Friday Faves
Happy Friday and Happy Halloween! Any fun plans tonight? Weโre off to a friendโs party later today, and Iโm trying to think of a fun activity for this morning.
(Bell is thankful to not be reliving the hot dog shame again this year.)
Some faves from the week and around the web:
The Kale Yeah shirt orders. Thank you so much for helping me support Fed by Threads with these cute and comfy sustainable tees. So far, weโve provided the funds for just under 1,000 meals! That is INCREDIBLE. I would love to make it to 2,000!! Orders will close on Monday <3
Livโs Halloween manicure. She asked me to paint her nails, so I Halloween-ified them a little.
Waterfall braids. Itโs been my go-to hairstyle this week, especially since I like to air dry my hair. Iโll waterfall braid it, and it will dry wavy.
Dinner at Bo-Beau Kitchen. Always a fave and my favorite San Diego restaurant Iโve tried since weโve been here. Their salmon is INSANE, and we usually wash it down with the mรฉnage ร trois dessert: peanut brittle with chocolate ganache, cheesecake with a berry swirl, and mint chocolate mousse.
Having a rough day? Try this Kanye confidence generator. ๐
5 mom-shaming trends that need to stop.
Been scoping out these booties! Iโve been looking for a grey pair and think theyโd be an awesome everyday option.
Park dates with this little lady.
Jim Carreyโs spoof of the Matthew McConaughey commercial.
Caroโs spider neckerchief. (The โrub my bellyโ eyes are always a fave.)
An 86-year-old gymnast proving age is just a number.
A yoga Instagram challenge for November.
Jungle java. This is a fun little spot on Newport, with great breakfast menu (they have acai bowls and the couple across from me shared French toast with nutella), and ALMOND MILK. I enjoyed my green tea almond milk latte next to the succulent wall.
A history of womenโs clothing sizes.. and how the heck they got so out of whack.
Kelly Clarksonโs version of โShake It Off.”
Enjoy the rest of your day and Happy Halloween! Be safe tonight. <3

love that braid!
Awesome links here, I am off to check out the kelly clarkson one! Did you see the video on my post on monday (butternut squash quesadillas?), you will LOVE it! So cute, and yes, age is just a number!
Oh my, all of your faves are now my faves! Especially Liv’s manicure, the Kale Yeah shirts, and your waterfall braid. I need to practice that one because mine never turn out!
Love the braid! I wish I could do that to my hair. And I have to tell you, I did the HIIT/Barre workout and lived it!! Your workouts never disappoint.
I couldn’t help but giggle at all the ridiculous Kanye-fidence. ahahah. And that waterfall braid is absolutely gorgeous!
My husband showed me the Jim Carrey video earlier this week and I just about died!!!! It’s SO funny! I cannot wait til Dumb and Dumber To comes out! ๐
Happy halloween!
I can’t believe how big Liv is getting! She’s not a baby anymore, or even a toddler! I’m sure you’re enjoying her different phases.
Love the braid, all the succulents and Livi’s Halloween nails ๐ Happy Halloween!
I love that braid! I am SO bad with my hair- I dont know how to do anything!
Happy Halloween!
I’m scoping out this pair of grey booties: LOVE! http://www.zappos.com/french-connection-livvy
Loving the booties. Nordstrom is the Whole Foods of clothes. Steals all my money every time. Happy Halloween girl!
Haha that is so true. Happy Halloween!!
I adore your waterfall braid – beautiful!! We’ve been loving getting outdoors and to the park lately too. It’s finally cooling down around here! Have fun with Livi tonight!
Sorry…but those boots are awful.

Ahh I like the anthro ones even better! Thanks for sending the link ๐
Happy Halloween to you and your little poodie!
The clothing size link was a good read! Thank you!
Love the booties and park dates are the best!!
Happy Halloweeeeeeen!!!!!
1) Livi asking for a manicure… I mean… cuteness overload! Can’t she just stay a wittle baybeeee?!
2) I would do a lot of questionable things to have the amount of hair you do! *swoon!*
I love the braid! Can you do a tutorial? I can never figure out how to do it!
I love the waterfall braid look but I have never tried it – it looks so complicated! I am completely a wash and go kinda girl so I plan to give this a go after I watch your tutorial!
Pretty braid! Enjoy your Halloween. ๐
You are pretty good with your braids! I love the look of that, but am not sure I could achieve it on my own hair. Hope you have a great weekend! Happy Halloween:)
I love your braid!
That hot dog costume is awesome!! At least your pup looks slightly happier than mine when I put him in Halloween getups haha.
And thanks for sharing the Kanye-fidence – truly amazing!
Girl, I would kill for your hair! And Caroline’s “rub my belly” eyes just melt my heart.
I’ve never been able to braid my own hair!
What a cute little hot dog! I can never find a costume that fits my dog. How did you come up with the waterfall braid? It’s so cute!
So cute! Looks like so much fun! (BTW told my husband about the Livi-isms and he LOVED it)
Hi!! Still loving your blog!! Thank you. You’ve changed my ability to work out at home. I was always used to the classes at the gym and then moved to San Diego with a young child and a husband who is often at work. The garage has become my friend. Any plans on a November work out schedule. Pretty please! ๐
Holy perfect hair-do. I am so envious of your glorious, thick, luscious locks! My hair is so thin and sparse that even if I had the mad skills to do a braid like that, it probably wouldn’t even work.
Also, that trio of desserts looks just like absolute heaven. I need to try to come up with a recipe for all of them! First up the mint chocolate mousse.
I’m loving that succulent wall. Wish I could grow succulents that lovely, but my dark apartment has foiled all my plant aspirations.
