Happy Friday, Friends! For this Friday’s Favorites I’ve gathered together some of my favorite finds from this week. A mix of fashion and home decor, here are some of my most favored items to inspire your shopping!

This cream embroidered blouse and this royal shirt dress are at the top of my list, especially because they’re not only beautiful, but they’re also versatile items to help you transition your wardrobe from dressing for those sunny summer days to the upcoming chilly fall nights.

This short sleeve blue seersucker shirt is another favorite of mine, and dressing up or down in any season is doable when you add this pippa cardigan to your fit. And, of course, ring in the last stretch of summer by dressing in a pair of cute sandals, whether they’re white leather or mustard gingham.

This large Bali Bag has been a longtime favorite of mine. These bags are handwoven and created from ata grass making each one unique, and they come adorned with a cute tassel giving you the option to choose from over fifteen different tassel colors.

If you’re needing a place in your home to hang your bags, I’m really loving a rattan wall hook that will add a natural, bohemian look to whatever space it’s placed. Add more textures to your home decor with this gorgeous rattan wrapped table lamp or this handwoven, rattan coffee table. This rattan lania mirror is destined to bring a coastal vibe to your bathroom, bedroom, or living room. And this wicker framed counter stool will help elevate your kitchen counter.

You can also play with patterns in your bedroom by switching your current headboard with this cushy indigo floral novak headboard as well as changing up your bedding and shams to a fun block print. This blue striped pouf is another favorite of mine that can be used as an ottoman or top it with a tray and use it as a side table.

Last but most certainly not least on this week’s list of favorites is this marana ceramic table lamp which has an antique milk jug-inspired base and decorative handles, the perfect piece to add a bit of eclectic charm to any space.

I’m always on the lookout for good home and fashion finds, and I love sharing them with you! If you want to see more of my lists of favorites, check out my most recent Amazon Finds and What I’m Loving Lately.

Happy Friday, Friends! One of my favorite things to shop for is a good Amazon find. Amazon has so many good deals and great items, and if you’re needing to purchase something and have it shipped to you immediately, Prime shipping comes in to save the day! So today, I’ll be sharing with you my favorite Amazon finds!

To start with, I’ve found a couple of super cute dresses on Amazon! This ditzy flower midi dress is so pretty, not to mention it’s a really breathable and comfortable option that comes in a few different colors, like green, blue, yellow, black, red, and purple. I also love this blue plaid puff sleeve boho midi dress that you can wear off-shoulder. It would be perfect for a picnic or a dinner date. And, both of these dresses would pair well with woven sandals and a straw clutch to get you ready and on with your day.

If you’re looking for a good set of pajamas on Amazon, these blue striped pajamas are a great option and they’re unisex, so you and your significant other can each grab a pair to match! They also come in heather grey, light pink, and navy to give you different colored options to choose from.

Grab a pair of jammies for your kids, too! This set of star-patterned pajamas is a super cute option and you can get them in blue or purple. I also love these sage green children’s pajamas and they would make a great breathable choice for those really warm summer nights. Another favorite find of mine from the children’s clothing is this adorable floral knit dress. And these water-friendly, rubber Native shoes are a great comfy summer option for kids to wear around the pool, the beach, or even on a rainy day.

Amazon is one of my favorite places to shop for home accessories, especially pillow covers. A couple of my favorite pillow cover finds on Amazon include this Laura Ashley Milo Euro Sham, this Lisa Fine floral patterned cover, and this Flowershave357 cover in blue and white. This heavy-duty storage trunk made from water hyacinth is another favorite find of mine to use for storing blankets, toys, and really any items in your home that you need help hiding. I’m also loving this blue wall sconce lamp which would be a great addition to use as a bedside lamp or a bathroom vanity light.

Lastly, snag this set of 4 blue-striped beach towels and this set of 7 travel packing cubes to help you prepare for your beach vacation. The towels are really thick and will definitely help to keep you and your family dry when taking breaks from the water, and the travel set has everything you need to keep you organized, including bags for your shoes, toiletries, and makeup.

