Friday Faves: Volume XXII

Hi hi hi! Holiday weekend Friday! I hope everyone had a safe Fourth of July and was able to spend it exactly how they wanted to!
Holidays always bring sales, and that’s what I’ve seen this week! My favorite glassware brand is having a sale, Target Circle sale is next week, we’re two weeks from Prime Day. SO. Much. Shopping.

I’m also in trip planning mode. I have two summer trips planned in August; New York and Miami. I’ve been to both countless times, but they’re both ever-changing!
Any recent recs for either city!?

Here’s what I am loving this week!
Smoothing Balm: Last week, I told you about a hair oil I ordered and guess what . . . it was the one thing left out of my order?! I picked up this smoothing balm at Ulta after remembering that the head spa I went to used it. I’m really liking it so far and love the nostalgia of the scent.
Overnight Hydrating Mask: Sense a theme? I need to schedule a haircut badly and I feel like the summer really does a number on hair health. This overnight mask is so great.
-I just ordered the CUTEST juice glasses, they got delivered yesterday. They pair perfectly with my new plates from a few weeks ago!
-Anthro came out with another print in my favorite maxi, it’s getting worn this weekend!

In My Cart:
Another striped dress. Yes, I know. But hear me out; it’s basically a year-round dress in Charleston.
-This printed midi dress is a steal at Anthro. All of their sale is 50% off!!
-This set of candles is just so unique. Not sure if they go with my home, but I am so drawn to them.
-This serving stand is stunning. STUNNING.
-I LOVE collecting Estelle glassware. This ocean color is calling me.

What I’m Reading/Listening to:
My Magnolia Summer: I grew up reading Dorothea Benton Frank’s novels and this one is written by her daughter, also set in Charleston. It also just came out in paperback!
The Main Character: This is our pure barre summer book club book for August and I am so excited about it! Looks like part of it takes place in my most favorite place on earth!
Youthjuice: This book is getting started this afternoon and I cannot wait. I had plans to start it earlier in the week, but work got into my reading time ugh.
A Talent for Murder: This is a fun read, I love the character carryover from past books by this author!

Enjoy the holiday weekend!
