friday fun, saturday smiles OOTD

happy sunday y'all! how has your weekend been? my weekend has been absolutely wonderful. i can't even put it in words! 

friday was friday-funday. it started with a great hour long spin ride at the Y then a trip to the grocery. a stroll up and down 12 south was nice and then a lap around target (an expensive lap) were both enjoyable as well. i did some shopping in downtown franklin (expensive as well) until i met my mama and daddy for dinner at gray's on main! we had the cornbread skillet with bacon butter as an appetizer and it was yummy in all of our tummies! i ordered one of the best cobb salads i have ever had. while it wasn't necessarily a healthy salad, it was still to-die-for with its toppings of avocado, a deviled egg and watermelon relish! mom ordered the nashville hot chicken which i will say was quite hot but tasty and daddy got the shrimp and grits which looked fab as well! the presentation of everything was great but i will say the service was a little lacking! however, it is certainly a place i would recommend (make reservations though) and one that i want to go back and try out the lunch and sunday brunch menus! after gray's, we splurged and treated ourselves to iveycake with coffee! a cheat day was long over due!  

yesterday i worked the LEONA + Brittany Fuson Pop-Up party! i love brittany's illustrations and she and lauren leonard of LEONA have both inspired me to start drawing again! i bought two of brittany's prints, "berry bouquet" and "cover girls" (both below) to adorn the walls in my apartment! there were so many prints that it was hard to choose which ones i wanted but these two had red-heads in them so they were a must! one day i hope to have her do a custom illustration! she is not only extremely talented but so sweet as well and i loved getting to meet her and talk with her during the party! check out her products online at www.brittanyfuson.com

i think the pop-up party was a hit for both LEONA and Brittany Fuson! i really enjoy working the store and everything about my internship. i couldn't be happier where i am right now and with what i am doing. the people who surround me are amazing, talented and passionate about what they do. this summer is truly a learning experience - i am less than one month in but have learned so much and know i have so much more to learn. i feel like i have found my niche and know that i am headed in the right direction. 

yesterday's outfit was of course LEONA. my LEONA collection is growing more and more each week which i love but my wallet does not (even my phone case is now LEONA)! it is well worth the price though - everything about each piece is top-notch and luxurious. nothing leaves the store unless it is perfect! my dress yesterday was from a few seasons ago but still current, which is another great thing about LEONA. the designs are timeless and can be worn season after season! i paired the tippy dress with some black stripy j. crew midi heels and was ready to work!

i'm not sure what is in store for this lovely sunday! i am going to go on a quick run soon before it heats up then i'm not sure what i will do with my day off! i may treat myself to a single-girl movie or i may soak up some sun! i hope you all spend your sunday doing what you love with the ones you love! 

xoxo,
