Friday Five

February 3, 2017

Happy Friday!

Here’s this week’s edition of Edit by Lauren “Friday Five,” highlighting five random things I have been loving this week!

1. These denim shorts. I jumped the gun on buying my first pair of shorts for the season this week because these Pilcro denim shorts at Anthropologie were just too good to pass up! The cuff makes the length adjustable. {I am wearing them the shorter length here, so they can go longer.} Take my word for it, it is difficult to a great pair of denim shorts under $100! This super-flattering pair is affordable in my book at $68. It may seem early purchase shorts, but a pair this good won’t last long! They run true to size.

2. FASTer Way to Fat Loss. Speaking of these shorts, I was thrilled to realize this week that I had dropped a size! If you follow me on social media, have heard me gab A LOT about the FASTER Way to Fat Loss program I am doing. I am on week four, loving it, and have already dropped a pant size!! {Goodbye holiday pounds!} I have honestly never been successful at sticking to any type of nutrition program in the past for more than a few days, and this one has been a TOTAL game changer for me.

I just signed up for my second round, that will kick off February 27th. I would love for any and all of you to join me! There is also a round starting February 13th for any of you ready to get started sooner! Click here to learn more and to sign up. Feel free to email me with any and all questions! I attribute much of my success to doing this with three friends, and the community aspect is amazing. I am happy to hold your hand along the way if you sign up!

3. My Corkcicle Tumbler. If you follow me on Instagram and/or Snapchat, you see me carrying my Corkcicle Tumbler everywhere. This amazing tumbler keeps drinks cold for 9 hours and hot for 3 hours. I love my Rose Quartz one, but this stylish thermos comes in over 20 colors! I also love that I can add essential oils to my water and iced tea in this tumbler since it is stainless steal. {For outfit details on the above picture, click here.}

4. This striped tee. Every gal needs a classic striped tee for year-round wear, but particularly for going into Spring. I’ve been on the hunt for a new one the past few months and finally found the perfect one! It is super soft and fits true to size. {I have it in a size XS for reference.} It also comes in multiple colors! This tee is also a super cute, more affordable option. And these earrings make the cutest Valentine’s Day present…they also come in hot pink!

5. This boho dress. I shot this Free People dress for the blog yesterday, so I will be doing a full feature on it soon, but wanted to go ahead and add it to the roundup today, because it is 25% off and under $100 for a limited time! I am all about dresses when it comes in transitioning into Spring, and this one is just gorgeous. It comes in three colors, and can be layered with a leather jacket and boots now and then worn with sandals later. I am wearing a size 4, for size reference, and have this lace bralet, that is currently on sale for just $13, layered under it.
