It’s A Thing 4.13.18

We are taking a quick break from Wedding Week for our traditional Friday It’s a Thing post. Don’t worry, we’ll be back this afternoon and tomorrow with our final wedding posts to round out our week!

  1. We’ve been celebrating all things wedding on the blog this week and if you have been reading our posts, you’ve probably seen quite a few photos from our weddings. I am obsessed with my photographer, Carly Otness. If you are getting married in SoCal (or anywhere, she travels!), check out her site!  CAO_7034
  2. I was incredibly late for my dentist appointment this year… I should have had it back in January but just finally got to it last week. I am thrilled that my electric toothbrush has kept my teeth in good shape during my lapse in appointments. If you are an LA local, I can’t recommend Vision Dental enough.
  3. I have been doing a whole lot of planning for our big Africa trip this summer. I cashed in all of my credit card points and miles to book us in business class. I’ve been obsessed with reading articles about traveling in style on two of my favorite travel blogs: One Mile at a Time and The Points Guy.
  4. Compliments of Movie Pass, we have been going to see a lot more movies in theaters lately. I saw Blockers last weekend and was surprised to love it as much as I did. There were so many laugh out loud moments. If you are a fan of the Pitch Perfect franchise of movies, you’ll love it. It was directed by the woman behind those films.

  1. 2018-04-11 23.34.24I’ve been traveling for almost 2 weeks now with another week to go and there have been on so. many. planes. in my life!! I’m a huge believer in all of these travel skincare tips from Into the Gloss. I don’t leave home without these makeup wipes and this water bottle!
  2. I love Gal Meets Glam‘s website redesign! It looks so lovely and they’ve definitely added a lot more “discoverability” to it. I’m especially enjoying checking in on Julia’s ‘Daily Looks‘ page. Great outfit inspiration!
  3. My husband(!!!) and I have been working from New York for the week and I have definitely been indulging a bit now that I don’t have a dress to fit into… We discovered this oatmeal-only breakfast spot and this bacon/egg/cheese specialty shop and both had me drooling over all the possibilities!
  4. I’m in another wedding as a bridesmaid tomorrow and have so loved watching the bride-to-be’s planning. We have very similar styles (hi, type A, many spreadsheets, etc!) but she has her unique spin! I’m psyched to wear my wedding shoes again and a dress I got off Poshmark for more than 75% off!

Let us know what you think!
