I’m at day 2 of a blogging workshop thrown by The Bloguettes today in Los Angeles (it’s actually 3 days long but I couldn’t attend day 1 because of work) and my head is just full of new things I’m learning and new ideas I have for R&R. Before beginning the workshop on Saturday morning, I started the weekend off with my girlfriends on Friday night at our monthly supper club (more on how to start your own supper club group here). I was so happy yesterday because all my football teams won including the Buffs (I teared up when they did!). If you’re enjoying a lazy Sunday morning, then take a moment to browse through my weekend reads below. I’ve got articles on engagement rings, healthy lifestyles, and Southern artists + some of the best weekend sales and my favorite shopping finds of the week.
Weekend Reads:
1. My best friend, Allison, did a wonderful interview on one of my daily reads, Bungalow 1. It’s a must read (so is the interview I did with Allison!). (bugalow1.com)

3. The 6 big mistakes to avoid when buying an engagement ring. (vogue.com)

With Love From R&R:

4. Plaid shirts to kick off autumn.
