:: friday randoms ::



This week marked 17 years since the (Lilo version of) The Parent Trap was released.
how was that 17 years ago ? 
I can still quote every line from that movie. 
and mean girls. 
really Lindsay, how you did you go from that to where you are now? 



I saw a bunch of clips of Andy Cohen helping Ramona promote her new book “Life on the Ramona Coaster”.
yawn.
the best was when she was giving this huge, rambling speech and says one of the main reasons she wrote it was for “carthotic” reasons. (video) 


 like, orthotic with a c.



the Nordstrom sale is almost over, but theres still tons of goodies to be had! 
for example, this la mer face cream, that is on sale from $1,445 to $1,030!! 
Y’ALL!!!!! CAN YOU EVEN BELIEVE THAT BARGAIN?!?! for a whole 8 oz!!!! 



yeah me neither so lets talk about actual sale items 🙂 
ps – just screw it and get a face lift people if thats how much money you have to spend on face cream mmmmkthanksbye. 


some of my favorite purchases include the hunter boot socks and these zella live in leggings that I got in two colors.  
everyone in pure barre dresses like they are straight out of lululemon and while it annoys me I was starting to get embarrassed wearing the same outfit every friday 🙂  like, what, my bright green bachelorette party tank and 5 year old groove pants isn’t acceptable? these are SO comfy and suck you in right at the hips so the extra little muffin area that I totally don’t get in pants and never have stays hidden. 

{zella live in leggings} 

I also love the Kendra Scott pendant necklace I got, which is 50% off during the sale. 

{ kendra scott necklace }  and more color options
also love these earrings and this ring that are part of the sale! 

haters can hate, but I LOVE my ugglies. I have ever since freshman year of college when we would don ours with frayed abercrombie jean skirts and polo shirts (the natural outfit choice for a late summer/early fall day in Ohio).  where is photographic evidence of this amazing outfit when I need it.   

I am obsessed with this quilted sweater version.

{ knit ugg boots } 
living in hellacious frozen tundra, I destroy my uggs and need new ones annually.
and if we’re being real honest, the ugg slippers are the definition of pure heaven.
  

this enchilada lasagna combines two of my favorite things, pasta and mexican, into one casserole dish (my other love : casseroles).

{ chicken enchilada lasagna } 


and to end on a random personal note you won’t care about,
our mattress (kips old mattress) is way too old and we need a new one.
we needed a new one a long time ago. 
but, like, mattresses are expensive.  and you know I’m not practical with large purchases.  I’d rather plan on eating thousands of dollars of pasta and gelato in Italy than think about a mattress. and what if we buy another queen and then later on we are in a place where we could have had a king size mattress?  then what? we’re stuck for years in a mattress where he takes up the whole thing and I’m practically falling off the edge of the bed? 
so now the mattress springs make a HUGE exploding noise every time I climb in bed.
just my side, right where my spot is, not his.

and it is just soooooo hilarious. (for him).  it sounds like I am a sumo wrestler every single time I get in and out of bed and that we are going to collapse on to the floor any minute.

for someone that drinks as much water as I do and has the bladder of a 6 year old, its gotten old real quick.
Ugh I hate spending money on important things you should be spending money on like the bed we sleep on every night! 


annnnyyyyyways
van damme its friday have a great weekend everyone 🙂

    Umm there is no way you have a muffin top! We got our mattress and topper from Costco! It's seriously amazing! I know it's a big purchase but it will be totally worth it! p.s. remember when J-CVD was on Friends!?

    • Taylor says: July 31, 2015 at 6:28 pm

      haha oh my gosh I totally forgot when he was on friends but YES! We'll have to check out costco!

  4. Karen Clark says: July 31, 2015 at 3:25 pm

    One mattressy word: CASPER. Like, AmAZing. AND not expensive either!

    • Taylor says: July 31, 2015 at 6:29 pm

      I'll have to check casper out thank you so much!!

  5. Samantha Schwartz says: July 31, 2015 at 4:59 pm

    So I see that someone else suggested it but I agree! http://www.tuftandneedle.com

    My husband and I got a king mattress from tuft and needle and we LOVE it. The first few nights when you lay on it it seems firm but we slept AMAZING. It has gotten softer the longer that we have had it. They have an amazing return policy and I think we got the king for $750.

    • Taylor says: July 31, 2015 at 6:29 pm

      thats such a steal I'll have to check those out thank you so so much!

    Great post full of useful tips! My site is fairly new and I am also having a hard time getting my readers to leave comments. Analytics shows they are coming to the site but I have a feeling “nobody wants to be first”.

    Hey – great blog, just looking around some blogs, seems a really nice platform you are using. I’m currently using WordPress for a few of my blogs but looking to change one of them over to a platform similar to yours as a trial run. Anything in particular you would recommend about it?

  • DIY this high end look for less! I'm sharing the 5 easy steps to disguise your air return cover and all the supplies to complete this project. My favorite part of this easy DIY how-to, is that tou can customize the look with paint color and different metal sheet patterns to match your home decor and aesthetic. I actually used leftover supplies from my DIY built-in shelf and desk in my home office to create this look. It helps elevate the space, adding a touch of elegance and a refined finish without breaking the bank. It was easy and affordable to create this custom look for less. Click to shop the DIY project supplies on Amazon. Note: I used scrap wood I had on hand for the project, but you can also pick up 1x2 wood planks from Amazon or a local hardware or craft store. #ad #Amazon #DIY
