I'm linking up with the 5 on Friday girls again this week and I'm pretty excited about the things I came up with this week!  Enjoy!

I've recently gotten into watch fashion.  I've got to wear a watch at all times because I feel lost without one.  I used to always wear silver watches with a cuff band, but I've really gotten into gold, and who better to look to than Michael Kors!  I really love the tortoise watches, but not the price tag.  Last year I fell in love with the oversized tortoise watch, but at $250, that wasn't going to happen.  I stumbled on a jet set look a like at Target for $14.99 which beat the $225 price tag.

 

Two weeks ago, Christina at Carolina Charm featured this Michael Kors chain link tortoise watch and the Target look a-alike and I was SOLD.  I had already been shopping Target in hopes of them selling it, but had no luck.  However, I hadn't thought about browsing online.  I went straight to their website and found that it was only sold online.  Birthday money well spent on this one.  I love it!

This pretty much speaks for itself.  YUM!  We went on Monday and I got my first one of the season.  It's a good thing we don't live that close to a Krispy Kreme!

I have been wanting this wreath for some time and was so happy when Jason told me to order it for myself as his anniversary gift to me.  I ordered if from bobsidoodle on etsy.  I love how it turned out.  I actually ordered a larger size, but she accidently made me the smaller one.  I was pleased with how this one turned out so I didn't bother with the hassle of getting a different size.  Allison was really great to work with if you're looking for a fun wreath!

I posted about Bryce's first day of school on Wednesday, but didn't link back to his first day of school last year for comparison purposes.  I shared this comparison picture on instagram yesterday.  I just love to look back and see the differences in a year!  You can follow me on instagram @gwhitlock.

 I cleaned out my jewelry box the other day and decided to sell some of the gold pieces that I don't wear anymore.  I know some people hold on to everything, but some of the pieces just weren't my style anymore or they weren't significant, like my monogram ring with my maiden name initials.  However, rediscovering that ring really made me want one of these gold monogrammed necklaces with my married initials.  Of course I had other plans for the money we got from selling the gold so I guess I'll have to hold out for a while before getting one of these beauties.
