Friday Favs: Valentines Frocks


HIS N HERS

It's Friday!!! Valentines Day is getting close, so for today's Friday favorites I decided to do something different. Husband and I each picked out some virtual date night frock ideas. He had a little guidance from me, but I think he did pretty darn good! However, I found it interesting that he didn't include pants....

P.S. I've been smitten with that sequined blazer from JCrew forever! It's on sale right now!!!

His
Pierrepont Hicks Tie / Love You Cuff Links / H&M Knitt Jumper / Alden Burgundy Wing tip \ Brixton Fedora / H&M Messenger Bag

Hers
Dashing Diva Chinatown Nail polish / Peaces of Indigo Heart ring / JCrew sequined blazer / Philosophy di Alberta Ferretti pleated dress / Ydeltuyt bow earrings /
Anya Hindmarch glitter clutch / Jimmy Choo suede heels

Valentines Wishes

Sparkly hearts for your shoes! Perfect for a Valentines date


I heart this pillow!



Love letters envelope necklace - I'd love to get one of these! (pssst husband)


Wouldn't this couples poster be a uber-cute gift?


What do you do for Valentines Day? Fancy dinner? Order in and cozy up by the fire? Romantic movie and treats?

When I was little my mom would distract us while my dad went out and put gifts on the doorstep for us. Then he'd ring the doorbell and run to be back inside. My mom would tell us that we must all have secret admirers! We do this now in our house. It's fun to see the look of glee on my kids faces and I must admit that I still love having a secret admirer too;)

This is my Valentines wishlist of things I'd love to get and some things I might just give!

This Wedding Dress



I can't get over how gorgeous this bride is!!! That dress from Temperley is so, so beautiful and ethereal. Don't you think?

Check out the rest of this stunning wedding here.

Mommy Make-up

As a mom I feel lucky if I get to shower let alone put make-up on. However, ALL us girls sometimes just need a quick throw-it-on face so that we look somewhat presentable as we're running somewhere. So here is my 5 minute face:

1. Boots No 7 - both a moisturizer and light foundation to even out skin. LOVE this stuff!
2. Cover Girl concealer to cover up my lack of sleep. This one's not drying.
3. Tarte Cheek Stain is by far the favorite thing I use. It brightens up your face and 1 bottle will last you forever!

4. A nice neutral eyeshadow looks good on anyone. I like a little shimmer and this Lorac trio is awesome!

5. This Rimmel eyeliner is my 2nd fav product. It darkens your eye, but also leaves a hint of shimmer. In a huge hurry, I use this without shadow.


6. Lash Blast mascara - I used to go for the pricey stuff, but I used this on a whim and it stuck!

7. I had this Dr. Pepper lip gloss when I was 7 years old, so it's nostalgia that makes me keep buying it, but it also has a hint of red that is pretty


8. Last, but not least I love my Tokyomilk. I pack the Sugar, Sugar solid perfume in my bag so I always smell yummy!


There you have it. Pretty simple and quick!

A Royal Wedding

I cannot get over how adorable is this royal wedding play set from ELC. I'm not even British, but I want one (or two)!
