Favorite Things Friday « Covet Living

Happy Friday, darlings! I hope everyone’s had a great week. I’m personally amped as I’m headed out in a couple hours to reunite with two of my college besties back in Bloomington, Indiana – aka our college town. Aka the scene of late nights, bad decisions, and one fine college education. I can’t even handle the excitement.

Anywho, speaking of besties, my home slice Steph and I pooled together five things we’re loving right now… Here goes!:

1) The Age of Adaline, starring Blake Lively, out next weekend:

2) This plucky little ditty below from hip hop band Jurassic 5, who I would’ve never expected to produce a song with this kinda sound. I’m sometimes listen to it on repeat when I’m posted up at work, all stressed out and shiz:

3) THIS WEBSITE, WHICH JUST…MAKES… ME SO HAPPY:

4) Christina Aguilera’s spot-on impersonation of Britney Spears:

5) This clean front entry of a Connecticut home is simple yet totally inviting. Everything about it is charming. More pix here. PS: Those sconces…

Have a marvelous weekend!

That little Marquesa number makes me weak at the knees… but it also makes me giddy for Springtime. Even though it’s always Summer in California, I still get excited for this time of year… for everything in shades of pastels, for planting new flowers & herbs outside (OMG, I’m 107… but seriously, I can almost smell heirloom tomatoes on a vine in the garden)… just for a fresh start. And if you’re any of my people back in the homeland, I bet the sun peeking through the grey skies and warming your face + the promise of green buds popping up from underneath the snow makes you so happy you could cry. Hit play on the ditty below and keep scrolling down to getcherself in the mood for Springtime!

This weekend…

Hello Spring | Covet Living

Open a window – even if it’s still freezing out, and even if it’s only for a few minutes – just to let some fresh air in.

Or if it’s warm enough, sleep with all the windows open, and wake up like this on Saturday morning. Which is precisely what I’ll be doing.

Happy Weekend | Covet Living

Pick up some fresh flowers from the market.

Rearrange your furniture or refresh your decor, with things like this pillow from Lulu & Georgia:

Mix yourself some lemon mint water… a) because it’s so good for you, but b) because it tastes like Springtime.

Go get – or DIY – a mani in a bright, happy hue.

NARS Kutki Polish | Covet Living

Get stoked, even if you’re over the age of 4, about Easter coming up, because even if you’re not gluing sequins on Easter eggs, at least you get to wear a Easter-egg-colored-outfits that weekend.
