At the risk of upsetting the Endless Summer crowd, we have one month left until school starts and I, for one, am excited for the next chapter to start. It’s no secret it gets hot as Hades down here in South Carolina- nothing like a humid, 95 degree morning to start your day- so this is just about the time when I start dreaming of the “-er” months.

Happy Friday, friends!
What a week it’s been- I’ve been overwhelmed by the love and support you all have shown me with the launch of pre-orders for my book.
In case you missed it, we wrote a children’s book! Writing My Sister Lila Lee has been one of the greatest joys of my life and I can’t wait to share it with the world this fall- if you’re local to Charleston, be on the lookout for our mini press tour!

Ok, friends. Here it is. The room I so desperately wanted to wallpaper against Phil’s wishes.
In the end, I gave in; and we opted for a glossy light yellow over the floral prints I was so drawn to. And I have to say, I think he was right.
It’s officially fall and it’s almost starting to feel like it down here in Charleston. The mornings are crisp, with a slight bite in the air, but the temperatures still inch their way up by the end of the day. Alas, I embrace those bundled up moments in the early hours, and I’ve started to bring out a bit of fall decor here and there.

If you’ve followed along for a while you know we are a Sunday football kind of family, and that most of the festivities revolve around the foods. Typically, you can find us competing with charcuterie boards or getting down with some famous turkey chili .

I’ve been spending the last few weeks scouring the internets in search of a few pieces for a much anticipated Nantucket wedding at the end of the summer. All the research has wedding guest dresses on my brain, and I thought ya’ll might be in need of some inspo, too.

I am so excited to finally share our Mother’s Day Giveaway- a curated prize made up of goodies from all my favorite local shops.
Happy Friday!
I am by no means a DIY’er, but I’ve been admiring the Liberty of London inspired handles on so many bags for spring that I thought I might try a little crafting this morning. I found this fabric on Etsy for under $10 per 1/4 yard and used only half of it to wrap the handles of one of my very favorite straw bags. The finished project came out SO cute, and gave it the perfect hint of floral for under $5.

By popular demand, here are the contents of my recent spring Zara haul. We all know I need another maxi dress like I need a hole in the head, but these were just too dang good to pass up. Plus, I’m gearing up for the impending South Carolina summer heat, so I’m justifying these purchases as survival gear.
