A Few Favorites for Friday

This week we’ve been taking a breather and haven’t made much house progress… which has been good for us, but means I have no fun pictures to show you!  So I thought we’d do a little throwback to Friday Five (it’s been a while since the last one!) and do a feature post on what I’ve been loving on the blogosphere lately.

Ready for Halloween yet?  If I was dressing up I would most definitely don this cute DIY costume.  How fun is this ice cream cone attire from Kelly at Studio DIY?? 🙂  But seriously, I love it!!!

Since we’re talking Halloween…. normally, I do not like Halloween decorations (except pumpkins but those can be classified under fall), but this pineapple jack-o-lantern by Victoria at A Subtle Revelry just tickles me! I mean how funky and cute right??  Confession ~ I bought a pineapple last week to try this on… but first my cat chewed all the leaves up, then I left it too long and it imploded a juicy mess all over the counter.  Sad, sad pineapple… So I will just admire this one from the screen, who knows, there is always next year??

I am in LOVE with this new Target task lamp (that I pinned recently).  The brass and clean lines make it look so high end!!  I think it would be pretty as a floor lamp too.  I’ve seen several big bloggers featuring it lately, it seems everyone is in love!

Let’s talk layers… They are the key to a good haircut, but just how should you ask for them to be done?  I read this article on the Beauty Department recently that walks through different hair types and what layers are best suited for them.  I read Part II for curly hair, but Part I is very informative too for if you have straighter hair.

 

Happy weekend everyone!  It is supposed to be in the 70’s here in Chicago-land so I plan to enjoy this rare piece of sun and warm in late October.  🙂
