What to Wear and Do on A Girl’s Trip

What to Wear and Do on A Girl’s Trip

Hello Pretty Ladies,

Are you as happy to see the weekend as I am? Today, I am joining my friend, Dawn, with Party Til Dawn with a blog and Instagram share. Recapping our girlfriend’s “work and play” girl’s trip. We had the pleasure of combining work and play for a fun Girl’s weekend. Shopping, Hair, nails or a spa day, wine tasting, watching a movie, and dining are always delightful on a girl’s trip in Kirkland, Washington.

What to Wear and Do on a Girl’s Trip to Seattle (a suburb of Seattle) Kirkland, Washington.

Shop my Travel look below:

A little look back at my girl’s weekend with Dawn. We stayed at the beautiful Heathman Hotel in Kirkland, WA. Located just a block from Lake Washington and surrounded by great restaurants and shopping, it is a must-stay when you visit! You are also just minutes away from Shop Totem Lake. The Heathman has a beautiful lobby to cozy up next to the fire with a cup of coffee to start your day. And an excellent onsite restaurant and bar where we shared appetizers and drinks after a long work day.

Shop Totem Lake in Washington is the sister shopping center to Utah’s Station Park, which Dawn and I work with regularly on content creation. Dawn features Totem lake often, and I feature Station Park. We have now had the pleasure of working with each other at our locations while combining work and Play with a girl’s trip.

Kirkland Girl’s trip Itinerary

Friday

Lunch with Sharleen at Joe’s Burger

An excellent spot for a lunch meeting or hanging out with friends. The food was delicious, with several types of fries, from waffles, sweet potato regular fries, and garlic fries.

Content creation

Photo shoots with Evereve, Ulta, and Sephora. A little video-creating with products perfect for the holidays and some sneak peeks in Santas village. Below is one of the outfits I wore for Evereve.

203 Coffee and a walk

203 coffee, also located at the shops at Totem lake, is a charming spot to grab a great coffee or warm drink and head out on a walk around the lovely shopping center to get in your steps for the day or shop the beautiful stores while taking in the sites of the center.

Ulta hair appointments

Olaplex hair treatments at Ulta are a must! Your Hair will look and feel so good! Read more about Our experience HERE.

Mani/Pedi’s- Anthony Vince at the Shops at Totem Lake

Need a little pampering? A manicure and a pedicure always do the trick for me—also, a great place to have a birthday party or bridal pampering party.

Dinner at Due Cucina located at the Shops at Totem Lake

love good pasta? This pasta is like your little Italian grandmother made it! 🙂 Guess what? You can take it home and freeze it too! Travel well, as I brought home to my family.

Movie- Cenamark we saw a great chick flick (Ticket to Paradise with Julia Roberts)

Content creating/ Shopping -Nordstrom Rack & Sephora

Sunday

A little sleeping in and enjoying a coffee with a view in my room, wearing Print Fresh PJ, of course. (You know these are some of my go-to pj’s) The Heathman has in-room coffee, tea, and comfy couches, and my room had a pretty view overlooking the cute shops across the street.

Print fresh Pj’s perfect for sleep and lounging on a Sunday morning. With all the fun prints and stylish sets, Printfresh pj’s are my go-to pj’s for Travel.

Shop the pj’s below:

A Walk & Breakfast at Kirkland bakery right across from the Hotel, and of so good we had to stop by multiple times.

This bakery and coffee house had the best croissants (like I was in Paris, and I am not joking). So good I took a box home for the guys. Everything we tried, we loved. Isn’t that one of your favorite things to do while traveling? Trying out and tasting the foods.

WOODINVILLE WINE COUNTRY

Yes, Seattle has a wine culture; who knew? Dawn and I met one of Dawn’s followers, Karin, for this fun experience. (now Karin and I follow each other and chat via dm daily) Another fun part of our job is building relationships that turn into friendships. We had a fun day experiencing three different wineries, tasting three wines per winery owned and created by women.

