Hi friends! How was the week? I hope you had a great one. What’s going on this weekend?
We have a birthday party, a night out with friends, and I’m teaching a barre class. I also can’t wait to crawl into the sauna blanket this afternoon; it’s a little chilly today. I’ve love to hear what you have going on!
I was also thinking of doing a spring challenge, similar to Spring Shape Up but with MORE. Wellness tips, fitness programming, live calls, free, the whole deal. Let me know if that’s something you’d be interested in doing and we can start later this month!
It’s time for the weekly Friday Faves party (on a Saturday! Yesterday ended up being wild, but I still love doing this particular post each week). This is where I share some of my favorite finds from the week and around the web. I always love to hear about your faves, too, so please shout out something you’re loving in the comments section below.
Friday Faves 4.5
Life:
Easter fun! We had an amazing Easter weekend here at home after our San Diego and Disneyland trip last week. Saturday night, the girls and I went to mass, and Sunday morning, the Easter bunny made a stop at our house.
He brought new swimsuits and candy for both kids, a drone and a stuffed animal for one kid, skincare and lulu for the other. 😉
We had a lovely breakfast at my dad’s house with his side of the family and we finally got to meet the newest member of the family, Hudson! He is snuggliest sweetest little guy… and is NOT helping my current baby fever. (Team Two and Through, but I’m struggling with this right now lol.)

Thank you to my friends at Bored Panda for including me in this article.
Started this book this weekend and it’s already living up to the hype.
Don’t forget to check out this week’s podcast episode here.
Fashion + beauty:
Beautycounter extended their promo through the weekend. You can get free shipping on orders over $50 and 30% back in product credit with Beautycounter! You can check out all of the details here. This is the first time I’ve ever seen them do 30% back in product credit. It definitely makes it worth the Band of Beauty signup fee here! You get a free gift with qualifying and orders, and product credit to use later. I use and love this lipgloss, supreme cream, all bright C serum, overnight peel, and AHA mask.
Everyone is obsessed with Abercrombie, and the last time I shopped there was in high school, when we’d wear a lacy cami under our Abercrombie polo with a popped collar. Those were the dayyyyysssss haha. Needless to say, they’ve really upped their game lately and are even giving off a Reformation-ish vibe. I’m going to order a few things to try for spring/summer, including these:
These tailored pants.
This everyday mini dress.
This linen blend blazer.
This bodysuit.
This maxi dress.
Fitness, health, and good eats:
I can’t wait to try some of these go-to recipes.
Everything bagel cauliflower rolls.
You have to try my favorite oatmeal bake.
Sweet Tomatoes is baaaaack! They all closed during the time that shall not be named, and the first one to reopen is our beloved Tucson location. It was always a nostalgic spot to take the girls, and we’d often meet up for family dinner. As soon as it reopened, we planned a family dinner with madre, my stepdad, and Nani. It was like a time warp – everything was exactly the same!
Had the BEST strawberry pop heart from Dedicated, which is a local gf bakery. It was everything.
A question for you this weekend: what’s your favorite coffee cup?
Mine seem to change each year, but right now, there are three in my favorites rotation: a Wizard of Oz mug I’ve had since middle school, a succulent mug for maadre, and one I got from Kajabi for hitting my first $50k in sales.
Happy happy weekend, friends! Thanks so much for stopping by the blog today and I’ll see ya soon.
