{friday 5}

Morning!

I can’t remember the last time I said morning or had a blog post publish in the am!  So, this is BIG!  Ha!

It’s been a busy week.  Hence the lack of blog posts.  Crazy thankful for my Mom + Cory who have helped me uber Bay around from school.  The pig barn.  Riding lessons.  GATE.  I couldn’t have done it without them!

Weekend plans: a trip to Madewell to shop for jeans.  You guys, I ordered the black Berkley wash, which I LOVE.  Sized down, like I always do in Madewell.  And they’re too big.  Trust me, I haven’t lost weight either…lol.  But, I do like my jeans real tight.  Anyway, the size I need is on back order till FEBRUARY 23rd.  Real life problems 🙂  Trying to convince Cory to take me to our fave pizza spot, Masullo too.  I’m craving a day in the kitchen.  Promised GG stuffed bell peppers.  Thinking meal prepping egg cups.  Spaghetti meat sauce.  And I’ve been craving a roasted tomato soup.

I could go on and on, but let’s get to 5 things on my mind……

5 things on my mind……

ONE – News // Beginning next week, you’re going to hear crickets from xoxostacyb.  I’m shutting down the blog for a solid week.  I haven’t had a week off in a really long time.  This is a good thing.  Even though you wont see anything, I’ll still be working.  Just behind the scenes.  Come Monday, September 10th you’ll see a revamped xoxostacyb.  My storage is almost maxed, which results in a huge upgrade on my end.  You’ll find a fresh new look.  And, recently I was accepted to ShopStyle.  Similar to Like to Know it.  Unfortunately, I just haven’t had the time to dig into it yet.  So don’t be alarmed when you don’t get your xoxostacyb {new post} email 🙂  I’ll be back, better than ever!

TWO –  J.Crew Sweater //  Another pre-spending freeze purchase.  I was going to save this one for a rainy day, but this sweater is so good, it’s going to sell out in no time.  Perfect for slowly transitioning to fall.  Not pictured is the cutest pair of heeled mules I’ve ever layed eyes on.  But, You’ll have to wait for those 🙂

Point Sur allover pointelle crewneck sweater – ON SALE!  $35 with code: BIGSALE.  This sweater is from the new Point Sur collection an LA made denim brand.  All the pieces are timeless.  I’m obsessed with the all-over pointelle on this sweater.  Easy breezy.  It comes in 4 great fall color options too!  I have my eye on the Loden Green.

9″ High-Rise Skinny Jeans: Seamed Step-Hem Edition – super comfy jeans.  Love the edgy detail to them.  Magic pockets.  Step hem.  And a front seam.

Madewell Bandana – Following the {third piece rule}here with this bandana.  Madewell has lots of great bandanas to pick from.  This one is similar to the one I’m wearing.
