I got back from Harbour Island and it was like I was shot out of a cannon for Spoleto, my caftan party, and a few other things! It has been a BUSY (but extremely fun) couple of weeks. I go to LA for a week and when I get back, life slows down and will be much calmer. I’m looking forward to some relaxing pool time, reading (I’ve barely read this month!), and getting back into a routine.
PS - a bunch of the items I wore were from The RealReal. I’m linking my tips & tricks for shopping The RealReal, hope it is helpful!
PPS - these are the best party shoes as they are super comfortable, v v cute, and won’t break the bank.
