Favorite Links

Happy Tuesday! I had a wonderful birthday weekend with great friends that started with seeing the New York City Ballet at the Kennedy Center and ended with a day spent at two Virginia wineries. Now it's back into the normal swing of things and I've got a few of my favorite links from the past week for you.

• Spring cleaning season is in full swing and I love this room by room guide that tackles every corner of the home, including spaces you may not immediately think of. 

• In an effort to actually utilize all the recipes I've pinned over the years as well as cook more, I am going to attempt to cook one new Pinterest recipe each week. Blogging about it here will hopefully make me more accountable to actually following through on this plan.  

• I've been working my way through Jess Lively's past Lively Show podcasts and after listening to her chat with Erin Gates of Elements of Style, I finally bought her book, which I must say is a stylish addition to my coffee table book collection.

• Bangs have always been one of my favorite looks but I haven't tried them myself ever since an ill fated DIY attempt at blunt cut bangs back in college. Mara of M Loves M has me wondering if I should try them again.

• I picked up this adorable pink and white top this past weekend at a Junior League shopping event at the Pink Palm. It's the perfect spring pick me up.

• Speaking of which, have you seen this ad for the Lilly for Target line? Amazing.

• This tour of Cathy from Poor Little It Girl's apartment is absolutely lovely, and I love the sofa. I'm still using an Ikea sofa that I have had for far too many years now and this looks like perfect upgrade.

• I'm always searching for sweets that are lower in calories so I loved trying the new Kozy Shack Simply Well puddings for a guilt free treat.
