Let's catch up shall we? I really do believe we need another day after Sunday to prepare for the week ahead. I usually stay home on Sundays and try to prepare but none of the sort happened yesterday. Saturday was an errand day followed by a night out with friends. I spent Sunday as a date day. B and I went to the movies, did a little shopping and finished the day with dinner. It's hard to find a guy that will put up with my shopping habits, but I think he manages it quite well.

So here are a few of my favorite purchases from the weekend. Is it just me or do you like to have something new each week too? lol  Whether it's something like a new concealer or a necklace - something cheap or expensive - etc - I can't help myself.

So the shirt and necklaces are from Forever21, flats from Nine West, skinnies from Target and 10k gold pearls and Essie nail polish in Topless and Barefoot from Walmart.

I am a huge fan of bargain shopping and combined with coupons, gift cards and store deals - I got all of the below for about $100! I'm in LOVE.

I have a lot of black furniture in my house so I wanted to keep it consistent with the frame color. I'm not quite sure just yet where I will put this pretty little piece but I have a couple more things that I'd like to DIY too! I think DIY piece #1 was a success! What do you think?


Have a great week! xoxo Jessica

Oh, hey there Friday! Who else is with me when I say thank goodness! This has been one of those weeks and I never thought today would come! But alas, the weekend is here and with good intentions. I've got a jammed packed little weekend ahead and I couldn't be happier. 

I really need to start blogging more. It's been over a month since I last posted. I know, I know, I need to get it under control.

Anywho, here's a little update on me. The house is coming along but has been put on a hault as I have recently been given an opportunity to advance in my company. Hopefully with said advancement comes increased pay and then I can look for a place closer to work. (The houses are a bit more money) So fingers crossed that this works out and I can start looking for something new.

As for the last month, I took some time off and went on a cruise which was probably the best thing I could of done. I really needed some time away. B and I enjoyed ourselves and met some great people! Don't you just love when you connect with strangers? Ha! In the end, we exchanged contact info and I am excited to have new friends in different states!

So Spring has sprung in these parts and I am really craving some color in my wardrobe. You all know how much I love cream, gold and black. I find it hard to stray from those colors because I love them so much. With that said here are a few lovely pieces that I am DROOLING over and would love to incorporate some of this into my current wardrobe.

I am really loving the colored pants and jeans right now - although I don't have any! I think I will be in search of some colored bottoms soon because these are just gorg.
