Hiiii! These last few weeks have zipped right on by and Maycember is already here. You know, that totally crazy time of the year when all the things are crammed into one month. End-of-year parties, ceremonies, field trips, sports, and all things kids. My head is spinning already. I wanted to pop in with one more Friday Five before all the full-blown chaos begins!

THE FRIDAY FIVE
ONE // CHARLESTON SNEAK PEEK
Girls trip to Charleston is in the books! I’m planning to do a full trip recap post next week, but I’ll just say we had the best time! I highly recommend a trip in the Spring. The first time I visited was in the Summer and it was so hot and humid! Since its a very walkable city, I prefer the 70’s!
There were 7 of us taking in the city together. Food, fun, drinks, dancing and lots and lots of walking! I’ll share more soon!
TWO // CAN’T STOP WON’T STOP WITH MY BELT BAG
One of my most requested links over the last few months has been for my black belt bag. And I get it – I wear it alllll the time! It is the perfect on-the-go purse for sports days and nights or running errands. I absolutely love it.
Unfortunately, mine is sold out from S&D from a couple years ago, but I went out searching for similar options for you girls that are on the hunt! It is a year-round closet staple accessory in my book.
This everywhere bag has a cult following and this one I just found for only $20!
If you don’t have a belt bag yet, go get yourself one. I promise you’ll love it and will thank me later!!
THREE // TARGET SALE!
If someone can teach me how to not buy all the things at Target, that’d be great. And if you can also teach me how to not buy all the things at Target when they’re on sale, then that would be even better!
Hands-down the best place for basics and affordable, elevated tops & tees, plus a slew of designer-inspired shoes. The list goes on and on. All women’s clothes, shoes and accessories are 20% off with the Target circle app right now.
I’m absolutely loving my two most recent sandal purchases – these raffia slides and these bow sandals. Both are great neutral colors and you just can’t beat the price!
I shared these braided sandals in a Weekend Wants post and ended up being a top seller last month!
This top, these shorts, this tank, this dress and this tee were also recent additions to my closet.
Dresses are 30% off right now, so the one I ordered is only $8.40!
And my latest order, hasn’t arrived yet, but this is what I grabbed!
FOUR // END-OF-YEAR TEACHER GIFTS
How are we so close to the end of the school year already? I mean, seriously! My boys have 3 weeks to go so I’m prepping end-of-year teacher gifts right now and thought I would share a couple of easy ideas if you’re looking to do the same!
Last year, I attached a little notecard to these cute pouches & stuck Target gift cards. You can find the teacher gift idea tutorial and FREE printables in this post here.
Another year, I attached a gift tags & movie gift cards to bags of Skinny Pop!
I love how bright & colorful they are!

FIVE // LATEST GUILTY PLEASURE I’M BINGING
I realize I’m a couple years late to the party, but found myself hooked on Selling Sunset this week. I feel like there was always celebrity buzz and gossip involving the cast members of the show and my curiosity got the best of me the other day, so I flipped on Netflix and started Season 1, Episode 1.
Ted was traveling this week for work, so I’m quite a bit further along than I would normally be after only a few days in. oops! A peek inside these incredibly stunning, multi-million dollar homes in the Hollywood Hills plus the drama between the agents in the office – it sucked me in!
Another show we were late to the party for was “Friday Night Lights”. I know! It first aired in 2007 and I’m not sure why I didn’t start watching then or even within the next couple years, but we binged all 5 seasons earlier this year and absolutely fell in love. Beginning to end, it had our hearts the whole way through. I may need to post another list of binge-worthy shows because we certainly have done more than our fair share of binging these last couple of years.
You can see my original list of Shows to Binge Watch Now here.
That’s it for today!
Happy early Mother’s Day weekend to all of you wonderful mamas out there! I hope you are all able to spend some quality time with the special ladies in your life. And if you are a mom or mom-to-be, I hope you are treated and celebrated to the max!!
I’ll be hanging with the fam and hopefully sneaking in some ORC work in the bathroom. Stay tuned for next week’s update 😉
See you back here soon!
