:: Weekend Lovelies ::

Happy Saturday! What are you up to this weekend? Hopefully you have some fun plans mixed-in with some quality family time! This is actually our 50th Weekend Lovelies post! Wow! Time sure flies! As always… it’s an eclectic, but completely lovely mix of our favorite finds on the web during the last week. Thanks for stopping by our blog… we appreciate you all so much! We hope that you enjoy the links below… and of course, your weekend! 

“We’re Going to Be Friends” // Caroline Pennell  Oh my goodness… Have you guys been watching The Voice? Caroline Pennell has been my {and Miss Sophia Blue’s} personal favorite this season. Her rendition of “We’re Going to Be Friends” plays on repeat {super loud} in our house. It puts a smile on my face every time I hear it! Can you believe this talented girl is only 17-years old? Amazing! You can download her music on iTunes! 

ShoeMint // Casey Wiegand  I love, love, love Casey Wiegand’s blog! I know you will, too! Right now she has a ShoeMint feature on her site, as well as, a giveaway for one pair of shoes! I did a little research into ShoeMint and registered on their site myself. They ask you several style questions and then pair you up with shoe matches that seem to fit your personal style preferences. ShoeMint is a collaboration between actress and style icon, Rachel Bilson, and celebrity stylist, Nicole Chavez, with manufacturing by Steve Madden! All shoes include free shipping and returns! Go check it out!

DIY Gold Leaf Garland // The Sweetest Occasion since I’m slightly completely obsessed with all things GOLD, I thought I’d share with you this delightful DIY garland. It’s simply lovely… don’t you think?

Fall Party Inspiration // 100 Layer Cake Oh how I adore the fall colors and casual decor used for this party… great inspiration for an upcoming gathering, or for the Thanksgiving holiday!

DIY Wreaths for the Holidays // Oh Happy Day  Here is a lovely tutorial for making three different classic holiday wreaths: one made out of olive branches,  another from kumquats + bay leaves, and the third created out of  berries + bay leaves {all of which you should be able to get from your local florist}. So pretty…

Children’s Handmade Coats // Litte Goodall on Etsy I recently found this sweet shop when I viewed one of Etsy’s 2013 holiday videos {here}. How cute are these coats? She has so many fun ones to choose from!

Pumpkin Sticky Buns // Completely Delicious My mouth is seriously watering just looking at this picture of sticky buns….  and I quite possibly have already gained five pounds! Yum!

Slouchy Sweat Pants + Leopard Heels + Bright Lips // See Jane I’m sort of in love with this whole look. What do you think? Slightly structured slouchy sweat pants + a classic top + leopard heels + bright lipstick = perfection!