Shop my look below:

Dinner at Sparrow with Krista & Julie

Krista & Julie are fellow Bloggers/Instagrammers living in Kirkland and Dawn’s good friends. We also have built a friendship on Instagram. One of the best parts of traveling is connecting with those you’ve made friendships with online.

Shop what I wore to dinner below:

Monday – Pike Place Market shopping and Lunch

Checked one off my bucket list, with a little day trip to Pike’s Place. The flowers are stunning, and the shopping and food markets are something to see. We had a delicious lunch and picked up several yummy gourmet jams, cheese, chocolates, and treats to bring home.

New Year’s Target Home Refresh

Hello Pretty Ladies,

Christmas has been taken down, and the house feels a little empty. I love doing a little home refresh in January. How about you? Adding just a few pieces to your home decor can give a minor update. I found a few pieces at Target to freshen up your home, whether you’re looking for a small amount of furniture, a new lamp, or a great coffee table book to inspire you. Target has some great affordable pieces.

I love changing up my dish towels and refreshing the pillows. It’s a great affordable way to give a little update/refresh to your home. Adding a new piece of art or a mirror can give your room a new look, while a new little accent piece, like a chair or a small dresser, can change the room’s look.

Here are my picks from Target:

Upholstered Natural Wood Accent Chair – Hearth & Hand™ with Magnolia

16″ Faux Olive Leaf Potted Plant – Hearth & Hand™ with Magnolia

3-Drawer Wood Dresser – Hearth & Hand™ with Magnolia

Assembled Resin Table Lamp Tan – Threshold™ designed with Studio McGee.

Winter Casual Outfit Inspirations

January 9, 2023

Winter Casual Outfit Inspirations

Happy Monday, Pretty Ladies🌸

Need a little causal outfit inspiration? I thought I would share what I have worn lately. Several of these outfits are what I wore to the hospital while caring for my mom. I needed outfits that were comfortable, easy to wear, warm, and still looked put together. Hospitals are cold, so layers are great. Being comfortable was also essential for extended stays as well.

What I wore last week….Fit these criteria.

Cold winter weather looks… Layered up✔️ from leggings, flares, and skinny jeans…. This a little inspiration to shop your closet and see what you can create from what you have…

Chico’s Cashmere & cotton blend loungewear set. (fi s true to size) Paired with New balance tennis shoes and Free People coat

Shop the Look below: (Click on the photo below)

Pact leggings, Cami & sweatshirt, fits true to size. Cote of London puffer vest with cap sleeve, Free people jacket, cashmere wrap by Chico’s as a scarf, New York cap, and New Balance tennis shoes.

Banana Republic straight-leg with wide cuff, One of my go-to jeans lately, Easy to pair with anything from a sweater to a button-up with a blazer. You’ll love them too (fit true to size). Today, I’ve paired them with a Loft Ski Sweater (both on sale) layered with another closet must-have, the Faux leather vest by Chico’s, and finished with Platform loafers.

Shop the Look below: (tap on the photo)

Easy and comfy Leggings paired with Free people’s sweater make for the perfect winter weekend outfit.

Cheaters Homemade Garlic Bread

January 8, 2023

Cheaters Homemade Garlic Bread

Hello, Pretty ladies.

Today’s Sunday recipe is one of my Family’s all-time favorite garlic bread! I shared a little of their reaction below. I hope you try this recipe, and let me know in the comments. Have a great Sunday.

Cheaters Homemade Garlic Bread! This is so dang good I have to make two loaves for this Family of 7!

Garlic Bread Recipe:

Loaf Rhodes Frozen Bread

One cube butter

One tablespoon of minced garlic

Tablespoon (1) Garlic Seasoning

1/2 Teaspoon Italian Seasoning

NOTE: This Bread is not for someone on a diet

How to:

First, Place the frozen loaf on a cooking sheet lined with parchment paper, and cover it with a linen dishtowel.

(or cheesecloth) let rise. (follow directions on the bag) Bread rising usually takes ALL day. I’ll get this ready at about 9:00 am to make for dinner around 6:00 pm. When risen, bake at 350 until golden brown. (follow the direction on the packaging.) While Bread is baking, melt a cube of butter in the microwave, then add garlic and seasoning and mix.

