1. Banana pudding
We are having Lincoln baptized tomorrow, and afterwards all of our family will be coming over for dinner. I asked my mom to make this banana pudding. You guys, it is so good and seriously one of the easiest things to make EVER. We always serve it up in a trifle dish which is so pretty and it is always a hit. I can't wait to help myself to a serving, or five.
2. Shopbop sale
The Shopbop sale is happening right now! I am dying over this cardigan, how perfect is it!? I love the color, and think tying the front is a fun idea. I am also a sucker for stripes, and think this top is perfect and would work so well throughout fall and winter. My heart is pitter-pattering over the fact that chokers are back in, and I love the layered look of this necklace. And finally, for my working ladies who need to rock the office look, this skirt is awesome and I am loving the bold color! If you spend up to $500, you get to take 25% off your order, and anything over that amount you get to take 30% off!
3. Baby pajamas
As always, I am a sucker for the baby PJs. Old Navy has some AMAZING options right now, and through Sunday cardholders get 40% off! Don't worry, everyone else still gets 30% off. I ordered this pair for Lincoln, and I love this sweet option as well because, hello, mint green. You guys, I have such a problem.
4. Ikea
Okay you guys, I really just have to sing my praises of Ikea. When we were initially planning Jackson's nursery, we decided on the Hemnes dresser in white. We have loved it so much, and when we moved and our master suite was slated to be white, we decided it made the most sense to hijack it for ourselves. And after searching up and down, I was still so loyal that we ended up buying the same dresser in the black/brown option for Lincoln's new nursery. And while making that trip, I also got the matching nightstands for our room because I just couldn't resist.Their stuff is seriously such a good quality, at unbeatable price points. We are planning to make a stop in on our little anniversary day-cation tomorrow, and I seriously cannot wait. If you have ever considered trying ANYTHING form Ikea, you seriously can't go wrong. Just do it. No, this is not sponsored by Ikea. I just love this store THAT MUCH.
5. Cardigans
I am so in love with cardigans this year. They are great for dressing up an outfit, but can also be SO cozy. I am loving the length and style of this one, and am planning to give it a try! I am so impressed by the BP line at Nordstrom, I can't get enough of their stuff! This adorable option is also on mega clearance at Target right now. Yay Target, always swooping in for the win.
And an extra, because this little shindig basically sums up how I feel that it is the weekend!
Happy Friday!

Enjoy your day off with your husband! Those are always the best!

it was such a good day! we ended up running errands haha! but doing that without kids and stopping at five different places without unloading carseats is seriously a HUGE treat!
DeleteEnjoy the time with your husband! It really is hard to leave the kids but I don't ever regret it :)
ReplyDeleteThank you! We went to the mall of America and every time we walked by the fun stuff (like lego land, underwater world, etc.) my husband was like MAN I wish we would have brought Jackson. Oh well, I now have a great excuse to go back ;-)
DeleteI enjoy your blog! How was the hemnes dresser to assemble? I heard it was really hard:(!
ReplyDeleteThank you! I will say, it is not the simplest of tasks. My husband is pretty handy and has assembled all of our Ikea furniture (we have two dressers, two nightstands, and an end table) with relative ease. I would say time consuming, not necessarily difficult. And the end product really is worth it. We are SO happy with the Hemnes stuff!
DeleteCongratulations on the baptism!!

Thanks Darcy! I was in total shock that my baby who HATES getting his head wet didn't make a peep :-)
DeleteOH you lucky lady, enjoy your day off with your hubs today! B and I are probably taking a date day in early November... those are always the best days!
ReplyDeleteThey really are! It feels so exciting to both not be working during the week and just being together!
DeleteThat Target cardigan is perfection! Have fun today!
ReplyDeleteThanks we had a great day :-) And I mean really, can Target ever do wrong? I think not!
