Lots of Friday Favorites: November 29, 2024


   

It's time for my Friday link up with  A Little Bit of Everything and Momfessionals

On Fridays I share things that made me happy from the week - a photo, a song, a quote, a beauty product, a recipe, a pair of cute shoes, etc. If it's a product, sometimes it's something I actually own and sometimes something I just saw online that gave me a smile. Sometimes it's serious and sometimes it's silly. I suppose I believe that God is in the simple details of life and yes, I can even find Him in a tube of lipstick.

Hello! Hope everyone had the best Thanksgiving! We had a great time with my dad here all week and two sister-in-laws and one brother-in-law joining us for Thanksgiving dinner.

So, we're on to shopping, right???? Let's head to the Amazon, shall we? Every year I try to get a few ideas from the boys to share for adult-ish guy ideas. Let me tell you what I got from the two oldest who are now out of college and working in the real world. Cue the sad trombone.

One asked for an ironing board and an iron. One asked for prescription glasses. 


Kids, don't be in a hurry to grow up. I refuse to share an ironing board on Friday Favorites. Let's start with what we can buy for our husbands to give us.

Holiday 'Fits

Last week I talked about how there are bows everywhere and this sequined dress with a bow on the back is, as my mom would say, "Just darlin".

Friends, I have no where to wear this dress, but it popped up in my Instagram feed about ten times. Even if I did have some where to wear it, I'm not sure if sequins are a thing I should put on my body at this juncture.

Amazon also has a version that is 1/2 as much and comes in six colors. 

If you are looking for bows but not for bling, this sweater is cute and could be worn with jeans. I also have no where to wear this, but it's more my speed.


Except for the restroom issues, I love a jumpsuit with my whole heart and it's a comfortable option for a holiday party. This one is on sale and has good reviews. 

For My Actual Life Which Doesn't Involve Fancy Holiday Parties

Back to Debbie Downer gifts, I am quite offended that the description of this weighted heating pad suggests this would be a great gift for your grandma. I can't wait to get this thing and I will wear it all day long. It's on sale for 20% off. Perhaps this is the first clue that the sequined bow dress has passed me by. I could glue gun some sequins on this thing, right?

Lounge Wear for Lounging Season


This set is adorable and comes in just about every color you can think of. Winter is made for lounge wear. Go get it for anyone on your list. It's 27% off today.

To Go with Your Lounge Set

I can't see a darn thing and I love a real book but a Kindle is an old woman's friend. The paper white Kindle is on sale.

Good Hair Day Incoming . . .


I don't know many women who wouldn't be thrilled to get this L'Ange Blow Dryer Brush and it's 59% off today.

Great Favorite Things Party Gift

The Urban Decay Matte Nudes Eye Shadow Palette I shared a few weeks ago is 50% off today! For all your best girls.

Are These Still A Thing???


Beats are on sale for 50% off today. Are Beats still cool? I was too old for them when they were originally cool so we know I am now. Four colors available.

A Gift for Binging College Football, etc.


Now this is something that no one in my family would be able to use because we spend our weekends with early morning 5ks, outdoor hikes and serving the community, but if you know anyone who sits on the couch all weekend watching multiple college and professional football games, this couch beer/phone/coffee/snack/remote tray could be a great gift. Wear it with your shoulder heating pad and you're in for quite a day.

For the Kids Who Are In Charge of Feeding Themselves Now


This Ninja Air Fryer is Ironing Board adjacent for your young adults, but seems a little less depressing. Both of my older boys have this one and they love it and use it a ton.

For the Boys Who Wear Shorts Year Round

These shorts from Amazon are Drew's favorite. They come in a two pack and are a great length for the young uns.

For Your Former Athletes to Keep On Livin' the Dream

If you kid plays PS5 this NBA 2K25 game might be a winner and it's 57% off.

Skechers Slip Ons for the 80ish year old on your list . . .



Gotta dad that's getting older? My dad is 84 and has the mind of a 15 year old, but has trouble bending down to tie his shoes. He really likes these slip on skechers. 5 STARS from Charlie.

Don't Give this To Anyone But Yourself.

Y'all. this is random and likely a super offensive gift to give someone, so maybe this is a gift to give your ownself. My friend, Joey, has the most beautiful whitest teeth you've ever seen and she swears that all she does is Crest Whitestrips. These are 39% off today.

For your loving husband of 30 years . . .

I really have no idea. 

That's it for today! Happy Shopping and Hook Em Horns. We've got a big one on Saturday. I'm totally chill about it.
