Friday Favorites #64

Happy Friday, everyone! I hope you’ve had a great week! I’ve been very busy, and I’m picking up an extra desk shift at the barre studio today, so I’m looking forward to having time to catch up on my own things later today and tomorrow. I’m also excited that my hubby and I are going to go look at a townhouse that we’re interested in renting when our lease is up at the end of February. We hate the company we’re currently renting from and they’re asking for astronomically high rent if we resign our lease, so we’re going to get the heck out of Dodge, so to speak, and are looking to move into a new place in the same general area where we’re currently living.

Like I do every Friday, I’m linking up with the lovely, sweet, and amazing Heather over at Life in Leggings for Friday Favorites. Here’s what I’m loving this week:

Bauble Bar headphones. I was so excited when I heard about the partnership Bauble Bar had going with Target on some electronics, and I finally broke down and “splurged” on their rose gold in-ear headphones. (They’re only $20, so not too big of a splurge.) The sound is great, and they have a little microphone that my husband says sounds very clear on calls. And, they even have little rhinestones at the ends of the earbuds, so you get a little extra bling when you have them in. LOVE. I’m a little obsessed with them, and have been using them a lot this week as I’m listening to podcasts.

ProBlogger Podcast. Speaking of listening to podcasts, one of the podcasts I’ve been listening to is the the ProBlogger podcast, and I’d highly recommend it to any of my blogging friends reading this. Darren has some great ideas on how to market your blog and get more people’s eyes on your content, helping you to reach and help more people. Win-win.

meditations from the mat

Meditations from the Mat. This book is so amazing. If you don’t own it but are looking to deepen your yoga practice this year, especially if you want to deepen your practice mentally, definitely buy this book. There’s a short passage to read and reflect on for each day of the year. I bought the book last year, and I’m so excited to be able to fully use it this year. I’m already underlining a ton of quotes and thoughts that I’m hoping to share on the blog eventually.

Working at the barre studio. I’m feeling particularly blessed this week by all of the amazing people at my barre studio. Last night a friend/client posted to Facebook about the progress she’s seen over the past six months or so, and thanked all of us teachers at the studio for helping to inspire and push her. Our clients at the studio are just so amazing and thoughtful and I love each and every one of them. I also love that our studio is so accepting and encouraging; there is no judgment, no matter what you look like or what your ability level is. We simply ask that you do the best you can on that day. I am so very, very lucky to work at such an amazing place.

  1. I’m so happy for you that you love your barre studio and the community. I will definitely check out the problogger podcast once I get home and get my mind back on business!

    • I’m happy, too. I felt a little lost here until I found the barre studio. So grateful for everything it’s brought me. And do check out that podcast–you’ll love it!

  2. Ahhh, the barre studio. I sure to miss that kind of environment! Those rose gold earbuds are adorable. I might need to pick some up. Good luck with the townhouse search, and enjoy the weekend! xo

  3. I love those earbuds. Definitely a good price given I always lose my headphones within a few months haha. I can never justify spending $100 on a pair! No big plans for me for the holiday weekend. Focusing on relaxing and getting myself organized as the new semester picks up.

    • I’m the same way, Brie! I can do $20 on headphones, but I couldn’t imagine spending $100+ on headphones unless I suddenly start making three times as much money as I do. Have a great weekend relaxing–that sounds wonderful!

  4. I’ve probably been reading my bible the most as well as a couple other small books. Those headphones are really shiny and pretty.

    • Definitely do! There are a lot of cute things in the Bauble Bar line, including over ear headphones and even neat little portable battery packs for charging your electronics. They did a great job on the collection.

    • Yes, Katie, do it! You will NOT be disappointed! I am completely obsessed with them right now. Like I go out of my way to listen to podcasts now. 😉

  7. Love those headphones! I don’t wear headphones as often as I once did or I’d run out and get them!

    • Definitely do, Wendy! You may have to pick and choose episodes that are applicable to your blog (I know I have), but Darren has some really great ideas. You might really like the episodes he did around the new year about planning out the year for your blog and planning out your content.

  9. I hope you liked the townhome!!!

    And I love that you love your work and the people there and the people who come in 🙂

    • Thanks, Kim! We did like it! We’re now chatting with the owner (a childhood friend of my hubby’s) about what we need to do about getting the lease going and signed. Exciting!
