Happy Friday!!! Are you all Amazon primed and ready for the Easter Bunny. HAHAHA! I crack myself up. But seriously, did you get any goodies from Amazon to fill those baskets? I am turning into a daily shopper on there. I remember about 18 months ago, I wasn’t familiar with it at.all. What??? Anyway (if you watch my insta-stories then you know I over use that word), this is not an Amazon post it’s just a good old Friday Favorites post. I do however have plans for an Amazon post soon.
But first, a little Easter humor.
I just love it when I stumble upon a good deal and this week I decided to take a stroll through Target and see what I could find that I didn’t need. I was so excited to see the BOGO signs in the shoe department. Target has some of the cutest sandals out for us girls. I loved getting Katie’s shoes there when she was a tot and now they’ve got so many great styles for us. YES! These are some of my picks and I also spotted this adorable rainbow woven bag. Perfect for spring and summer.
Did you catch my Insta-story yesterday? Are you an Insta-story watcher? Good grief, I am. I love hearing what people sound like. They just suck me right in and I feel like I know all these people personally. (Follow me here) Anyway (there’s that word again) I shared this outfit yesterday afternoon after I had spent a little time worshipping the sun. (no not literally…just catching some rays) The first leggings I purchased were these from Soma. They are so GOOD! I love my Zella leggings and my new Meadowlark leggings (see them here), but these leggings are like wearing your own skin. Does that sound weird? They have a nice high waist and they’re actually called “slimming leggings”. The material is not cottony so shirts don’t cling. I have 4 pairs if that tells you anything. And they’re currently on sale for 30% off. I just recently ordered this top from Soma too. It is perfect for those days when you’re just hanging out and I plan to wear it for travel. It’s super soft, think Gibson fleece soft. It’s also great when you have visitors or go somewhere that you don’t want to sit around in your pj’s. And my flip flops get an honorable mention. They are my all time favs. I’m on pair #2 and getting ready to order a replacement for them.
I’ve been trying to find this highlighter palette for a couple of weeks and finally found when I was in Target…after I finished looking at shoes.?It’s from the same line as my new eyebrow pencil from a previous Friday Favorites (that I’m also totally loving). Have you heard of Milani? I think it’s pretty new, but it seems to be pretty popular. I used it for the first time yesterday, mostly as eye shadow and let’s just say, I’m a total fan. I’ve used my highlighter as eye shadow forever and this one does beautifully! I even had a friend stop me yesterday and ask me what I had on. So there ya’ go. It’s good!
If you saw my Mother’s Day gift guide post on Monday, then you might remember I had a cell phone stand on it. Guess who couldn’t wait? You got it. ME! I ordered it and it was here the next day. It.is.awesome!!! Definitely worth the $10.99.
I just got this new black ruffle sleeve top from Amazon this week. Isn’t it just too cute? I wasn’t sure how I’d feel about it, but I really like it. Ruffles are always iffy for me and since these are a little bigger, I was worried they’d overwhelm my frame. I originally ordered a medium and it was too big, so I reordered my usual small and it’s so much better. It’s made really well, a polyester type fabric and not see through. It also comes in a pretty burgundy.
And let’s just bookend this Friday Favorites with a little more Easter humor. These are too cute not to share.

You are so funny, you crack me up too! My stand arrived last night and I haven’t even had a chance to take it out of the box yet but I am pumped about using it! Those ruffles are adorable on you – super cute! Have a hoppy Easter (see? I’m funny too!)

I just added that stand to my cart. I have one for my mini ipad that I keep in my kitchen to quickly look up a recipe or play music while I’m cooking or meal prepping.

I can never resist the shoes from Target…just bought a pair of sandals in bright pink and can’t wait for the weather to warm up so I can wear them!!!
I’m with you, Lisa….I just adore the IG stories more than anything. It’s like real life, and way more fun!!
Have a wonderful weekend,
XOXO

LOL at that last Easter Egg meme about kids being able to find things when they really want to. STORY of my life. Something is always “Lost” until I go looking for it! Anyway (oh great…now I’m doing it! ha!!) I love your Soma outfit! It looks so cute and comfy. And your new cell phone stand! I have a black one like yours but hello…the rose gold is way cuter!

Don’t I know it. I remember that with my kids too. It’s laying right there and they can’t find it. LOL The Soma lounge wear is wonderful. XO
Mireille says
Fun post! I love that shirt (but I am not buying any more clothes right now) and that phone stand too. Might get the stand this summer since I want to start doing stories regularly for instagram this summer! Love those funnies too! Humor is always good for the soul!

Hey pretty lady ! No offense, I deleted my instagram ( feeling insecure and frustrated) I decided to delete it for a few weeks. Hoping to get out of my little rut that I’m in. I always feel a love hate with Instagram – but missing ladies like you, Laura and Andrea !! Also, I have that iPhone stand an it’s perfect ! I also prop my iPad mini on it too. You are always such delight and thanks for stopping by my blog.
Lisa Richardson says
Love/Hate with Instagram is totally understandable. I think WE ALL feel like that. It’s such a necessary evil. XOXO
Jill says
I think I need that cell phone stand for my desk! Your Soma outfit looks so cute and comfy! I need to try those leggings! I’m also loving your ruffle sleeve top! Looks like I have some shopping to do! 🙂 Have a wonderful weekend!

I did buy some slime for my daughter on Amazon for some Easter basket fillers. I am going to pin that top and those leggings! I saw your IG story and I was like… that’d be the perfect outfit to wear for out loooong flight to Maui!!!! Gonna pin that highlighter palette, although… I’m not sure I’d know how to use it.

Oh my gosh, yes, that would be the perfect outfit for your Maui flight! Are y’all flying Hawaiian Air. They are a super airline!
Carrie @ Curly Crafty Mom says
We are flying American Airlines, I just checked!

I have heard of Milani before! I love their baked blushes. They have a really pretty coral color that is perfect for summer! That palette you got is gorgeous!
Lisa Richardson says
I ordered one…Come to think of it I haven’t gotten it…but it might be at my neighbors. They were collecting my packages. Better check.
NancysFashionStyle says
Enjoy your Easter weekend!
Lisa Richardson says
Thank you Nancy!
Jess says
I think I’ve seen Milani for a long time, like since college at least (so 10 years ago YIKES). But maybe this is another thing unique to the East Coast, like Five Below! 😀 You found some great spring-y things at Target! Hope you have a wonderful weekend and Easter, Lisa! xoxo
Lisa Richardson says
You would know I’d be behind on Milani. HA! Happy Wednesday sweetie! XO
