That Friday Feeling

by thatblonderebelLeave a Comment on That Friday Feeling

Happy Friday, y’all. Wow, does it feel good to be here. This week has been nuts. Still feeling sick, working, and I came home two nights ago to find water and mold on the walls and ceiling of my apartment. Which led to a full blown panic and sub sequential breakdown on Instagram Stories (if you didn’t see it, I’m glad they go away after 24 hours because I just straight up lost it lol). It turns out the compressor in my AC stopped working, letting lots of moisture and air causing the mold. I’m so glad this is fixable and doesn’t require me to move. No one should be moving in the city of Houston in July. It’s just too damn hot.

So here we are. After all that, it’s Friday and we made it! I’m ready for it to be 5:00 because I’m headed to Austin with my mom for a gals weekend getaway and I’m getting pampered with a massage on Saturday, so definitely looking forward to that!

On a lighter note, I’m so happy to be sharing a new look with y’all. It involved pleats, and florals, and pink, oh yea!

Hi beautiful friends and happy Monday!

I hope everyone had a great weekend. I had a long weekend. I ventured home to San Antonio last Wednesday night and came back to Houston last night. I laid out, I relaxed, and I napped. Talk about a mini vacay! But I’m diving back into the work week before heading to Austin for a mini getaway at the Omni with my mama!

Here’s a feminine, floral look with pretty pleats! Linking what’s still available below 🙂

Wedding Recap: San Antonio Edition

by thatblonderebelLeave a Comment on Wedding Recap: San Antonio Edition

Hi Friends!

Last weekend I was in my 13th wedding. Yes, you read that correctly. Lucky number 13!

I grew up with the bride, Judith, in San Antonio and this weekend was an affair to remember! Sharing all the iPhone pics, deets on what I wore, and where I was!

Rehearsal Dinner

The rehearsal dinner was at La Fonda on Main, a perfect venue for a summer soiree!

Getting Ready

My mom and Megan’s mom hosted our getting ready party on Saturday at the Cellars at the Pearl. It was enough space for all of us to nurse our margarita headaches with some breakfast tacos and chick fil a, while the makeup and hair peeps helped us put our best faces forward
