My First Five on Friday

I bet you can't say the post title 3 times fast!  Well, I'm happy that we've finally made it to Friday, even though I have a jam packed weekend.  Since I really like lists, I'm excited to do my first Five on Friday!
1.
I kind of got in the spirit of dressy & casual looks with yesterday's post.  So my dressy & casual feeling is going to translate into my favorite celebrity looks of the week.  There were so many really pretty looks this week & celebs really brought there A-game!  Here are my favorites:
Pictures from people.com

-Jessica Alba in Reem Acra at Baby2Baby Gala in Culver City, CA.
I am obsessed with this gown, it is so gorgeous from its silhouette to its color. Jessica is just perfection in it.
-Elizabeth Banks in Elie Saab at the premiere of "The Hunger Games: Catching Fire" in Berlin.
This gown is liquid silver.  Its beautiful craftsmanship & Elizabeth's styling make for a total knockout of a look.

-Camila McCounaughey at the GQ Man of the Year Party in Los Angeles.
The nude hue of this dress is so chic & goes so well with Camila's skin tone.  The wrap style is a classic, but the bold shoulders make it unique.
-Ashlee Simpson at BandFuse: Rock Legends video game launch in West Hollywood.
Ashley is getting in on the leather trend with this maroon frock.  The dress's shape & Ashlee's simplistic styling make for an enviable outfit.

2.
On Tuesday I mentioned that coconut oil was one of my "Must Haves of the Moment".
Well I found another reason to love it even more: you can use coconut oil as a face wash.  Since the temperatures dropped my skin started to get really dry & I was looking for a more gentle way to wash my face with something I already had.  I stumbled across a blog with a post on how to wash your face with coconut oil & had to try it.  I've done it two nights in a row & so far it's all good, but I am going to do a post about it in the next few weeks to share how to do it & what my results are!

3.
This weekend is initiation for our pledges & I am so excited for them!  This is such an amazing experience & I cannot wait to watch them see what goes on.  I have such great memories from my initiation.  Here is a picture from it:
I have made so many amazing friends through this experience & I hope that our newest members love Alpha Gam as much as I do.  I'm pumped for this whole weekend & cannot wait for them to be full members!

Since I have initiation on the mind & we have to wear nude shoes I thought I would share some pretty options I found that would be perfect to wear this weekend.
Night Out
Pump / Ankle Strap
Shopping Day
Patent Leather / Leather
Brunch
Pump / Ankle Strap

I've got you covered for any occasion this weekend!  Bonus: nude shoes go with just about everything!

5.
Last I bring you some music to start your weekend off right.  I'm not Miley's biggest fan, but I cannot get this song out of my head!

  5. I've never used coconut oil before but have heard great things about it! I've used olive oil before to remove my makeup if I don't have anything else! Love the gold toe on that nude pump!
