Outfit: Peplum

Are you tired of hearing about Wish? Good. Because I'm not done showing you what I bought while I was there. 

Well, I bought this peplum top there. And it's my new fav. Love the color. Love the cut. Love that it makes me look like I have something resembling a waste. Love everything about it.

I hope you have a very happy Tuesday!!

Happy Tuesday, Friends!

Sorry for the lack of a good picture...busy day. But this is what I wore yesterday...

So comfortable. So bright. I love it. And that cute Anthro coffee cup is a cute accessory! (Thanks, Kimmie!)

Also, how awesome has Princess Kate looked during all this Diamond Jubilee celebration?! Gorgeous!

 

Have a very happy day!

Thankful: Friends

This week there are some people that I'm thankful for...

1. Great bosses...

My boss put this on my desk today as a reminder not to give up on a crazy day...it's a flying pig!

Previous boss...and the other assistants he's had. We just all happened to be there that day. And we all loved working there!

2. I tell people all the time that I am blessed with the greatest friends a girl could have. In no way does this list even begin to sum it up, but there are a few in particular that I am thankful for this week.

DeAnna. love. her. She just had twin girls and I can't wait to see them soon!! She was an answer to prayer for me a few years ago and I think we'll be great friends forever!

Michelle. She used to live right across the street from me and I miss her every day now that she lives in another city. She's amazing.

Liss and Kimmie. If you've known me for half a second, you know I love these 2 women. We've been friends since we were 10 and we are still BFFs. I love them more than I could express!

Have a happy and thankful Friday!

Outfit Tuesday: Headband

Remember the Saturday episode when I talked about the things and people I love? Well, this is the headband that I am wearing in that post. Except this time, I wore it differently.

I really like my headband. When I wore it to work one day, someone asked me if it was from Anthropologie! It certainly is that cute and cool, but it's only $10 and the proceeds go to help bring home Baby Roberts!

say hi to my rosemary plant.

So here's the deal...if you want one for you, or for a friend, or for a child/baby girl, head over to Kimmie's blog and order one!  I had mine custom made for me by Kimmie and it is perfect!

Totally Worth It

Hello, again. It's been a while.

So, I am one of those.

I definitely got up in time to watch the Royal Wedding live, not for all the pre-wedding coverage, just the wedding itself. I was up in time to see this:

Cate looked absolutely perfect. And so did Pippa, I think.

I love this shot:

I mean, I do not know these people, but they seem to really love each other and I like that.

Adorable:

I read that Cate took lessons from a make up artist in London and did her OWN makeup for the wedding. I did some of mine, but I'm glad I had my sweet bf, Kimmie, to help with makeup and hair! I cannot imagine doing my own before, oh, about 2 billion people watch me get married. Good for you, Cate!

So I may or may not have been made fun of a little bit for waking up for it, but I am so happy I did. My grandmother is British and I have always been fascinated by the royals. It was a great wedding and processional. I hope they are happy together! And honestly, we should pray for them because their ceremony was remarkably Christian. Maybe one day they will really believe it in their hearts. What a change that would be for England!

Vote for Kimmie!!

This is my friend, Kimmie:



She is one of my heroes! Seriously.

She has overcome so much in her only 27 years and she is such a solid believer in Jesus.

She has entered a contest to win a trip to Hawaii and she really deserves to win. But, I bet you're like me and you're thinking, why should I vote for this girl that I don't even know and help her win a trip to Hawaii. Well, let me share with you some reasons:

1. She has survived 2 brain surgeries. She thought she could never have a baby and she DID!
2. She completed P90X after having her baby and looks AMAZING
3. She and her husband didn't get a honeymoon so winning a trip to Hawaii would be awesome
4. She loves Jesus
5. She's hilarious. Just check out her blog.
6. Because if you like me at all, then you'll love Kimmie and she could use your vote!!

We have til Friday to get her to number one so please vote every day on every computer you can. Don't forget to verify the vote after you click the vote button. I'll update her link every day so you can find her directly.


Please please please do this for Kimmie, William, and bebe Willow! :)
