Happy Friday!  These are a few of my favorites right now.

David bought me an orchid.  We have this running joke about him never buying me flowers… it stems all the way back to our first few dates.  I love orchids but I killed the last one he bought me.  Here’s to hoping this guy sticks around a little longer than the last.

I think I’m gonna give this to my girls.  Such a valuable life lesson… because it applies to every aspect of life.

Pinky shared this article yesterday: 45 Life Lessons Written by a 90-Year-Old Woman.  Seriously, good stuff in there.

Who’s watching The Bachelor?  I watch every season – it’s fun to have something to look forward to on Mondays and talk about with friends/coworkers.  But the primary reason I watch is to laugh.  I mean, lezzzbehonest, these people are cray cray.  But they’re entertaining!

This recap makes me laugh all over again.

I’ve been looking for a gingham shirt ever since Megan wore hers to my house back in the fall.  Finally found an affordable {at Forever21} and ordered it.  It got delivered this week and I can’t wait to wear it.

Speaking of that gingham shirt, here’s some Pins that I’m using for inspiration.

And obviously this one’s my favorite because I can wear it with my faux fur vest!

{weekend plans}

I love it when friends and family come to visit.  This weekend, my cousin Ryan is coming to town along with Kaitlyn and Andre.  I’m so excited for some cousin time!

I’m also really excited for next week because I’m co-hosting The Creative Closet linkup with Jana and Maegan for A Pop of Color.  You should join in the fun!

What are your favorites?
