{Five Fab} For the Weekend Vol. 6

Hey fabs. What a week it has been. As I sit here writing this, I am still somewhat in a state of shock at how the presidential election turned out but I have been trying to do everything that I can to keep myself positive & productive. How about you?

Here’s this week’s Fab Five..

Shop:  After having seen it numerous times when I opened my Starbucks app & in need of something frivolous to smile about, I snagged this super cute Starbucks Siren Gold Crown Double Wall Traveler.  It has apparently been selling out & getting restocked and I am stoked I was able to snag one because white and gold are my colors!!

Wear: The weather has still been pretty mild here, so I have been pretty laid back fashion wise. But I am getting major stoked for, is all the fun & sparkle of holiday dressing.  I don’t do a lot of formal events normally during the season but that does not stop me from wanted to get my sparkle on.

Last year I rocked this gorgeous green sequin Badgley Mischka dress and I am very excited that there are a ton of  fabulous sequin plus size options this year.

Here are a few sequin pieces that I am loving!

Read:  I don’t know if this will come as a surprise or not, but I love romance books. I love the diversion of escaping into someone else’s life with a good romance, so this week’s read is All That Glitters by Alisa Valdes-Rodriguez.  It’s an easy read with likable characters and a good story line. The Kindle edition is currently just $1.99.

The tale of a young Latina professional cheerleader in Houston with dreams of being a photojournalist, who finds a mentor in a powerful older African American woman sports agent. As their friendship grows, each woman ends up mentoring the other as they each seek to balance love, life and career. Satisfying romances for both women, with men you come to love. Poignant tale of friendship and family.

Watch: Joe has been in a serious comedy mood so I have seen way more stand-up videos than normal as of late.  We recently watched Trevor Noah: African American. I have never watched Trevor’s Comedy Central show, so this was basically my introduction to him and I loved it, It is currently available on Netflix & Amazon for viewing/purchase.




Drink/Eat:  After this crazy week, this girl is definitely in need of a good “drank” and this Autumn Spiced Rum Cider sounds like it would hit the spot.



Yassss to the Weekend!
