Friday Faves

Happy Friday!!! I hope you've had a great week and save yourself some time to relax this weekend. I have not  done a Friday favorites in a while so I thought I'd get back to it. As you know this week I've been blogging about music festivals so I'd thought I would continue that and make this 'Friday Faves: Music Fest Edition'.

Friday Favorites 11/4

Happy Friday! Hope you guys had fun trick-or-treating or handing out candy on Halloween! It may be November but my favorites this week revolve around the holidays. I was listening to Christmas albums before Halloween had even past!

1. Fashion
I am in LOVE with the November catalog from Free People. It's theme is 'Through the Decades' and the look below is from the 1950s.

2. Beauty
The weather is getting colder where I live and while I like it since being an Arizona native I grow tired of hot weather, the harsh coldness is not kind to your skin and dries it out. A solution is slathering some moisture rich body butter.

3. Food
Thanksgiving dinner! Yum!

4. Music
As I mentioned before, I have been listening to Christmas albums lately and it really puts me in a good mood. One of my favorites is Michael Buble's album. His voice is so amazing!! I also love A Very She & Him Christmas. Zooey Deschanel is adorable and so is her voice.

I hope this post made you anxious for the holidays!

Friday Favorites 10/28 errr

Sorry for posting a day late but I've been sick and felt to lazy to go on my computer. Anyways here are my faves.

2. Beauty
Chanel No.5 Intense Bath Oil

3. DIY Project

Friday Favorites 10/21

1. Beauty
When it comes to beauty, I love anything that accentuates the eyes. Whether it's mascara, shadows, lash curler or falsies! Paperself has some really cool eyelashes made out of paper and inspired by Japanese paper cutting.

2. Scent
Pumpkin Pie Spice is the scent that lets me know fall is really here. Check out A Wooden Nest to make your own pumpkin pie spice.

3. Food
I've always loved making different variations of grilled cheese. A couple days ago I had no idea what to have for lunch and decided on making a grilled cheese sandwich. Here is my simple recipe:

• Bread
• Cheese - which ever you like, I just used American but also love mozzarella.
• Sliced avocado
• Sliced tomato
• Mayo - I used McCormick that has lemon juice in it.

Spread the mayo on each slice of bread. Add the cheese, avocado, and tomato. On the hot skillet add butter and place the sandwich in. Flip the sandwich to toast the other side until golden brown. Enjoy!

4. Music
Fix a Heart from Demi Lovato's album Unbroken.

Nothing like capturing the moment he pops the question! What do you think of this latest fad?

Leave me your faves in the comments. Saturday and Sunday I will be posting  my top costumes for Halloween so stay tuned!

Friday Favorites 10/14

The month of October not only bring us Halloween and awesome costumes but it's also the month in which we learn more about breast cancer. Breast cancer like any other cancer has treatments that can beat cancer and can also be prevented if found early. For this weeks Friday Favorites I will be picking some products that are good on their own but also do good by giving money to breast cancer research.

Friday Favorites 10/7

Starting on this weeks Friday favorites, I will be changing up the categories in which I pick my weekly faves, just a bit.

1. Fashion: 70s Revival
I am really loving all the 70s inspired looks in department stores. Some of these items remind me of the classic show Charlie's Angels. Here are some of my favorite pieces:

I bought these recently and can't get over how cool they are!

KHAKI DOUBLE BUCKLE CAPE - Topshop

Bow Blouse - H&M

Fringe Bag - Nordstrom

2. Book: Into The Wild by Jon Krakauer

This book is really good and I really can't say more because I will spoil it! You can also watch the movie directed by Sean Penn which got a lot of critic acclaim.

3. Food: Coffee

Growing up I've never been a 'coffee girl'. I loved the scent of coffee but the bitter taste always pushed me away. I'm Mexican and as a kid the only way we kids were allowed to have coffee was with milk and sugar, known as Café con leche. To this day that's pretty much how I have coffee! I've been addicted lately to Starbucks and found the following recipe on Lauren Conrad's blog. It's her version of Starbucks Pumpkin Spice Latte which she calls 'Pumkin Spice Lala-Latte'. I can't wait to try it!

4. Music: Mumford & Sons

I've been a fan of Mumford & Sons since there album came out and recently their song 'I Gave You All' has become my most played.

5. Photo: Steve Jobs

As you all probably know Steve Jobs died recently. I can't tell you how much of an impact his genius had on people and the way they communicate with others. I'm a Mac girl and always have been. My condolences to his family and friends.

1955-2011

That's this weeks faves! Let me know yours in the comments!

Friday Favorites 9/30

As promised I will be doing weekly posts titled 'Friday Favorites'. It's basically a top 5 rundown of my favorite things at the moment. I encourage you to try this meme if you so desire! Here are my faves this week.

Friday Favorites

I've been pretty lazy about posting on this blog and thought that if I started doing a weekly thing it would help me get into the swing of blogging. I'll now be doing a weekly segment called Friday Favorites. I got the idea from Lauren Conrad's blog.
