Did you know that this past month has been the wettest May on record? Seriously - the most it has ever rained in May since they started keeping track! And while it might rain a little this morning I'm trying to keep in mind that on Sunday they're predicting weather in the low 80's.
We're fixing the grill this weekend even if it kills us!! I'm planning on making a nice pasta salad and a lovely refreshing dessert - which I'll probably post as my Sunday Tutorial/ Recipe. I've only done one recipe on here so far, but this dessert deserves some recognition! (No worries, it'll be crazy-easy.)
Today I rounded up one of my favorite colors to wear: Coral
Coral is a lovely mix of orange and pink and it's one of the few colors that compliments my skin. If there's any color in my skin at all this color compliments it. I hope to find some coral pieces this summer. I've been working on a slow and steady self tanner regimen and luckily it's turning into a nice bronze color and shows no signs of coppery orange. The down side is that it smells awful. I have yet to find a great facial tanner so if anyone has some tips, I'm all ears!!

Ah the Maxi dress. When I see Maxi dresses I think of them as Sunburn-Wear because these are PERFECT to wear if you have an uncomfortable sunburn. Trust me, I know from experience. I like #2 because it's simple and it looks very comfortable. I really like #3 because of the lace detailing. It's a very pretty shirt - go ahead and click the link to see it bigger - the detailing is lovely. #4 I would pair with a nice white tee underneath because that's just me. I like this tunic because I think it wouldn't resemble maternity wear like most tunics do. It seems to have a nice fit. And of course #5 we have Toms. I will own Toms this year. Do you hear me, Internet? Oh yes, I'm purchasing them this year. And #6 we have some nice coral jewelry and since it's from Forever 21 you know it's affordable. And lastly the go to flower cardigan from Downeast Basics. I have two of them and I'm wearing my black one right now.
I love coral - it's such a summery color!
And of course, Fridays wouldn't be Fridays without the mention of shoes....

These Steve Maddens made me gasp. GASP, I tell you! They're so hot, there are no words! They're the entire reason I decided to search for coral today just so I could display their beauty!
In no way can I afford these shoes. But they're just so magnificent I couldn't help myself, so I swoon.
This past weekend on there was a SATC marathon, which of course, I watched and even though I've seen all of them, sometimes a great quote just slips past you. Luckily there are marathons to remind you of gems like these:
"The fact is, sometimes it's really hard to walk in a woman's shoes. That's why we need really special ones now and then to make the walk a little more fun."
Oh Carrie, so true. I kid you not, if there were a "printable" of that quote to frame, it'd be hanging in my closet...tonight.

Well that's all for today. This Sunday's project will be food related so if you're on the hunt for a nice refreshing and easy dessert, make sure to stop by! (Note: I didn't say nutritional or healthy...don't hold me to that.)
Have a fabulous weekend!!!
Love Steve Maddens
