Friday Randoms

by Ally- Life as I know it, 9:13 AM

Woo hoo to the weekend! We have friends coming over tonight for dinner and a friend's going away party on Saturday. Maybe Pixie will get her little way and we'll go to the beach on Sunday. She loves playing in the water!


Here's what I'm loving on this Friday morning:


~Rent the Runway is now making it easy for us to carry our favorite designers for cheap! It's called Rent the Runway Unlimited. You pay $75 a month and receive three designer pieces that you picked out. You can keep them for as long as you want, till you're ready to swap them out for something else! Shipping is free both ways and you can cancel your membership at anytime. It sounds too good to be true to me. Obviously if you choose not to return the item they will charge you for it.! What do you think? To be able to carry a Claire Vivier clutch, while wearing a Missoni dress and a Kenneth Jay Lane necklace for only $75 month sounds pretty sweet! Now I just have to convince my husband!



~ Sick of your man losing weight easily while you're eating salads and the scale still isn't budging? Experts are saying men might be onto something and why we should eat more like a man if we want to lose weight. 



~ Finally those ugly, unflattering shoes will be gone! Say bye bye to the sponge shoe aka Crocs!



~ Bloody Mary's got a healthy makeover and they actually look pretty refreshing.
Cherry Tomato Bloody Mary



~ Have you checked out the trailer for 50 Shades of Grey? I don't really like the cast they picked. I always imagined Christian Grey being taller and statuesque. Will I go see the movie in February, oh I'm sure!


Have a great weekend!

    So I have to say I'm a little sad to see Crocs go - not because I wear them, but my nieces and nephew wear them and they are really comfy for them!! The 50 shades trailer was really good...I agree casting could have been a bit better - but hey like you said we'll still go see it! Hope you have a great weekend!

    Oh that bloody mary sounds good! So glad someone else shares my love for them! I agree about the casting for 50 Shades.. I didn't read the books but I'm not convinced with the guy playing Christian!

    I think the RTR deal sounds pretty convincing...I might have to look into it further. Let us know if you're able to convince your hubby :) I'm excited about the 50 shades trailer even though I wasn't initially thrilled with the casting...

    I think the Ana they picked is ok, but the Christian ... idk. He's not hot enough? Lol :)

    That drink looks amazing... yum! And I agree with you on the cast of 50 Shades. Not happy with them at all. She kind of reminds me of Kristen Stewart as Bella. Over acting and making it seem weird. Just not as happy with them as I hoped to be!

    I do have to say I like Crocs for kids - a shoe that can get dirty and is easily cleaned. And easily slips on and off. But for me? Heck no! That Runway Unlimited idea sounds really good...

    i agree about the 50 shades cast. i always thought christian grey would have more of a defined face. his looks like a little baby face i want to squish. right there with you... probably will go see it too.

    we're headed to beach today! can't wait. hope you have a great weekend :)

    Wow that's an awesome deal on RTR especially for brides-to-be or what not. Can't justify the cost right now, but maybe later...? I say Fifty Shades, wine and Cinebarre come February! Have a great weekend!
