Fab Finds Friday: 5 Things I'm Obsessing Over

I tumbled last month 10 Things I’m Obsessing Over Right Now and ever since i’ve had friends asking me to do it again. So i decided to parlay it into a weekly blog feature for Fridays. Just a list of new fab finds i’ve purchased or placed on my lust list.

1. Margarita Bloom: I’m a huge fan of the Hollywood Glam period & retro World War II pin-up looks in addition to my notorious fascination with lotions & potions. Being that Margarita Bloom is a little of both, they were made for me! Their bath line is so luxe, all organic and super fragrant. I got a goody bag full of Margarita Bloom products at my friend Kelley’s bridal shower last month and i’m already addicted. My faves thus far: Appletini Body Glow, Lola Strawberries & Champagne Bath Bliss, Milk & Mango Nirvana Bath Soak, and the Spells & Bells Luxury Cream. Don’t you just love the names?!



2. Jouer tinted moisturizer & bronzer: It’s pre-tan season Ladies! I switched to tinted moisturizers a few years ago, but Jouer’s new line is my new absolute fave. I love their Luminizing Moisture Tint in Glow. It’s featherlight, has an spf & leaves my skin looking dewey. But my must-have Jouer cosmetic is their Hydrating Bronzer. Ah-mazing. It’s so lightweight, silky & makes you look naturally sunkissed. 


3. Vestique Jewelry: Absolutely adore their Summer accessories. Their pieces are bold, unique & so much fun. Bonus: they’re shockingly inexpensive! The pieces i’ve bought so far are: Life Of The Party Necklace, Won’t You BEad Mine Necklace, and Stepping Stone Earrings. I get so many compliments whenever i wear their pieces. The Ivory Coast Necklace & Light As A Feather Earrings are def on my lust list. So cute!!


4. Floppy Beach Hat: Jeff & I won’t be at the beach until the end of June, but pool & lake season is around the corner. I don’t dare make an appearance at either without a great beach hat. As much as i covet a summer tan, sun on my face is a no-no. Last month i ordered the Grandstand hat from Vineyard Vines, but also love these beauties:


5. I’m all about wedges this season. I found these linen slingback espadrille wedges a couple of weeks ago while shopping with my Mom at Talbots. Perfect for nights out & weekends and they’re super comfortable. I bought them in Dark Sweet Almond, but love the Nantucket Navy too. The peep toe with a bow is just darling!


Let me know what you think & tell me about what you’re crushing on lately. Have a terrific weekend y’all!

Loving the blog!

How did I not know about Vestique? What cool stuff!

Thank you Ladies for stopping by & commenting. I really appreciate it!

Southern: Can't go wrong with classic aviators. Ever. The wedges are so comfortable & they look so much like these Prada's i was drooling over, but realistically affordable haha.

Olive: Thanks doll! I just found out ab Vestique a few months ago. Can you believe the prices?? Crazy awesome find! I bought 2 of their adorable dresses as well. Love them!

Oooo! I'm loving on that stuff too! I love the pinup glam, and as far as Vestique is concerned, you had me at "inexpensive!" Another current love of mine is O.N.E. Passion Fruit coconut water - tastes like a day at the beach.

I know-i couldn't believe the prices when i first found them. Obviously it's not fine jewelry, but it's not cheap looking either. I'm a fan for sure!

I haven't gotten on the coconut water bandwagon yet, but here so many great things all the time. I think i've been missing out. Thanks for the recommendation-i'll try it!
