FRIDAY FAVORITES...INDY EDITION

I am still coming off a great trip with my mama to Charleston. It was a gift from her for my birthday. I will share all about that fabulous trip and our first visit there next week. Prior to the trip, we had some great fam time in Indy. My favorites today are some great Indianapolis spots and the fun we had.

Bottleworks Hotel

Such a piece of history! This Hotel is the old Coca-Cola bottling company that was the largest Coca-Cola bottling plant in the world! The architecture is stunning, and they have restored as much as possible for one of Indianapolis’s newest and coolest hotels! This whole area is now known as the Bottleworks District, and the entire area is being revitalized. They have everything from a food court called the Garage to a movie theater and they are adding all kinds of restaurants! You may have seen a while back when we went to PINS,

A duckpin bowling and entertainment establishment. We plan on going back to this area this Summer.

Hotel helping me Celebrate all month long, lol

All the doors are Coca Cola Red

Fountain Square

We had only ever really been downtown Indy but on the outskirts, there are some little districts like I told you about the Bottleworks area that are amazing and one of those is Fountain Square! We had tacos at an amazing little Mexican restaurant, shopped some plant stores for the girls, a vinyl record shop, some vintage resale and sat in the middle of the highway on stadium chairs that someone had put there, so unusual.

Cake Bake Shop

As you know, I got lucky enough to go to the Cake Bake Shop with my dear friend Kellyann in February. One of the boys’ girlfriends and I share birthdays two days apart, so she made reservations for us to keep on celebrating on Good Friday. Such a lovely time, wonderful food, fabulous desserts and best of all sweet company and such a gorgeous environment.

My Dress HERE (LOVED IT)

Breakfast-n-Blooms

WOW! The crabapples were in full bloom down there and I was tickled “pink” to see these and snap this pic on our walk to breakfast. This means it won’t be long until they’re in bloom here.

Vionic Shoes

Mr. Nine and I had she fun with our newest Vionic Shoes. They were the perfect pairs for walking around Indy. One of the boy’s girlfriends shot some pics in the Hotel and they turned it so cute! Mr. Nine in his Lucas Sneakers and me in my Thrive Mule. I loved mine so much that I wore them for the recent flights too.

Moving

And a bit of bittersweet involved in this post, these two are moving to Baltimore, Maryland in a few weeks. This girl is going to complete her 2 year Pharmacy residency at Johns Hopkins in Baltimore and our son was lucky enough to get transferred from his Amazon management job to a Baltimore location as well! This was our last hurrah in Indianapolis with us all for a while. Going to miss these kids so much! You know I’ve already been researching things to do in Baltimore, lol!

And a Pic at Check out of course

Have a great weekend friends! Going to get my ferns today. It is going to be 84° here tomorrow but don’t get too excited, back in the 30s next week…. what up Indiana weather?

SOCIAL THREADS GAL

I have loved Social Threads for years, a one-stop shop, or you can get the best brands all in one order. Started by working moms who wanted to make life easier they have so many cute things including their popular vegan message your bags and inner changing straps

Super happy to be a social threads gal or better known as a social threads ambassador to bring you all their cuteness. Today I’m sharing two outfits that I’ve worn lately and while the surroundings in Indiana were OK for these pictures, I’m in a much better place today. Stay tuned to stories on Instagram to see where I am.

It’s especially fun to shop at Social Threads when we have a promo code for you. With all their new arrivals, you are going to want to jump on this. Use code VIP 10 for 10% off your order and just wait until you see how cute everything is.

Like this outfit. I am head to toe Social Threads for my THML Top to the Free People Makai Shorts and even the cute Espadrilles, the Messanger Bag I have is the mini version which I love especially for spring and summer and the Yellow Strap is so pretty. You will just love all the straps they have.

The bag comes in several colors as well.

And take a gander at this DRESS! The reason I say Gander is because the night we took these photos, there were geese and geese poop everywhere! Lol but my goodness this pink Paisley THML dress is such a winner! Add in a perfect Hat and you’re ready for spring summer and any warm weather vacation!

TheSun Hat has the SPF 50 built in and you know being a skin cancer survivor, I love that!

Again, The Messenger bag is great with it AND Look, even my little Miss STELLA donned a matching Jean Jacket and joined me in this photo. I love that this dress looks so cute with one.

Go get shopping at Social Threads, you won’t be sorry it was one of my favorites before I even started promoting them and you’ll see why.

Don’t forget code:

VIP 10!

HAVE the BEST DAY BABES
