FRIDAY FAVORITES....SHOES EDITION

Hello friends and crap, I just realized, you know what we lose this weekend? An hour worth of sleep! How did the dreaded Spring Forward creep up on us already? The bright side is: lighter in the evening and if we screw up next week, we all have a good excuse: Mother Nature and Old Father Time, messed with our internal clocks! Now let’s get to a “Sole” fun Friday Favorites with a Shoes Edition.

1. Sweeter than a Pineapple
Talk about the sweetest spread of pineapple love and joy! A couple weeks ago I showed you these Darling Sparkly Pineapple Shoes that one of my dearest Bloggy BFF’s, the beautiful Kellyann from This Blonde's Shopping Bag had sent me a picture of. I loved them so much but was having no luck finding them so this sweetheart went on a mission and scored them in my size and sent them to me as an early birthday gift. Talk about a heart of gold. Kellyann is always thinking of others and her compassionate heart lifted mine when I needed it most. Another utterly beautiful and talented pal (This girl can cook AND keep you in line with the law), Missy from My Shitty Kitchen, also scored a pair for me not knowing Kellyann had already found a pair. Missy and I concocted a plan for her to exchange for the size that fit our sweets Amanda from CCK Blog as she is a pineapple lover just like me, not to mention one of my favs who I refer to as my lil sis. I always wanted a sister. Missy and Kellyann were able to spread immeasurable joy because it wasn’t just the fun of being able to sport these darling shoes this summer, it’s the thought of people who I’ve never met face to face would take time to look for and purchase something they knew would bring happiness. Now that is unconditional friendship and it’s what continues to motivate me and remind me there is so much love out there spread across the miles and smiles even if it is not always in your own backyard. 

These ladies all stand tall, beautiful and sweet...just like a pineapple and I’m soooo lucky to call these ladies friends. Blessed is what it is!

2. SHOES
So, starting to think about shoe needs for Spring and summer. Two pairs I knew I wanted was another pair of casual clip ons and some chunky espadrilles. And then I saw the knot slides and at such a great price,  was like "yeah, these too!" These three recent purchases have me super geared up for warmer weather!

These Shoes 
I cannot even begin to express my love for these Sperry slip ons. The perforation is refreshing and the platinum color goes with everything and wait for it…the insoles are Memory Foam!!! Like clouds….In LOVE

And THESE
These Marc Fisher Annie (Which my husband often calls me) Espadrilles have my heart and feet very happy. LOVE the blush suede.

AND These Knot Slide Sandals
Aren’t these darling! I love an easy slip on shoe and the fact that they are a soft satin is even better. Under $25! Way cheaper than the Kate Spade Indi Slides.

5. Misc. Fun

Zevia Cream Soda 

I have never been a pop/soda drinker at all. I’ll have an occasional vanilla or cherry coke with popcorn or pizza but we are only talking once or twice a year. I’m a water girl. However, cream soda has always been a favorite flavor and with my parents being from father south, we always would stock up on red cream soda. I saw this all-natural sweetened Zevia (with Stevia) on sale and after reading about it on several sites and the cream soda being a favorite, I decided to give it a try…it is delicious, refreshing and not as sweet as the loaded sugary stuff. 

BUY HERE and you can find these at Target and Wal-Mart and some grocery stores.

This Meme

My favorite Spring Forward Meme, with yet even more snow on the ground here, yep, so true! My mom and one of our sons are both in Florida so at least some of us are wearing sandals, lol! 

May this weekend  SPRING into greatness for you pretties!!
