friday five

We've officially welcomed the refreshing season of fall this week! While the temperatures are still warm here in the lowcountry, I'm already embracing all things fall-ish. Pumpkin spice latte's, cozy candles and some lightweight pashmina's to finish off an outfit.

For the first time in quite a while I don't have anything planned for this weekend. As much as I love having a jammed packed schedule, I'm looking forward to scaling back and simply relaxing for the next few days. I'll be cheering on UGA against Ole Miss, retreating with some magazines/books to the beach and enjoying some morning yoga. Here's what's brought me bursts of joy all week long...

Have a wonderful fall-filled weekend!

    Love this ~ everyone is chatting about just having a lazy fall weekend and I absolutely agree ~ I cannot wait to start it!

    PS ~ Thank you for sharing about green monsters ~ I've been curious about adding veggies into smoothies and this sounds totally reasonable.

    Happy Weekend~

    What an adorable save the date!! Did they illustrate it?? Where are you staying in Miami, usually the Delano is our go-to, but this year we will prob switch it up. oh and yes, cake balls are a lot harder, or really way MORE time consuming than I thought!! lol
