This week I was running on fumes. Many early mornings, added caffeine and supportive friends & family kept me going. I am looking forward to the weekend when I can hopefully catch up on sleep and I’m also so excited to be celebrating my friend Carly’s baby shower this weekend as well!
I hope you enjoy this week’s roundup (it’s a hefty one!) and have a wonderful weekend!

I am loving this one, this one, this chic two piece set, this one, this one (that back!!), this one, this one, this one, this one, this one, this one, this one (that back!!) and this one. I always recommend sizing up in this brand – even two sizes if you have a bigger chest.

It’s super lightweight and absorbs so, so fast. It’s also fragrance-free for all of you with sensitive skin or noses! Summer skin, here you come!
