Friday Faves



What the...???

How did it get to be FRIDAY?

I'm missing an entire day!!! 

Sorry about that folks...it doesn't happen very often, but every once in a while the stars all align perfectly against me and the magic just doesn't happen (this time it happened to be two grumpy children and a boss having me work until midnight...). 

Frowny face.

But wait!

I've got some stuff to turn that frown upside down!

First and foremost, Bri from Me, You, and a Wiener never ceases to amaze me and she's done it again with her newest project:


Sheer genius, that one.

She used the latest and greatest DIY phenomenon, O'verlays from Danika over at Gorgeous Shiny Things...now I'm *itching* to get my hands on something, *ANYTHING* to slap these babies on!!! 

This was found on pinterest...how adorable is this for a proposal???


Guys, take notes (c:

This beaut (via The Zhush, via Martha) was The Candy Bar founder Dylan Lauren's bridal shower...


Candy themed...natch...



Gumball garlands and edible jewelry...color me one happy girl!

I think I would just about have died to go to this party. Good thing I didn't know about it (c:

Miss Sarah from A Dose of Pretty just gave her wingback a "dose of pretty"...like she said, you can never have too much La Fiorentina...or David Hicks period (c:


And last but not least, J Crew is insisting on tempting me in to their store to spend money.

It's working. This tee really *is* perfect:


And just in case you were completely out of it and don't check Erin's blog obsessively like I do (did I just admit to that out loud???), here's the most amazing beach house to make you even more jealous of her fabulous life:

You have to check out the outdoor eating space with a view of the ocean.

I could just die happy after living there for a day year...(c:

Happy weekend party people!!!
