Hello sweet people :) And happy, happy Friday! I really hope that you know where the title of my post came from...the songs "Scrubs" by TLC! Hello 6th grade memories! When you read my #5 at the end of this post, you'll see where the title comes in ;)
As usual, I'm linking up with Lauren at From My Grey Desk to share with you guys my top 5 favorite things from this past week.
one//
I don't have a picture for this one, but last Friday I ran my fastest mile EVER. 7:16! That's huge for me! Especially because I ran it outside rather than on the treadmill. About 5 weeks ago, my outside mile was 10:03...huge improvement! Big thanks to Amanda for giving me some running advice!

I was pretty stoked when I saw this yesterday! And you know who I have to thank? YOU! :)
three//
Adam surprised me and came over after work one day :) I threw together a quick dinner, and while I was cooking he sat on the back patio and fed the ducks. Look at how close they came up - they were eating the bread right out of his hands!
four//
I woke up on Thursday morning and saw this sweet, sweet email on my phone. Seriously made my day! I'm so thankful for people who take the time to be kind & genuine. Thank you Nichola :)

You know that saying, "When you look good you feel good?" Well I normally wear jeans and a v-neck to work, because I hate waking up early to get ready. I'm a baby, I know. Plus, I work with my family and a bunch of 30+ year old dudes (excluding Adam, but I rarely see him at work) so I really don't care about looking fabulous at work.
My younger brother really cares about appearance and always gives me a hard time for dressing "scrubby" at work. So this week I took the time to get ready and dress nice for work. And I'll admit, it did feel pretty good :) Here are a few of my outfits:
dress: Zara // shoes: Penney's
jean jacket: Levi Store // necklace: Forever 21
top & skirt: Cotton On
shoes: Payless
top: LOFT
skirt & bracelet: Forever21
And just an FYI - I doubt this will be a weekly thing...I like my sleep too much. Jeans & v-necks it is ;)
.............................
Enjoy your long weekend, friends! I'm hoping to spend a lot of my time outside in the beautiful Florida sunshine!

Ahhh I love the duck picture.
ReplyDeleteI need to work on dressing up even if I don't have something going on or people to see too. There is just something about being put together. What kind of business does your family run?
ReplyDeleteI have been trying to put myself together more when I'm not at work since when I'm at work I wear a costume (uniform) haha. You really do feel a lot better about yourself when you're wearing some cute clothes and feel put together =) Now I just wish I looked as put together as you when I go out, haha
ReplyDeleteHaha My picture is in your Google Friend Connect picture. My friend messaged me and told me I'm famous lol

ReplyDeleteI can't believe how close the ducks got to you guys...usually they are such scaredy cats!

Those ducks are too cute! How sweet that they eat right out of your hands. Those outfits are fantastic! I definitely understand how difficult it can be to get dressed up in the mornings. Keep up the good work :)

It's so true - when you look good you feel good! I know it's dorky but I put my outfits together before I go to bed at night so there's no thinking about it in the morning :)
ReplyDeletestopping by from Hollie takes notes...Fabulous blog. You are too cute and love your outfits. Have to agree with you when you look good you feel good. Always a motivation to put the extra work in being fit and putting together cute outfits! BTW awesome time on running. Seriously impressive. I have never done faster than 8:30 and I am not a runner. Can't find the love for it. I stick with the weights! Haha
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to more of your posts. :)
