The Friday Five
Happy Friday from 30k feet! I'm wrapping up this post en route to a bachelorette weekend to celebrate my sister's wedding next month. #aintechnologygrand Pop over to InstaGram or Facebook to see where we landed if you want. Here's a random roundup for this Friday Five.
1) I'm wearing this uber-comfy, but still pulled-together, outfit for traveling. I swear this dress feels like pajamas...it's lightweight so I don't overheat waiting for the captain to turn on the air, but stay covered when he decides to turn it on arctic blast. Honestly, are there only two temperatures on an airplane?!
I managed to pack four days worth of stylish outfits in a single carry-on (see my tips here and here)...I'll post some on InstaGram in the next few days, but will share here soon, too.
Patterned Maxi Dress | Jean Jacket | Strappy Sandal Tassel Bracelets | Pendant Necklace | Aviators | Striped Monogram Bag | Camera
2) You know that I participated in the {One Room Challenge} with 19 other bloggers every Wednesday (see the complete list here), but did you know almost 150 other talented bloggers linked up with Linda on Thursdays? I'm only about half way through the list of pure eye-candy, but here are some of my favorites so far...
{Pretty Practical Home}
3) North Texas has gone from drought to drowning in the last month...seriously, I'm checking Pinterest on how to DIY an ark. We started out thinking it was great and saying things like, 'Oh yes, we really needed this rain!' Now I'm just over it, and ready for hot, dry Summer! World Market's new outdoor collection isn't making it any easier...I'm ready for picnics and backyard decorating! Just click each pic for item link...fancy, right?!

4) So of course all that Summer wishful thinking got me dreaming of swimsuits, cover-ups, and cute pool/beach bags. I prefer to have a cover-up that passes for street clothes so you can transition easily without being totally exposed. I have these exact flip-flops, and the brand is hands-down my very favorite...so squishy!

Same goes for the guys...Mr. SP wears board shorts that look like regular clothes when paired with a shirt. I've got him hooked on Havianas, too. He's had one pair for 5 years...those suckers last forever! I think I may snag this cap for myself.

5) Okay, so I started out pretty casual about this whole 'Top 25 Finalist' thing in Redbook's Real Women Style Awards...just shocked flattered to be included. But in the last few days, a couple of the other nominees have launched some kind of intense campaign, and they are waaaay ahead of me!
So now my competitive nature has kicked in, and I want it!! Or at least I want to know I gave it a good Texas-try. My mom's daily vote isn't getting it done. ;) So if you're a fan of my style and inspired by the style posts, then please, please, please hop over and vote for me. #Illbeyourbestfriend It's super simple...just scroll down and click my pic. Once it opens, click the little gray heart in the bottom right corner...and done!
Thank you so, so much, and happy weekend, lovebugs!
