Friday Faves
Hi friends! Happy Friday! Whatโs going on this weekend? I still canโt believe weโre back into the weekend. This week FLEW BY, which was ok with me, because it was a crazy one. It feels like one of those weeks where we were busy every second, but when I look back, Iโm not quite sure what happened. Iโm just trying to get time to slow the heck down because the girls are growing so.fast and our time in Tucson is blazing past me. Finding a house in Valdosta has put a little pep in my step -I loooooooove decorating new spaces!- and Iโve already started to talk to some gyms and studios about teaching. It will be nice to settle into a routine one day, but for now, weโre just doing our thing and enjoying.
What are you up to this weekend?? The Pilot and I are going out for dinner + drinks one night, Iโm working with Grant to film an upcoming barre challenge (I hope youโll join in the fun! Iโll share more details soon), and weโll be hanging out outside and by the pool. I hope you have an amazing weekend.
For now, here are some faves from the week and around the web. I always love to hear about your faves, too, if youโd like to shout them out in the comments section!
(Love this picture of the two of them. It was during lunch at my momโs house, and I asked them to smile and P buried her head next to her sis in the sweetest little way.)
This made me cry laughing. 21, 23, 26, and 33 made me laugh the hardest.
Excellent comments in this post.
You are more than a meal plan.
Non-cheesy motivational quotes.
Current uniform: black nikes, black tank dress, cargo jacket (similar), giant sunnies to hide my lack of makeup.
What to do if you donโt love fitness.
50 thoughts you might have during yoga.
Still LOVING this brand of bone broth. Itโs savory, delicious, and perfect warmed in a mug at the end of the day.
The tiered Shopbop sale is heeeeeeere. I always look forward to this one, and itโs such a great opportunity to get gorgeous designer pieces for way less.
Here are some of my Spring faves from the sale:
Dresses:
Obsessed with this embroidered dress– kind of similar to this one I recently got in a Stitch Fix. Love this one, too.
Wishing this one was like $500 less expensive haha
Love this crochet dress
Tanks and tops:
Shorts:
Swimsuits + coverups:
Off-shoulder floral one piece (this would be SO CUTE with denim shorts to and from the beach/poolโฆ with a big floppy hat. AHH)
Activewear:
Happy Friday, friends!! Iโll be back later this weekend with a meal plan post + my workouts from the week.
xoxo

Yay, I’m excited about the Barre challenge!
If it doesn’t rain this weekend, we’re taking our little guy to a kite festival, but the forecast looks gloomy, so we shall see!
ahhh hope you have a great weekend!
excited you’ll be joining in the challenge, too
Hi Gina! Happy weekend! I hope you enjoy the warmth! I’m here visiting Chicago, and my face is frozen. But I like it hahaha! Is it bad to online shop on vacation? Because your choices from ShopBop are calling to me. Also thank you SO much for sharing my post about what to do if you don’t love fitness. Love ya, gal! ๐ Have a great time with the Pilot, girlies and Grant hahha!!
hahaha! we will. it’s always an adventure ๐
and yes, totally ok to online shop on vacay. please eat ALL THE GARRETT’S POPCORN for me
Happy Friday Gina! Loved your entire outfit in the picture.
thank you, friend! happy friday ๐
I love your style so much! But….I must say that you are killing me with all of the adorable summer clothes! (Not really, just making me overly excited for Spring/Summer) hahahaha. It is going to hit 40 degrees here in Steamboat this week and maybe I will bust out some short sleeves for a run ๐
ahhh i can’t wait for spring/summer clothes! i always feel like a goober dressing myself in the winter (which really isn’t even that cold)
Oh…the girls are just too sweet in the pic! Is it just me or has P suddenly become a mini Liv? So big already! And I loved Ashley’s post this week too. It’s easy to forget how hard it is for some to start a healthy habit.
right?! it happened so quickly
That photo of the girls….. adorable. Livi’s eyes ~ oh my!! P’s lil pony tail sticking straight out. HA!! ๐
they are quite the pair ๐
That picture gave me all the feels! How cute! My husband has an old Army friend coming to town for the weekend, so I’m sure we’ll be crazy busy all weekend eating all the food and going to all the breweries in Orlando!
awww hope you enjoy orlando! if you find any good new spots, please let me know!
I am excited about the barre challenge! Maybe I can teach my Xtend Barre teachers a thing or two. ๐ Either that, or tell them “the Fitnessista said…” Send any and all house rental finding tips my way. I can use some of your house hunting prowess.
that would be amazing!!
ahhh rental houses. i’m basically just a stalker. i would stalk zillow and any local property management companies
Thanks! I know to stalk Zillow. I’ll start familiarizing myself with local property management companies, too. I’m also shouting from the rooftops, so to speak, and my friends in those neighborhoods know to ask their neighbors for me. Have a great weekend with your fam!
okay i see that bathing suit and all i can think is “omg but the tan lines…”
also i found this article to be very interesting: http://www.mindbodygreen.com/0-29096/how-to-heal-your-adrenals-thyroid-from-an-eating-disorder.html
yes, the tan lines might be a little crazy, but worth it
loved the article, too. such great tips for LIFE, let alone healing an imbalance
have a happy weekend
That buzz feed post is hilariouz. Coffee time or wine time… because it’s one or the other. Thanks for sharing.
hahah there is no in between
Ooh I’m excited about the barre challenge!! Really enjoyed WSU and am sort of repeating it again (best laid plans…) but I’m looking forward to a new challenge ๐ That picture of Liv and P is so cute!!
This weekend I’m looking forward to trying out a crepe place (YUM) that I’ve been wanting to go to for awhile, and meeting up with an old friend. I’ll also be finishing up wedding invitations and hopefully getting them in the mail – our wedding is 3 months from today, eek!!
yay, so excited you’ll be joining in!!
enjoy the weekend, too. it sounds like a good one! so excited for you and your upcoming wedding <3
Looking forward to the barre challenge! I’ve been wanting to add barre into my fitness. This will be a good way to try it out!
omg I want that embroidered dress!!!!
Excited about the Barre video! I loved that post from Hummusapien, too! I can definitely relate to it. Hope you guys have a great weekend!
Woah that one piece would leave you with a very unique tan line- HAH! I love that off the shoulder ruffled top. I’m so into off the shoulder lately!
fit and fab! yes this post is what it is all about! thank you <3 good luck on the Bare challenge and hmmm that broth looks interesting.