From children’s clothes to home accessories to shoes as well as items to get you vacation ready, it’s almost impossible not to find what you’re needing on Amazon. And, if you want some extra shopping inspiration, check out these Five Summer Clothing Essentials to Find on Amazon Fashion.

Happy Friday, Friends! I love getting together a list of all my favorite items to share with you, and this week I’ve stumbled on some good finds! Here is a mix of all the things that I’m loving lately.

To start off the list, I’m loving all of the sleeveless summer dresses in beautiful floral patterns! My favorite nara dragonfly garden dress is one is sadly sold out but I also love this striped version. I’m also loving the ruffles on this blue and white floral dress. And, although it’s not sleeveless, this blue and white midi dress looks so classic and cozy and has a beautiful ancient garden design that will make it look like you’re wearing a pretty painting.

All of the floral patterns have been on my list of favorites lately, especially this blue and grey floral mix shirt, and this floral V-neck one-piece swimsuit is a great option if you’re needing a new suit for the pool or the beach. And, whether you’re wearing your favorite summer dress or a nice blouse and a pair of shorts, you can’t go wrong with these amber gingham bow clogs.

Thinking of taking some time to update your office space? I love a good rattan desk to add a traditional and earthy tone to an office. This pretty woven rattan desk or this reeded rattan desk would be great options.

You can also include more rattan in your home décor to add a bit of natural texture to your space. I’m really loving this rattan Macon chair which is such a sculpturally fun piece to play with in your office or living room. And this rattan end table is another good piece that’ll mix well with any style and bring with it a bohemian coastal vibe.

Update your kitchen table with this sleek white dining table. And for some fun feminine lighting grab this scallop trimmed hanging lantern. This piece is so gorgeous and is certain to elevate the space it lives in. I’m also loving this chic and simple ripple shower curtain with its two-toned design, and the wavy, blue border would give a modern edge to your bathroom.

Last on my list is the luna lumbar pillow in white and indigo. This accent pillow is the perfect complement to your outdoor furniture, and it is super durable, mold-resistant, and easy-to-clean.

Happy Friday, Friends!

The pandemic has changed many things for us these days. Unfortunately, it seems that one of the things it’s changed is the ability to get furniture and items for your home in a timely manner. You end up playing The Waiting Game while your purchases take months to finally make their way to you, and that can be an issue when you’re ready to get your home updated and in order. For those of you wanting to find furniture that you can get as soon as possible, I’ve gathered a list of quick ship items from Serena and Lily to share with you. And the best part? All of these will ship within 1-4 weeks!

Living Room

I love quick ship cushion options when it comes to couches and chairs. This Mattituck Armchair, Costa Pinstripe Sofa, and Pacifica Loveseat in driftwood all ship out within 2-4 weeks. Not to mention, the blue pinstripe sofa would be a fun, coastal-like addition to your sunroom and the driftwood loveseat would look perfect on your patio.

This Market Side Table has a fun, white top that comes off so you can store items inside! Or snag this Blake Side Table in natural, fog, or indigo, and add the matching Blake Raffia-wrapped Console along with it which can fit two stools underneath.

I love the beautiful mix of materials on this Cabot Square Coffee Table which would look good with any living room design, or this Driftway Coffee Table in coastal blue would add a calm, cool vibe to your room. This Driftway Console Table in chalk or a Beach House Entry Table would add extra table space for showcasing some of your favorite items. I’m also loving this Bar Island Partners Desk which is such a great find because there’s enough room for two people to work side-by-side.

And, of course, my FAVORITE super versatile South Seas Bar Cart can be on its way to you in 2-4 weeks as well!

Dining Room

The legs on this Reese Dining Table are so beautiful and get me every time, and it’s an absolutely gorgeous table to see in person. It would be a beautiful addition to any dining space. But if rectangular dining isn’t quite your style or doesn’t fit your space, the Downing Dining Table and the Beach House Breakfast Table are pretty, round tables that would also make good dining options.

