Five On Friday


Happy Friday y'all! This week has actually flown by but I am so looking forward to the weekend and some quality time with my favorite guy! It has actually been nice to have a "normal" week, mostly so I can get caught up on Sweet Tea Monograms orders and get back to my usual routine (a squeeze in some time to write blog posts yay!)

1. Cold Tangerines

I just finished Shauna Niequest's book, Cold Tangerines (thanks Audible and long car rides!) and was so inspired! It is a collection of stories from the author's life that talks about celebrating the extraordinary moments found in your life. The last book I finished on Audible was Love Does by Bob Goff and this reminded me a lot of that- little stories celebrating the everyday miracles that God creates.



2. The Design Belle's Mother's Day Gift Guide

Still looking for that last minute Mother's Day gift? I love these cute choices from my sweet friend Jessica's blog, The Design Belle. Personally I love option #8- some of the new monogrammed tanks from the Sweet Tea Monograms shop! :)


3. Tory Burch Wedges

So I have a little confession... I am kind of obsessed with these wedges. I usually don't wear heels that are over 4" high (since I'm already 5'10" and all...) but I'm seriously considering ditching that little "rule" of mine for these! They're the perfect neutral wedge that can be worn with just about anything, and I love the metallic gold weave in the heel.

4. State Pride Monogram Shirts

I've just added a short sleeve version of these State Pride Monogram shirts to the shop. You can choose from different fabrics, including these gingham prints shown, and pick your favorite state. I love how these Georgia and Texas shirts turned out for one of our customers and I think they would make a great gift for the new grad!

{the GA shirt is pink gingham with turquoise outline and "Empire" monogram & the TX shirt is aqua gingham with emerald outline and "Empire" monogram}


5. Beaufort, SC

Robbie and I are off to Beaufort later today to spend the weekend at his parents house! Summer weekends in Beaufort are quickly becoming one of my new favorite things. I love relaxing out on their dock and watching the boats go by! Being outside, on the water is definitely my "happy place" - especially during those warm summer nights with a glass of red wine in hand. :)

Beaufort is such a cute, quaint seaside town (a little over an hour south of Charleston) and has some great shops and restaurants on the Waterfront Park. It was named Coastal Living's Happiest Seaside Town last year and they did a little Weekend Getaway feature with some of their favorite picks!

  1. I love everything about this post! Beaufort is so wonderful. Alex and I were surprised by how much that little town captured us in such a short amount of time. I think I'll definitely have to stop in there again someday. Also, those wedges. Gorgeous! And finally, your new shirts are absolutely perfect. I am definitely going to order a FL one when I move back home. It makes me so happy to see your monogram business going so well! xoxo
