Valentine's Day Sweet Breakfast Treat

 Hello there! I've been MIA on here for a while! I'm in the thick of dance team season so it's been a busy month so far. This year I have decided to break up my Valentine posts instead of one big spew of pictures. Joel took me to a brunch at a local winery this year, we have been wanting to try it out for a while and it actually sold out, but fortunately, some of Joel's friends ended up with extra tickets so we got to go. I woke up pretty early on my own, so I decided to surprise Joel with a light breakfast in bed to hold us over until brunch later in the day.

 Hot chocolate, and mini bagels with strawberry cream cheese--with a dash of red sprinkles on both, just to make it a little prettier :)

I found the pink tray  at Target in the "dollar" section for $3.

 I love having an excuse to use paper straws. I'm kind of a paper straw hoarder. I think they're so pretty so I buy them all the time, but then I hardly use them. I need to have more parties I think ;)

 ...And add an Instagram filter for a little extra magic hehe.

Fashion Friday

My goodness, we have had some beautiful weather this week!

We had Monday off from school for President's Day so I took advantage of the free time and bit the bullet and got a walk in appointment at the salon down the street from me. I couldn't handle the mullet anymore! I don't know if I will ever grow my hair long again because I HATE the transition stage. I didn't color it because I wanted to go to my dear friend who usually does my hair for color. It feels so good to have short hair again!

 What I wore: Sweater: Target // Leggings: Forever21 // Boots: Nine West (old)

 Happy Friday!

Fashion Friday

Last weekend My husband and I went to a family gathering for his Dad's side. We were planning on meeting a friend at a restaurant with a rooftop bar afterward, but we were having such a nice time visiting that we ended up staying at the gathering pretty late. So I guess I was just a little overdressed for the event.

My husband was making fun of me for taking selfies in the car. To be honest, I feel a little silly & vain posting them, but I thought I looked pretty, and I wanted to show off my headband! 

What I Wore: Dress: Target (similar) // Sandals: Target // Headband: Maurices 

And here's the one picture I got with my husband as the photographer. At the end of the night after we got home in our ugly parking lot. Oh well. The dress & the sandals are both from Target and I couldn't find them online but I found similar items. You can probably find them in stores still because I got them only a few weeks ago. The dress was only $20 and the shoes are actually a size 2 from the little girls section. If you like them and have smaller feet, they probably go up to about a size 6 (size 4 in girls is often the same as 6 in women's). For once having child's size feet worked in my favor.
Well, here's to hoping I have a real reason to dress up again at some point during the short summer I have left!
Have a great weekend!
