Lounging Around.

Today is a reader request I received wanting me to share some lounge wear favorites.  I don't know about y'all but after a long day I like to throw on some comfy clothes.   On the weekend during the day comfort is always key.  I frequently live in leggings and a comfy tee shirt.  I rounded up a few of my favorite lounge wear pieces.

loungewear

Rose Tee - I own this and love it.  It is super soft and a longer length which I prefer.
Make and Model Tee - This tee is a great deal under $25.  Cute for loungewear or to toss on with jeans.
Underarmour Underwear- I got 2 pairs of these for Christmas and I loved them so much I just ordered a few more pairs.  I love the stretchy material and if you buy more than 3 you get them for $10 a piece. The reviews were not great but I really love them.
Ugg Slippers- My favorite slippers. The lining is so plush and they will last you for several years.
Eberjey Nightshirt- I love this classic night shirt because it is super soft.
Spanx Leggings- I swear by these and wear mine all the time.  They suck you in and offer so much support.  They are on sale in the gray color right now.
Make and Model Ruffle Shorts- a nice alternative to pants.  I love the feminine ruffle detail. They are a great price too, under $30.
Ugg Robe- Pure bliss and a few colors are on sale right now.  My mom, sister and sister in law all own this same robe!
Josie Night Gown + Robe- I actually just ordered this set for a fun new Spring set.  I fell in love with the beautiful colors and it is a great price point.  It also comes in another cool print.
Lake PJ Set- Lake PJs are such a treat to put on and make a wonderful gift.  They are made out of a thicker pima cotton so they are not see thru and they are so incredibly soft.
Lake Night Gown- This is equally as great as the PJ set.  I like the short sleeve option for the Summer months
PJ Salvage Lounge Pants- I love the style of these with the tapered leg. They are also super comfy, I have them in a Winter Pattern and wear them almost every night.
JCrew Nightgown- I have this in 2 different colors.  It is a great light weight night gown.
Josie Lounge Shorts- Super cute for around the house lounging.
Under Armour Thong- Once again I love the material of this underwear it is super stretchy but still sucks you in.
TB Slippers- These look so soft and comfy and they are 50% off right now.  They come in 3 different colors.

I had to share a few coffee mugs I am loving too because most likely if I am in my lounge wear I am sipping some coffee or tea.

Happy Lounging Friends.

Scenes From Our Weekend

Hello second Monday of 2016!  We had a really nice low key weekend.  I have been on a mission to clean out and organize every corner of our house.  This past week and weekend I focused on our kitchen and dining room.  I filled up the entire back of my car with old pots and pans, dishes and silverware we never used and hauled it to Goodwill.  It was such a good feeling and now when I open our drawers and cabinets they are so organized and I love it! 
Next up I am going to clean out everyone's closets- I may do an instagram sale in the next week or two with clothes that I clean out.   My account there is @shopsnoopnattynat closet if you are interested in following.

I decided on some new silverware since our old silverware had been mysteriously disappearing. I am talking we were down to only 4 forks.  I have no idea what happened to it all.
I choose this gold set from Target and love it!! I honestly was surprised by the quality and it is so beautiful in person.  Such a great deal for the price.

I went for a run both days this weekend.  The cooler weather makes for such perfect running weather.
I thought this picture of the bridge covered in fog was so cool.


Snapped this picture of Sterling looking so grown up.  I love his style that is starting to emerge.

Frances Moon had her 2 year old check up this past week.  She is the size and height of a 3 year old.  Just like her Mama.  I was always big for my age:)

Speaking of Frances all she ever wants to sleep in and wear is her Paw Patrol night gown.  She is slightly obsessed.
Dreaming of warmer weather since it has been chilly here.  We are in the midst of booking our trip to the Caribbean again this Summer,  so resort wear is on my mind!

A little sneak peak at our new couch that was delivered this week.  We are starting to re-do our den and the couch was the first step.  Stay tuned for a fun make-over.  We have a new rug on the way and hoping to replace the mirror with a large abstract painting.  


Sunday we went to brunch at our favorite spot, The Variety shop.  I had the fried green tomato benedict and Matt had the shrimp hash browns.  They both were incredible.



The kids snuggled up with Daddy:)

I spent Sunday night on our new couch sipping rose watching the Golden Globes.  The tee shirt and leggings are my favorite lounge wear- Tomorrow I am planning a post featuring all my favorite loungewear! I am wearing a small in the leggings and tee shirt.
Here is another view of the tee and leggings on.

Two things I am really loving this New Year are my Bon Appetit Food Lovers Cleanse Cookbook and my Emily Ley Planner.  The cookbook is filled with so many amazing healthy recipes and I love the layout of the planner!


I always love watching the red carpet more than the actual awards.   These 4 ladies were some of the best dressed in my opinion.  I think Jennifer Lawerence's look was my favorite.





Have a great Monday!

Weekend Style | The Swing Sweater

Happy Saturday!
I hope everyone is enjoying their weekend.  The weather is dreary here, cold and overcast but perfect for an Oyster Roast we are attending later today!

I wanted to pop in and share a sweater that I am loving that is now on sale.  You may remember the JCrew Swing sweater from a few years back which I loved.  Well Loft has come out with a version I honestly like better.  It is a little thinner material which I really like.  It is basically the same fit and style and it is now on sale for $29, it was originally $59.

I am wearing a size XS.  It definitely runs on the large side so you could easily size down.  This would be great for any of you pregnant readers as well.  I lived in my swing sweaters while pregnant with Frances.

I am wearing the Cordovan Heather color which is like a deep maroon,  but it also comes in 5 other colors.

I also love this pink color as well.

My leopard calf hair pumps were also recently reduced.  They are a favorite of mine and go with so many different outfits.  Plus they are comfortable.


My jeans are also on sale.  I am a huge fan of the Jbrand Maria High Rise Jeans.  They suck everything in.  No flab ever hangs over the top of these jeans!  I liked the lighter color of these as well.

All 3 are great basic additions to any closet!

Cooking Made Easy | 10 Recipes Using Rotisserie Chicken

Happy Friday and Happy Weekend!  Today I am answering a reader request to share some recipes that you can use a Rotisserie chicken for.  I will be honest I hate handling raw chicken so when a recipe calls for chicken 9 times out of 10 I just buy the pre-cooked one.  It is one less pan to clean and so much easier.   Below are a some recipes I have featured on my blog in the past using pre-cooked chicken. They are all pretty easy week night meals and most can be made ahead of time too!



























I always welcome reader requests so shoot me an email if you have any ideas you would like me to feature on my blog! 
Happy Friday!  
and I have to share my tee shirt, that I mentioned yesterday.  Perfect for the weekend:) I wore mine last night, so comfortable and I love the fit.  Sometimes tee shirts are too boxy or short and this one is longer and a slimmer fit. I am in a size small for those curious about sizing.

Rose all Day.


Today I want to talk about Rose and not just kind you drink!  Pantone recently announced the colors of 2016 are Rose Quartz and Serenity.  I personally love them both but especially Rose Quartz.  It is such a beautiful neutral color.


I love the idea of it for interior accents.






There are so many ways to incorporate it into your wardrobe as well.  I have been loving rose gold jewelry for the past few years.  It is a nice alternative to gold.  Rose Quartz or Blush is the most gorgeous shade year round.  I love it paired with white in the Spring/Summer and it also pairs well with black.

If I had a wedding or event coming up, I would be all over that gown.  It is stunning and comes in 2 other colors. I own the tee shirt and ray-bans , they are awesome.  I also love the cross back tank, it is sitting in my cart.   The Glitter Stud earrings are a steal under $40 and they would go with everything!
