Happy Friday!
I know I should say something about it being like unofficial last weekend of summer but thb, this summer flew by and I feel like I didn’t really get a summer. I guess that’s adulting right? I’m so looking forward to the next couple of months and I’m ready to say see ya to August. Hopefully, though, I’ll be able to get one more day in at the pool on Monday. Are you doing anything for the long weekend?

What I bought & what I want
I’m really getting into shopping for fall and loving all things fall floral. I tried this dress, but it was too big all the way around so I returned it to try this one.
I was returning something at Nordstrom Rack (it’s so easy with one right down the street from my office) and this cutie little Bobeau dress caught my eye. I kind of have to be careful with this fit as it can make me look bigger than I am/ 12, but I sent this onto a group chat of my girls and it was approved. Bobeau isn’t a brand I’d heard of before but I think it’s now competing with Halogen for a spot in my Nordstrom Rack heart. Marisa suggested paring it with booties and a denim jack for fall like that wasn’t already totally my plan. 😉
The Amor bag from Urban Expressions keeps catching my eye. Rose gold AND heart shaped? It might be made for me!
Don’t forget you can always peek at my wish list over in my sidebar. Here’s what I’m currently craving:
Around the internet
I caught myself trying to hold back snort laughter reading this article: “We Ate at Three of the Worst-Rated DC Restaurants on Yelp. Here’s What Happened.” via Washingtonian
I spy a familiar face or two on the best dressed list from Dîner en Blanc. via DC Refined
For anyone who likes to play around with color, I highly suggest trying out Color Hex. You can see what colors are popular and even save your own palettes. It’s kind of like an interactive Pantone on a much smaller scale.

Kendall and I were talking about going to Disney World for my 30th next March but it looks like that’s actually around the time we’ll take our honeymoon for our first anniversary. ANYWAY- I love this look into what people wear to Disney parks around the world. via Refinery 29
