Is it finally Friday?! It feels like ages since I've shared a weekly roundup and I'm so happy to be back at it. This week passed without too much action (besides a little road trip to find a few new pairs of denim... hooray!) but I'm super excited for the weekend. I'm hoping Saturday will be full of trips to the pool, family time and finishing up the second season of Game of Thrones (I know, we're soooo far behind) and I'm working on super a fun shoot Sunday. Hopefully your weekends leave time for a little sun chasing and adventure having!

A few links I've loved lately:

Summer was made for dining al fresco! While I love a good outdoor cafe, there's something so special about taking it one step further with a well-packed basket and the perfect shady spot in the park. Inspired by A Sunny Afternoon's Summer lookbook, I pulled together my favorite essentials for outdoor dining.

With a few repeat offenders (my panama hat is basically living on me this Summer and I still need to pick up the perfect cruiser), my list of picnic perfect accessories is teeming with adult lunchbox supplies, the most gorgeous serving boards and a few fun things to wear. Who said every picnic has to have paper plates?!

Madelynn Hackwith Furlong, blogger of Wide Eyed Legless, stylist for Hackwith Design House and Target designer, may only be 24 but her home has some serious style (I'm dying to take a few cues from it)! She shares a loft-style apartment with her husband in St. Paul Minnesota. The pair has created a comfortable and inviting space (complete with custom homemade furniture) that's just begging to be emulated by lovers of minimal design. Loving the space?