The Tucker Counter Stool in midnight and the Tucker Dining Chair in fog or midnight are great quick ship options for your beach house and they’re easy to wipe down and clean.

Bedroom

Need a new bed frame for your bedroom? With its gorgeous wicker frame, this Del Rey Bed is to die for and there’s no footboard to worry about getting in the way of long legs. The Whitaker Four Poster Bed in king-size is available for quick shipping as well as the Costa Bed. The Coast Bed would also be a great alternative to the Balboa Bed which is backordered until December.

If you need a new dresser, the Driftway Wide Dresser in chalk, the white Pierson Dresser in wide or tall, and the Balboa Dresser are all great quick shipping options.

It’s another beautiful Friday and I’ve spent my week working on a gorgeous install. I love being inspired while creating with my favorite things – soft shades of coastal blues and textured naturals in raffia and wicker! When working on my own living space or someone else’s, it’s so important to keep home essentials in mind because they’re the sugar and spice that give a home its personality. For this Friday’s Favorites, I’ll share some of my fun finds to inspire your own creative home design.

This Friday’s top find is this 7-piece blush dining set. This shade of pink is just lovely and the style has such a classy feel to it. If you’re wanting a smaller option for indoor or outdoor dining, a marble top bistro-style table would be the perfect addition, and you can pair it with these woven rattan dining chairs in sage or grey.

I am also loving this bright, yellow-striped sofa which has a cool, retro look to it, and it’s perfect for inside or outdoors. A white sofa would be a good option if you’re wanting more subtle seating and grab a patterned ottoman or two to add a little extra fun to your arrangement.

When it comes to lighting, I’m drawn to any option that has a raffia or wicker shade. Whether it’s a floor lamp or a table lamp, a natural shade adds such beautiful texture to your living space. Pendant lights, like this modern version of a candlestick lantern, are also great additions to help elevate and brighten a room!

I especially love adding light blue highlights to my living spaces. Whether it’s the simplicity of a pair of blue gingham and striped towels to hang in the kitchen, a Beautiful book to help decorate the coffee or end table, or a coastal blue wave duvet cover to dress up the bedroom, shades of blue help to encourage some much-needed calm around the house.

One of my other favorite home essentials is a wicker bar cart or rattan bar table because they’re so versatile and can be used in any part of your home. Store your bar cart with your favorite wine and drinking glasses or decorate it with a candle and a vase full of flowers to give it character. I also love placing a beautiful mirror above my bar cart to fill an empty wall and build on the space.

When deciding what essentials to use in your home, pick the items you feel drawn to most and the ones you know will add a little bit of charm to your home. And, if you need more inspiration to help you find the right essentials to fit your home, take a look at some of my favorite Serena and Lily finds, my Summer Home Refresh ideas, and the items I have in my own Living Room.

Happy Friday! I feel like summer is bringing with it so many fun fashion trends, and I’ve gathered some of my favorite finds to inspire your shopping spree! This summer we’re wearing whites and ruffles and dressing it up with big hats and sunglasses while enjoying the upcoming summer months.

Starting with dresses, if you’re wanting color, flaunt a boho-style printed maxi dress or this pretty pink floral maxi dress. So many dresses this summer are coming with ruffles like this basic blue dress, and I especially love the ruffles on this lavender dress – it’s sweet and romantic, and perfect for a summer date. Wear any of these dresses with these white scalloped espadrilles or white sandals to keep it clean and classic.

Eyeleted clothing is also in this season and there are so many pretty options in white to choose from. I have this white eyelet maxi dress and I love it! You can also snag this white eyelet mini dress or this eyelet top and dress up your white with patterned sandals, like these fun mustard gingham slides. You can also accessorize any of your outfits with a natural, woven raffia tote or bag and a pair of gold hoop earrings.

If you’re heading to the pool or the beach, add ruffles to your swimwear with a fun plaid french bikini set and, of course, wear a big sun hat and tortoise sunglasses on those hot summer days. I also think this seychelles tunic is perfect for enjoying a cocktail (or two) while relaxing on the beach, and if you need a good book to read while you sit in the sand, check out my Top Ten Summer Beach Reads!

