Happy Memorial Day Weekend! I'm off today headed to a place where I can have some fun in the sun.... and maybe an adult bev or two as well :)

- Two really insightful/thought provoking articles: "10 Lessons I Learned From Surviving My 20s" All 10 are great lessons, but #5 really made me take pause - truly something I've never considered before.

and "Zosia Mamet On Why She Won't Lean In, Thanks" A must read read. I am absolutely identifying with her sentiments here.

- Great look.

- Weekly OH MY GOSSSSHHHHH animal post. 

- So much inspiration to be found on Ashley Goforth's new website. Every single project is pin worthy. When I saw the above picture, I said out loud, at my computer - 'that's effing great!' Gorgeous, gorgeous work.

- I posted on Instagram about how I am going to be trying out some R+F products. Would love to hear if any of you use their products and what you think of them!

Enjoy your weekend! Hope you are able to take a moment to pause and send some thanks out not only for the long weekend, but also to the men and women who have given their lives in service to our country.

We've made it! Just a few more hours until the weekend. I'm headed to Dallas for a girls weekend and am looking forward to some great food, big laughs and catching up with great friends. Hope you have a great weekend planned! Until you can get to it, here are my favs of the internet this week.

- Got the most adorable vase recently - it's a modern take on a run of the mill bud vase. It's perfect for some roses and peony buds from the garden.

- This list is golden: 100 Wise Words For Everyone.

- As if my 'house wish list' weren't long enough, I am now adding new stair railing to it because of this Insta snapshot.

- Speaking of house wish lists, the Hubs and I started our kitchen renovation conversation this week. We are still a long way away from this project, but it never hurts to start the planning process early. And I never thought I would consider Ikea cabinets...  but because of this blog post, I just might!

- Have you seen my 'to aspire to' board on Pinterest? It is quickly becoming one of my favs, thanks to images like this. Proof that age can bring not only wisdom, but style as well :)

- I recently picked up some mule heels and have been wearing them nonstop. How do you feel about this style being back en vogue?

Happy Friday!

I find the internet to be a very inspiring place in all sorts of ways. Whether it be a great image, a great article, story or video, I am always so grateful for the fun web things that find their way to me. So, I wanted to start doing a little round-up of internet items that have inspired me throughout the week and share them here in case you haven't seen them yet!

I would be remiss if I didn't mention that this blogger, this blogger, this blogger and this blogger are the ones who gave me the idea to do these posts. I love seeing what these ladies think is the best of the internet each week, and I so look forward to their Friday round-ups!
