Gladiators

 First off, thank you to all who participated in our first giveaway! Congrats to our winner and we hope you have an amazing date with yo man ;) 

So we had a MAJOR melt down this weekend…  

Norman Reedus has cancelled! I repeat:

NORMAN FREAKIN REEDUS HAS CANCELLED SLC COMICON.

 For those of you who are scratching your head right now, he is the very delicious Daryl on The Walking Dead television series. It is the only reason we were planning on attending with the other characters being a bonus. It seriously was going to be amazing watching Jamie losing her cool while drooling as he stood in front of her. . Seriously. People may not know anything about her but they all seem to know of her love for NR. And that's it ha ha...They better make it up to us by replacing him with Justin Timberlake. There really is no other option. 

-sad face emoji, sad face emoji, no kissy face emoji for Jamie

In the meantime.. Maybe THIS will ease the pain.

Anyway..

They came! They are more glorious that I could of imagined! I just want to run down the street and yell something crazy looking barbaric! No seriously you guys… I L-O-V-E them. Meaning my Gladiators of course! I ended up going with these faux leather cut out gladiators by Breckelles. At $27 shipped I am 100% happy with this purchase. Remember THESE boots I posted about on our first Favsie Friday? They are by Breckelles so I TOTALLY trusted that even at this low price they would be fantastic quality. I was right! YES! 

Aren't they amazing? And they aren't uncomfortable either! I've been thinking about how to style them without wearing short skirts or shorts. They are darling when paired with those but that is not an option for me. I'm not sure how these would look with Bermuda shorts :/ ... I'll get back to you on that. So for now I figured bohemian style skirts and dresses, high-low dresses, and..... skinnies. Yes, skinnies. I stumbled up this by accident and it totally worked. It might not with every style of gladiators but it definitely did with these!  

There ya have it babes! Conclusion is, I'm in love. I'm going to find ways to rock these all summer and maybe even buy another color! 

P.S. I'm SO happy with them, I got in an abandoned grocery cart and laughed about it... Seriously you guys I wanted to take this cart home. Someone spray painted it half gold and when I saw it we had instant chemistry. Instant. So I jumped in and captured the moment so I could always remember how happy I was about my new shoes and and a gold grocery cart.

Favsies Friday & A Giveaway!

Hey babes! Guess what? It's Favsies Friday! Part deuce!  Today is all about a favorite date night and boy do we have some sweetness for you and your honey buns! 

So how many of you have about this  [ ]  much time for dates? I know for me between …

-waiting for the hubs to get home from work so I can leave my army of destruction for one minute to get all fancy

-and the babysitting meeter that ticks away each minute we are gone

I sometimes need a speed date. And I have the perfect place to have one! With one man though..minus the other 47 that are on speed dates. What do we do you ask?  Well just have yourself a seat honey and let me tell you all about the Movie Grille!

The Movie Grille is a hot spot located downtown Ogden, Utah right by cozy little historic 25th St.

It is a movie theater / restaurant. You can either go enjoy their food in a traditional restaurant fashion or you can go eat AND enjoy a movie at the same time. Thats right friends.. What would normally take you about four hours, you can accomplish in about two!

Lets talk food. I honestly thought that in an establishment like this I would be trying to watch a movie while some lady with a menu would be distracting and and the food would be greasy pizza and a sub par burger. That couldn't be further from the truth. I barely even noticed the waitress And. You. Guys… They even do presentation with their food on their cute white rectangular plates! It was gourmet. I had the Balsamic Chicken Sandwich and It blew my mind. Seriously. I love that freakin sandwich! Their prices are very reasonable allowing you to also take the whole fam in for lunch and a movie should you choose. We have. It was awesome. 

The Movie Grille is so awesome that they have decided to giveaway two pairs of movie tickets to our followers!

Spring Steals

 I joined up with www.sassysteals.com to photograph their newest items for spring.  The Aztec-Egyptian pencil is the perfect skirt for our off & on warm weather.  I know we are all loving the maxi-skirt, but have you tried the pencil skirt in the same fabric?   It's THE most comfortable thing next to the maxi, but looks a smidge dressier.  Love.  Love.  Love.  Whitney added an Express top & the jacket is from JCPenney. 
And guess what?  The skirt just went on sale in 3 colors,  HERE!

Next up-one of my faves!  It's the Amelia Hi-lo belted dress.  Any excuse to where leggings and I'm in heaven.  This cute fabric lays perfectly so its always flattering & I'm dying over the black and gold belt.  Whitney's cute boots are  JCPenney  & added a Charming Charlie's gold necklace.  
The Sephora girl in me is in love with her bright red lips.  No, this trend is not going away anytime soon.  So buck up, go in, and find your perfect shade of bold lipstick.

**Recommendation alert- Try Bite.  You can't go wrong, especially if your lips are dry & cracked.  Just try it.