When Bread is out of the oven, brush on a heavy coating of the Butter mixture. Let excellent for about 10-15 minutes slice (Bread will still be warm and will sink, it’s ok), then coat each piece with more butter mixture. Serve hot and almost gooey.

Family’s reaction:

This Bread is a family favorite, and when my Family sees it on the counter in the morning, they literally jump for joy. They’ll eat two whole loaves; if I made three, that would get eaten too. It’s so rich, soaked in butter and garlic. It’s heavenly! I serve this Bread with soups, Pasta, and even salads. If you watch my instastories, and I hope you do, you’ve seen me make it several times while staying at home was in place. ( heck, probably one of the reasons I’ve gained 10 pounds!)

How did it get its name? Well…Cheaters because, well, you cheating and not making the loaf from scratch! Nobody’s got time for that! Insert Giggle! Hence, I named it My cheater’s homemade garlic bread.

Thank you

Thank you for stopping by and reading today’s day’s blog post. Do you love good garlic bread? I’d love for you to tell me in the comments. You can also find me on Instagram, Pinterest, Liketoknowit, Amazon shops, and Facebook.

Five makeup products from 2022 changed my skin’s look and how I did my makeup.

Hello pretty ladies,

I hope your first week of the new year is going well. I wanted to share five makeup products that significantly changed how I did my makeup and what it did for my skin. Video HERE where you can get a visual. These five makeup products either helped give my skin a dewy/glow or helped me achieve a better or easier look. As we age, our skin loses its natural youthful glow. I found products that help achieve that glow without glitter sinking into pours. It is all about the light.

I had girlfriends comment on how good my skin was looking, and even though I will give a lot of credit to my skincare regimens, it was because of the products I added to my makeup routine that gave my skin the appearance they were noticing.

✨ It’s all about the glow✨

Here’s what I used to get that dewy glow in 2022✨

Trinny London BFF serum

Trinny London BFF– de-stress-tinted skincare formula helps to reduce the appearance of everyday stress on the skin. Instantly plumped and radiated.

Use wear alone or layer for desired coverage. Great on aging skin, as it doesn’t settle into pores.

Olivier Midy-Eclat Midy-Face oil

Olivier Midy face oil-It helps your skin and gives a beautiful glowy & dewy complexion. It allows makeup not to sink into pours and achieves that plumper, dewy completion. Apply all over after moisturizer.

See how to layer skincare HERE properly.

*Note the product is pricy, but you use very little, so it lasts a long time.

Charlotte Tilbury-Hollywood flawless filter

I wear #3, fair pale, Hollywood Flawless filter

It gives you a youthful glow! This is a game changer in the glow department ✨✨✨ apply to the forehead, nose, and cheekbones before you apply your foundation or tint.

Charlotte Tilbury- Eyebrow set 3

Three products in one easy set!

–medium brown brow lift a pencil,

–legendary brow= micro precision tinted brow gel

–Brow fix =brow serum gel to keep brows in place

It makes doing your eyebrows easy and fast✔️ This was something I struggled with, as I never really did anything to my brows as a teenager or later. Brows weren’t a big focus in the 90s, and mine had a natural shape. They were always very light, and so was my hair, so it never occurred to me to make them darker to frame the eye. (even in my modeling days, they never touched my brows)

Now, darker, more pronounced brows are a big trend. It’s funny how a brow style trends. I have read the thin 1990 brows are coming back. However, I will be sticking with my natural brow, darkened. The Charlotte Tilbury eyebrow pencil, tint, and gel help you to achieve easy shaping (pencil) and darkening (tinted brow gel) and stay put with the brow serum gel.

Charlotte Tilbury- Filmstar Bronze & Glow

Contour and Highlight powder in light/medium/Clair-moven

This due set comes in two sizes, so if you want to try it out, the small due is $29, Shown here. I just ordered the full size, as I love what it does for my skin. You apply as you would any highlighter on the forehead, nose, and cheekbones.
