hey y’all, happy friday and welcome to this week’s friday five!
missed last week’s? don’t worry, you can catch them all here
best clothing buy
this top gals, all the feels.
it sold out literally within hours of its initial release, but its now back in stock but who knows for how long!
its oh so soft, can be worn boatneck, cowlneck or off the shoulder, has an asymmetrical hem and THUMB HOLES. i have all the free people vibes in this one to be honest and just like my addy poncho, i cannot stop wearing it! throw it on with some ripped jeans or black skinnies and heels – it works casual and dressy and is available in sizes XS-2X (i’m wearing a small).
so yeah, go grab this top before its gone again and you have fomo for the second time and thats not a good look for anyone!
best beauty buy
cosrx acne pimple master patches //
remember when i told you about all the fun gals i’ve become friends with thru stella & dot? no? well, its totally worth the read here. anyways, my gal liz is killing the skincare game in her instastories and she totally sold me on these acne patches after we chatted about our unruly breakouts. yes gals, my skin is a disaster lately. at 37. not 13. i never even got breakouts when i was 13 but apparently i couldn’t get off that easily so they’re rearing their ugly heads in my late 30s. ugghhhh. for real. ok anyways for real this time, liz raved about these so i quickly added them to my cart and got them in two days – gotta love prime shipping! lucky for me i had a new blemish popping up on my forehead – wait, am i really lucky for that? not really, but yes for the sake of trying out this product. again, anyways, i cleaned off all my makeup with my usual products, washed, patted dry and applied some nighttime retinol and a cosrx patch to the freshie. i woke up the next morning and voila, GONE. i’m not kidding guys! all the insides of that little monster were on the patch and no longer buried in my pore! for under $5 for the pack of 24, these just HAD to be my beauty buy of the week and i’m definitely off to order more bc there’s no way i can allow myself to run out of these! ps: thanks for the rec liz!! xo
best read
ursafine //
i’m still making my way thru year of yes, so i just had to give some props to the dynamic duo over at ursafine, kat + justin. i’m also lucky enough to call these two friends. they are such a fun couple and their aesthetic gets all the heart eyes and praise hands. kat and i work together on the church’s design side and i learn so much from her each day so of course their blog is all kinds of gorge. from what they’re loving to their swoon-worthy wedding, its totally worth a read… and then a marathon pin-sesh after!
best eats
light now //
speaking of ursafine, we doubled last week and checked out the cutest little cafe light now in collingswood, nj. the hubs has gone vegan for a few weeks now so we tried this spot out for their, you guessed it, vegan menu! guys, it is SO good. think smoothies, smoothie bowls, salads and sandwiches. oh yeah and guac, really great guac. we loved it so much that we tried to go back last weekend, but we were too late and then just HAD to go back for lunch the other day bc those smoothie bowls were calling my name! if you’re local, definitely go check them out! they also house a spinning and yoga studio so if you’re really feelin’ it, work out first and then grab some eats after! it seriously might get me to start sweating it out again just for all the foods after!
best deal
shopbop sale //
i shared my faves from the shopbop sale here, but there’s only a few days left so do yourself a solid and check it out today – which is most likely your payday and you should totally treat yo’self! if anything, you need these jeans. i wear them on the regular and even devoted a friday five to them in all their glory! (i wear a 26 in these and a 2 in ae and express for reference)
some of my other fave pieces can be found here and below!
so that’s all i’ve got for this week’s friday five so be sure to subscribe to the blog on the sidebar and follow along with me on facebook, instagram, youtube and pinterest in the meantime!
