Happy (long!) weekend. This week was all about Mahjong (I took two classes and have my third next week) with a side of hurricane. I definitely wear my newness to Charleston on my sleeve. My friends who have lived here longer are all breezy while I tend to stress and overprepare. All the same, I figure the one time I don’t prepare like a maniac will be the time we get hit really hard, so there we are. Anyway! It is the long weekend and I have a few things planned. A pool day with girlfriends today and maybe seeing my dad play music tomorrow. Whatever you are up to, I hope it is wonderful. Enjoy this week’s links and I’ll be back with new blog content on Tuesday.

So many great links. Thanks for sharing sweetie!
I bought that same (or similar green, I can’t tell if the shade is the exact same from the photos) Staud bag last year when you linked to it from the special Moda Operandi collab. I have used it so much! I always LOVE a convertible crossbody/clutch/handbag and the quality is great. Thank you!
Oh GOOD! It’s a great bag.
LOVE the Cat Astrology … book? clutch? Can you please share the link? I can’t seem to find it.
Oh thank you, it is a clutch from Olympia Le-Tan – I collect her bags. 🙂
