Happy Saturday! We’ve got rain on tap for most of today, so I think it’s going to be pretty low-key around here. I’m meeting up with some girls for an early dinner Downtown Raleigh later, which I’m so looking forward to! I’m making it my mission to try more places, like restaurants and coffee shops over the next few months so that I can find my go-to spots!
I think I need to add this to my list of, “recipes to try”. Looks so good!
If you’re looking for a full-coverage foundation that doesn’t feel super heavy on your skin, I recommend this one. I wore it for the first time earlier this week and was very impressed with it!
I’ve been putting some finishing touches, like curtains, on some of the main rooms in our home this week. With changing out light fixtures, adding some new decorative elements, and a few larger furniture pieces, it’s feeling like this house is finally ours. A lot of things have been in progress or almost done basically since we moved in, so I’m happy to be putting final pieces in place to! It feels more and more like home, which is exactly how it should feel.
Items Mentioned This Week
Old Navy – Smocked Dress: Wore this for dinner with my mom and sister this week! It’s super flattering and will also be a great transitional piece from Summer to Fall.
Nordstrom – Miller Waterproof Boots: These are part of the Nordstrom sale that ends Sunday! I got the black which seems to be out of stock now but they come in brown too!
Nespresso Machine: Currently on major sale! I use ours every morning and love switching out the pod flavors with the seasons.
Target – Cami: A great, classic tank for day time or night!
Home Depot – Blackout Shades: Minimalistic shade to help block sun.
Lululemon – Everywhere Belt Bag: I’ve gotten way more use out of this than I ever expected! It’s great for running errands – especially when I have Liam with me and don’t want a purse to keep up with.
Nordstrom – Strapless Convertible Bra: Currently on sale through Sunday! I like that this has straps that are removable in case you want to use it with a racerback shirt.
