5 on Friday!

1/ Baby Chica. My high school friends and I call ourselves "the chicas"...yes it is kinda weird and I have no idea how it came about or stuck, but it did. Tomorrow we're celebrating the first "baby" chica-one my best friends Shannon is having a baby girl in November. Baby Chica's (Sage to most of the world) baby shower is Tomorrow! I am so excited and ready to meet this little bundle of joy as I know she will be adorable. Shannon is one of the strongest and sweetest girls you'll ever meet! We have been friends for years and I'm so lucky to have her in my life...here is a throwback pic of us-I love you Shanny!

2/ Cape Cod Girl's Weekend. A week from today I'll be walking off my red-eye flight in Boston to go meet my sister, mama, nephew (he's the only boy allowed), and the rest of my aunts/cousins and grandma for a fun weekend in Cape Cod. It's an annual tradition and I look forward to it every year!

3/Designer Purse. I wouldn't call myself a "designer snob" persay, but when it comes to purses I really like a cute/well-made purse. I've actually only ever had one, a Marc Jacobs black purse I got for my college graduation 3 years ago and JUST retired 1 month ago. I would hands down say that bag was worth the crazy amount spent on it. But, I couldn't fathom spending that much right now with all my other expenses, so I set out to find a more affordable one...and I'm so happy with my Pretty Ships bag...it's the new Marc Jacobs...okay maybe I just tell myself that, but it's cute and 1/3 the price!

 4/"Smokin Hot". I think I found my favorite nail color for this Fall season! Not too dark, not too light, just right everyday color!

5/Fall Drank. I'm so excited that Caitlin over at Home Sweet Ruby, posted this yummy looking Fall Sangria. I can't wait to try it. I love drinks/food to get in seasonal moods and this recipe looks awesome. I think I will bring it to our Girls Weekend next weekend!