Happy Friday and happy June! We’re so ready for summer and if you’re wanting to refresh your home to liven up your space for the upcoming summer months, I’ll be sharing with you this Friday’s Favorites to help inspire your home refresh ideas.

One of my absolute favorite finds this week is this beautiful hanging daybed. Add this piece to your front porch to comfortably enjoy those cool summer nights, and dress it up with all kinds of pillows in colorful and patterned pillow covers.

Add some new lighting and chairs around your house. This open weave bamboo table lamp will add some texture to whatever room it’s in, and this caned picture light sconce is a gorgeous piece to help highlight one of your favorite paintings or pictures. Add new seating options to your living room with this slatted wood accent chair or this blue rocking chair. And new counter stools, like this french blue pinstripe swivel stool or this rattan framed bistro-inspired stool, are a great way to update and enhance your dining room.

This sage floral headboard or this clean and classic white nightstand would look great in a bedroom! You can even include this sage floral ottoman in the mix, or use it in another room in your home. This textured, braided hyacinth stool would look great in any room and so would this cute wicker basket.

A favorite of mine to help upgrade your kitchen or dining room is this rattan-wrapped pedestal dining table. Dress it with these colorful raffia placemats and these pretty pink and green floral napkins when setting the table for dinner, and use beautiful, fresh flowers placed in a pretty vase as a centerpiece. Flowers are one of the best ways to freshen up any room in your home. You can also snatch this blue rattan and pine breakfast tray to enjoy breakfast in bed and start your summer days out on the right foot!

June is here! It’s so crazy how fast this year is already going by, and the cool, spring days are officially melting into warm, long, and hopefully fun summer nights. Of course, these days being busy doesn’t feel like it used to, and now that the world is opening back up, it seems like there’s always something to do or somewhere to go.

There’s always work – whether it’s for my job or tasks that need done around the house. And even though the kids are no longer in school, they’ve traded school days for summer sports and other activities. And then there’s those beautiful summer vacations, but even vacations take work.

However, in the midst of it, we can’t forget to continue taking care of ourselves so that we can keep giving and pouring from a full cup.

Thinking about my own self care routine, I try my best to make a little Me Time everyday and do at least one or more things on my list. So, here’s my list of self care routines to help inspire your own self care ideas.

Morning

In the mornings, I like to wake up early, maybe even an hour before I expect the kids to be up, and have some quiet time to myself while enjoying a cup of coffee. Sometimes I sit on the porch and soak in the warmer temps. If it’s a cooler time of year I like to curl up with a blanket on the sofa.

I always start the day with a workout. The best way for me to clear my head is with a morning run. And nothing makes my morning runs better than listening to an uplifting and motivating playlist to set the tone of my day while wearing a good pair of shoes and comfy workout clothes. Sometimes if I am in a hurry I like to grab a coffee or juice from my local coffee shop after.

Mid-morning / Midday / Afternoon

Eating healthy throughout the day always keeps me feeling my best and it’s one of the best things we can do to love and care for ourselves. I make sure to nourish my body not feed it. Lot’s of greens, veggies, and fruit. Sometimes I’ll pull out my juicer for a green juice or make a smoothie.

I also love spending time working in the garden, doing some yard work, or planting and replanting my indoor plants in beautiful pots. I especially love working in the dirt when I’m stressed because it helps keep me grounded.

Night

Having a good bedtime routine that helps you relax and wind down can be another essential self care tool. A relaxing bath is a great option, especially if you weren’t able to get your morning Me Time. Relax in a bubble bath or use a good bath bomb or bath salts to help soothe you.

Then, end your night with a little bit of reading before bed and wind down in a nice, comfy pair of pajamas.

As this summer starts, do me a favor and make a little time for yourself each day. You won’t regret it and you’ll have a better day just by taking time to love and care for YOU.
