Weekend Reading.

Hello from Charleston! It was a very quick trip – I head back this afternoon! I’m so glad I came though – my friend Stacy’s party was amazing, and coming to Charleston always leaves me feeling relaxed and happy. If you find yourself in Charleston in the coming weeks, definitely stop by Hampden… it’s my favorite store in the world and the new space is amazing. Also very cool: the dressing rooms + chairs in the shop feature my sister Becca’s fabrics + wallpaper! I’m definitely ready to get back home though – I can’t wait to get my apartment decorated. It’s really fun having a project. A few less links than usual this week (things have been a bit hectic with moving and the trip!) but the ones I have are really good! Happy weekend, friends! xo

I was excited to be featured on the Lake Pajamas blog this week. I love their stuff – they are quite possibly the softest PJs I own.

Did you see the new AERIN x Williams-Sonoma collection? I missed the press preview as I’m in Charleston but everything looks so, so good. So much dreamy blue and white!

So proud of my friend Jessie, who just launched a gorgeous line of ethically made dresses. There are so many ways to wear them, you can tell she really put a lot of thought into the design.

Crushing on these pretty suede espadrilles – the blush color is gorgeous.

Loved Carrie’s outfits from National Rainbow Day. She has the most amazingly colorful wardrobe!

I have been spending WAY too much time on PB teen for a 35 year old woman, but I can’t help it – how good is this palm leaf chandelier!? It’s on sale and I’m fairly certain that I need it.

Mackenzie’s off-the-shoulder top is so so cute – and really affordable! I love the pink and white but the blue and white one is equally fab.

This striped wrap dress is so chic – and only $90!

I’m loving Jess’s new wellness series.

Loved this guide from J.Crew: How to look amazing without even trying.

Blair looks so pretty in these photos from Savannah (and I really want to go there)!

I learned a lot from Fran’s simple (but smart) beauty secrets.

This BaubleBar necklace looks just like sea glass. It would be so perfect for a vacation.

97 Things you can do like a french girl.

This pink + white lace top is really unique + special.

Really related to Meghan’s thoughts on being self-conscious… I’ve dealt with so many of the things she describes.

My friend Alex put together an epic Charleston guide. So many places I haven’t tried yet!!

Remember that cool evil eye bag I posted to my Instagram story? So many of you replied with the designer’s name… it’s Min & Mon! I ordered the blue one… they have all different styles here. Such a cool bag!

Remember my favorite bow sneakers? They made an espadrille version! So cute.

Merritt looks stunning in these photos… also love her striped dress + basket bag!

This off-the-shoulder top is so pretty and it’s a really good price.

Why everyone is wrong about millennials.

A dreamy white lace midi dress at a great price.

A guide to natural beauty and skincare.

Beauty tips & tricks for when you don’t really care.

My own skin has been acting up, and this blue balm is saving it.

My friend spotted this really cool bed on Instagram – and I had to share it… isn’t it amazing!?

    I think I need to read that guide on looking amazing without trying now. I’m too lazy when it comes to prepping for a day or night out!

    The May Lindstrom Blue Cocoon is the best! I use it all the time when I feel a breakout coming on and I swear it magically calms the blemish.
