Favorite Things Friday

I had a super busy first of the week, but things slowed way down the second half, which is how I prefer it. We are headed to a family wedding this weekend in Chatham, MA. Chatham beaches are known for Great White shark infested waters...one literally washed up on shore this past week. Locals kept the 7ft teenage great white alive and got it safely back into the water.  yay! A life goal of mine is to see a Great White fin (safely from the shore), so I'll be packing my binoculars this weekend. Have a great weekend, y'all!

I have been finding it nearly impossibly to find fun, bright dresses with thin straps lately. Which is why I was soooo surprised and thrilled to find this Kate Spade Saturday at TJ Maxx for only $25!?! It's probably because the line has been discontinued, but either way I'm looking forward to wearing it this weekend! I tried to find something similar online to share with y'all but again, had no luck. Have any of you been able to find pretty, thin-strap dresses?

Boxed water came of out no where and now it seems to be everywhere!? The first time I had ever seen it was in the @chalkfulloflove picture I shared on Instagram on Wednesday. Then it was at Sunbird Kitchen. and now I feel like it is the bottled water to be drinking. The company sets themselves apart with 76% of their water boxes composed of a renewable resource, trees. Their trees are from well managed forests, constantly growing new trees to replaced the harvested ones. I'm not necessarily a "tree hugger" but I'll be buying this water when I see it from now on.

The perk of being the first grand-daughter...grandmothers send you very special and sweet gifts. I love these Janie and Jack sandals on Roswelle, as does she! Thanks, Mia! It looks like this specific pair is no longer available but Roswelle was also gifted these blue sandals which are equally adorable. My only questions is: "Can I have a pair in my size?"

I would love so much to paint a bold pink and white striped wall in Roswelle's room, similar to this one.  But in effort to keep the room neutral for now, I will be added hints of pink and white stripes, including this extra large turkish towel.
