It’s Fri-yay friends and I’m going to let you in on a little secret. I have been confused all week about what day it is. Kent and I traveled on Monday and it threw off the whole week, then throw in that I’ve been on Eastern and Central time for two weeks and my internal clock is completely screwed up. I’m sleepy by 8:00 at night and waking up by 4:00 in the morning. Hopefully a few more days and I’ll get back to normal…just in time to “fall back” and gain an hour. LOL #whydoweevenhavedaylightsavingstime
Enough about me, let’s get to this weeks Friday Favorites and see what flipped my switch.
Do you have trouble finding lipsticks you like? I do. My lips are a weird color and I have to prime them before adding any color to them. I hate buying a new lipstick only to try it once and find it’s a funky color on me. I received a sample size Stila Stay All Day Liquid Lipstick in one of my Birchbox boxes and I am loving it. It has some real staying power. I found a couple on clearance on the Rack website and ordered this one in ‘Angelo’ and it’s a great neutral in a matte finish. My other favorite long wear liquid lip color is a Kat Von D and it wears like iron too.

For Kent’s birthday I got him some Polo cologne. I know I may be showing my his age and it’s kinda old fashion, but it’s still good stuff. He wore this many moons ago and it’s always been a favorite of mine. He’s also a cologne sponge and fragrances seem to disappear easily, but Polo hangs in there for hours.
Get your man some here…
Before leaving for my trip I placed an order at Old Navy and the stuff was finally here when I got home. Is it just me or is shipping from ON and Loft sloooow? I ordered these new Rockstar jeans with a cute little slit detail at the ankle, and this smocked floral shirt that both Shelly and Kellyann had and I loved. The burgundy color is sold out, but it comes in a white floral and is on sale for $9.97 with and additional 30% off. #dirtcheap
These jeans are good, like really good. Rockstar jeans are so comfortable and come in a great variety of styles, colors, distressed and non-distressed. Something for everyone and such a great price point.
Kellyann and I also took advantage of the Nickel & Suede Buy 1 Give 1 promotion last month and each bought a different pair of earrings and then swapped our extra pairs so we both got two new colors. #smartthinking The blush ones (size medium) are what she ordered and they look like they were made to go with this top and I guess we weren’t the only people who loved them, because #theysoldout I am developing quite a collection of N&S earrings. They are so comfortable, lightweight and cute. You can’t go wrong.
Here are my favorites…
P.S. I’m wearing the new Stila Liquid Lip in this picture.
Last month Rodan + Fields launched a new product that is taking the beauty industry by storm. I don’t know if you’ve ever noticed that Rodan + Fields doesn’t advertise, but that’s because we don’t have to. Our products are sold through word of mouth. They actually used to be in high-end department stores like Nordstrom and when the Dr’s realized it wasn’t the women behind the counters selling them, but customers were telling their friends, they took them out of the stores and began marketing through direct sales.
? Why am I so excited about this product??
✨ it’s a Derma-cosmetic (a product with skincare benefits that also delivers a radiant, even-toned complexion)
✨ it doesn’t clog pores
✨ it doesn’t cause acne
✨ it’s oil-free
✨ it has an SPF of 30
✨ it’s super lightweight
✨ it protects skin from the environment, like pollution and dirt and from UVA/UVB rays
I believe in this so much that I am sharing my naked face with you. Here’s my before and after using Radiant Defense in Sand.
I’ve been wearing the Radiant Defense for a few days and I love it. I’ve never been a foundation wearing kind of girl, but this is lighter, goes on easily and is good for my skin. I typically have an oily T-zone and I was worried this might add to that, and I’ve been pleasantly surprised that that has not been an issue.
Here are a few more before and afters
And here’s why we don’t have to advertise, the products are so good major publications are doing it for us.
#thankyou

