Weekend Update

January 20, 2017

Happy weekend! Got your coffee ready? Good, let’s go!

mac-white-sheets-coffee

Today is a little bittersweet – YAS to it being Friday, but it’s Inauguration Day, and if you follow me on Twitter, you know how I feel about that. I’m not going to get all political here, so let’s get to gettin’ as they say.

Shopping: Have you seen Old Navy‘s spring collection yet? It’s SO GOOD. This floral sweatshirt, this lace up striped dress, and this ruffled swimsuit are in my cart. I bought a chambray dress similar to this last year, but this one comes in two different chambray colors. I’m also deep into resort wear with an upcoming trip to Florida, so I have this and this in my cart.

Reading: 

[Books] I just finished Truly Madly Guilty by Liane Moriarty (just okay) and a good Emily Giffin read called First Comes Love (recommend!) and now I’m moving on to a couple of classics – just have to decide which to start!

[Blogs]

  • I’ve had my eye on the Valentino Rockstuds for a while but have yet to purchase them – but these Sole Society dupes that Caitlin styled are cute!
  • All of these doormats Mackenzie rounded up are so darling! (see what I did there…) I would love to get a monogrammed doormat like this one, but honestly, the one we had until recently got so ruined from the winter weather that I don’t know if it’s worth it! If you live in an apartment, any of these would be so cute to put outside of your door!
  • I told you that one of my new year resolutions was to focus, so I definitely bookmarked this list of 5 solutions to every procrastination problem. I have a bad habit of starting an email only to open up 3 or 4 or 7 other tabs and forget why I was writing the email in the first place. So… FOCUS.
  • I’m slightly jealous and slightly incredulous about how Helene was able to start her own courses and move to Germany so she and her husband can more easily travel the world. #girlboss right there!

Writing: Favorite posts around here this week included the ever-favorite packing list for 2 weeks in Thailand, how to clean your flat iron (which I really need to do…), and this post on casual comfort with Hush Puppies.

Dog Stuff: If you have a dog, you need to check out this toy and this toy (Sprout’s favorites!)

That’s a wrap. Enjoy your weekend!
