Friday Favorites- Birthday Edition!

Tomorrow is my birthday and in true 'me' fashion, I have been preparing the celebration for the past week.  Starting with a small excuse to splurge on birthday shoes! 
 Tan and gold booties from Topshop and Dalmatian printed wedges from Free People
Blue Sequin loafers from Steve Madden (thanks mama!) and sassy studded kitten heels by Ivanka Trump (who knew??).

Free birthday body washes from Aveda and Sephora- love a free gift!
Some birthday beauty buys- Loving the new mascara from Benefit, really adds the dramz to my lashes.  Nail polishes from Urban Outfitters.  The peach is a perfect alternative to your traditional baby pink manicure and the glitter really gives you full coverage without having to layer 5 coats on.
Best decision all week- taking today off from work to lay in my air conditioned bed to blog and catch up on my pile of fashion mags.

Then off to celebrate with friends tonight and treat myself to a spa day tomorrow!
Although at this point my only birthday wish is for the heat to break and go down a full 20 degrees!