Baby love!!!
Yesterday I had the opportunity to help in the children’s department at bible study for a bit. I got to love on precious baby Ellie. She was so sweet. I’ve always been a baby person and it’s been a while since I’ve had the chance to cuddle a little one. I think the smile on my face tells you everything you need to know about how I felt.
We’ve got tickets to see “A Star Is Born” on Sunday and I’m super excited. I have a feeling it will be a favorite next week. Hope y’all have a great weekend!
Okay, first off, you’re gorgeous, and your skin is flawless! I absolutely hate spending money on skincare products, but I’m seriously intrigued about this product…tell me more?! And cost?! Also, Polo is classic, so I don’t think it’s showing your age at ALL. Happy weekend, beautiful Lisa!
Oh my gosh…you are the BEST! Thanks so much sweet girl! I sent you an email with all the deets. Happy weekend!! XO
I’m so glad you got that top from ON! Now we’re triplets! I love me some Polo, such a classic. Your new product is fab on you, you know me full coverage foundation all the way! That picture with you and the sweet baby girl is priceless like YOU!!!
xo,
Kellyann
Me too, it’s so cute! I kinda want the hot pink one now. Baby snuggles are the best and I’m convinced they are good for your soul! Happy Weekend. XO
LOL ! I Love love Polo Cologne. My hubby wore it when we first met and I’ve bought it for a few times in the past 28 years. Hoping that you have a fabulous weekend !
I wonder if a lot of us “girls” our age don’t have fond memories of Polo? Happy weekend to you too!!! XO
Your ON top is so pretty and I’m loving your pink earrings! I saw A Star is Born last weekend and it was sooooo good! Enjoy!
Jill – Doused in Pink
Thanks Jill!!! I can’t wait to see it and then I want to see the one with Barbara S in it. XO
Tony and I are having a date afternoon movie and seeing A Star Is Born today. Everyone is raving about it so I am excited to see it. I have never seen it with Barbra S. and Kris K so I am anxious to see how Tony compares the 2. I got my pink Gibson sweater in while I was in Penn and as soon as it cools off here in the Central Valley. I will send you a pic of me for a side by side! LOL Happy weekend!
YES! Send me a pic. Too cute. It’s gotta cool off here too so I can wear mine. I want to watch the other version after we see this one. Hope y’all enjoy! Happy weekend! XO
POLO! Good stuff! Yes, that sweet baby looks good on you! Someday you’ll be the BEST Grammy! Plus that sweet girly was probably thinking, I like this stylin lady in her Gingham and leopard! Get some rest this weekend! Hugs!
And now our bedroom smells like it after he leaves for work.? Until I get my own little snuggle bug, I’ll just have to borrow them. Have a wonderful week my friend! XO
My daughter wears the Rockstar jeans and loves them. And, what a precious little one. Have a great weekend and I can’t wait to hear about the movie!
They are so good and such a great price, you can’t go wrong! I think I’m going to have to volunteer to babysit her and get some snuggle time. The movie was great, but full of profanity.? I could have done without that. Have a great week! XOXO
That Polo cologne is bringing back some 80’s and 90’s memories for this Girl! Go on and get in some Grammie practice while you can, Girlfriend!
Doesn’t it though. And since he’s started using it, every morning when I go back upstairs in our room I can smell it❤️
Your Old Navy outfit is so cute! Finding a good lipstick color is the best! And if I have a day off of work, I never know what day of the week it is after that haha. Hope you’re having a great weekend, Lisa!
Well thank you my friend! I have enough trouble keeping myself together without adding in little challenges .LOL I hope all is well with you cute girl!!!
XOXO
Oh, I used to wear Lauren by Ralph Lauren and even named my second daughter Lauren after that perfume! So RL and I go waaaay back. If it’s good, it’s good. And timeless.
Like the looks of that Rodan and Fields sunscreen/foundation/moisturizer stuff. I have such sun damage. I look freckled but it is sun damage. Years of sun worshipping have taken a toll.
You are a natural at baby snuggling. I am fresh from a trip to see my two year-old grand and her snuggles just fill me with such joy.
Hi Leslie! I wore Lauren too. I think it was definitely part of that 80’s-90’s era. Baby snuggling is one of my favorite pass times.❤️ If you are ever interested in undoing some of your sun damage, let me know. The Rodan + Fields Reverse really does help. I’ve been using it for about 3 years and love it. I have a couple of spots that have lightened but will never go away and overall, much less damage. My mom who was an esthetician for many years even tells me how much better my skin looks since starting to use R+F. I always feel like that’s really telling and saying something, Thanks so much for reading and commenting. Have a great week! XOXO

So sweet, Ellie was enjoying it just as much as you! Hugs, x.
She was a cutie patootie and I loved it!!!
Old Navy’s shipping is frustratingly slow! I agree! Although it’s free with free returns so I try not to mind too much. That top is really cute on you! I love the print!
Thank you! That’s exactly why I’m able to tolerate it, Laura. Have a great day! XO
