Friday Faves – 39 For The Snuggle Bunnies

winter nights, cold weather, relationships

//smooth tune –let’s get closer

Happy Friday! It is fa-reezing in The A and what better way to while away a cold night than cuddling with your snuggle bunny. Today’s Friday Faves are some goodies for a cold winter’s night. I actually like cold weather and I am truly content to stay in watching movies, sipping on something good and chillaxing. As long as there’s milk and bread, I’m good. And if this cold weather brings some snow, that’s cool too. A beautiful blanket of snow is so pretty for a day or two, when not accompanied by a ton of ice. Ice shuts this city down…LOL. The colder the weather, the better for the snuggle bunnies. Is it cold where you live? Are you snuggling?

Have a lovely weekend and come back tomorrow for a nice surprise!

Happy Friday,
How’s your 2014 going, still writing 2013? I have, more than a few times. But this year is off to a fab start. This week? That’s another story, just getting back into the groove, getting organized, setting priorities, revamping stuff, just getting it all together for a great year. I am in a three week training class so my posts will be slimmed down until I finish training. Can’t wait to fill you in!

I posted about my 50 X 50 Challenge and sounds like you lovelies are getting fine too! I am a gadget girl so today I’m posting some fitness “toys” to help us get Fit and Fabulous. The smart fork was all the rage at CES (Consumer Electronics Show) last year, we all eat too fast, this toy slows us down resulting in fewer calories. That food safe was invented for me. I can stash my oatmeal cookies and vanilla wafers and schedule a sweet snack for a cheat day. Now if I could fit a mojito in there too! Sometimes we think we’re really getting in, that Jawbone will tell the truth. And, I know y’all hate water weight, now we can see it and get rid of it by drinking more water. Of course you need some jams for your workout, get moving with Jumpin Jumpin!

Honestly just thinking about getting fit can be a drag, but these toys make it a lot more fun! I’m ordering the food safe! What’s your favorite fitness toy?

The Details:
Carol of the Bells – Mykola Leontovych and Peter J. Wilhousky
This Christmas – Donny Hathaway and Nadine McKinnor
Santa Baby – Joan Javits and Philip Springer
O Come All Ye Faithful – John Francis Wade
The Christmas Song – Mel Tormé and Bob Wells

Hi Pretties,
It is indeed a Happy Friday as I’m on vacay today, but the Friday Faves must go on! Today’s Friday Faves is all about Christmas Songs. The Christmas season officially kicks off for me when I hear Donny Hathaway’s “This Christmas”. This is my cue to start decorating, shopping, and just generally getting merry. I have to admit, not a big fan of remixing Christmas songs, I’d rather hear the original artist and arrangements. These are just a few of my faves. I know you’re singing each one!

What’s your favorite Christmas song? Have a Fab Friday and a Wonderful Weekend lovelies!

Friday Faves_Black Friday_robincharmagne

The Details:
1- Comfy shoes are a must, and these fit the bill
2- I’m in love with these bars, a healthy and tasty snack to keep your energy up
3- A cross-body is perfect to hold the essentials – phone, credit cards, and cash; the fold over flap and zippered compartment keeps your stuff safe
4- Stay hydrated with this fold-able and refillable water bottle
5- Yes, you’ll have lots of goodies for your Shopping Bags(De la Soul)

Hello Pretties,
6 Days before Black Friday! Next week this time, my shopping adventure will be done and I’ll be headed to breakfast! I’m making my budget and Christmas list now to be ready to snag some awesome deals on Friday. Now, as much as I love shopping, Thanksgiving Day shopping is NOT on the agenda. Shame on Retailers making their associates work when they should have time off to enjoy the day with their families. There is plenty of money to be made and it doesn’t have to be made on Thanksgiving. If you are shopping, show the cashiers, baggers, stockers, and wrappers some love! But come midnight, grabbing my shopping buds and we’re out the door. Today’s Friday Faves are some cool gear you’re going to need to get your shop on!

Are you shopping Black Friday?

Have a lovely weekend!

Hey pretties!
Three Words for ya’ – three – day – weekend! I love time off and plan to make the most of the Labor Day Weekend! It’s Friday Faves – Calf Hair Edition, enjoy!

calf hair goodies

I’m obsessed with calf hair, so luxurious! It’s a strong fabric but you can try it out as an accessory like a bracelet or gloves. If you’re really feeling bold, try calf hair in a dress or jacket!

Flat//Clutch//Belt//Sweatshirt//Bonanza Theme

Note: The calf hair items featured in this post are made from the skin of a cow but can also be purchased in faux or man-made.

Have a safe and happy holiday!
