inspire:
"It takes courage to grow up and become who you really are." I think this quote applies to any age, and it is certainly something to remember.

wear:
It is a known fact that I have a romper obsession, and I love how fun this one is. It can easily be dressed up or down, though I would opt to keep it casual with that one.

drink:
This coconut pineapple recipe looks absolutely amazing! We might be recreating this one over the weekend.

eat:
I love easy pasta recipes that I can whip up really quickly and that will also be good the next day to take for lunch. This twenty-minute tortellini bake is on my menu for Sunday!

see:
I'm spending the weekend with SW, and I can't wait. Weather permitting, it's going to be a relaxing weekend by the pool -- no beach for me this weekend! He's also been taking all of my blog pictures, and I'm in love with how they are turning out! The DSLR is only a few weeks old and neither of us has much experience, so I can't wait for both of us to keep learning techniques that will make them even better.

With this short week, Friday came very quickly, and I know the weekend will fly by, too. Hope it's a great one!

It's Friday, and I'm linking up with Christina over at Carolina Charm!

Here's what I'm loving this November Friday.

I'm Raleigh bound for the weekend! SW and I (and Sophie, of course) are heading to Raleigh to see NC State play UNC (Go Pack!). I can't wait to reunite with all of my best friends! So excited.Raleigh Skyline North Carolina NC  - 8x10 World Traveler Series Pop Art Print City Skyline Raleigh art - Available in 56 Colors - UNC025

Kerry Washington -- a double dose today! First of all, Scandal was amazing as always last night. They make you finally believe all is well and at the second, something else happens that leaves you hanging on the edge of your seat! But this lovely lady is expecting! I can only imagine she'll follow Kate Middleton's lead and be an ultra-fab mama-to-be!

It's November 1st! I know I'm getting a bit ahead of myself, but it looks like the holiday season to me! (and I heard Christmas music on the radio this morning so I must not be the only one...)

How adorable is this?!

I ordered a Cathryn Ann Designs tassel bracelet last week, and a lovely one like this is on it's way to me!

Happy Friday, everyone. Hope it's a great one!
So happy it's Friday! Once 5:00 rolls around, I will be good to go! What are 5 things I'm loving on this beautiful fall Friday?


:: ONE :: 
This gorgeous fall weather and the fact that it is almost October!
Orange and Annie of Green Gables. Yes.

:: TWO :: 
My sweet mom, grandmother, and sister are coming today! I am so excited for them to visit -- and my little sister has never seen my new apartment, so I'm excited for that too!

:: THREE :: 
Finishing the decorating process! My bedroom is pretty much just how I want it, but the living room is still a work in progress. We're going to work on that tomorrow. Here's a little inspiration.

:: FOUR ::
I really want to try Essie's Smokin' Hot nail color. My friends all pick on me because I choose boring neutrals most of the time (cue Bubble Bath), but I am loving this for a lovely fall mani.

:: FIVE ::
Last but certainly not least, this giveaway that I'm partnering on with Unique Chic! Be sure to check it out here and enter to win this fun necklace as well as check out their other looks!

Hope you have a great weekend!
