5 on Friday!!

It is so dark, windy, and rainy in Southern California!  This must be our version of polar vortex, and I do not enjoy it.  I am hoping that I will still be able to make it up to Bakersfield tomorrow for Tatum's big 2nd birthday party.  We are celebrating Tatum and my Nonna's birthdays with a joint party.  Well, here's my 5 for Friday!!

-ONE-

Tarte Amazonian Clay Waterproof Brow Mousse

I LOVE THIS PRODUCT!!  I started using it about a month ago after I realized that my brows were in need of some deep TLC.  It comes in 3 shades: taupe, medium brown, and dark brown.  I have dark features and black eyebrows, but use the medium brown.  My advice would be to go a shade lighter to make them look more natural.  I tried using pencils before this, but they don't even compare.  It makes your brows look so natural.  I purchased mine from Amazon, but you can also buy it on the Tarte site here.  It is a little pricey at $28.00 for .10 oz, but like I said I have had mine for about a month now and you can barely even tell I have used any.  You definitely don't need much to make a large impact.

Steve Madden 'Marlenee' Sandal

I ordered these last week and CANNOT WAIT to break them out.  They are a perfect addition to any spring wardrobe and also are the perfect not-to-short not-to-tall heel height.  And a plus, they are 50% off at Nordy's!!!  I ordered them in black also, but half size smaller (all they had in stock).  Unfortunately, they were too small and toes hanging off the end of a sandal isn't the most flattering... :( They don't have as many sizes left at Nordstrom, but they have a ton of colors/sizes on the Steve Madden site.  They are a little pricier there, too pricey for me.  I guess I will have to wait for a sale!

-THREE-

Love U Lots 'Butterfly' Two-Piece

This is definitely one of my favorite gifts that I got Tate for her birthday!  I started out ordering this and one other suit from Nordy's.  Then, I went to Kohls and got her the CUTEST little striped romper and a suit & coverup with pink gingham and strawberries.  All so cute, but this one definitely stuck out as my fave!

-FOUR-

My Cutesy Desk

Love my orchid and Anthropologie mug!  Mine is the gold special edition but the black is available on the site.  My monogram was a free printable from  ForChicSake.  They have SO many adorable printable on the site, I love it.  Frames and planner are from Target!

-FIVE- 

How is everyone doing with their New Year's resolutions?  I found this list in January, and realized that it was fairly accurate!  I know there are still plenty of things that I need to work on.  I have been successful with the health aspect to this point, but am currently trying to focus on gratitude and listening.  With lent just around the corner, I am trying my hardest to become the best possible on the inside (of course while working on the outside as well)!

HAPPY FRIDAY!!!!!!!!!!!
