Motivational Monday

Seeing so much negativity and sadness lately,
I wanted to start the week on a positive note.

Hence, I thought I would do a post on some of my favorite 
motivational quotes.

Whenever I'm feeling out of sorts or such,
I  like to read motivational quotes.
There is something very comforting about them.

Happy Monday!

Friday Five

I cannot believe that this is the last Friday

in February. Is time just flying by or is it me?

I cannot believe March is next week.

Crazy! 

Here is my Friday Five.

Out of the Woods by Taylor Swift

I have never been a huge fan of Taylor Swift's 
music but I'm loving all her new stuff.
This song is so catchy and I have
been playing it non-stop.

Galentine's Day Blogger Exchange



I love blogger exchanges because I love meeting new bloggers.
I'm not sure who got me because there was 
no card in the package but I loved my gift.
I'm in love with the body scrub, it smells so good.
Thank you so much for the gift, it was awesome!

That wraps up my Friday Five.

I'm off today, spending time 

with some friends.

The time off is much needed.

Working six days a week gets tiring 

after a while. Thankfully, I have a

generous amount of vacation time to use.

Have a Wonderful Weekend

What are you loving this week??

Let me know, I love hearing from you!!

Confessions and What's Hap-Pinning

I confess

that I don't think I'm lady like at all.

This is a great article on how to be 

more elegant. It's really little things

that make one elegant. I'm gonna try

but I can't promise anything.

Pinterest

I confess

that I HATE my picture taken.

I just think I look horrible in pictures.

Whenever someone asks me to send a

picture, I panic because I absolutely 

hate almost every picture of me. 

Pinterest

I confess

that I shower at night so that I can sleep 

a little longer in the morning. I wish I had 

discovered this trick sooner.  It makes 

the mornings so much easier.

Pinterest

I confess

that I'm loving the color blush for spring.

Too bad, it looks horrible on me. 

I still love it. 

Pinterest

I confess

that I complain and get stressed out alot.

It finally hit me that I need to just get the courage 

and make a change. Complaining about it

will not change anything. It's action that I need to take.

Pinterest

Those are my confessions along with 

my favorite pins this week.

What are your confessions??

Let me know, I love hearing from you!!

Snow

SNOW

It finally showed up here and I'm quite in love with it.

While it makes getting around difficult, it makes everything 

look so pretty.

How funny is that last one? 
People around her get quite creative when 
making snowmen!

Even though the snow makes it hard to get
around, I still love it and hope 
that we get a little more 
before the winter is over.
Yes, I'm crazy.

Are you a fan of snow??
Let me know, I love hearing from you!!
Best, Marie

Friday Five

Is it me or did this week fly by? 

Perhaps, it was because I had Monday off.

I blinked and it was Friday.

Let's get right to my Friday Five.

{one}

Defying Gravity by Aaron Tveit and Rachel Tucker

This is part of #OutofOz: Wicked studio sessions 

and it's absolutely incredible. I have been listening to 

it non-stop. I sort of wish they actually sold the song,

so I could add it to my iTunes. 

Plus, Aaron Tveit is a hottie!!

Golden Girls get Funko

I'm probably dating myself here, but I love The Golden Girls.

My grandmother was a huge fan of the show 

and I would watch the show with her.

I totally want the Sophia one.

Look how cute she is, she 

even has her purse with her.

Longchamp Le Piage Neo Tote bag in pink

Does this bag not just scream for me or what??

I saw it the other day at Neiman Marcus 

and was like oh no oh no. I'm on a shopping ban 

for the month but this bag is so tempting me. 

Seriously, isn't she beautiful??

Big Ang

I was devastated to learn that Angela "Big Ang" Railoa 

had passed away yesterday. I loved her on Mob Wives. I also watched

her on Couples Therapy and thought she and her husband, Neil

were adorable. She was larger than life.

May she rest in peace

That wraps up my Friday Five.

I got nothing planned 

for this weekend and that 

is fine with me. Although,

I do plan on getting a mani and pedi.

My hands and feet need some pampering.

even though the acting in it, is HORRIBLE!

when I'm in the shower.

In another life, I was a rockstar.

 and it doesn't even matter who's around. 

I have no filter or censor.

Pinterest

  I confess

 people listen to. My sister has terrible

taste in music.

Olivia Palermo & Chelsea28

I have a total girl crush on Olivia Palermo.

Her style is beyond amazing. I was thrilled

 to hear that she has her own clothing line

with  Nordstrom's Chelsea28.

The collection is just how I would imagine it would be. 

Classy yet functional.One could actually wear

 these pieces for work or for play. 

Visit Nordstrom for the full collection.

Who is your style crush on??

Let me know, I love hearing from you!!

Best, Marie
