Bad Ace

Ryan pointed out this dress at the Loft outlet during my birthday shopping trip, he said that it was leopard print and therefore it was very "Bri." I just love the way guys think out fashion. I tried it on and of course it was a perfect fit {with sleeves, SCORE...we know how I love finding modest dresses}. Plus it was originally $80 and I got it for $16, now that is my kind of shopping. I guess my husband just knows me a little too well.

And let me also introduce you to my new favorite tights from Francesca's Collections: they are fuzzy on the inside, super thick & a total necessity for cold weather layering. Then I paired them with Ryan's not-so-favorite bad ace spiked wedges from Shoedazzle. I think he is so used to me dressing all girly that when I bust out my black leather jacket and spiked shoes he doesn't know how to respond..."Who the heck did I marry?!" At least that's what I'm assuming he thinks ;)

The Makings of a Good Day

Today has been a pretty awesome day, if I do say so myself. After 7 weeks of disgusting rats nest hair, I finally got myself a haircut from my favorite stylist Nicole at Amara Day Spa. I brought her my extensions that I haven't worn since my wedding day {I know, shame on me} so she could teach me how to take care of and what to do with them. She clipped them in my hair, curled me all up, and I felt like a Disney princess!

I made my way on over to Target to do a return and peruse the store {peruse aka what cute things do I feel like I need?} I used my Target & Starbucks gift cards that I won in an Instagram giveaway, and treated myself! I just love meandering Target just for the heck of it and getting stuff I don't need. Woot woot!

I brought home Caramel Apple Spices for Ryan & I, we did some home fix-ups and I put together my mom's birthday box {feelin' very productive.} And now we are planning on hitting up the pumpkin patch tonight and grabbing dinner! It feels SO nice to not have any major tests or projects hanging over my head after the chaos at school this past week. Plus I'm lookin' forward Halloween festivities, Ryan's birthday, and the Harvest Your Fashion at Francesca's blogger party! Yes, it's been a very good day :)

chillin' with the mexican frog witch

Yes.

That is a Mexican frog with a witch hat on my front porch.

Talk about Halloween spirit! :D

Question.

What do young & fun married people do for Halloween??

We are past the stage of dressing like skanks & going to dance parties 

and we are not yet to the point of trick-or-treating with the future midgets. 

Are we stuck to passing out candy to the kidlets of the neighborhood?

Or do we throw a Halloween party?

Chill and watch Halloween movies {Nightmare Before Christmas and Hocus Pocus} whilst making pumpkin flavored goodies?

Keep me posted my friends.

What are you all doing for Halloween? 

a busy weekend

This weekend my brother and our friend, Holmeses came into town from So-Cal!

We had to drag them along with our BFF Callie on over to Texas de Brazil so they could experience the amazing-ness for themselves.

Melt in your mouth deliciousness!

I asked Ryan to take a picture with me {you know, his eternal wife and bestest friend}

 and he wasn't amused.

Then he decided to do a double chin to RUIN my picture.

Noooowwwww we got it right :)

And of course, Evan the brother and I!

We have had a busy weekend!
