Wednesday Faves Week #48

Image
We are getting close, y'all.  It's almost the end of the year!  So I am getting in the Christmas spirit as a couple of my Faves reflect, but y'all, I am SO excited about one of my Faves this week!  So, let's get started... 1) These leggings.  I have discovered Calvin Klein leggings and I love them!  This is just one of my fun patterns.  They actually motivate me to work out.  Ha!  I like them because they are high waisted and thick and come in a lot of fun patterns.  They make me feel sassy (like I need a reason)! 2) Ice Cube in the Dryer hack.  Y'all this might rank up there in my Faves' Hall of Fame!  One day my brilliant son, Harrison, came over to do laundry.  He actually brought some clean wrinkled clothes over and put them in the dryer.  He then goes to my ice maker and grabs a handful of ice, hurling it into the dryer with his clothes.  I asked him, "What in the heck did you just do?" to which he exp...

Happy Thanksgiving Eve everyone!  Today I'm slipping my Faves in between Pure Barre, moving my son into his new apartment, and cooking for tomorrow. 1) This tree.  Last weekend my husband and I visited our daughter in Austin.  We stayed at the Fairmont Hotel and they had this AMAZING tree in their lobby bar.  Loved the blue and green Edison bulbs.  My husband and I want to recreate this in our entryway!  That will be a conversation piece for sure! 2) iPhone Spacebar Hack.  I saw this on Facebook last week and couldn't wait to try it out.  It works!!  I love that I can finally get that little cursor where I want it now. 3) My new beanie.  I love that new beanie!  I wear it when walking to and from Pure Barre.  I feel so fancy and it keeps my ears warm.  (Yes, I wear it whether Auburn wins or loses.) 4) Thats All coffee mug.  I love these coffee mugs!  Everyone is raving over the Rae Dunn mugs la...

It's COLD y'all!  Are you loving it?  I know most of you aren't, but I actually am.  So let's get to my Faves for the week: 1) This nail color.  I am loving this nail color this week!  It's a silvery grey with sparkles.  I have received many compliments and it will be perfect for Christmas and New Year's.   2) The Haunting of Hill House.  I know we've kind of moved on from the Halloween season and into the feel good Thanksgiving/Christmas season, but I only recently finished this series and really enjoyed it!  I love scary shows, but I'm very picky about them.  This one was very well done.  Thank you for the recommendation, Lawrence and Hayley! 3) Notebook App.  I just discovered this app and I love it!  It syncs to all my devices and basically it is a series of Notebooks you create.  I have three right now: My Notebook (default, you are required to have this one), Records, and Purchase/Buy.  ...

Happy Fall Y'all!  And Happy Faves!  1) Shout Stain Remover Wipes.  I love these things!  This past week I had to use them twice (it was clearly a messy week).  Somehow I got lip gloss on my shirt while getting ready and I tried just using water, but that didn't remove it, so I used one of these Shout wipes and voila'! Good as new! Then, I just flat out spilled red wine on my shoe, but it, too, is good as new! I always have these on hand.  Highly recommend! 2) Pumpkins.  I boldly proclaimed to my husband that "I hated pumpkins". We've been married for 30 years and he just found this out last week.  Then, I got out my Thanksgiving/Fall decor (I don't have much because I prefer the theatrics of Halloween and the festiveness of Christmas decor) and remembered these guys from Pottery Barn several years ago.  They are big, substantial and heavy, and I love them! 3) More Pumpkins.  We had a dinner party for some people from work...
