{Thrifting} Thrifting Lately: Sweater Weather

I got back into thrifting after the holidays and it's been so fun!  On my first thrifting adventure I found three sweaters and a pair of leggings.
This one is so soft and I love the feminine detail and neutral color.
This is another femininely detailed sweater. I thought it would be good for the summer.
I didn't get the best photo of this striped number but it has the cutest puffy shoulders and a v-neck.
Some new-ish leggings for yoga.  On my next thrifting trip, I came home with three sweaters, a sweatshirt, a workout top and some home goods --oh and a book!
Sweater #1-perfect for Valentine's Day!
This Lauren Conrad sweatshirt didn't look like much on the hanger but I loved the color and it was super soft.
It looked so much better after I washed it!
Sweater #2 - I don't have any sweaters in this color green and though it would be cute for the holidays, I think it's fine for the cold weather we've been getting.
Sweater #3-I was looking for a burgundy sweater and while this J. Crew sweater is more of a berry, it still came home with me.  Willow likes it too!
I like to have layers for yoga these days and this Athleta top was a great find!

I picked up this book for the title and the color of the spine. It looks nice as decor and maybe I'll read it too! 
I also picked up this brand new looking Pampered Chef mini stoneware baker.  I've already used it a few times and it's been perfect. The Pampered Chef stoneware is amazing.   I made a half recipe of this old favorite (pictured above).
Mushroom Spinach & Sundried Tomato Vegan Quiche
Yum!
I bought this Pioneer Woman utensil crock because I liked the blue side and was going to put it above my cabinets with some other blue and white pieces that I've been collecting.  Instead, I swapped out my white utensil crock to see how it looked and I'm loving the pop of color on the counter (I keep it turned around because I prefer the blue and white side).  It may eventually go above the cabinets but for now it's fuctional.

One more pic, I'm wearing the heart sweater today! Have you been thrifting lately?

{DIY} Yoga Mat Cleaner

This was a quick and easy gift idea that I made for my daughters and my BFF (and one for me!).
My yoga studio used to make their own mat cleaner and I was able to find a lot recipes online to create my own.
The basic ingredients are: Distilled water, alcohol free witch hazel(I used Thayers brand), tea tree oil and other anti bacterial essential oils of your choice. I used  a lavender and peppermint blend.   You could also use lemongrass and/or eucalyptus.
I found these cute glass spray bottles that were 4 ounces and mixed each batch up in a measuring cup.
To make: I used 3 ounces of distilled water, 1 ounce of witch hazel,  20 drops of tea tree oil and 10 drops each of the lavender and peppermint essential oils. I used a funnel to fill up the bottles.
I had plenty to make 4 bottles worth and lots of leftover for refills.
I labeled the bottles and added some bakers twine 
I love having (and gifting) an all natural yoga mat cleaner.
To use the yoga mat cleaner: Shake bottle then spray  a light coat over the yoga mat and wipe with a clean cloth.

Birthday Weekend and Happenings

Sorry I've been MIA for a few days and haven't been able to blog but I'm back and ready to share my birthday weekend happenings from last weekend.
 They started with some flowers from Mr. Click-I love the fall colors!
This made my mom heart explode to see my girls together in Dublin and having fun.  It was the perfect birthday gift!
 Onto the celebrations...
 We headed into the city for the evening.
 First  stop was dinner at Bar Bombon (a vegan Latin tapas restaurant) and I had their Puerto Rican punch of the day. Everything was delicious and hard to believe it was all vegan. The Spanish meatballs in romensco were fabulous!   We had some time after dinner and did a little shopping and walking around. I used my birthday coupon at Anthropologie!
We walked about 10 blocks (gotta burn off all of that good food!) and  arrived at the Walnut Street Theatre to see Irving Berlin's Holiday Inn,
 I love the movie Holiday Inn so I was excited to see what the musical was all about. The hubs had never seen it so it was all new to him.
 It may sound strange that they were running a holiday show in early October but the show isn't just about the winter holidays and takes us through an entire year.
 There were lots of familiar songs and the staging, cast and costumes (so many costume changes!!) were spectacular!

The fun didn't end there and we went to see A Star Is Born on Saturday night. It was amazing. Who knew Bradley Cooper could sing and he also directed the movie. I see Oscars in their future!!
 The humidity was taking a toll on my hair and I was so ready for a cut and color!
 Soooo much better!
I got a new 'toy' for my birthday and it's a beaut! I'm still getting used to it and that's why I didn't get much blogging done last week.
I ended my birthday weekend with a beautiful restorative Ganesh yoga workshop. Bliss!

Four On Friday

Happy Friday! Here's what I've been...

Eating...fresh mango and blackberries (from Costco). So good!

Smelling...this sheer citron soy candle from Target. It smells exactly like the pricey Capri Blue one from Anthropologie that I love.
Below is the size comparison of the two candles.  They each cost around $12.
Wearing...some new yoga duds from Old Navy. They have some really cute active wear on sale right now.
Reading...this book for book club.
When I picked it up at the library, this little post it note was in the front cover.

What have you been up to?
