Friday Favorites #38

Hi everyone! Happy Friday! I know itā€™s only mid-April but I am so ready for summer. Over the past few weeks, Iā€™ve gotten to enjoy sunshine, 70 degrees, and all the clear skies. I even have indulged in ice cream on a few nights too. I know itā€™s not here to last, but I am soaking up as much as I can. Iā€™m currently working on this post outside and itā€™s such a tease for summer.

Beautiful spring weather!

It was so hard to narrow down todayā€™s Friday Favorites because I had so many things on my mind. But I think this is a good mix of things to read, watch and enjoy this week. Hereā€™s this weekā€™s edition of Friday Favorites as I link up with ErikaĀ andĀ Andrea!

The Best Years of Your LifeThis book started out slow, but once it picked up, I couldnā€™t put it down. Itā€™s told by the three main characters, a married couple and their college-aged daughter. Each character is going through different trials and tribulations and has their own secrets that they are dealing with. You can find themes of drama, relationships, family, honesty and integrity. Itā€™s one of those books that will stick with you after you finish it. Another bonus is that the author is from my community-such a small world!

Simplified Spring Launch!-Emily Ley and her team at Simplified revealed their products and covers last week and they went on sale on Wednesday! All I can say is wow! What a collection! Their academic planners go on sale in the spring and their yearly planners go on sale in the fall. Iā€™m a yearly girl, so I will buy my plannerĀ in the fall, but I already have my eyes on some new products too! If you like organization and desk and office supplies, you have to see what they have in stock. This is my pick for this year!

The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel Season 5– The new and final season of the Marvelous Mrs. Maisel returned last Friday! So far, a handful of episodes are available. I am really into the season and i donā€™t want it to end. There was a lot of shock after the first episode, you can read about it here if you want to learn more, but be warned, the article contains spoilers! I always look forward to Fridays when the new episodes drop and I canā€™t wait to see how everything wraps up.Ā 

James Corden and the Kardashians– If you are a fan of the Late Night Show with James Corden or the Kardashianā€™s, you have to check out this video. Corden fills in as their assistants for the day and the end result is too funny! This is guaranteed a laugh for you.

New Library Books– After reading some great books, I couldnā€™t wait to head to the library for some new reads and my recent haul didnā€™t disappoint. I picked up a mix of rom-com, drama, and some that have been on my read list for a while. I canā€™t wait to share some reviews soon!

Well there you have it, thatā€™s a look into what I have been loving this week. I hope you found something that you can love too! I hope you have a wonderful weekend filled with sushine and spring fun!

Look of the Day #68

LOTD

Itā€™s September!!

Donā€™t get me wrong, I LOVE summer but once September hits, I canā€™t wait for fall. The only problem with that is even though itā€™s September, itā€™s still super warm where I live. Although, I want to break out all the flannels, jeans, and boots, its still 80 degrees outside. Haha! Therefore, I am still wearing shorts, t-shirts and summer styles of clothing for the next few weeks but donā€™t worry-my white is put away until next year. Haha!

With that being said, here is what I am wearing today.

Getting in all the summer outfits

I got this fun silk-like blouse from Old Navy a few years ago and I love to wear it with shorts (black or white), capris, or even a pair of jeans in cooler weather.

Since it reached mid-80ā€™s today, I decided to wear a pair of black shorts from Old Navy with it. I chose black to darken the outfit a bit since we are getting closer to fall weather and moving away from summer weather.

There was a bit of a chill this morning, so I wore this fuchsia sweater over this spaghetti strap top. The pink sweater also brought out the pink accents in my top. Don’t be surprised but I also got this sweater from Old Navy...shocker right?! Haha!

To continue to transition this outfit to fall, I decided to wear these fun dressy sneakers with my outfit rather than a pair of sandals. I got mine for sale at Target.

Although the weather is still so nice, and I am trying to enjoy it as much as I can, I still try to try to transition my wardrobe. I transition in simple ways like by wearing darker colors, closed toe shoes, or adding sweaters or long sleeves or pants to my wardrobe.

I canā€™t wait for fall to be in full swing.

When do you start to transition your wardrobe from season to season?
