Pop of Pink

 Forever 21 top, Bebe white jeans, Aldo neon pink wedges

This weekend went by way to quick. I caught up with my girlfriend who I hadn't seen in years. I love when I can see friends after a long period of time and pick up where we left off.  We went and got lunch at one of our favorite spots and then grabbed some cupcakes for dessert. I had an amazing time with her! My daughter had a birthday party to go to, we did some errands, and yesterday I got my monthly massage at Red Door. Overall it was a wonderful weekend, I can't wait to see what this week brings us!

Foodie Fridays: Fruit Tarts

Did I ever mention that I love everything in miniature? I love cupcakes, mini muffins, petite fours, and tarts. When my family decided to do a BBQ for my moms birthday, I immediately took the job of desserts. I had planned on making a lot of mini tarts, in all my moms favorite desserts. I made lemon meringue tarts, key lime tarts, coconut macaroon tarts, pecan pies, and fruit tarts. I found the recipe here, and it came out delicious! My family went crazy for all the tarts, but my favorite was definitely these fruit tarts. The custard alone was amazing, I licked the whole bowl until it looked clean again.

Inspire Me

 

Love the high waisted white shorts

 At least once a week I look into what other girls are wearing, I love seeing how women put outfits together. I draw a lot of inspiration from magazines, blogs, and the every day woman. These are four looks that really speak to my inner goddess. I plan to incorporate bits and pieces from these images into my every day wardrobe. 

 I think LC always looks put together 

 I am in LOVE with this anklet

I love the angle of this picture, and the style in it

Polished Prep

James Perse 3/4 Shirt, Paige Denim Jeans, Steve Madden Booties, 

Bow Scarf, Louis Vuitton Purse

Finding a good pair of jeans to fit me is near impossible. I have a 24 waist but a rounder backside, this always leaves me with jeans that fit on my thighs and backside but are huge at the top. I have been searching for some new jeans for a while, about 18 months, and I have finally found my favorite, Paige Denim. I love Hudson Jeans, Fade to Blue, and some Bebe jeans, but I have found my match with Paige. I love the rise, the different washes, styles, and how I can pair them with sky high heels and make my legs look super long. I plan on going back to the store to get a lot more of this brand.

Forever 21 Halter Top, Paige Denim Jeans, 

Privileged Keaton Peep toe Booties 

Yesterday morning my daughter and I slept in, after a couple hours of lounging around the house we ran our errands and came home to clean up and wait for my girlfriend to come over. The weather went up and down all day, one minute it was raining and the next it was sunny. I decided on a cute top that I found at Forever 21. some skinny jeans, and these heel less shoes that just arrived at my door, and boy are they comfortable! These are by far my favorite shoes that I own, so far.

LBD- Long Black Dress

5|48 dress, Steve Madden Wedges, Essie Muchi Muchi nail polish

We had wonderful weather this weekend, so naturally I took advantage of it. I had a lot of running around to do so I needed to wear something flowy and effortless. I love this black dress that I bought at Saks, it is so comfortable and the attached braided belt gives the dress shape. I took my daughter bathing suit shopping and got some ice cream. We had a nice girls day together, I love having girls days with her. Overall it was a wonderful weekend, and now here comes the rain.

Foodie Fridays: Pecan Tart

 It was my mothers birthday last week and I made all of her favorite pies and tarts for her get together on Sunday. I made Key Lime tarts, Lemon Meringue tarts, Pecan Tarts, Fruit Tarts, and Coconut Macaroon tarts. I am so happy with the way everything turned out. I got so many compliments and people telling me that I should take up baking as a job. I really enjoy doing it, but would never want to do it for a living, I love making desserts for the people I love.
