[WEEKEND OFF DUTY]

Weekend happenings//

Feb19

+ ‘Tis the season: Girl Scout cookies are here! And, boy, do we have plenty.

+ A rare day working on the weekend: wrapping up a season today and jumping into the next one tomorrow.

Other notes//

+ A great piece on ESPN about Michael Jordan as he celebrates his 50th birthday.

+ Another article: If you didn’t catch Suzy Menkes buzzed about (and well done) piece on the “circus of fashion,” bloggers, street style, etc, here it is.

+ After nearly four years battling cancer, the 8 year-old daughter of my church‘s founding pastor passed away this weekend. Daisy’s battles and ongoing strength was a  such a huge source of inspiration, and I’m sure her story will continue to be spread love and hope for others. Her blog link has had a home on this site since its inception; I’ll be keeping it up for the remainder of the week for those who are curious. Read more here.

+ Another weekend full of family time: game night and more time with the little ones.

+ Iced over roofs, icy cars, & frozen lawns: lots of cold nights and mornings lately.

+ So I tried to avoid this guy as long as possible, but I finally caved. So pleased to have this Free People jacket in my wardrobe.

Feb4

The weekend was full of family events: celebrating the life of a wonderful grandfather, catching up with out-of-town relatives, playing with the kiddie cousins, and a birthday celebration thrown in.

How’d everyone’s Super Bowl go? The game definitely wasn’t a let down, which is easy when you don’t prefer either team. For the extra stuff, I found the commercials as a whole just good, not great, and the halftime merely okay. Perhaps my expectations were too high…?

Other notes//

+ Finally saw Django Unchained over the weekend. Two things I love about it: 1. it was partly filmed in my hometown of West Hills, & 2. the soundtrack is absolutely killer.

+ Excited for these two upcoming movies: Mood Indigo & Inside Llewyn Davis.

Weekend happenings//GrandmaGrandpa+ Over the weekend I had to say goodbye to one of my, if not main, inspirations: my grandfather. This week will be spent celebrating the life of the greatest example of what it means to live by faith. My grandpa was a man of unparalleled character, tireless work ethic, and was persistent to do the right thing no matter how unpopular. Being named Perfecto is a lot of pressure, but Grandpa certainly exceeded it.

+ Join Vine yet? Get the app and follow me at @stephaniesuarez. Still looking for inspiration for my first video-so much pressure!

+ Catch SNL this week? Two clips I enjoyed: 1. Kenan as Ray Lewis.  2. YOLO.

+ Winter X flew by this weekend (I’m still catching up a little) , but how about my guy Shaun White?!

+ Nothing to report here since it was a tight weekend shared with my family, but how indecisive is this weather? First we had this, now it’s rolling through the 70s.

+ How sweet are these Sandlot tees from The Forest Lab?

Other notes//

+ Raf Simons for adidas is headed our way. Doesn’t seem like we’ll be running short on collabs for a while.

+ So, we’re in for a Harbaugh Bro Super Bowl, Hockey’s back, and the Lakers are still ripping my heart. Sounds about right.

+ THIS IS HAPPENING.

NFLPOSTGAME

+ NFL players just don’t have the post-game outfits locked down like the NBA. Kaepernick wearing a beanie, oxford shirt, and hooded blazer. Lewis lookin’ like a reverend. [from yesterday.] Pulling for the Patriots in the Super Bowl since the Rams won’t be there for a while. Sad.

Other notes//

+ Everyone have a good week while I’m busy repeating “Suit and Tie” and trying to digest it.

+ After-work dinner at Mas Malo catching up with a friend.    + The cutest little lip balm ever.

+ Storing away all my CDs. Goodbye, *Nsync!                             + A fun find.

+ Anyone watch Downton Abbey? I’m so happy it’s back, and I don’t think I could love the Dowager more. This was my favorite shot.

+ I have a pretty healthy To-Do list going on, but I’m excited about it and trying to keep that spirit up. “Do it today” is my key phrase right now.

Jan1

+ Yet another trip to the Sprinkles Cupcakes ATM with friends [see Alissa & Caroline deciding above]. The city was packed with people in town for the Rose Bowl, so driving through popular areas was a nightmare.

+ Rang in the New Year with a bad cold.                      + Breakfast fail from a new pancake set I got.

Other notes//

+ After church, we had yet another Sunday brunch. This time back again at Taste.

+ If you like new typefaces, then you should download my brother’s new one: VINCENT.

+ Christmas at work: Santa (aka our President) made a guest appearance and White Elephant with my dept.

+ That time of the year again: Christmas tamale making with my family.

+ I’m still on a piñata-making kick: a couple of gold initials to mark gifts in lieu of gift tags.  + In-N-Out taking part in the Christmas season.

+ About half of the Christmas Eve desserts represented.   + Christmas viewing of one of my favorites: Meet Me In St. Louis

Other notes//

+ From one holiday to the next-I hope everyone has a great Christmas and a safe New Years Celebration in the coming days.
