Weekday Wrap Up

January 11, 2013 by · 16 Comments

Boom. It’s Friday. 
This has been one of the first weeks in awhile that didn’t involve a holiday or day off. 
And that makes me sad…so I say let’s make up a new holiday for all those who need an extra break after New Years.

Let’s get into the wrap up:

I went to a blowout and braids soiree at 
Lotus Salon and Spa in Costa Mesa.
I was spoiled to say the least. 
I was paired up with Jill, the one on the far left.
But I would have been in good hands with any of these stylists…look how gorg they all are!

I’m sure you recognize some faces in the crowd.
This event was put on by Carly from Lipgloss and Crayons.
&
the attendees were
Alissa from Rags to Stitches
Nat from Take the Cannoli
Andrea from For the Love of…
Miriam from Simply Classic

If you are looking for an Orange County Salon to get your hair all beautiful for a night out, go to Lotus Salon.
All the girls looked incredible and had so much fun.
It was a perfect morning!

 Then this week I hurt my neck.
You might have heard me whining in pain all over twitter and instagram. I could barely turn around it hurt so bad.
I bit the bullet and went to a chiro.
Here is an X-ray from that visit:

The red line is where my neck is. Then the green line is where my neck should be. 
To say I have bad posture, that’s an understatement. I imagine if I stood up straighter…I wouldn’t be 5 ft, I would be 5’5.
Truth.

 Then I had my instagram-ers help me pick a new Kate Spade purse.
It was pretty close on which one you liked!

I went with the purse on the right!
Let’s just say…I am in love. Welcome to the family, Kate.

Then finally, Ernie and I tried a new movie theater experience. 

There is a new luxury movie theater called Cineopolis in 
Rancho Santa Margarita. 
Whoa.
Leather power recliners, a button to call a waiter, amazing sangria, huge cup holders, a table to hold your food…
I will never go to a regular theater again!
Plus the ticket was $20, so when you think about it…that is just $7 more than normal prices.
Worth it if you are seeing a long movie!

So that was my week, if you want to link up a post about your week…check below.

    My posture is so bad! It’s to the point where it actually hurts to stand/sit up straight, I should probably get my butt to a chiro!

    I need to try one of those movie theaters! I think we have a few here in Phoenix….is it just wine or do they serve beer/liquor??

    I hate you’re in pain, but I understand you on the bad posture. Mine is awful too!

    I’ve been telling my husband to take me to Cinepolis at Ocean Ranch for for-ev-VER now, and he still hasn’t taken me. Now that the one in RSM is open, with better restaurants near by, maybe he’ll finally take me.

    I’m so sad I missed the Lotus Spa get-together! I told Carly to keep me posted but with everything she’s got goin’ on it must’ve slipped her mind. I have to get on the Pollinate mailing list or something…

    We have a theater sort of like that here, but it is called Movie Tavern. You can eat and drink and call the waiter whenever you need them, but the tickets aren’t $20. I think they are like $10, maybe $12 at the most. It is always a good time!

    Sorry to hear about your neck bothering you – that x-ray is crazy!
    That movie theater.. WOW! I’ve never heard of a luxury movie theater!!

    LOVE the braided hair! We have a dine-in movie theater by us too. Totally spoils you-I never want to go to the regular theater. I want the cushy leather reclining chairs all.the.time. :)

    That braid is amazing! Absolutely stunning on you. And eek on the neck trouble, that is never fun.

    I live in Orange County and looking for a new salon…I’ll have to try Lotus out. All those women are GORGEOUS!! And I love what Jill did with your hair.

    I’ve been wanting to buy that exact Kate Spade purse, but something in me keeps me from forking over $350+!! I just can’t!
