It’s been a while since I shared a “5 Things I’m Loving 8/26/24” post, so I thought I’d get back to sharing these on Mondays, along with the other posts. I hope you enjoy this fun round-up of things I’m loving this week.

  • Beautiful Wedding Guest Dresses to Wear This Fall
  • 10 Beautiful Shoes to Plan all of Your Fall Outfits Around

I also want to highlight a few wins from last week that made me happy.

Wins from Last Week:

I’ve been saying for about a year now that I wanted to create a healthy WFH schedule. When you run your own business, it’s tough to stick to set hours, and it can be exhausting. Plus, when I’m overworked, my creativity just drains away. So, I mentioned that I ordered this rattan frame dry erase board to help me stay on track during my “working hours,” and it’s been a total game changer. I highly recommend it!

I sleep in until 7:45 am, take Goldie for a walk, make my cappuccino, and get to work by 8:30 am. I work until 5 pm and then squeeze in a workout before dinner. I’m thinking about moving my workout earlier in the day soon, especially since daylight savings will make it get dark earlier. This is Monday-Friday.

Taking Saturday and Sunday off was a game changer—it let me relax, read a book, and enjoy more time with my family. The only work I did was sending out a newly designed weekend newsletter and posting on Facebook and Instagram.

Since I’m a one-woman show, there’s always a lot on my plate, but I’m having so much fun right now. With fall around the corner, I’m feeling super inspired.

One big change I’ve made recently is posting more than one article a day—sometimes even three! I really want my blog to be a place where you can find all sorts of inspiration. If you have any suggestions, I’d love to hear them!

Oh, and I’ve got something really fun up my sleeve that should be launching soon. I’m hoping to share it by the end of this week or early next week. Stay tuned for the big announcement!

5 Things I’m Loving 8/26/24

Tab Ankle Socks

I ordered two sets of these tab socks online over the weekend and I’m going to pick them up at the store today. They tend to sell out quickly, so I was excited to see them in stock in lots of great colors. I especially love the tabs because they keep my sneakers from rubbing on the back of my foot.

Back Into Reading

I finally took the time to read this book, It Ends with Us, and it was a good one. After I finished it I quickly ordered the sequel online, It Starts with Us, and will pick it up today.

Ellie Nap Dress

When I saw this dress online I knew I had to add it to my cart. It’s the perfect dress for fall here in Miami, and since this will be my second Hill House Elie dress, I already know it’s going be a winner.
