Fabulous Friday!

It's here - another edition of Fabulous Friday! A highlight of all things fabulous that I've stumbled across over the course of this week (in no particular order, of course!)

To begin, I mentioned yesterday that scarves have been in my radar in a major way lately. I'm thinking specifically of this scarf from Nordstrom. Isn't it yummy?The minute I mentioned this scarf fixation two wonderful readers (shouts out to Brittany Ann & b.e.g.) sent me over to Loves of Life and her Scarf Swap. Little did they know that I had already scouted it out twice yesterday. So along with scarves, I'm loving the idea of the Scarf Swap! Head on over to Loves of Life to sign up.


While out sick this week, I've had the opportunity to catch up on lots of t.v. and especially What Not to Wear. I would love to have Stacy & Clinton show up on my doorstep with a $5000 VISA gift card! A new reader, Jane, suggested that we make our own home videos & send them in. I'm in! Although, I would hope they wouldn't have that much to rip me to shreds over.


Kimmie over at Full Circle is another Fabulous Friday addition! She is such a wonderful baker - she sent me cookies & they were phenomenal! Kimmie, I have the pictures in my camera which unfortunately, my mother has at the moment. Sundays Kimmie showcases cupcakes. Yummy, sweet, delicious cupcakes. Beautiful, artsy, FUN cupcakes!! Sesame Street Cupcakes, Dinosaur Cupcakes, OH MY!!

This bag. I love handbags. I may have a slight problem in that I love them so much. I really would love a new black bag (my old one is too small). This beautiful MARC by Marc Jacobs is fabulous! And on SALE!!
This week while being laid up so so sick on the couch (thank you all again for your well wishes) I broke out my Pottery Barn Bamboo Cotton Throw. I got this last year and absolutely love it! It is a beautiful rust color and I had it embroidered with my new initials. It is so super soft & cozy. I had a friend once tell me that I was "texture oriented" and he was so right! I love soft, fuzzy, cozy, yummy. Yes, I use the word yummy to describe clothes & throws. Anyway, my favorite throw is no longer available (how I wish it was - I'd get 2 more!) but I did manage to find a picture, just not the right color. You can somewhat see the softness of the material in the picture.What have you found this week that is worthy of Fabulous Friday?

I think it'd be fabulous if it stopped raining when I had to be outside! But now that it's the weekend, I think the rain is fabulous because that means jammies and movies and pizza!! Hope you and the mister are getting better!

I'm doing the scarf swap TOO! What a fun idea! My fabulous Friday find (which I actually found on Wedesday) is this great cozy, oatmeal colored sweater from Banana. I'm going to pair it with a plain white T, dark jeans, and brown pumps when I pick up my "soldier boy" (haha) at the airport! Happy Friday, beautiful!
