This weekend is my first weekend at home since Memorial Day. That’s hands down what I’m most excited about this week. B’s work hours have been long and he finally has Saturday and Sunday off too. All the stars are aligning for a low-key weekend at home. We haven’t had the opportunity to really explore our new area yet, so we plan on hitting up the farmers market, trying out a new dinner spot and getting together with our friends. I lucked out and found the cutest bike that I can’t wait to ride around town. It even has the cutest basket and bell on it! Pinch me.

Watermelon is one of my favorite fruits and these recipes sounds delicious.

Today’s the day that the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale opens up to everyone! See my favorite picks in this post.
I scooped up two of these tops in white and olive (pictured below). They’re perfect tucked into jeans or paired with leggings and I love that they’re longer in the back! I also didn’t know I wanted flare denim until I tried on this insanely comfortable pair. They’re under $70 and a favorite sale purchase! Get them, you won’t regret it. Don’t forget the faux fur vest for under $100. The quality is great and the vest is so soft!
blouse (runs big, I’m in an xs) / denim (runs large, size down) / vest (I’m in the Topshop 2, US 0)
Notable sale picks:
+ I tried on these booties and love them! They ran a little small, so size up a half size.
+ As a scarf hoarder this plaid one is sure to be worn non-stop come fall
+ I picked this toner up and completely get the the hype. My face feels so refreshed after using them and they’re perfect for tossing in a suitcase when traveling.
I’m starting a new series on T&T tomorrow, so be sure and check back!

I didn’t even check out Prime Day and I’m glad I didn’t, sounds like it was a joke! Have a great weekend with your hubby!
enjoy your weekend at HOME! and that bike 🙂 🙂 !! amazon prime day was suuuuch a bust. xo
In LOVE with the baskets. I just ordered a bike last night. I want one of each basket and the pet carrier!
I picked up the Arcona toner for the first time, too and LOVE it! So much that I already ordered another set!
Love those booties!!! I love flared jeans and we have a few super cute pairs at work, but I’m way too short for them. :-/ We also carry that Lush brand and had that top, but we don’t now. You are right about it running big too. I wear an XS and I can’t fit into their tops. Makes me a little sad because they’re so cute. Anyway!! I hope that you have a wonderful and relaxing weekend!! 🙂
Off to go read those blog trends! Enjoy the farmers market and a nice weekend in!
Wow, you’ve been a travel maniac! Enjoy your time at home 😉
Fun picks, lady! I snapped up some Kendra and Kate baubles this morning, woohoo!
Such great trends! Love your picks and loving the blog trend article. Such interesting notes! Happy Weekend!

Those flares look amazing on you! I totally bought a faux fur vest as well. It feels so ridiculous when it is 95 out but I will be so happy when the Fall rolls around!
I picked up the same vest! It is going to be great to throw on for basically anything this winter and look put together!

Our office is so freaking cold I’m about to bust out my fur vest next week haha. Love the color of yours! Cheers to a weekend at home after so much busyness 🙂

So glad that you finally had a weekend at home! That’s how I’ll feel mid-August when Ryan and I finally have the same experience. 🙂 I can’t wait to check out all these links, especially the 2016 blog trend predictions, and glad that you found a few goodies from the Nordstrom sale!
Oh my! Good for you for finally being at home and getting to explore! I snagged that top from the Nordy sale too! Hope you enjoyed your weekend! xo
