FRIDAY FAVORITES....REAL WORLD EDITION

Happy Friday friends! Another fast week is in the books. It’s looking like a gorgeous day so I will keep this intro short and get right to some of the fun favorites.

1. Boys
Real World Accessory 
So, our boys are really getting a taste of the real world, in fact some of you may know that the two college boys have started an online shopping website together called RealWorld Accessory. They sell cool watches, hats and sunglasses for guys! They are having fun with it but they needed a little boost so I told them I would feature them on the blog! And I had a ball doing a little photo shoot for them the other night. We thought it was cute that they wore their respective college shirts.

Entering the Real World

This youngest of ours isn’t big into social media, but he will soon be entering the real world as he graduates this weekend and will also be heading off to college. Lots of last times for this kid and our family. A couple weeks ago he had his last time on the mound and wearing the number 9.

 And here is a picture of graduation practice with the 459 graduates.

2. Lip Balm 
I am crazy about lip balm! My favorite night balm will still always be Carmex, and I was the queen of Carmex, back when it only came in the little tubs, in school. Right now, my two favorites are the EOS brand and Raw Sugar line.  

The Raw Sugar pineapple and maqui berry + Coconut smells so much like summer.

Sweet Mint has always been my favorite EOS but I recently bought this lavender latte and vanilla at Target and just love it. I love that it’s packaged with one of the little round Balms and the stick.

4. Bubblegum Pink 
I just love bubblegum pink and that color is hard to find! So when I found this cute sleeveless tie front top at JC Penny, I knew it had to be mine and I love it. It comes in lots of other colors as well. I thought it looked really fresh paired with raw hem boyfriend jeans and white pumps.

Wednesday ~ THE DRESS OF THE SUMMER

DELTA DAWN

We did not watch the CMT is on Wednesday night but aa soon as my mom told me Tanya Tucker was on there singing Delta Dawn, I quickly watched it and downloaded the YouTube performance. When I was little girl, Delta Dawn was my favorite song and I used to sing it, sometimes in the grocery store! I would belt it out as loud as I could so this was so much fun to watch.

Pineapple Wallpaper & Katie Kime

I just discovered Katie Kime and I am in love with every single thing on her website. From wallpaper, Home decor, fashion, paper goods, art prints, etc...so bright, so cheery and I LOVE IT ALL!!

 Just look at this Pink Pineapple Wallpaper! I am sure I will be sharing more of her stuff in the future!

THE DRESS OF THE SUMMER

I cannot even tell you how much I LOVE this dress!! It is soooo pretty, the print is my favorite floral ever!! The fit is fabulous, it feels so nice on, just screams summer and will get you compliments everywhere you go!! I thought it was the prefect wedding anniversary dinner dress last Wednesday on our Anni. And even though the dinner was one of the worst we have ever encountered, the dress was the star, only after my beloved Mr. Nine of course! And on the dinner...believe me, Trip Advisor and Yelp got my 1 star, lol!

There’s absolutely nothing I dislike about this dress! I call it the dress of the summer because the colors just make you smile and bring sunshine, tropical vibes and warmth to mind! Eliza J dresses are always so well made and fit so well!

 I don’t know how to describe the material, but it feels so good, and you know I love a good twirl factor and this one has it in spades! I put my pom pom colorful rattan clutch with it and some turquoise earrings but with all these beautiful colors in the print, there are endless styling options!

1. More Cute Tops

2. Hair Accessories/Barettes

I have always loved hair accessories, so I sure am happy to see a resurgence of them lately. I am especially loving barrettes and clips. These pearl and gold ones come in a set of 8 for under $10BUY BARRETTES HERE

3. Clothing Racks                

So many of you asked me about these. I already owned a few of these from another retailer and loved them, so for my recent garage sale, I got two more. They are awesome, they have adjustable height and the bar slides out to make them even longer, holding more clothes. They are such a good price (under $16) and the ones here on Amazon are the BEST.

4. Tagging Gun

Speaking of the garage sale, this tagging gun came in handy for tagging clothes. And it might even be good for returns if I’ve already cut off the tags.

BUY HERE

5. Labels/Tags

These are the tags that go with the tagging gun. They were even great to tape on bigger items and would be fun for little kids to “play store” with. I loved doing that as a kid.

6. Earrings

I am loving all the rattan earrings they have, so light weight and these with the yellow match my fiesta chops perfectly! I also love the set of that my sweet friend Laura from The Horton Family got This cute pack of 4 for under $12!

7. The Cutest Cosmetic Bags

My friend Kellyann, who happens to have a BIRTHDAY today loves flamingos and I found the cutest set of three cosmetic bags.
