Happy Sunday everyone! I’ve been in New York City this weekend for one of my girlfriend’s birthdays! I absolutely love the city in the summer. I adore time spent in the Hamptons too but it’s hard to beat a summer weekend in the city when everyone flees for the beach and you feel like you have the city all to yourself. I’m sneaking in a couple meetings tomorrow and then heading back to Charleston in the evening.
After a lot of travel in May and June so far, I’m really looking forward to being home the rest of the month! I hope everyone has enjoyable Sunday plans! We’re doing a birthday brunch at Old Rose today but if you are just at nesting at home, then sneak a peak at my Summer Reading List for a wonderful new book to curl up with! Keep reading for my Weekend Reads, No. 66 for a soon-to-be must-watch show, two summer travel guides, Lauren Conrad’s favorite female run small businesses, thoughts on what Kate Spade meant to the fashion and consumer world, my favorite pieces from Tuckernuck, and more. Enjoy! xx
