Happy Friday! I’m home from New Orleans and am of course completely inspired by the food, the culture, and the architecture of Louisiana… as you will soon see!  It was an absolutely amazing week teaching my sixth Thrive Mastermind Retreat where we had 21 amazing women in the most gorgeous plantation mansion.  It was right out of a dream. This week’s favorite five are helping me keep my dream a little more vivid.

Favorite Fashion: These emerald pumps found on WhimsicalWonderlandWeddings.com and photographed by Ellie Gillard would look stunning in the French Quarter.

Favorite Creative:  Love these clever and sassy outdoor rugs by Etsy Creative Eryn Makes. In fact I have her ‘Welcome to the Hood’ rug that I got for our backyard makeover last summer.

Favorite Food:  The Beignets are as amazing in New Orleans as you imagine they would be. I found a traditional New Orleans recipe from Sugar & Charm so now you find out for yourself.
