This has been a wild and fun week. Since Labor Day was Monday, it seems like this week has flown by quickly. Schools started back here in the county on Tuesday, and Emersyn has been trying to go to school virtually, and that has been a challenge for everyone. The teachers have to figure out the system, Emersyn has to learn to watch a computer screen all day long while her little brother is running around, and her mom has to try and keep it all together while doing the job of wife, mommy, babysitter, and teacher. Whew! I sure am glad that I don’t have kids in school right now.
If you are wondering about the beginning photo; that is me and my younger sister who celebrated a birthday yesterday. She is the one who encouraged me to start a blog, but she is also the one who peeked under doors at me, she told everyone on the bus that I wore panties with the days of the week on them, and she did a “naked city” show in front of my friends when she was five. How in the world did this pain in my rear ever become my BEST FRIEND??? Lol!!!
Yesterday, I was one of about 20 or so bloggers who were invited to attend the first-ever “virtual” Kendra Scott Color Bar Party. Kendra Scott sent us three different pieces of jewelry, and the stones that we could insert into the jewelry, and the pliers so that we could tighten the stones down. It was fun to get to see everyone learning how to put the jewelry together and then showing off all of the items once they were made. So, to start my Friday Favorites off, I am going to first go with my favorite Kendra Scott purchases, especially since they are going to give my followers a unique code for 20% off for TODAY only. The code is KSFALL, and you will enter that in the Promo Code at checkout. This excludes fine jewelry, sterling, clearance, and home items!
Here are a few of my favorite pieces.
// AVI Large Hoops // McKenna Stone Necklace // Rue Long Necklace // Beckett Link Bracelet //
// Beckett Statement Necklace // Beckett Link Bracelet //
Once I got the code, I immediately ordered several items for myself. Lol!!! I love chains and links, so the new fall items were calling my name. Here is what I ordered; the Ryder Mixed Metal Chain Necklace, the Ryder Mixed Metal Chain Bracelet, and the Ryder Statement Earrings in Gold. Some of these items were more than I would typically pay, but here is why I ordered them. The necklace is versatile and can be worn in several different lengths. It has five chains, so it has a big punch if all of the chains are worn at once. Since I already own the Beckett necklace, I will be able to add that chain to the necklace as well for another look. AND, since I got it at 20% off, I saved $40.00. I never look at how much I spent, only how much I saved. Hahaha!!!
Besides jewelry, I wanted to show you some of my latest purchases from Amazon. I order a LOT from Amazon, and I am continually getting packages delivered weekly, if not daily. I have several clothing purchases that you will see me style next week, but I am going to go ahead and tell you the items that I bought. Plus, there are a few items that I love from Amazon that are clothing, and I’ll show you those also.
Daily Ritual Women’s Long Water-Resistant Primaloft Puffer Jacket
Amazon Essentials Women’s Girlfriend Ankle Jean
Lark & Ro Women’s Georgette Long Sleeve Button Up Woven Top
Lark & Ro Women’s Premium Viscose Blend Long Sleeve V-Neck Sweater
Long Sleeve Faux Wrap Surplice V Neck Sweater Top
Women’s Turtleneck Oversized Sweaters
Kattee Women’s Genuine Leather Handbags Shoulder Tote
I also ordered my Bounty Paper towels, Charmin Ultra Gentle Toilet Paper, and Dixie Heavy Weight Paper Plates. Lol! But, I didn’t think that you gurls would want to see the photos of those.
My DIL loves the air purifier that I bought her for Christmas last year. We have a lot of dust from the highway and railroad track that is behind our house, and the kids have seasonal allergies. But, she says this does a great job filtering the air.
Jawzrsize Jaw Exerciser And Neck Toning
My daughter swears these things work to help with neck waddle. You know what I am talking about, the turkey-neck syndrome or triple chins. She has been using them, so she bought me this set also, but I can’t remember to use them. I need to set these beside the skincare that I do morning and night so that I will remember to use them. (I can’t believe that I am showing you these things. Lol!)
I am sure that your brain is trying to process all of this jumble. You have everything from gorgeous jewelry, pretty clothing, and an air purifier, to toilet paper and jaw exercisers. Isn’t this why you gurls love me…you never know what I will post on the blog. Lol!!!
If you’ve not entered into my Fifth Anniversary Giveaway for the necklace and earring set shown above, then go to this post and leave a comment. Also, every month I am having a new incentive and giveaway for Rodan + Fields. This month it is all about a routine. People tend to pick and choose products instead of getting on a regimen that is specially formulated to work together. All of our regimens come as a 4-piece set, and each product is designed to work with the next product. They are numbered so that you don’t have any confusion on which product to use when. This month’s special is going to be, purchase any regimen, add Active Hydration Serum, and I’ll gift you Redefine Multi-Function Eye Cream. (64.00 value for FREE) Purchase MUST be made as my Preferred Customer. Here is the Solutions Tool for you to take so that you will know what regimen you need.
Notice how my eyes are much more opened…this is because of the Redefine Eye Cream!!! I use it 2X a day, and I never miss using it!

I love the picture of you and your little sister. My little sister and I are best friends too ????
Love the oversized sweater from amazon but can’t decide what color to order. Too many choices.
I loved to read about the ‘waddle’. I used to waddle but banished it by losing weight. The wattle, with double Ts not Ds lol is NOT GONE. I just this past Thursday got a round of fillers and asked about my jowls (don’t pigs have those?) and she said that when you are my age (70+) and have lost 55 lbs they become a part of your anatomy. So sad. So my advice is don’t gain weight. Which naturally is hard to do with being married to Jack Spratt. He eats snacks constantly and never gains an ounce. It’s so not fair!
My plastic surgeon friend offered wattle removal for $13K. Yikes. I bought a NuFACE but it’s not helpful.
My dermatologist office gave me tear trough fillers and that worked. Now at least I look awesome above my mask.
Was excited to see the Kendra stuff. I love what I’ve bought already!
How was the fit for you on the Girlfriend Jeans? The reviews differed.
I have been watching your blog for about a month now! I am so impressed with the outfits you put together! I know i have not seen any thing on what kind of foundation you wear under them! I am just about the same size as you, so I would love to know your secret! Irene
You and your sister are so cute. Love those matching outfits.
That sounds fun! I love that orange sweater and didn’t see where you got it! Loved the crop jeans too but they don’t have my size. Loved the picture of you & your sister!
Happy belated birthday. New to your blog. Love your styles and Amazon
I’d never heard of Kendra Scott jewelry until your blog. I’ve not bought several pieces. It’s so pretty and most is affordable. Thanks again for introducing me to something new.
