Welcome to my Five Faves with Cindy and Annie! This is always fun for me so thanks for joining us for Colorful Resort Wear Over 50, a face glow product that I’m getting compliments on, a delicious salad, and a beautiful great room renovation.
Hey, notice anything new around here? My blog just went to the spa and had a nice little refresh thanks to Shari at Little Blue Deer. We added a little color, clearer typefaces, and some organization. This is the feeling I get walking into my living room after I’ve added new pillows and flowers!
C.E.O. Face Glow
Last week, I showed an up-close photo of my face (unretouched, I might add) and some people wanted to know what I was using for that “glow.” It’s Sunday Riley C.E.O Glow Vitamin C + Turmeric Face Oil. My skin loves it. My sister uses it too…she loves the name of it 🙂
Annie’s Steak And Pasta Salad
For Father’s Day, I made for Howard
“Annie’s Steak and Pasta Salad.”
I chopped some tomatoes and tossed them with a little of the dressing and added them to the dish. We loved it and it was good the next day too.
Boden Embroidered Linen Dress
I showed this dress in an Outfit of the Week… I received mine in the mail and wore it out to lunch. It does wrinkle since it’s linen but I like that it has pockets AND it’s on sale now. Comes in petite, regular and tall.
Over 50 Resortwear Style
This weekend, I’m in Beverly Hills staying with my friend Laura and sister for my daughter’s bridal shower. I packed this skirt and flattering t-shirt for the pool.
Please click on the photo below for the link to the item above:
Oh and here are the bracelets and the bathing suit.
Great Room Renovation – Make Mine A Spritzer
This is a beautiful Before And After of Juliet’s Family Room.
So much better with the vaulted ceiling now.
You can see more (with the room styled with a little of my help) at Juliet’s blog, Make Mine A Spritzer.
Juliet and I had lunch together recently in Berkeley.
And that’s Colorful Resort Wear Over 50, Steak and Pasta Salad, CEO Glow and Make Mine A Spritzer. Follow me on Instagram for the latest!
Let’s check out.
Mary Ann, that dress is just too cute! And I just discovered Juliet a few minutes ago! I love the remodel of her living room and how nice that you both know each other! Also, can’t wait to try that salad…looks so delicious!
Great post today!
Thanks so much, Mary!
LOVE THE FACELIFT TO THE BLOG!
I THINK THATS THE THIRD “LIFT” SINCE I HAVE BEEN READING!
I NEED TO DO THAT TOO……………BUT FIRST SOME NEW PHOTOS!
PERHAPS THE PUPPY, CAT AND PIG WiLL DO!
SO EXCITED FOR YOUR DAUGHTER AND THE WeDDING!!
What a fun photo with you and your entourage of pets in some fabulous gown. Hoping we can have lunch soon!
CEO Glow! I agree with your sister, great name … and clearly outstanding results! Thanks for shouting our my great room … which turned about beautifully thanks to you! I love how you spot little details … like the window height. I would never have noticed (until it was too late) and it was an easy (and inexpensive) fix. Just wait until I share the final room reveal … and your talents are really showcased. I’m so in love with the pillows and Roman shades. Annie’s pasta look delish … I’m pinning and printing. It’ll be on the menu this week. Oh, and I noticed the blog renovation last post … it looks amazing. xo
Thanks, Juliet. Shari just enlarged the print so hopefully it will be easier for some readers. That pasta recipe is good!
Hi Mary Ann,
Great post. I love the refresh. The font isn’t too small on the post for me. It seems the comment is smaller than it used to be.
I’m sure your daughter’s shower was so much fun.
xo,
Karen
Thanks!
Is there a link to your adorable top/dress in the last picture?
Thanks Beth. It was from Anthropologie last year.
Another great post! Thank you
The font size is just fine on my screen.
Thanks!
Agree, make the font a bit larger
Thank you, Elin.
Hello. Do you have a link to the white/pink/orange bathing suit? Thank you. Mary Kay email: lyonappr@gmail.com
Just added it. Thanks Mary Kay.
Hi Mary Ann. I love the new refreshed look, but may I make a suggestion? The font is much too tiny and very hard to read. I always look forward to Sunday Five Faves from you, Cindy and Annie. Hope you will consider enlarging the font.
Lovely post. I would like to second the idea of enlarging the size of the font and font color. Very difficult to read even with reading glasses.
Thanks, Cher. It’s not small on my screen but I will try to fix this!
I agree!
Thanks, Lyn.
Thanks, Janelle! I will look into it.
Lovely post thank you. Just bought that skirt the other day and I love it! Happy celebrating your daughter’s wedding!
I’m wearing the skirt right now in the airport!
