Happy Friday & Happy November!
Oh, how I love this month.
There is so much to look forward to. The beginning of holiday festivities, Thanksgiving (!!!), my nephew's birthday and friends' birthdays, and it all culminates for us at the end of the month when my first baby turns FIVE. I can't believe it.
How are you kicking this month off? We have another low key weekend ahead and I'm so excited. Hopefully it'll be a good mix of productive, relaxing, and fun.
On to this week's Friday Five!
1. The little mermaid & the littlest mermaid. Did you have a good Halloween? Our girls had the best time trick-or-treating. The weather was absolutely perfect, our neighborhood was packed, and the candy was flowing. ;) Hadley made out the best since she's the exact height of most candy dishes -- while the adults and older kids were talking, she was busy stealthily scooping up handfuls. Ha!
2. Holiday cards. From Halloween straight to the holidays! Have you thought about your holiday cards yet? Maybe you've even ordered them! I just started browsing and there are some really fun designs. Sites I've used in the past are Simply to Impress (one of my favorites -- affordable, fast, great service!), Tiny Prints, and Minted. And don't forget, if you're going the digital route... Paperless Post has gorgeous options!
3. IT Cosmetics Sale. I've talked about my obsession with this product a few times here, but if you haven't tried it yet... now is the time! IT Cosmetics is having 25% off your purchase of $30+ through tomorrow. I'm putting together a "favorite products" post about my favorite makeup/skin care finds, and this is top of the list!
4. November Giveaway. To express my gratitude during this month of thanks for you, and your support of this space, I'll be hosting a little giveaway later this month! Keep your eye out for the announcement here on the blog, as well as over on Facebook (make sure you like The Lucky Lifestyle page, if you haven't yet!).
5. Thanks for supporting Kelly & Women Who Inspire! Thanks so much for your support of and great feedback for Kelly, our incredible October feature in the monthly Women Who Inspire series. If you missed it, you can check it out here!
Hope you have a wonderful weekend and start to the month!
We did have a good Halloween. Your girls are adorable in those Little Mermaid costumes! Glad you had nice weather going around. It's never fun when it's cold, rainy, or snowy. Happy weekend!!
ReplyDeleteWe really lucked out! Glad yours was a good one, too! Have a wonderful weekend. :)
DeleteTheir costumes are too sweet! Hope you have a wonderful low key weekend!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Biana! They were SO excited to wear them. Enjoy your weekend, too!
DeleteThey were cute little mermaids. My girls almost picked Little Mermaid too. I need to get some pore minimizer from IT Cosmetics. Thanks for the PSA.
ReplyDeleteI thought I'd see every little girl in a mermaid costume, but we only saw one other surprisingly! I'm eyeing up the pore minimizing primer from there, too. I need to pull the trigger today!
DeleteThey are so cute as mermaids! The weather was great and it was so nice not to be all bundled up. This is such a fun month with a lot to look forward to. I hope you have a great weekend! Sierra Beautifully Candid
ReplyDeleteThanks so much! Wasn't the weather amazing? Wishing you a great weekend and kickoff to November. :)
DeleteSoo pretty! I love the shiny little bindis on their foreheads too - Haddie looks so proud, bless her! That's funny about the height thing - I did see a lot of stealthy little ones on Halloween scooping up the best bits out of sight haha! I will definitely be reading Women who Inspire. At the moment It is 22:30 and I am full of bonfire food - want to read it properly tomorrow when in less of a food coma ;) Hope you had a great weekend xx
ReplyDeleteThank you!! And you're right, she was SO proud to be one of the "big" kids. She would've stayed out for hours longer if we would've allowed it, haha. And full of bonfire food?! Sounds fantastic! I hope you enjoyed the rest of your weekend and can't wait to hear what you think about October's Women Who Inspire. :) xo
