FRIDAY FAVORITES...PEARLS PLEASE

Whew, well, this week was a little better than last. January is a flying by just like I knew it would. Here’s to a sweet weekend and as always, all the Friday Favorite goodness!!

1. Pearls Please

Beautiful, classy jewelry is so much my love language! It’s never too early to start thinking about Valentine’s Day and I bet you’ll be hard to find a lady who doesn’t love Gorgeous Pearl Necklaces! Pearls are timeless! I remember one of the first gifts Mr. Nine got me was a black pearl necklace and I still love it to this day! This company specializes in delicate, beautiful pieces and you’ll be sure to find amazing gifts and great pieces for yourself with pearls, beautiful metals and other gems. This Simple Pearl Necklace is a favorite of mine.

Hint to Mr. Nine, wink wink!

2. And More Pearls

HEADBANDS

Well, speaking of pearls, I was so happy to find this set a beautiful velvet and Pearl Headbands at such a great price! While I am not a fan of that knot type Headbands there’s something about the beauty of these that drew me in!

Here I am wearing both the black and the pink..

I LOVE THEM!!

DRESS

And so much love for this Gray Wrap Pearl Dress! I just think it is gorgeous and looks so soft! Now if I only had someplace to wear it, LOL!

Remember this beautiful PEARL CLUTCH of mine? So many compliments and it’s still available on MAJOR SALE $19.99!!! And Original Post HERE.

FRIDAY FAVORITES...I LOVE COFFEE EDITION

Ok friends, my Favorite time of the year and the yucky weeks keep on coming, I continue to be wrongly blocked on Insta, but.....this week,

They are gracing my garage because tomorrow is pumpkin porch decorating day and I cannot wait to share it with you soon! Now, while you read this I’ll be grabbing some yummy coffee. I hope you enjoy this coffee edition of Friday Favorites!

Coffee Lovers Rejoice. There is nothing like a good cup of Coffee, especially in the cooler months. I absolutely love giving Coffee as Gifts. Adda Coffee House has the perfect gifts for the

2. Family Dinner and Skip-Bo

We sure did luck out and got to have a family dinner on Friday night minus one. Been missing these kids so much so it was great to have laughs at quality time together. We had a great dinner where I made a chicken crescent ring, Mexican roasted corn with Cotija cheese, loaded baked potato salad and for dessert we had Reese’s brownies and my cherry delight, of which half I made with a peach topping.

Some serious rounds of Skip-Bo went down as well!

FRIDAY FAVORITES.....BEAUTY OF SUMMER

The beauty of summer is everywhere! And while my favorite season is Fall, I am enjoying soaking up what summer has to offer! This has been a difficult week, Mr. Nine was traveling and thank goodness is finally home, because things just go wrong when he is gone and because a dear friend of ours passed away, I always called him my favorite dad of all our kid’s friends! He never met a stranger and had the kindest soul!! Pray for his family and prayers for another family who, we just found out, had a very tragic loss. Hold your loved ones a little tighter!

1. New Gold Necklace..On Trend!

Talk about Beautiful! I am absolutely crazy about these Dainty and Darling Gold Necklaces! I was first introduced to this sweet jewelry company, Aurate, a couple years ago and I have loved their beautiful, affordable and feminine jewelry ever since! Their necklaces are probably my favorite! A big trend right now is the gold chain links and the small ones the encompass this one are so sweet and special! I love the uniqueness that the square pendant gave to it. I think I may get the Solid Square Necklace and the Mini Medaillion Necklace to layer with it as well!

Small Square Pendant

Their Packaging is always so beautiful too!

2. Finally...The Campus Grad Pics

We finally did what we’ve been waiting to do for months, and that was go to our two graduated college boy’s campuses for pictures by all the iconic spots! It was a very hot day, but a very productive one and I even came home with a hotdog suit that a girl had left behind at a party. Don’t worry, I disinfected it well and washed on delicate so the condiments on it wouldn’t come off, LOL!

EXTRA SPECIAL for IU because they celebrated their
Bicentennial...200 Years!

The Iconic Sample Gates

The Famous Bell Tower

3. My Nordstrom Wishlist

There is no way I am slamming the Nordstrom sale in your face like a lot of bloggers do, but I always have a few favorites and I will be sharing those, here is my most wanted wish list of the #Nsale. You can add this stuff to your wishlists and then when it is your time to shop, you can just add to cart.

FLOWERS
Something else that has been a saving grace during all this are my beautiful flowers! Tending to them has given me something to do and brought immense joy. And the first pot is of the coveted bubblegum petunias that I have all over the place. This pot has just for bubblegum plants in it but look how huge it’s gotten.

You may have seen me talk about these as well, this is the first time I’ve ever had Elephant Ear plants and can I just say, our whole family is in love with these tropical beauties! The palms are huge!
