Happy weekend my lovely friends! Here are my favorite shares from the week…
1) How to Grow Your Instagram Following. If you’re a blogger, or are just looking for a platform in social media, this is probably something on your mind. Instagram is hands down my favorite social media platform, as I have found many, many things I love such as: style, design, recipes, local happenings, and even friends! Brittany of Thrifts and Threads offers her tips on how she has grown her following.
2) Why I Got Rid of the Toys. Please skip this one of you don’t have kids. ;) But if you do, it’s well worth the read. My kids’ bedroom always looks like the little girl’s room in the first picture. Help me. My husband and I are plotting how we can do this.
3) On Beauty: Thoughts About Aging and Appearance. Jen Tam of Her Waise Choice contemplates breaking the link between a woman’s identity and her appearance. Hard for me to personally wrap my mind around, but something very important to consider. I don’t want my beauty being strictly on the outside. It’s a very honest blog post and overall a lovely blog with excellent photography.
4) Cocktail Recipe: Cucumber, Ginger & Prosecco Sangria. I promise I’m not an alcoholic. In fact, right now my cupboards are pretty dry. But this. THIS sounds so yummy. Must try before the summer is over. You’re welcome.
5) Meet Chuck II, The First New Converse All Star Design in 100 Years Have you guys seen seen these? It’s hard to change an icon in way that will please everyone, but I think the new updates look pretty slick. Minor tweaks with a little Nike cushion added. So will the old ones become collectors items?
Hey girl! Thanks for the shoutout. Loving reading through your blog too – so many great posts! xo
Thanks for stopping by Jen! :)
