Happy Friday!!
We have such a fun weekend ahead! Miss Kensington is having a birthday on Monday, so this weekend is her family birthday party :).
Listen, I know I’ve said this before but I’ll say it again…I love linking up with Erika, Andrea and Narci on Fridays and sharing my favorites. All week, I’ve had a pink sticky note on my desk and I’ve jotted down things that I love to share with you. Here you go…my Friday Favorites…
Back in July, Fancy Ashley blogged about how much she loves The Wet Brush (found at Target) for brushing out her hair post-shower…well, I bought one for Kensington and me to use and let me tell you…it’s life changing. Kensington looooooves this brush so much because it makes brushing her hair so much easier and less painful.
If you or your daughter have a head full of hair that is hard to brush after washing, you should totally try this little brush! I believe it was around $10 at Target.
Speaking of things you can buy at Target…I finally bought some Downy Unstopables per Erika’s recommendation. She has talked about these little things a few times on her blog, so I bought some and added them to my laundry…and they smell so good! Listen, I thought she was kind of silly going on and on about a laundry enhancer…but now, I understand why :).
Apparently, I’ve been talking about my nude flats so much lately that the sweet people at Vince Camuto asked me to try on some more of their shoes and tops and share my thoughts with you…
I thought that was a pretty simple challenge considering about a month ago, I went to Nordstrom and bought this top that just so happens to be Vince Camuto too…
…I bought the navy in a small and right now, the navy & red tops are 50% off!
Click here for the black.
So, I went specifically looking for a new pair of heels to wear this fall and fell in love with this pair…
…it’s a bootie but dressy enough to wear with skirts. Um, hello. I was in love and decided instead of traditional pumps this year, I will be wearing these (also in grey). So, I bought these booties and they came home with me…
…I’m in love.
I also threw on my jeans for another way to style them…
And here are a few other Vince Camuto shoes and tops that are really cute too…
I’m so excited because next Friday, Erika and I are flying to Nashville to meet up with some of our other favorite friends to attend the Dot Mom conference!! This is a wonderful conference celebrating the joys (and stresses) of motherhood for Christian women. I am so excited! If you are in the Nashville area (or can make it there), you should totally come!!
If you’re looking for someone else to follow on Instagram, I love following Jessica Seinfeld (Jerry’s wife). I’ve been following her for over a year now and just LOVE her. She is a food blogger, mom of three, super real, super funny, super honest gal…and I adore on Instagram :).
Am I the only one really excited about the new Shonda Rhimes’ show How to Get Away with Murder? You know Shonda…the creator of Grey’s Anatomy and Scandal…so, I’m super, super, super excited for this new show to start on the 25th!
And one last thing…dinner tonight is my yummy Chocolate Apple Pecan Cobbler…
…listen, chocolate and apples are a fabulous combination. Trust me.
Happy Friday!
XOXO

I love the booties!!! I have those same flats (and I have them in black too) and I love them. I live in Nashville and want to go to that conference. Unfortunately I just went back to work from maternity leave and have no vacation time. 🙁
Shearrer Family says
I'm so excited you will be at dotmom. I went to the one in Dallas and it was amazing! Maybe I will see you there. There is a group of 8 of us making the trip from South TX. Can't wait because I've never been to Nashville either.
Christine says
Totally agree on the WetBrush – we have three of them. As a mom of two girls, I'm so glad that I discovered this early on!
Kim says
After your recommendation, I watched the trailer for How to Get Away with Murder. I am making a note of it. My husband and I need something new we can watch together. This looks hot! Thanks for the lead!

I LOVE the laundry scents. I found a tip on Pinterest to put them in a wax melter (with a tea light). I keep it in my laundry and mudroom and it always smells so fresh and clean!
Eryn Morel says
We have the wet brush and it is awesome 🙂
Sarah E @ theteacherswife.com says
I so wish I could make it to Nashville….I love that city and I have heard so many good things about dotMom. If it weren't so close to my due date, I'd totally be there!! Have fun!
Johnna Bradley says
I am obsessed with Scandal and am also super excited to watch how to get away with murder. I can't wait for September 25th!
I am definitely going to be buying the wet brush next time I am at Target. Thanks for the recommendation!
Queen In Between says
That Dessert!! I have not had breakfast yet and that looks Ah-mazing!
the girl in the red shoes says
I've been meaning to pick up the unstoppables after seeing Erika post about how awesome they are! Adding them to my list right now. And I'm excited for that new show too…can't wait!
Brianna says
You're totally rockin' those booties, girl! And, I'm super, unnaturally excited for How to get Away with Murder! Is it the 25th yet?!?!

Shay- I live in Nashville. Since you're a foodie, I definitely recommend going to The Southern (http://thesouthernnashville.com/) downtown and if you also have time, head down to The Row (http://therownashville.com/). Both places are delicious and give you a great feel for Nashville!!

The brush is amazing. We found one 1 1/2 years ago in Kauai. My daughter saw it and she has a terrible time brushing her hair. And it changed our mornings and post shower too. Amazing and I just saw them the other day at target. Love!
Love the boots but living up north would not get a chance to wear them. We are already freezing and thinking of getting the uggs out. But so cute!
Jenna {Real Simple Girl} says
I have one of those brushes and love it too! On another note, which foundation are you using these days? I'm almost out of the Bobbi Brown tinted moisturizer and thought maybe I should try something else this time.
Melissa says
We love the wet brush too! As cheesy as it sounds it really was life changing for us. We now own several and my girls never cry over hair brushing anymore.
Kim Taylor says
Nope! We are super excited about the new show How to Get Away with Murder too! Happy Friday!
Bethany says
Hey Shay! I'm from Brentwood, which is right outside of Nashville! I hope y'all have a wonderful trip! Nashville is such a great city!!
Jamie Ross says
Hey Shay!
I'm loving your favorites! Those booties are so adorable! have so much fun on your trip! 🙂

LOVE those nude flats!
Jamers says
So I ran to The Limited today to get this leopard belt I tried on previously but didn't buy. But felt I needed it NOW because of you and PTMT! As I was checking out the salesgirl told me that the Scandal stylists and The Limited are having a collaboration in stores starting on 9/23 and you can sign up to be notified of it and the in store event! Some of the clothes will be clothes actually featured on Scandal and some are just a collab with their stylists. Sorry for the longwinded comment but just wanted to alert you Scandal fans!
Kelly @ Familiar Joy says
I'm am literally counting down the days until Scandal starts!!! Eeeekkkk!!! I feel like it's been forever! Best show ever!
Lisa Loves John says
The wet brush is indeed life changing!! And I'm a bit skeptical that I will like How to Get Away with Murder, but I'm excited to watch and see!
Jeanie says
Happy birthday to sweet Kensington. I'm also wearing my nude flats today, but mine are by Coach (several years old). I love the booties you bought!
Colleen Sullivan says
Oh I just loooove Downy Unstopables! Huge laundry game changer 🙂 And those Camuto boots!
amoveableme.com says
Oh, that conference has been one that I have wanted to go to each year… Angie Smith and Jennie Allen… It will be AMAZING!
Angie says
I have never tried the Downy Unstoppables but have always wanted to. Next time I'm at the store, I'll have to grab some 🙂
Those BOOTIES are AMAZING 🙂
Chelsea V. says
I sure hope you write a blog about your Nashville trip! You've got to check out local coffee shop Ugly Mugs while you're here. Also, you would LOVE Lockeland Table in East Nashville!

Nice Post!
