TGIF! So many fun things going on over the next 48 hours I'm unsure how to do it all...though I'm sure that's the highest form of a champagne problem. A few MAJOR sales are happening as we speak, and we all know nothing cures stress like a healthy dose of retail therapy. Of note...
SHOP
If you don't already know that Shopbop is having a 25% off sale on sale, then you're name must be Kimmy Schmidt. It only lasts through tonight so GET ON IT, ladies! Some highlights from the sale...
Lace-up Espadrilles | Striped Shorts | Rainbow Midi Dress | Blush Platforms | White Lace Dress | Embroidered Cami | Coral Ruffle Dress
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
LOFT is also running a crazy good sale, offering 40% off everything! This OTS dress and this romper make great Fourth of July options, plus this super cute gingham drop-waist dress. Gingham is so big right now, have you noticed? You can also snag sale items at an additional 40% off including a lot of pretty, tailored shorts. I picked up a striped pair (not available online), and may need to go back for this blue pair and these scalloped white lacy ones.

Since I started writing this post, I've received emails announcing even more sales from brand faves:
Joie - Most of the time I think Joie is a bit overpriced for what it is, so I certainly appreciate their sales. Liking this striped top!
Equipment - I've had a leopard print Equipment dress on my wish list for a while now. Maybe this one? Love the flattering tie waist and button front (#alwaysnursing)
Tibi - Cool girls wear poplin ruffed overalls. I want to be a cool girl.
Zara - I want it all but I'll start with these tangerine metallic mules

On the subject of scoring a good deal, it's that time again for Asheville Flea for Y'all. Vintage vendors and purveyors of industrial to modern antiques will be showcasing their goodies at Salvage Station from 9A-4P. Given the venue, I'm assuming you can buy a beer and sip while you shop. Sounds like a can't-miss!

Why is Ivanka Trump getting singled out by Aquazzara for replicating the Wild Thing sandal? I've only seen like a million copies by everyone from Steve Madden to Banana Republic. Speaking of, I really wanted those in red...

Pregnant women should start planning for their postpartum hair before they give birth, said a male hairstylist. To which this mom replied 'sure, I'll get right on that between the nausea, sleeplessness, emotional turmoil, and pushing a human being out of my body.' But these baby bangs tho...

The Game of Thrones season finale is this Sunday and I have NO idea what to expect! Some say there's a chance The Red Wedding Part 2 is going down with a flip of the script...

DINE
Crushing hard on all things pale blue right now (I swear it has nothing to do with my alma mater this time!). I want the entire collection of blue and white tableware from Furbish, as well as any of these pretty little things.

Blueberry. Balsamic. Grilled Cheese. Stop it.
Enjoy the weekend!
