heart rate up. Definitely one of those you don’t want to workout but you feel so much better after you’re done.
Tell me how good this recipe looks?!?! I definitely want to add this to the menu for the weekend.
The prettiest Spring top that is a perfect staple. The hemline on these jeans and the price point are a major win. This floral dress would look adorable with a straw hat and this gorgeous Chloe dupe. I am swooning over these mod block sandals.
Now it’s your turn! Link up and tell me your favorites from the week and your plans from the weekend
The weather is going to be the opposite of gorgeous here this weekend LOL! I tried that charcoal soap and loved it – definitely excited to try more products out!! xo, Biana –BlovedBoston
Congrats on finishing up grades for the semester! My last paper of the semester for grad school is due at 9 pm tonight. I’m so ready to be done!
That bag looks perfect for work! I love all the pockets!
Loving that black work bag! I like that it gets softer over time, so many bags just wear out and look dingy, this one looks like its like wine and just gets better with age!

I like the work bag! I’ve been looking for more bags that are large enough to be useful, but are not too casual/sloppy-looking.
YES to the clarity slider! That’s a great tool for it! Love every look, you’re styling is so good!
That black tote is seriously fabulous! I really like those block sandals too. Such pretty detailing without being over the top. And totally pinning those quesadillas! I have never tried anything beauty counter, perhaps I need to check it out. Hope you have a great weekend! Cant believe football season is right around the corner. Time to start stocking up on Zoe’s Bama gear!
Those heels go perfectly with the dress! Love the outfit!
I think that I need that floral blouse!! Those coral shorts are super cute too. I also love your new tote bag!! A good quality work bag is life changing haha. I hope that you had a great week and that you are having a fab weekend so far too!! :-)
The makeup artist I used for my wedding has started talking about Beauty Counter a lot lately! I’ll have to check out the products!! I love that lip shade!!
