It’s Coming Up Daisies

t’s officially spring in Wisconsin. By that, I mean we cracked 40 degrees. You better believe people are running around with no jackets on at the very least. Friday it was a balmy 18, and I felt like a rebel for going without a hat and gloves. I also hope to stop talking about the weather regularly, very soon. But I just can’t commit to anything at the moment.

We had a busy productive weekend on our end! Caitlin celebrated Sarah’s birthday by having some dinner at Onesto, which we highlighted last month here. And they stayed downtown at another Milwaukee Boutique hotel; the Kimpton Journeyman. She also did some bowling on Saturday night. Every once in awhile, it’s a blast to go bowling with some friends. On my end, I had a dear friend up to visit. I made some Chicken Parmesan on Friday. Despite my best efforts to ruin it by not reading the directions, it ended up being very tasty!

Saturday, I got a massage that Tim had gave me for my birthday. Do any of y’all get massages regularly? I try for quarterly, because our massage therapist is awesome with integrating range of motion during the massage. Plus he makes sure whatever we’re doing in the gym isn’t messing us up. Did you know you can use your HSA money towards massages? We just recently found that out and were super excited. Obviously check on your disclaimers/limits before trying that!

I checked out H&M over the weekend and finally got the plaid skirt that I’ve been eyeing since before Christmas. I’m glad I waited, because it was $10! Unfortunately it’s sold out online so I can’t link it, but I’m thinking I’ll still post it on the blog at some point. It is so effortless and classy. I’m planning so many different ways to wear it already. I know some of y’all want us to do some try-on sessions. It didn’t seem worth the stuff I found this weekend, but we are still planning on implementing your request!

Also stopped into Nordstrom to return this swimsuit cover up I ordered for vacation. I knew it was risky, because it wasn’t that long on the model. The sales associate that helped process my return did show me several beautiful longer options. Too bad vacation has already passed, because they are super cute. I added a widget below with the ones she showed me.

Sunday we went and watched our cousin play volleyball, and then hit up Costco with the rest of the people stocking up for the Super Bowl. Did you know that this is the second biggest food day of the year in the United States? That is crazy to me! We did do it right and grab some rib eye steaks, so I guess we contributed to that statistic! Let’s be honest, Caitlin and I sat and browsed the Asos sale last night during the game.

Speaking of Asos, this is one of the dresses we snagged on major sale before our vacation. It is so flattering, and comfortable for an easy vacation look. I was a little surprised, the cut it generous for going with a size 10. Luckily you can adjust the straps and tie them tighter in the back. It is such a great length for us tall women as well!

I paired it with my go-to strappy sandals from Payless. They are older, but they usually release an updated style every year. Make sure you check out their site! I did link a few cute options from Nordstrom that are similar in the widget below.  I also snagged this fun wire headband from Asos, and I love it! It’s awesome because you can adjust it, unlike a lot of headbands that don’t quite stretch large enough for my big head. Plus it’s a total statement piece, so I can go light on the jewelry.

That’s all for today, did you catch the Super Bowl last night? More importantly, what yummy snacks and foods did you eat??
