Favorite Things: In An Instant

It’s been a while since I’ve done a little instagram adventures recap so I figured there’s no time like the present to catch up.

I’m kind of obsessed with instagram because it’s just the good stuff – the pictures and interesting (or sometimes not as interesting – depends on who you ask) snippets of people’s lives. I try not to inundate my feed with too much silliness but obviously there are moments I can’t help it. I also can’t help snapping pics of the little man from time to time.  These are just some of my favorite moments, so if you want the whole shebang follow along here.

Favorite Things: Snap Shots

Getting back into the swing of things this week has been nice but I am definitely ready for a weekend break. That first full week back after the holidays is always a rude awakening and while Monday lasted for AGES, the rest of the week has gone by pretty quickly. It’s crazy how quick you fall right back into a routine.

But before moving on and hitting the New Year head on, I thought I’d do a quick instagram (follow along @louwhatwear) recap of my holiday fun.

Here’s to a year full of new adventures!

Clockwise:  An amazing TV appearance on WHAS with Angie Fenton for The Salvation Army with a 94 year-old bell-ringing volunteer (inspiring!); The most fun Kate Spade present from my co-worker & friend Elizabeth; Beauty goodies snagged for myself while out Christmas shopping; a little snap of my Courier-Journal feature. 

 Baking up a storm before Christmas; My two best guys celebrating with Christmas cocktails; A much-needed night out with the girls at La Coop; My neon attire for girl’s night. 

 The BEST road trip find – Reese’s Chocolate Bars!; SO excited for Nola; Snap shots from Royal Street. 

 Ringing in the New Year with Baili; First night out on Bourbon Street with Alex, Mallory and the hubs; Celebrating the Cardinals Sugar Bowl win; Pre-game action. 

Sneaking in a little jazz at Kermit’s Speakeasy on NYE; A little snap before a ridiculously delicious dinner at Dominica hosted by my greatest friend Caroline’s family. 

 Back to work bling from Shop Jami & Gigglosophy; the best surprise late Christmas gift – a classic Coach bag; Trying to step up my hair game for work along with my new Jewelry Nut Auctions necklace; my best boy enjoying his new red wagon.

Adventures in Instagram

November has been fun.

After a crazy September and October, it felt like I finally had time to catch up. I love a good wedding but it was nice to finally slow down from this year’s wedding madness (we went to 12 and unfortunately couldn’t go to two that we were invited to. That’s a lot of wedding weekends!) and reclaim my weekends. I also finally got to check out a unique local boutique, enjoy holiday festivities and spend a day at the track with some of my favorite friends. Add in lots of fun with family and it was a great month, definitely something to be thankful for.

So to wrap it all up (I know there are still two more days in the month), here’s a little recap of my November told in instagrams. If you’ve been following along already (@louwhatwear), you’ve probably seen some (or most) of these so you’ll just have to humor me today.

p.s. – I’ve got a couple {pretty sweet} giveaways on deck and ready to go once I reach 550 likes on Facebook. So head over and like the page (or share the news), so we can get those treats on here ASAP.

Clockwise: Kicking off the month with the last wedding of the season – Engle/Moore flower goodness; Voting in red, blue & leopard; Ad Fed Day at the Downs with the work crew; Unexpected goodies from C&C California
