Martha’s Vineyard, here we come!

Happy Friday Y’all! We are headed to Martha’s Vineyard this weekend for some serious R & R. I’ve been traveling for work all week and then head back out Monday morning for a quick 48 hour work trip to Portland (who’s been?!) before spending the weekend in Newport, Rhode Island…and then Asia! Needless to say, we are a bit overwhelmed with the lack of time to prepare for this trip, but I placed a huge order from J. Crew (cover ups / bathing suits / basics for travel) and Amazon (sunscreen / chargers / medicine for travel) to help get all of my ducks in a row. Who else orders via Amazon to avoid spending an hour at Target!?

+ Finally finished All We Ever Wanted – what a great book this was. Different from the standard Emily Giffin novel, but I really enjoyed it. Now I’m reading The Perfect Couple – I just started last night and couldn’t put it down. I can tell I’m going to love this one!

+ Per y’all’s suggestion, I just stocked up on Sun Bum sunscreen for our Bali vacation  – any other “must have” toiletries or accessories that I should be getting?

+ Going to a fall black tie wedding? How about this dream dress.

+ This jacket I’ve been eyeing for a year is still sold out in my size/color. Ugh…

+ An interesting break down of intermittent fasting and what it’s all about

+ TPG shares why college kids should have a credit card – I totally agree as it’s so important to build your credit while young! (with limits, of course)
