Welcoming the Weekend!

Happy Friday, sweets! Are you guys as excited for the weekend as I am? I have a fun-filled packed one ahead of me!

Tonight I'm lucky enough to be attending the Lucky Shops VIP Event courtesy of the lovely Audrey Allure. I won her contest a few weeks ago and I've been bursting with excitement ever since!

Then tomorrow night I'll be hitting the town with my sister and brother-in law, aka BFFs, to celebrate my sissy's birthday which is today! Cannot wait for that one! Oh and I'll be sporting my latest purchase, the fabulous Zara sequinned clutch above. I've been dying for it for a while but despite searching high and low everywhere in store and online I couldn't find it. Thanks to Sabra from The Lonely Wife Project's help, it's finally mine!!!

What will you all be doing this weekend? Hope it's jam packed with fun like mine is :)

Oh and I just wanted to say happy birthday to my amazing sister and best friend Lisa today! She's the love of my life {well excluding J} and I celebrate today as if it were my own bday :)

Enjoy, lovelies!!!

xoxo

    Have a fantastic time at both events! Glad you managed to find the clutch - it's perfect for this time of year and very similar to the Valorie by Anya Hindmarch. Great buy!

    Have a Happy weekend filled with family + friends! (side note, must try doing my eye makeup as shown in this first image, I have the same kind of green gray eyes that I wish I knew how to make 'pop' more. This works. :)

    Happy weekend!

    It sounds like you are having an amazing weekend. I hope your sister had a great birthday and got some amazing gifts. My dad had surgery Friday so I spent the entire day in the hospital with my family and yesterday we celebrated my dad's birthday. I have a crazy busy week ahead of me so I have decided to stay home and nap, watch a movie or two and read today.
