Welcome to the weekend!! It’s almost time to bring on a slower pace with less on the agenda! Just kidding – we have kids! We have a loaded weekend with basketball, baseball and 2 birthday parties, plus we are kicking off the start of Fall Break. The boys are working on their Fall Break bucket lists so we’ll have some things to tackle. I’m back today with a new Friday Five, so come on over and stay awhile!
To catch up on all of the posts in The Friday Five series, you can see them all here.
THE FRIDAY FIVE
ONE // BACK IN STOCK & WILL BE GREAT FOR THE HOLIDAYS!
One of my very favorite entertaining pieces is back in stock and under $20! This wooden serving tray with gold handles has been one of my most used items when hosting. I grab for it all year long. You can see all of the various snack & grazing boards I’ve put together here.

What I love most about the tray that it has a slight lip around the edge to keep everything from falling off. It makes carrying it across the kitchen that much less of a worry! Its also the perfect size which makes it easy to stow away when not in use.

Plus the gold handles are major heart eyes!
Highly recommend! This would make a great hostess or holiday gift, too!
TWO // FAVORITE FALL ITEMS FROM TRADER JOE’S
The mornings are finally nice and cool [well at least under 90 degrees] and I’m starting to crave all things pumpkin. No PSL yet, but I have enjoyed an iced coffee with pumpkin cold foam that was absolutely delightful! I’m gearing up for a Trader Joe’s run this weekend or early next week and I’m planning to stock up on all things Fall & Pumpkin while I’m there.
I put together this list of favorite Fall items from Trader Joe’s last year and I can’t wait to bring everything home again this season. I’ll let you know if I try any new Fall items that are noteworthy!
THREE // ADDING THEM ALL TO MY *READ NEXT* LIST
I’ve followed the Everygirl for years and they just release their list of the Most anticipated books of Fall 2021. Since I just got my library card a couple weeks ago, I’m going to add these all to my wishlist. The library will notify me when it’s my turn for each book I add. Its such a great feature!
FOUR // OBSESSED WITH THIS NEW CUFF
I shared my new bracelet on my stories this week and several of you purchased. If you haven’t had a chance to check out this gorgeous edgy, yet dainty cuff, I urge you to do so! It looks great with any chain link or beaded bracelets. I love it so much!

Here is a better shot of it. The texture & subtle sparkle is 🙌🙌
I love the hoops from this line as well!
FIVE // WHAT’S IN MY SHOPPING CART: LOFT
If you missed my recent try-on haul this week, then you can check it out here. It was full of budget-friendly finds all from Walmart and so many great Fall basics. I’m always shopping here and there from various retailers, but happen to fill my cart up with these 6 items from LOFT — all 50% off plus free shipping!
I’ll share the pieces I love in a LOFT haul next month, so stay tuned!
How cute is this leopard puff sleeve & this striped zip sweatshirt?!
