After sharing this post the other day highlighting a few of my favorite Etsy designers, I wanted to share a few more with y'all! I love the chance to support fellow small business owners through their Etsy shops and there are some great ones out there!
Be There in Five
I love the original "be there in five" since I'm typically texting that as I run out the door (a few minutes late...) but the positive affirmation one like "have the best day" is also a great one!
Brant Point Prep
The Lilly inspired koozies and wine are the cutest and make great gifts! I gave these two to my friends as a little housewarming gift with a bottle of wine!
Collyn Raye
Obviously I love her designs (see my off-the-shoulder top HERE) and think some of the styles like this black gingham peplum top would be so cute in the fall!
I discovered this shop when I was searching for aerial beach photography and was surprised when I saw that some of her photos of the Jersey Shore were from my mom's hometown!
Happily Ever LCP *Lauren's shop is currently on vacation but I highly recommend getting notified when she's back! She makes the cutest Lilly headbands and dog bandanas like the ones Lucy and I are wore on the 4th of July!
Sequins & Lipstick
Tammy's shop has some of the cutest personalized gifts and of course I love all of her ginger jar designs! She was so sweet to send me some monogram cups that I used for my beach happy hour post!
St. Armands Designs
Sweet Kristina sent me some of her gorgeous tassel earrings (that are only $25) and they are such a fun statement piece! I can't wait to see what new colors she has in store for fall!
Hope y'all had a great weekend! I don't know about you but I am so excited for the upcoming long weekend. We have friends coming in town and a new boat that is finally ready to be picked up so we'll get the spend lots of time on the water this weekend, my favorite place to be!
Speaking of spending time by the water, I often forget what a blessing it is that I live close to Tybee Island, so it was great to go out there for a little evening beach happy hour a couple weeks ago!
My Coastal Living magazine had just arrived so I tossed it in my tote, along with my new favorite White Claw spiked seltzer (the black cherry flavor is my favorite so far but I do have the grapefruit in my fridge for this weekend!) I cannot tell y'all how much I enjoy just sitting back with a cold drink and reading my favorite mags, especially in such a gorgeous setting like this one!
Last weekend, Robbie and I didn't have any plans so we decided to take a spontaneous trip up to our favorite southern city! Though we love our home, neighborhood, and friends in Savannah... we sure do miss life in Charleston. It was great to visit our old favorite places, as well as check off some new spots that have been on my list- like Leon's! It was a quick weekend trip but I wanted to share a few snapshots from the trip!
We got in town Saturday around lunchtime and had to run to Mt. Pleasant for a few things so we stopped and had lunch at Sesame, where I had my favorite "Carolina" chicken sandwich with pimento cheese and sweet potato fries.
Window shopping at Vieuxtemps, one of my favorite gift boutiques on King Street. Natalie, the owner is the sweetest!
King Street on a beautiful sunny afternoon!
This pretty blue swing dress has become a staple in my closet this month, especially during a warm summer afternoon since it's so breezy and cool! I can't wait to share more photos of it on the blog soon!
We met up with Robbie's cousin for oysters and drinks (^^ Lillet Royale) at The Darling Oyster Bar.
It was so fun to try a new place for oysters and The Darling did not disappoint! After drinks we headed down the street to our reservation at O-Ku. Their Salmon & Lemon Roll is hands down my favorite sushi roll and I have been missing it!
After dinner we walked to one of our favorite spots, The Rooftop at Vendue (it was a bit of a walk, hence the nice and glistening skin haha!) One of my best friends was in town for her sister-in-law's bachelorette party and it was so fun getting to see her there, even if it was just for a short time. I'm so excited that I get to see her again Labor Day weekend! I wore this adorable gingham off-the-shoulder top and my favorite new pink tassel earrings, with this straw clutch, all of which will be styled on the blog soon!
Lunch at Leon's!! I have been dying to go here for so long but never got the chance until last Sunday! I ordered the Siam Salad and Robbie had the fried oyster sandwich, which were both delicious!
Lucy pup got a little tired on the walk home from Leon's so her daddy was kind enough to carry her! Spoiled much!? ;) You may also have seen on my Instagram how much she loved the water bowls all the stores had outside!
Before we knew it, it was Sunday afternoon and time to head back home after a fun weekend getaway!
