    A seemingly random recommendation but y’all I just discovered iced tea. I mean, I used to buy it but I had never realized how simple (and cheap!) it was to make at home.

    I really enjoy this print by Becca Stadtlander.

    Link love…

    • This black and white shift dress looks so comfortable. I’m picturing it paired with an oversized cardigan.
    • Hey guys, look! I like a striped top that isn’t black and white!
    • This cardigan looks soooo cozy.
    • I’m really into neckerchiefs at the moment. I just found these ones and I can’t even pick a favorite! So many good patterns.
    • Take it easy! I only wish this tapestry were bigger!
    • Pumpkin sheet masks! Don’t mind me, just wishing for fall.
    • The color + fit of these jeans looks perfect. They’ve even available on Prime Wardrobe so you can try before you buy!

    Happy Friday!
    xoxo

    PS. I have a ton more rad finds here! This week I made a list featuring some fall clothing picks! It was an awfully hot week but hey, a girl can dream of layers, right!?
