Friday Favorites - June 29

It's finally the weekend! Since July fourth falls on a Wednesday this year I guess either this weekend or the next can be considered "fourth of July weekend"... Either way it's going to be a hot one so make sure to keep yourself cool!

Here are my Friday favorites of the week :)

Nautical

Remember ages ago when AOL instant messenger was the best thing in the world? Well I do and I remember that I had an excess (that's being nice) amount of screenames... I think I must have made a new one every week. During my obsession with nautical clothing and accessories I created a screename along the lines of nauticalgirl. Clearly I thought I was super cool...

It seems that nautical clothes are reappearing. I was in J.Crew today and they had soo many (adorable) articles of clothing with anchors.

Here are some items from J.Crew and a few other places:

Hope everybody had a great start to the week!

Hint of Mint

Colored pieces such as neons and pastels are definitely popular this spring and summer. One of my favorite shades for clothes right now is mint, it's a great color, light but fun. 

Here are some mint items to add a pop of color to your wardrobe:

Happy weekend! What a long week... 

This will be the first weekend in the past month that I will not be attending a graduation! As much as I love supporting my friends and family, I am looking forward to having a relaxing weekend. (well sort of, dentist appointment and babysitting are relaxing, right?)

Here are my favorite items of the week:

Summer Changes and Goals


Being on vacation from school during the summer makes for a great time to do things that you cannot usually find the time to do. It is the perfect time to reinvent yourself in ways you've been thinking about, no matter how big or small the change is.

Yesterday, my family sat down together to discus our goals for the summer. It was really helpful to get my thoughts on track. 

Starting today I am only eating raw food for hopefully the next three weeks. We'll see if I can actually do it. During the school year I fall into horrible eating patterns, eating food that I know I should avoid and eating at all hours of the night. Since I've been home for the summer, I keep telling myself that I'm going to be healthier but it is to no avail. I still find myself eating the same junk (if not worse) and staying up eating late into the night. I'm hoping that by giving myself a definitive goal, I'll be able to stay motivated and stick with it.

Another change that I'm hoping to make is to stop buying clothes that I definitely do not need. My beau likes to joke around and tell me that my thought process when I see something cute is: "it's so cute!...I must buy it!" Although he is only teasing me when he says this, I'm starting to think it's partially true... I need to stop spending my money on cute clothes! 

What are y'all going to be working on this summer? Have you sat down and set goals for yourself?

Pink and Navy

Pink and navy compliment each other so well. Together they create my favorite color combination. Considering a majority of my clothes are of pink and navy shades, I wear this combination quite frequently.

Here are some cute sets of pink and navy clothes that I love:

This set features a pink Tibi dress paired with a Top Shop navy blazer. Shoes are the always classic Jack Rogers gold navajos and the bag is a Rebecca Minkoff pink clutch

Hope everybody has a great weekend!

Dogs

While it might be true that dogs are a mans best friend, dogs are definitely a ladies best accessory.  

I'm not just talking about purse dogs, either. My dog, Daisy, weighs over 60 pounds... definitely not a purse dog! If you know me, you know that I love Daisy more than anything... I would take her everywhere with me if I could.

Daisy May


If you really want to attract attention to yourself and your furry friend, puppies always make hearts melt. Just look at these adorable puppies.





I want one! Nothing would make me happier than an adorable puppy wearing a pink bow!

What about y'all? Do you love dogs and puppies as much as I do?

Clothes for Beaus

As much as I love shopping for myself, I have way too much fun shopping for clothes for my boyfriend. Possibly more than shopping for myself (a scary thought).

I'll see something cute and be so tempted to buy it!

Here are some clothes for beaus that I'm loving:

The always classic Vineyard Vines Shep Shirt


This Vineyard Vines Beach Break Whale Shirt




J.Crew Stanton Short


Brooks Brothers navy and pink Bow Tie


Of course all of these items are perfect Father's Day gift ideas for the most important man in any girls life, her daddy :)
