I’m leaving my parents and flying home from Florida today and while I’m super sad for vacation to be over, I am super pumped to sleep in my own bed and be able to bathe in aloe vera and recover from my sunburn in peace.
I’m way behind on blog reading, but here are some Friday Favorites:
- We’re still about a month away from Father’s Day, but how cute are these “World’s Best Dad” cupcakes that Sam shared this week on Brit + Co?!
- Baublebar is running a great sale right now and I’m thinking now may be the time to go ahead and pull the trigger on this necklace and this bracelet set. What are you thinking about snagging?
- This outfit that Kayla put together is only $30.50 total and super cute — proving once again that you don’t have to spend a ton to look great!
- I’m constantly reading Buzzfeed articles but I really love this one about wearing Pinterest updos for an entire week {I wish I had the patience/time management skills} and this one about Blac Chyna getting in on the Kardashian’s money game. The second one definitely isn’t for everyone but I’m fascinated by how the Kardashians have marketed themselves and found it interesting to see how someone took their marketing and made it their own.
- This weekend you can beat the Memorial Day weekend crowds and still get some great deals from J. Crew Factory {50-60% off online}, Old Navy {40% off online and in stores} and Kate Spade {new markdowns + free shipping} just to name a few.
- I’ve confessed my love for my S’well bottle but after Shannon posted about her S’ip {the Target exclusive bottles created by S’well} I can’t wait to get my hands on this cute dachshund bottle as well as a couple of the summer prints.
Our house sat right on the water and I saw it as the perfect opportunity to get some great shots on our dock. Before I went to shoot I got super distracted by this huge bird feather; one of our palm trees was the perch for an osprey.
This striped romper is something I picked up specifically for vacation; I love the fit and that the straps can be made longer or shorter. I wore this on the day we went out on a small boat cruise to look for manatees. I was worried about my shoulders burning so I threw on my jean vest and made sure to throw on my sunglasses too. These oversized tortoise frames have pretty much been attached to my face all week; the shape is very flattering and the tortoise goes with so much — I packed a pretty wide variety of colors and found that these shades went with all my vacation outfits.
I brought my crossbody to lunch and then switched over to my straw beach bag when we went out on the water. This quilted leather bag is such a great size especially for vacation since it fits my sunglasses, wallet, keys, phone and a backup phone charger.
