{1}-Favorite City: Chicago
After our 4 day vacay in Chicago, I've decided that it's my newest, favorite big city. There was so much to do (we still have a ton we would do if we went back), the city offered so much in one place (lake, river, beach, skyscrapers, small neighborhoods) and we met some really awesome people (I've texted with the girl in the couple we met and hung out with every day since!). Not to mention all of the amazing food, and the quality time with my husband (all the heart eyes!)
{2} Favorite Delivery
After some annoyances, my Nordstrom multi-color glitter earrings FINALLY arrived Wednesday (they were cancelled by Nordtroms, then re-ordered, then delayed...basically I figured the universe was telling me I shouldn't have them), but they are here and they are beautiful! If I only keep one pair, it will likely be these because they are gorgeous! (but I'm still having trouble deciding to let go of the pink ones haha)
{3} Favorite Purchase
This MIRA water bottle! I reviewed it yesterday (you can find it here). It's just like a Swell bottle but basically half the price. Love that it keeps my drinks cold all day long!

{4} The Weather
I know sometimes this is in my favorites, but when it's as nice out as it has been this week, it deserves mention. I sat out on our deck for 4 hours reading yesterday, and did not drip one tiny droplet of sweat the entire time because it was SO gorgeous out, and--my personal favorite--no humidity!! Cooper even came out and joined me for a little bit! The weather is supposed to be just as gorgeous today and I have some pool time on the docket. Give me all the pretty weather and sunshine, please and thank you!!!!

{5} Puppy cuteness
This week's funnies revolve around dogs--Cooper had his teeth cleaned and a couple of tooth extractions on Monday, which inspired my dog gifs.

ReplyDeleteomg every blogger got those kate spade earrings and I am very envious! They are gorge! Love the puppy and seriously considering trying the MIRA bottle.
ReplyDeleteLinds @ not a mom
I just blogged about those earrings on my Friday 5… I love all of them… but REALLY wanted the turquoise ones. They were not in the budget this month, so I passed. But you will have to share a picture of them on, because they are so great!!!
ReplyDeleteChicago is totally on my list of places to visit. Everyone I know who goes just loves it. Oh those KS earrings are so fab. Thanks to you, I got then in silver. They are so pretty. I say keep both. Sorry, I am no help. Oh I need to check out that water bottle. I love my bkr but it doesn't keep my water cold all day. Happy Friday!
ReplyDeletei LOVE those earrings! I've been looking at them for forever but have yet to pull the trigger. And so jealous of y'alls weather. It is still ridiculously hot in NC, way too hot to read outside ugh. bring on the Fall temps please!
ReplyDeleteI have never been to Chicago. I'll add it to my list. or if you move there then I'll come visit. I usually only visit cities friends or family live in lol. I can't believe it's mid-august and I haven't accomplished one thing all summer. it's really quite sad. i shouldve taken a trip or gone on vacation or at least went up to OC for one day. I just let the whole 3 months pass me by. lame.

Oh I wish we had your weather, perfection! My sister-in-law LOVES Chicago, I'd love to visit one day. Hope you have a great weekend girl! Xx
ReplyDeleteI love those Kate Spade earrings!!!! They're adorable and so much fun!
ReplyDeleteChicago is the best! I grew up there and just in the past year moved away and we miss it so much! It is such a wonderful city--I am so glad you enjoyed it! Love the Kate Spade earrings. They are so much fun! I have to check out your Mira bottle review because I have been eyeing those Swell bottles but have a hard time justifying that much money for a water bottle! Have a wonderful weekend!
ReplyDeleteYou know I'm still envious over your chicago trip!!
ReplyDeleteAnd those earrings - well I say keep both! Haha but I'm the wrong one to ask. I have both (and the solid gold). But if you really must choose - I say the multi colored b/c they are more versatile. But that pains me to say b/c you know how much i LOVE pink!
Have a great wknd!
Now I want to visit Chicago! Love all the pup cuteness...nothing better than a pup!! Happy Friday! xx
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh... KEEP THEM BOTH! Those earrings are sooooo gorgeous! I'm seriously in love, ha ha!
ReplyDeleteI'm dying to go to Chicago someday!! I'm so glad it was such a great trip for you two!
LOVE both earrings! Haha good luck deciding! Still jealous of your Chicago trip, I need to start look at flights...
ReplyDeleteFun earrings! I can't wait to check out the Mira bottles after hearing all the hype about Swell. Have a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteAwwwwww that last one is so cute!!!!! Can't wait to get my bottle, so hard to pick but I went with the red one. Just keep both earrings you know you want to ;-)
ReplyDeleteWish I could bathe all my babies at once.
ReplyDeleteLove Chicago! I visited a few years ago and fell in love with the city! How great that you made a new friend on your trip :) Love my KS multi glitter earrings & I vote yes to keeping the pink too!

Any bottle that can keep a drink cold all day is a winner in my book! Chicago is one of our all time favorite cities, too! So much to do there at any time of year!
ReplyDeleteThose earrings are to die for!!! So cute!
ReplyDeleteOh, those Kate Spade earrings are adorable! Love, love, love the dachshund gif too. :-)
ReplyDeleteThose earrings are the best! Although Nordstrom sounds like they blew it big time! I'm all about the doggy gifs! Hope your pup is feeling better!! xoxo
ReplyDeleteI loveee getting deliveries - I am sure you were on pins & needles waiting for those cute earrings!! Enjoy your weekend!!
ReplyDeleteAll the dog funnies just made my entire day! I'm so glad that you had a great time in Chicago, and I can't wait for the verdict if you kept both pairs of earrings. :)
