Front Porch Coffee Talk

in Front Porch Coffee Talk on 05/24/19

Hi friends! Happy Memorial Day weekend! Both boys have officially wrapped up school and we are excited to have a staycation here in the ATL this weekend. Honestly, I was feeling slightly guilty that I didn’t have something grand planned for the boys this weekend. But then at carpool Sweet P got in the car and said “I just want to feel empty”.  I immediately knew our decision to stay put was right and that we could all use a little downtime. So let the “emptiness” begin! 🙂

Today I am starting a new series called Front Porch Coffee Talk.  Just pretend we are two friends sitting on the front porch having some coffee and chit-chatting about whatever is on our mind. I certainly wish I could brew you up a cup of coffee and hear all about your crazy May and your summer plans!

As I mentioned, yesterday was the last day of school. I impressed myself when I remember to snap this picture! PSA: If you still have school left or forgot to snap a picture- do it! Get out your letter board or you can download this version that I use for free.  It’s so fun to see how much they have grown over the year. Or in our case- how many teeth we have lost. (that would be 4!)

I whipped up these last minute teacher gifts this week- thanks to my friend over at This is Our Bliss. All of the items came from CVS.  Done and done! 

My current favorite white jeans are still on sale 40%! These are a super cute fit and love that double fray! White jeans are a staple around here in the summer and these are a fun twist on the classic. 

White Jeans   |   Navy Blouse  |    GREEN BUFFALO CHECK RUG     

While we are on the subject of my favorite things and sales, the infamous buffalo check rug is an extra 15% making it under $12. It sold out last year so if you have been on the fence- snag it sister!

STRIPED SUNDRESS  |   YELLOW STATEMENT EARRINGS   |   GREEN BUFFALO CHECK RUG 
 |   SANDALS  |   LEMON WREATH   |  LEOPARD RUG

Our friends hosted a dinner party last weekend and I thought she made the prettiest flower centerpiece perfect for an outdoor soiree! 

I am currently about half way through The Southern Side of Paradise. Definitely a cute read and will make a great summer beach read. What are you reading? Would love any fun summer recs! 

Last but not least, there are tons of great sales this weekend. Here are a few I have my eye on:

J CREW:  is having a 40% off sale. I just ordered this white dress for our trip to Coastal Mississippi next weekend. 

NORDSTROM: It’s their half yearly sale! Lots of good finds are 50% off. 

SERENA and LILY– The ENTIRE site is on sale 20% off! I wish I could pull the trigger on my navy dream bar stools! 

TARGET: I already blabbered on about the rug, but these sandals are also 20% off and they are comfy. I also have had these in the rotation lots already!

LOFT: Everything is 40% off! Time to stock up- and grab the White Jeans  already! 🙂

J CREW FACTORY: Everything is 50% off! 

WAYFAIR: Lots of goodies on sale, and I am SOOOO tempted to pull the trigger on this rug for our powder room. 

OLD NAVY: The boys could use a few new items for summer so I will definitely be checking out Old Navy for that.

 

What are you up to this week? Let me know!

xoxo-

Heather
