The Sunday Scoop
I’m wearing this Doen dress.
Happy Mother’s Day!
We are wrapping up a weekend in Sea Island, Georgia. We rented a cottage with three other couples and have had the best time catching up, enjoying the sunshine, walking the beach and eating yummy food. It is my first time here and I see why everyone raves about this special place. The husband played golf, the girls went to the spa and we all just squeezed every inch of our three days together. A perfect Mother’s Day recharge but I can’t wait to get back to my boys!
This trip is always special because it’s with our friends who we met as adults when we lived in Chicago. No childhood connection, just true friends who found each other. When we moved away I really mourned not raising my kids with these friends but I’m so grateful that time can pass and friendship stays. We chatted around a table about how important it is to tell people how much they mean to you. To compliment them and voice the positive things you tell yourself in your head. We need more of that! I’m always reminded of this when we are together, just how much I value them and how it good it feels to tell them that.
This week I shared the updates we made to Charlie’s room! I love his happy room so much. You can get all the details here.
I wrote a post on my blog about the value of adult friendships which is fitting after two weekends spent with newer friends in my life. I get so many questions about making friends, maintaining friendships and leaning in to what you need as an adult.
FYI - this stripe vase is by Noon and Moon, a new brand that I love! They gave me a discount code for you - LIZ12 for 12% off! I also really love these drinking glasses.
This week’s what to wear was inspired by our weekend in Sea Island! You can always find these styled outfits on my LTK page. There are a ton of past styled outfits right here.
5 things I loved this week:
The Nat Note x Mi Golondrina collaboration! I especially love this jumpsuit.
I started watching The Four Seasons on Netflix and it is so cute! I love all of the characters so much. I found myself giggling along with the chaos and feeling all their feels along the way.
I recently discovered At Present, a great online shop to discover jewelry. I’m especially loving these earrings and this heart ring.
How cute are these little woven bags from Marni Junior? They are technically for little girls but I think they are the perfect colorful summer bag. Especially eyeing this one!
You know how much I’ve raved about Roz’s Milk Cream (so great for air dried hair!!) but now I have tried the Styling Oil and oh my gosh I love it, too! It is so light and doesn’t leave your hair feeling greased down. It’s so good! The perfect soft texture.
PS: Remember that if you’re enjoying my posts giving them a heart helps share my account with others! Thank you for being here! xoxo
