Tuesday Three

Here's what 3 things I am obsessed with today-

1. This eyeshadow duo from MAC

Culturalized is my favorite duo from the new MAC collection. It is limited addition so if you like it go to your nearest MAC counter soon. It is soo pretty! So happy I snagged this last week! 

2. Bath and Body Works Leaves Candle

This may be my favorite smell ever. It has been very rainy all week and it has made me in the mood for fall smells. So I lit my Leaves candle last night and the whole place smelled amazing in minutes. Bath and Body Works has the 3 wick candles on sale 2 for $20, yay!

3. These Brahmin bags I found in my inbox this morning



I love the orange! 


Have a great Tuesday!

The Friday Five

1. What I'm reading:

I finished Gone Girl. It was SO good! If you have been thinking of reading it for a while (like I was) then read it now! I started Before I Fall and am already over half way finished with it. While it is a little young in some parts, overall I have really enjoyed it. It is a very quick read and I'm dying to see what happens in the end. I already downloaded Her Best Friend's Brother to read next. It popped up in my recommendations and was only $2.99. The reviews were good overall so I will let you know what I think.What can I say? I'm a sucker for a cheesy romance.

From Amazon:
Libby has been in love with Tony Marchetti since she was seven years old. The problem? Tony is her best friend's older brother. Lately Tony has started looking at her in a new way and he emails her all the time. Could it be possible that he is starting to see her as more than his kid sister's best friend?

Tony knows Libby McKay is off limits. She's his sister's best friend for crying out loud! But she is also smart, funny, and seriously hot. Plus she's not afraid to get a little sweaty-- on the track that is. Tony can't seem to help himself, besides what's a few emails? The occasional phone call? He can keep things light and friendly-- Can't he? 

2. What I'm listening to: Aex Goot. He has amazing covers and original songs. Love him.




 
3. What I'm eating:


 
This stuff is addictive! I could literally go through a whole bag of carrots in one sitting. I am dying to try the Spinach Artichoke flavor but my Publix has been out this week. 

 
Pears! The red ones are my favorites, so sweet and juicy.

 
I honestly will eat anything from Chick-fil-A. This week I rediscovered my love for the chicken mini while running behind for work. 

4. What I'm watching:

 
Great music- check
Heartwarming stories- check
Hot Adam Levine- check check check

5. What I'm Bookmarking

This amazing blog with great DIY jewelry projects that I can't wait to try. This one I love! How cute are these friendship bracelets?!

 


I also discovered that my favorite bachelorette Jillian Harris has a really great blog with everything from fashion to design tips to recipes. It is so cute and definitely worth checking out! I love her design style.

What a Stud

What A Stud

 1. J. Crew
7. Sequin

I love love love stud earrings. . I like wearing studs because they are not so overpowering that you can't wear other jewelry. These are some of my favorites because they are classic and fun at the same time.

OMG Serena got married!!


Gossip Girl here. Your one and only source into the scandalous lives of Manhattan's elite.

It looks like S flew south over the weekend and tied the knot. Poor B, she wasn't even invited. Looks like there's a new Queen B or shall we say Queen Bride.

You know you love me.
xoxo,
Gossip Girl



I just couldn't resist! I am a huge GG fan so when I learned that Blake Lively aka Serena had gotten married in a very secret ceremony last night in Charleston, SC I was so excited. According to E! online she and Ryan Reynolds (swoon) wed last night at Boone Hall Plantation in Mt. Pleasant, SC. Ahh Romance.
Happy Monday kids! I hope it's a great one!

The Friday Five

1. What I'm Reading

I am almost finished with Gone Girl, I am at the point where I can't put it down. I downloaded a new book to my Kindle so I have one waiting when I finish. I'm pretty excited about it.



Samantha Kingston has it all: the world's most crush-worthy boyfriend, three amazing best friends, and first pick of everything at Thomas Jefferson High—from the best table in the cafeteria to the choicest parking spot. Friday, February 12, should be just another day in her charmed life.
Instead, it turns out to be her last.
Then she gets a second chance. Seven chances, in fact. Reliving her last day during one miraculous week, she will untangle the mystery surrounding her death—and discover the true value of everything she is in danger of losing. (taken from the author's website)

Lauren Oliver also wrote the very popular Delirium series which I plan to start after I finish this one. Has anyone read any of her books?

2. What I'm eating

  These with a little almond butter have been my go to snack this week. I love that they are baby size.

 Major pineapple kick this week. I've even been eating it with cottage cheese (cringe).

3. What I'm listening to



4. What I'm watching

Besides Big Brother about the only thing I've watched this week this movie. It was so good!! If you are looking for a rental this is one that guys and girls would love.


5. What I'm bookmarking

The Holepunch Sidewalk Skimmer 
These Madewell flats, perfect for Fall transition weather.

Aqua Color-block Boho Drops

Love these BaubleBar earrings. 




Please post a comment if you do The Friday Five, I love reading these posts!

So, let's talk about pens.

Ok. So let me start by just putting it out there that I am fully aware that I have a few OCD tenancies. But please tell me that I am not the only person that when someone steals a pen from my pen cup on my desk it drives me crazyyy. And then to top it all off, you walk into someones office and there the pen sits, on their desk. This happened to me the other day with not 1 but 3  pens, meaning the person had stolen all 3. I mean talk about rude. I went and rescued them during one of their bathroom breaks (bless my heart.) Literally as I am typing this post I am thinking to myself "why are you posting about pens?!" The answer is simple: I would like to know if I am crazy or not. Does this bother you??

 I'm the nerdy girl at work that has the cute cup on her desk with tons and tons of pens. I can't help it I just love school supplies.

These are my favorite. They just make your handwriting look cuter.



I like these too.. I love a good 2in1




but I really want these b/c they are scented.. "it gives them a little something extra don't you think?"
