The Friday Five

Hey, hey and Happy Friday! The weekend is near and I’m in awe that it’s the last weekend of the month already. I’m excited to be getting back to our regular Friday routine where I can share a little of this and a little of that with you friends! Welcome back to The Friday Five!

THE FRIDAY FIVE

ONE // PUFF SHOULDER JACKET [ON MAJOR SALE!] 

ICYMI I celebrated my 37th Birthday last week and shared a recap of my birthday celebrations here! Several questions came in about my puff shoulder leather jacket I wore out to dinner with my parents and to my surprise, it is still in stock and more than 60% off! I purchased it before the holidays in 2020 so was pretty positive I was going to have to start hunting down similar options since I thought it would be sold out.

Here it is during my try-on after I first got it.

I love the feminine, edgy vibe of this jacket and that is a little dressier than some of my other ones due to the structured, puff shoulder. It has a button front instead of a zipper and its very soft.

I’m in an XS and have plenty of room to layer it over a variety of my tops. The jacket was $128 and is now $45!

Grab it before it’s gone 🙂

TWO // THE BOX FOX

My sister couldn’t be here to celebrate with me this year, but she sent me the cutest package! She ordered the birthday BOXFOX and it was perfect! It’s a sleek, ready to ship box with several goodies inside. It comes with a card and some pretty fabulous gifts!

BOXFOX Ready to Ship is a collection of carefully curated, thematic gift boxes by our team of experts. Whether it’s for a birthday, big day or just because, we scour far and wide for the best products so that each gift tells a story and lets you gift with intention — a little thing we like to call the FOX Factor.

The mini crisp champagne Voluspa candle is a treat!

I also love the Pamper & Housewarming boxes. There’s something for a bride, bridesmaid, new mom, new baby + other themes like coffee, happy hour & pasta. 

Such a great gift to send!!

THREE // DREAMY BATHROOM DESIGN

After wrapping up the Dining Room project at the beginning of the month, I’m narrowing down my options for the next project in our new house. We’ve been here almost 8 months and while we’ve knocked out 3 major spaces, there are still many, many more to go! There is no rush to get the work done, but there is no great feeling than when you make a house a home, but putting your own personal touch on things.

I came across this bathroom design on Instagram a few days ago and it stopped me in my tracks. The pendant lights, the black tile, the floor tile that runs all the way up the shower walls. Pretty much every aspect in here is what my bathroom dreams are made of.

We have 4 bathrooms to tackle along the way, so I’m tucking these ideas away for future projects. 

Stay tuned for when I announce what the next one will be! See all of my past Room Reveals here.

There are quite a few ideas in my Saved tab on IG [such a great feature!] and many more on Pinterest.

FOUR // AMAZON OUTDOOR FINDS + PLANTERS FOR SPRING

Its just about that time! Anyone else itching to start decorating for Spring?! Spring Fever usually hits around the beginning of March for me, so I thought I would share a few popular posts to help you get your outdoor spruced up for the season.

Porch Planters from Amazon

Amazon is always a great place to find affordable pieces in a variety of décor styles. Speaking of affordable pieces, I’ve been eyeing this patio furniture set & these chairs as potential options for our outdoor fireplace area.

How pretty is that wicker set?! And I can’t believe the price!

I’m not sure what we’ll end up, but I’ve heard rave reviews about those chairs. I always thought 4 big swivel club chairs would be nice to have in front of the fireplace.

FIVE // NEW LOOK: I’M GIVING CURTAIN BANGS A TRIAL RUN 😉

I was due for a cut & color yesterday and decided to add some curtain bangs for fun. They’re not as short as traditional bangs, but shorter than normal layers around my face would be. If I like them, I might even add more next time! I love this look especially with a pony tail or top knot.

What do you think?!

I’m excited to play around with my new style!

I hope you all have a great weekend! We are wrapping up the boys’ soccer season, basketball is just getting started and we’re gearing up for Spring baseball. Our weekends are always packed to the brim, but I do have friends coming in town, so I’m sneaking away for some girl time as well.

I’ll be back on Sunday with a new Weekend Wants and some fun new posts next week!
