Loop Looks

My new nail polish matched my skirt! | The sign Kelsey & Sierra made for me at the F^3 Lake Half Marathon last Saturday | My half-marathon finisher’s medal | Planning my outfits for February.  Yes, really.

Plans for this weekend involve a 10 mile run, a closet consultation, and celebrating my husband’s birthday by going to a shooting range.  And hopefully taking some outfit photos and writing some blog posts. Including a fun one for next Tuesday!

My version of Starry Night | Birthday Dinner Part 1 | Behind the scenes at Founders Winery | My new wine glass | Tasting at Lemon Creek Winery | Vintage wine

You might notice a theme in this week’s Saturday Shots.  I took all of these the week of my birthday.  I think I gained 2 pounds just from wine alone.  We drank wine and painted, we drank wine at dinner, we toured Michigan wineries, and I received the world’s largest wine glass as a gift.

Needless to say, I took it down a notch the past few days.  However, my book club with a wine problem is this afternoon.  But I think I’ll leave the giant wine glass at home…
