Happy Friday! Who’s excited for the weekend? I don’t have a lot of plans and I’m pretty excited about that. My Aunt is visiting next week and then I’m going on the Stonyfield trip so I want time to get myself and our apartment in order before life gets hectic. Here’s what I’m loving this week:
1. How perfect are these heels? I love them. If I had an unlimited budget, I’d have in black and nude and wear them all the time.
2. This video is one of the funniest videos I’ve seen in a very long time. Talk about a party game.
3. This past week Josh and I met up with friends and headed to 360 Steakhouse for a Yelp Elite event. The views are unreal. You overlook all of Omaha and the river and it is just so beautiful. We enjoyed incredible food (and the above photo was taken when I was mid-bite in my first ever crab cake.) Everyone got three drink tickets at the event and we must have looked like the fun table because as people were leaving they dropped their drink tickets off to us. Don’t mind if we do. 😉 It was a great night and Josh and I can’t wait to go back for a special occasion.
4. It’s August, which means it’s time for an updated Shop My Closet page. Check it out to see what I’m loving, wearing, and using this month. I also updated my media kit for the first time in almost a year. I have this for advertisers who are interested in working with me and Her Heartland Soul. 🙂
5. This song is my jam. I get so excited when it comes on the radio in the car and turn it up. I’m loving Selena’s new sound!
Questions of the Day: What are you loving this week? Do you use Yelp? What song do you turn up when it comes on the radio? Would you play the balloon game?

P.S. See you tomorrow with a new Saturday Shares!
Liz Joiner says
Oh love this Selena song! Next work out song! I haven’t listened to her too much. I listen to Taylor Swift more often. those dessert drinks look unreal. I love this kate spade watch.

Isn’t the song great? I feel like it would be perfect for barre!
Heidi Kokborg says
Those desserts look amazing! I want one 🙂 & those shoes! Someday when I get insanely rich I’ll buy them. So probably not in this lifetime 😀
Erin says
I had way too many of those desserts! haha They were so good!
Erica {[email protected]} says

Thanks Erica! I love it too! 😀

Need those shoes – and what a beautiful dessert display!

Isn’t it gorgeous? And the desserts tasted as good as they looked!
Lindsay says
I have totally played that balloon popping game before, it’s so much fun!!! Right now my jam is Can’t Feel My Face by The Weekend…I just love it!! I also use Yelp on the reg-it’s such an awesome app!
Erin says
Omg I want to play the balloon game!! haha It looks hysterical!
Breanna says
I love posts like this – I love the randomness! 🙂 I love that song, too! And the balloon pop game has been floating around my Facebook feed, and makes me laugh EVERY time! So funny!
Erin says
Omg it looks hysterical! I want to play! haha
Mattie says
That Yelp event sounds like so much fun! And also delicious. 🙂 I haven’t heard that Selena song, I need to check it out!
Erin says
The Selena song is so great! I hope you love it!
Cynthia @craftoflaughter says
Those desserts look amazing! Not sure how I would pick just one
Erin says
I didn’t pick just one! I tried bites of them all! haha
Erin O'Brien says
Those nude heels are TO DIE FOR. If I wasn’t so practical (or boring?) in my footwear, I’d wear those all the time. Plus, nude’s just my jam.
And the Yelp event this week was unreal! I can’t stop thinking about the crab cakes; best I’ve ever eaten. Very memorable event.
Erin says
It was my first crab cake ever! It was really tasty, I just wish I liked fish more!
Maggie says
That event photo was chic and the view was beautiful! The heels…I have to admit I was drooling a little bit. They’re to die for!
Erin says
Aren’t they gorgeous? I want them to go on sale!!
Julia @ Lord Still Loves Me says
Thanks for that Selena song! I just listened to it and love it. Have a wonderful weekend! 🙂
Erin says
Isn’t it awesome? I love when it comes on the radio!!
Kelsey says

Samantha says
I use yelp almost exclusively for restaurants. If it says it’s good on yelp, it’s almost never wrong. Also, Meghan Trainer is currently my jam. Loved this post, Erin!

