ON CLOUD WINE, WUW & TBB FREESTYLE LINK-UP

As you know I with the last name of Nine, Living on Cloud Nine was the obvious blog name choice. I’ll never forget when sweet Shelly sent me a set of gorgeous stemless wine glasses with the words “On Cloud Wine!” Then, a few weeks ago, another Blended Blog sista, Foxy Sarah sent me a darling sweatshirt she made just for me. So in love with this slouchy off the shoulder cuteness. For this post, I was excited to add in a lacy red bralette and my Target Gingham headband. And I am wearing my FAVORITE Capri Leggings of all time from Express. I was going to wear this on vacation but the nights actually never got cool enough. I like how this has a bit of a rockabilly vibe to it. It's a What's UP Wednesday too so linking with Shay and crew too!

FRIDAY FAVORITES...GINGHAM EDITION


I hear ye dub this the week the week of gingham and royalty. LOL. With my Post on Monday, I shared my 9 Favorite Royal Wedding moments and I have never tired of the coverage all week! Magical! And it appears I cannot stop the Gingham train anytime soon, lol. This weekend, to me, is the official start of summer. We plan to have a family cookout on Monday and an inaugural outdoor fire. I'll probably make another batch of the Strawberry Banana Cheesecake Salad I shared this week.
I hope you enjoy some extra sweetness and summertime vibes this weekend. 

1. Blogger Spotlight:
Food and Lifestyle Blogger: Missy Quigley  
Friends, you are looking at one talented NOLA lady here. If she ever quits her day job, as a LAWYER, she has a backup as a CHEF with her amazing recipes. The majority of which are full of healthily ingredients. The title of Missy’s Lifestyle/Food Blog cracks me up: My Shitty Kitchen. There’s nothing crappy about it, she’s just a hoot and a half too. She is an amazing aunt and has nicknamed her handsome beau for us as Gentleman Caller. This girl gives back to the community, her alma mater, has fun and when you read her recipes, your mouth waters with the anticipation of her flavor combos. I know you’ll love her as much as I do so make sure you check out her BLOG . AND wish her a Happy Birthday as it’s a party for Miss Missy this weekend as she celebrates her special day. 


2. Gingham Pool Slides
Enter these darling Steve Madden pool slides. Since when did slide sandals become named “pool slides?” Lol. Well, since our pool is still not complete due to the [explanative, explanative] concrete guy, I’m just gonna say my Gingham Slides! Hey that’d be a cool new dance…”The Gingham Slide!” LOL

3. Week's Attire
Kate Spade top HERE, Amazon Shoes Similar Here

4. Gingham Top
Every time I wear this top, Mr. Nine says “I like your Gingham!” So, I’ve been wearing it a lot. Ha! I got it at Walmart 5 years ago and the roll up sleeves with tinier contrasting Gingham has me still loving it to pieces.

I know Monday is Memorial Day for those of us in the States but come back Monday to see the FAB 40's Blog Hop I am a guest of this month. The theme is Fairytales from this month's leader Suzy Turner of
The Fab 40's and it's sure to be magical and fun. I went for a modern day Cinderella....can't wait to show you the photos and the outfit!!

THESE COOKIES 
These were samples at our local supermarket. I often get this Asturi brand of Bruschetta toasts that are delicious so I knew the cookies would be great, They are so tiny and cute and I love the hit of almond flavoring. I never used to take the samples but the old ladies like to chat so now I do...I may be THAT old lady someday ya know!
