Weekend Roundup

I hope you all have been having a wonderful week!  Here are some links and favorites from this week:

 I have a new hair tutorial up over on A Beautiful Mess!  This hair style is especially cute for 50s/60s inspired outfits. 

I've been making more of an effort to buy more separates this season.  These tops from Lulu's are things I'd like to see in my closet!

These oven s'mores from Jen of Jen Loves Kev looking AMAZING.  I am definitely making these soon!!


The winner of the iconemesis giveaway is:

**If you want a good laugh, you should definitely pop over to the Friendly Fox and check out Annie's "Big Jacob, Little Spaces" series.  Her kid is so darn cute & hilarious!
**Don't forget, the Emerging Thoughts codes are good through the end of May.  Use "katie" to receive 30% off the Beatrice Holloway collection and the code "skunkboy" for 15% off everything else!
**I don't know how many of you are already familiar with Craftgawker, but I've been finding lots of fun crafts and inspiration over there!  

I will be posting some giveaways in the next day or two, so be sure to check back.  Have a wonderful weekend, friends!

    You should try homemade graham crackers for your smores!

    I used this recipe: http://chocolateandcarrots.com/2012/05/homemade-whole-wheat-graham-crackers.

    And mine looked like this: http://maelivefree.blogspot.com/2012/05/homemade-graham-crackers.html

    That hairstyle is so cute and those smores look delicious! I hope this doesn't seem spammy, but I would really love it if you could share my handmade jewelry giveaway with your readers. http://happeningsfromanundisclosedlocation.blogspot.com/2012/05/happy-monday-giveaway.html

    I made the smores and they are every bit as delicious as they look, and also quick and easy! The hardest part is waiting for the chocolate to harden before you eat them :)

    Hi! I found your blog via a beautiful mess and all your cute hair tutorials. When I saw them I thought to myself that it's easy enough some someone young without kids to fix their hair like that. Way to go for first impressions huh? =) When I found out you have two little ones I was so impressed and a bit jealous. My 5 months old is ripping my hair out chunk by chunk if I don't keep it in a quick braid or bun. I feel that I can never have may hair let out, and the mommy-style I'm rocking is getting a bit old with it's pinned back bangs and sloppy bun. Any ideas for a quick baby-friendly hairdo?

    i like hairstyles i want to say that i can serme whole life to the hairstyles i can easily do this i like it.hairstyles are a primitive one and often linked with the popular and hairstyles demanding styles in 60s and 70s both in men and women. A parallel hairstyles approach is still followed for girls and women in modern hairstyles amazing hairstyle with a little long hair styles untidy that confers a rock & roll look to your hair. This curly hairstyles. style has gone through slight changes over the time. Unlikely to older styles.
