4.3 Friday Faves

4.3 Friday Faves

Hi friends! Happy Easter weekend and also happy Passover to my friends who are celebrating. I hope you have a lovely weekend ahead! We’re hanging out at the pool – ours is still too cold so it’s nice to have a heated option!- meeting up with friends to watch the U of A game (GO CATS!) and spending Easter with the fam. We’re having Easter brunch at my dad’s and then my mom’s side of the family is coming over here to BBQ for dinner.

For now, I’m hanging out with my red light, avoiding the laundry pile, and thinking about a last-minute run for Easter supplies.

It’s time for the weekly Friday Faves roundup! This is where I share some of my favorite finds from the week and around the web. I always love hearing about your faves, too, so please shout out something you’re loving in the comments section below.

4.3 Friday Faves

Fashion, beauty, random:

Ordered these sandals from Amazon and was pleasantly surprised! I’m not posting foot pics here lol but but they’re true to size, super comfy and I can tell I’ll wear them a lot. I was looking for a casual sandal to wear with skirts and dresses and these are perfect.

They’re actually super similar to these at a fraction of the price.

Also you know you’re getting to a special point in life when you’re excited about a pillow. I was using a flat pillow that I bought during Rona, and I liked it because I hate super fluffy pillows, but it was completely flat. I was folding it up, and often waking up with a sore neck or shoulder since I sleep on my side. (I’m really trying to sleep on my back because it’s better for your skin but I can’t do it.)

I did a ton of research and came across this one. It was important to me that it would have nontoxic materials and not be too fluffy. This one is a little on the fluffy side – you can even add more to it if you’d like as it comes with extra fluff – but I think it will calm down over time. I’ve slept really well each night and usually it takes a while to get used to a new pillow. I might get one for the Pilot, too!

A pic from a full moon meditation and sound bowl class I took with a friend this week. It was so relaxing and the 45 minutes flew by. I can’t wait to do it again!

Shopbop is having a HUGE sale!

Here are some of my top picks:

Perfect bootcut jeans.

Obsessed with these woven ballet flats.

Glow gloss with SPF.

I adore the details on this dress.

This gorgeous romper.

Jellies are back and I’m not mad about it.

Gorgeous spring dress from one of my favorite brands.

I haven’t tried these suits yet but I’ve heard amazing things.

This beach riot bikini.

Pool slides

I bought two pairs of these in my Spain and they’re my favorite flats. Size up! (I’m usually a 38 and wear a 39 in these) I’m wearing this pair right now!

This midi dress

Another one of my favorite brands (because I’m the only daughter in our family)

Classic polo for jeans, skirts, or shorts.

I’ve linked to more on my ShopMy page here! Make sure to follow along there. This is where I love to share shopping finds. Also, if you’re a fellow blogger friend or creator, you can sign up for your own ShopMy storefront here. It’s my favorite one because it’s the most-user friendly, aesthetically pleasing, and you can add links from anywhere.

Loving facial cupping lately!

Read, watch, listen:

Don’t miss this week’s podcast episode. I’m talking with neurosurgeon Dr. Amir Vokshoor about holistic pain management strategies, peptides, and more.

New Substack post here about things I want to teach the girls about health.

Everything you do is good.

I can’t wait to see Project Hail Mary. Have you seen it already?!

Little pre-dinner snack plate for the crew:

Fitness, health, and good eats:

I’m considering doing an old school fitness challenge around here with all-new follow along workouts. Think two weeks of workouts (barre, heavy strength, mobility, and core), along with a FB group for accountability and some prizes?? It would be very low cost, like $49. If this is something you would like to join in, please comment YES below just so I can gauge interest. Thank you, friends!

Made these honey glazed salmon bowls earlier this week and we all loved it.

Easter brunch recipes.

Thank you so much for stopping by the blog today! Have an amazing weekend and I’ll see ya soon!

Discover The World’s Smallest “Mountain” – The Mount Paltry

Discover The World’s Smallest “Mountain” – The Mount Paltry Move over Everest, there’s a new headline-grabber in town and it’s barely taller than you are. Mount Paltry has exploded on social media as the world’s smallest mountain , a tiny bump in Australia that has become internet-famous precisely because it looks… well, not very mountain-like at all. In a world obsessed with extreme hikes and record-breaking peaks, this modest mound has captured global attention by doing the exact opposite: being proudly underwhelming. Where on Earth Is Mount Paltry? Mount Paltry is described in viral posts as a miniature mountain in Australia, rising only a few metres above the surrounding land. It’s usually shown as a small, rounded rise in an otherwise flat landscape the kind of bump you might expect to call a hill, or even “just a bit of ground,” rather than a mountain. That’s exactly why people love it: the contrast between the dramatic title “world’s smallest mountain” and the very ordinar...

Glamorous Plus-Size Wedding Guest Dresses in Beautiful Styles

Glamorous Plus-Size Wedding Guest Dresses in Beautiful Styles Did you know that over 67% of women in the U.S. wear a size 14 or larger? Yet, despite the demand, the fashion industry has been slow to provide elegant, well-fitting, and on-trend plus- size wedding guest dresses. Many women face limited choices, ill-fitting designs, and outdated silhouettes that fail to highlight their curves. Shopping for the perfect dress can feel like navigating a minefield either the options lack style, the fit is off, or the available dresses don’t align with the formality of the event. For years, plus-size women have been told to “hide” their curves instead of celebrating them. Traditional formalwear often lacks the structure, comfort, or aesthetic appeal needed to make plus-size wedding guests feel just as glamorous as their straight-size counterparts. The frustration of sifting through uninspiring racks, struggling with restrictive fabrics, or settling for ill- proportioned designs is all too fami...

Sculpt Society Review

Sculpt Society Review Sharing my thoughts on Sculpt Society and if I’d recommend this workout! For today’s post, I’m excited to share an updated review on one of my all-time favorite workouts! I was ad-targeted for this one forever, and since I always love trying new body workouts and absolutely love dance cardio, I figured I’d give it a whirl about a year ago. This workout program was founded by Megan Roup ( you can check out her Instagram here ) and I’ll share a full review below. Heads up that this review isn’t sponsored; I signed up for a 7-day free trial and am still a paying happy member over a year later. I’ve tried a lottttt of fitness apps in my routine and am always pumped when I find a winner. You can use my referral link to get a 7-day trial plus one month free on the fitness app! Sculpt Society Review What Is Sculpt Society? As I mentioned above, Sculpt Society was created by celebrity trainer Megan Roup and is a blend of dance cardio, barre, Pilates, and traditiona...
