Weekend Reads, No. 28

Happy Mother’s Day loves! It’s such a beautiful day to celebrate our moms! I’m sending my mom lots of Mother’s Day love to Charleston and celebrating today in Los Angeles with Edwin’s family. We’re having a big family brunch! What are your Mother’s Day plans? If you need some downtime today after a big brunch then read my Weekend Reads for some fun articles (travel guides, cocktail napkin finds, wedding veils, & more!), shopping finds, and can’t miss sales. Enjoy! Lots of love from me to all my mom readers! xx
