Birthday Week

Guess what?? It's my birthday week! I LOVE celebrating birthdays even if mine is in the middle of the week this year (June 26th)!! I told you June is a big month for us :)

I want you to get to know the girl behind the blog a little better this week starting with Sunday Social.

Before I get to that, I wanted to say that I got to celebrate my best friend Denise's wedding this past weekend. It was a blast. It was a perfect day for a wedding and she seriously looked like she was right out of a magazine. I can't wait to share more with you but I wanted to give you a sneak peek. Until then, check out the ziplining adventure we went on for the bachelorette party.

Here are this weeks questions:

What is your favorite store to shop at? Can we only choose one?? Haha, yeah right! Um...Target for sure, Gap, Forever 21 and Loft :)

If you could afford anything and everything, which designer brand would you covet? Kate Spade

Must have closet staple? Cardigans. I am the cardigan queen!! Especially because it makes a lot of my wardrobe work friendly. And obviously anything teal is a staple in my wardrobe!

Favorite kind of shoes? (brand or type) My favorite pair of shoes that I own are leopard flats from Target but overall I ADORE cowgirl boots!

source unknown/source

Best clothing deal you’ve ever gotten? (sale or amazing find) I used to work at a J.Crew clearance store (not a factory outlet) and got major discounts. I got my favorite black peacoat for $25!!

Style you’d love to try? maybe Vintage or more romantic and feminine??

Here are some Pinterest looks that I love...get in my closet!!

Have you ever won a giveaway? Well Myranda has and she happened to win a Custom Mood Board from me! If you want one of your own, you can purchase it {here} for $25!!!  Or you can try to win your own in my giveaway going on right now!!

I have never done a mood board for a child's room so this was a fun new experience. Myranda has 3 daughters at ages 5, 3 and 1. She wanted a fun space with lots of pink and she loves owls :)


My inspiration from Myranda's Pinterest board of course:

Cheesecake, Cruises, and Coffee Beans

Well, this week sure has been an interesting one. Where do I start?? Well, I'm gonna do a Hi Five for Friday (too bad I don't have instagram...working on getting that smartphone though-still would love your opinions on which one I should get AND why)

Before I get started, I am going to say what EVERYONE else has already said. Ready? Google is getting rid of Google reader and then probably GFC to follow. So, what does this mean for you? That you should follow me on Bloglovin'. I have actually been using it for a while. I love organizing the blogs I read into categories, but the number of unreads can be very overwhelming sometimes.

• My friend Olivia came to Richmond along with her mom and 2 other friends. One of which was a best friend from high school who I haven't seen in years :) (love you doublemint twin). We went to the Cheesecake Factory..YUM I got the Reeses Peanut Butter Chocolate Cake Cheesecake (are you drooling yet?) to split with Tim.

(this is the one I had) source

• I was featured AGAIN over at Coffee Beans and Bobby Pins! She showed off the mood board I made for Sara. So thankful for you ladies.

• I got to chat with Veronica again...I just love that girl (in a non-creepy girl crush way haha) and we are "planning" a couple's cruise for next summer! Who knows, we might actually get to MEET like in real life!

(promise I will post about our honeymoon soon)

• I got some new stuff from Old Navy last weekend. It has been so nice to have some new outfits to put together this week. Maybe I will take a picture of one for you?

• It's starting to feel like SPRING! But then it's gonna be cold again on Sunday. Oh well, I'll take my few days of no jackets, scarves, etc. Aren't you loving all of this daylight?

I hope you have a fabulous weekend celebrating St. Patrick's Day!
