Five On Friday (Hey From The Coast!)

Good morning from the coast of NC! I get to head home today and am so geared up for the weekend. Time for a little Five On Friday action -- here's five things on my mind today.

Irony is ... preaching wellness during the day and then ordering THIS at dinner. Fries topped with hot crab dip and melted cheese. Judge away. It was worth every calorie.

(For what it's worth, it was shared three ways ... better, right?)

Yesterday I went to my favorite little consignment store in New Bern that I've blogged about a few times (here and here). It's called Twice as Nice and while it can be hit-or-miss, I don't think I've ever left empty-handed. Some days are just more of a hit than others! :) I picked up two tops this time -- a red scoop neck Gap tee and a stretchy tunic. I'm a sucker for tunics. The store was giving an extra 15% off and my total was just over $14 for the two of these tops. Can't wait to throw them in the wash so I can wear them this weekend!

My new monogrammed necklace from The Plaid Barn (that I blogged about here) came in the mail the other day and I LOVE it. It's larger than either of my other two necklaces and I love the white paired with the gold. I've been wearing it nonstop! Did anyone else who ordered one have theirs come in as well?

I'm crazy in love with this outfit. Like, need to recreate this fall season. Question for you fashionistas, however ... what shoes do you wear with your maxi skirts in cold weather? I love my knit maxi skirts in the summer because I can easily pair them with flat sandals. But in the winter -- knowing that most of my skirts wouldn't be long enough to really pair with heels like heeled boots, wedges, or booties -- what would you wear the skirts with to stay warm enough? Flat boots?

Loving, loving, loving the promise of a new weekend. Looking forward to a few days to relax and appreciate the small things! Happy Friday, friends!
