Weekend Festivities

This past weekend revolved around celebrating my sweet girlfriend Tara's birthday (see her amazing feather hair pieces in photograph #3) with a night out and girls brunch. In between the festivities I fit in a few coffee dates, a Glitter Guide brainstorming lunch, as well as an afternoon spent making chunky gold necklaces. Busy, relaxing, fun and friend filled!

PS: Have you entered the lastest Glitter Guide giveaway?!

 
Reminder: Blogger meet up this Thursday, Feb 24th @ 6pm - La Lola. Be there!
