Friday Favorites and Happenings

Happy Friday all! After a busy last weekend, we don't have much planned for this weekend. We have dinner over at a friends house and that is about it. Rory does have golf today with his old work (my current work), so it is just the girls and I for dinner tonight. What do you have planned this weekend?

Onto Friday Favorites and Happenings.

ONE. So a couple weeks ago I told you about a pair of jean shorts at Target that Lindsay recommended to me. I got one pair, tried them on and then wore them a day or two later. They are comfy, stretchy, but don't over stretch throughout the day and are the perfect length for chasing kids around without showing anything. I am not one to turn to high rise anything, but these are amazing. They are so good that I bought another pair. I got the same size that I get in American Eagle jeans (size 2) and they fit perfectly.

TWO. I received the Ralph Lauren Romance perfume from Influenster and I tried it on before I went out with my friend Nathalie a few weeks ago. Upon the first time, I hated it. I felt like it smelled too much like cologne rather than a woman's floral perfume. But another blogger and friend, Missy, loved it. I thought I would give it another try since it didn't bother me that much (some perfume scents disgust me and I have to wash it off). And I liked it more the second time. Then I wore it again last weekend for our dinner out and again on Mother's Day. So I guess I found a new perfume that I like.

THREE. I went shopping at Nordstrom Rack to get another body suit that I love from there in a different color, but they only had white which I already purchased. I wanted black or a tank version of the body suit, but they just didn't have it. I did find a tank version online that I am going to order and have it shipped to my local store, so I don't have to pay for shipping. But if you are looking for a great bodysuit, this is a perfect one.

FOUR. But I did grab two tank tops for the Summer at great deals. I got this Madewell Muscle Tank and a Halogen Blank Tank. I have the Chealsea28 tanks from Nordstrom that I love, but they are starting to pill and fade. Plus the Halogen tank was only $9.97. Now to get one in white to replace my white Chelsea28 tank. Oh and these tanks are form fitting, soft and a new favorite.

FIVE. Weekly funnies.

Haha, I feel like this sometimes.

Classic.

I get hangry and it isn't fun to be around me when I do.

Yep, I love these kinds of texts from my girlfriends.

YES!

Haha.

Oh geez. It is awful that people are this dumb.

Have a great weekend. I am linking up with A Little Bit of Everything.

    1. They are really good shorts for sure. I love a good bodysuit and can't ever find ones that are for long torsos and these fit the bill. I hope you had a good weekend too!

  2. Those shorts are cute on you. I ordered a pair from Abercrombie that I am anxiously awaiting! I love when someone tells me "I know I am being petty..." or "I need to bitch for a minute." Get the popcorn out and lets chat! LOL. Have a great weekend!

  3. I didn't know you could have Nordstrom Rack ship to the store for free shipping, that is so smart!

  4. I'm so glad you love the shorts! I was skeptical at first when I saw they were high waisted because I'm not a fan of that either, but these are truly amazing, aren't they?! And LOL at that Gwyneth Paltrow meme... I saw that on the news the other day and I was like, why is this even news?! haha.

    1. They are sooo good. I always think high waisted fits funny, but these are not super high waisted. Thank you for the recommendation. I wondered the same thing. It's like getting an award or meme for drinking water.

  7. I have a pair of AE shorts that I absolutely love but since quarantine of course, it won't fit anymore. I need to search for these shorts at Target! Love those funny memes - it gave me a good laugh. Wishing you a fabulous weekend ahead!
