Yay it's Friday again! It seems like Fridays are the only days I feel obligated to write, but I am making it my goal to change that and post at least twice a week. Tomorrow is Jeff's 24th birthday! He is finally catching up with me...now he can't make any more comments about me being a "cradle robber" (I'm 5 months older than him)! Unfortunately, he has to work this weekend, but I still have some fun planned for him. How perfect is it that his birthday falls on a Saturday, aka our cheat day! I am going to make a run to Nekter Saturday morning and get his favorite acai bowl. Then I'll give him his gift when I get back! Early afternoon we will head to Marina del Rey for a work get-together that he has. Then we will head to an early dinner before going to see a performance at a small nearby venue. Sunday I plan on spending some time at the pool because it is forecasted to be 91 degrees!! My perfect weather! Here are my 5 for this week!!
Jeff's Golf Inspired Birthday Basket
[I forgot to take a picture of the basket this morning, but will post a picture of it when I give it to him on Saturday!]
I love doing gifts like this! Although the recipient doesn't get to rip off the wrapping paper, I think it is even better. I had Jeff choose the clubs that he wanted a few weeks ago, because I know nothing about golf and wanted to make sure he got the exact ones he wanted. I got him these TaylorMade irons from Sport Chalet. I also got him this putting game where it spits the ball back out to you, which just looked so fun to me! Also included are TaylorMade golf balls and glove. I liked some of the Nike stuff, but I figured since the clubs he wanted were TaylorMade, I would stick with one brand. Lastly, I got him a couple of golf polos and shorts and some golf tees! And I am definitely going to take the basket for myself after he takes everything out :)

I know that acai isn't as popular everywhere else as it is in Southern California, but everyone who hasn't tried it is truly missing out! I've acai bowls at several different places, but I am definitely in a Nekter phase right now. Jeff (who tries his hardest to stick to his New Jersey roots) even loves them! I always get the Acai Tropical, but there are several different toppings you can choose from. If you don't have anywhere that has acai on the menu, you can order the frozen acai puree online and make your own. It is a little pricey, but SO GOOD! It's even available on Amazon. I have tried the Sambazon brand before, and it is so tasty.

This is my go to color for summer. It's not too bright and a perfect summer shade! What are other good summer colors?

All White
Check out these Pinterest inspired looks!
I am loving this all white look for summer! It is so clean and cute. Adding statement jewelry, a purse, or shoes can add nice little pop of color if you feel uncomfortable with all white. I love it with just tan or nude accessories to keep it muted.

I'm new to the all-white trend...just tried it this week for the first time...and got SO.MANY.COMPLIMENTS! Needless to say, I'm now a big fan! And I'm excited to see the golf-themed basket. My husband is a golf pro...and I'm pretty much running out of golf-related ideas! Have a fabulous weekend!
ReplyDeleteIsn't it the all white so great!?! And I will definitely post the picture next week Jeff is just starting to golf so it has a lot of the essentials! Have a great weekend!