Erin says
Yes! Yelp is my go-to for when I’m on vacation or wanting to try a new restaurant. It’s great!
Robin Rue (@massholemommy) says
Those shoes are super cute. I love that the heel is not super high.
Erin says
Yes! I want them so badly! Now if only they could go on sale!
Kati Rose says
At first I wasn’t sure if I liked the Selena song, but the more I’ve heard it the more I just love it. I’m like you now where I turn it up on blast if I hear it while in my car. I hope she keeps producing jams like this.
Erin says
Me too! I really like this voice she’s developing!
Kate says
I love me some Selena- she seems like such a cool girl! I love the heels, but I think actually wearing them would be a nightmare for me. I might wear them to dinner when I am sitting the whole time 😀
Erin says
Oprah calls those sitting shoes! haha If a heel is taller than 3 inches I usually skip it. It’s not worth attempting to walk in them and risking twisting an ankle! haha
Morgan @ Morgan Manages Mommyhood says
That game is TOO MUCH. I LOVE those shoes as well!! Just need somewhere to actually need them ahahah!
Erin says
Doesn’t the game look hysterical? I want to play!!
Anali Martinez says
I love that Selena song!!! Thanks for sharing!
Erin says
Glad you like Anali! It’s a great song!
Heather says
I like that max studio dress and that shade of lipstick. That dress looks so comfortable, I’d love to get back into wearing dresses again.
Erin says
Dresses are great! I’d live in them if I could!
Darcy says
Those shoes are beautiful!! LOVE them!

I do not use yelp and we are going to a wedding this weekend. My kids are so excited
Erin says
Ohh I hope you have a blast at the wedding!!
Adriana says
I am OBSESSED with those heels! I’ve been looking for a dressy pair of heels this color for an upcoming wedding and looks like I found them! Thank you for sharing – this is an awesome posts! I love weekly/monthly favorites and round up posts to help me find new things – whether it be recipes, products, etc!

Megan @ Wit & Wander says
Oh my goodness!!! That balloon pop game is HILARIOUS!!!!! My friends would die if I ever asked them to do that at a party!
Erin says
Doesn’t it look hysterical?! I want to play!! haha
Katie Elizabeth says
I’m so glad I’m not the only adult obsessed with Selena – her songs are just so catchy! And great idea on a ‘shop my closet’ page, I may have to steal that 🙂 Happy Friday!
Erin says
Thanks Katie! Steal away! I was pretty excited when I updated my blog because it gave me so many more options for things I could do!
Miranda @ Miranda Writes Blog says
Oh my gosh that balloon game! I would not be able to do it. I would be rolling on the ground laughing. I find myself using Yelp most often for non-restaurant businesses and only when I need to read a quick review or see photos of a place. I don’t think I’ve ever posted a review. Oddly enough, I rarely listen to music in the car anymore. I used to love blasting the radio but now I kind of like having that extra quiet time, or I listen to podcasts.
Erin says
I love podcasts too! I need to get into the habit of listening to them in the car! And I want to play the balloon game so badly but like you I’m not sure I could actually do it! haha
Angela says
I’ve been on an 80’s music kick lately. And not cool 80’s music, but really cheesy music like Nothing’s Gonna Stop Us Now.
Erin says
You do you girl! My husband loves 80s music!
Sandy a la Mode says
umm those shoes are amazing!!!

Erin says
Me too! Now I just need them to go on sale!!

That balloon pop game is ridiculously silly! I don’t think I could stop laughing if I were playing!
Erin says
Me either! But I’d want to try! haha
eliz frank says
I’ll take the shoes simply because they are beautiful… Of course, I might not be able to wear them but that’s okay too. I can tell your weekend was sunny and full… 🙂
Erin says
