Throughout today's post I'm featuring photos of my mother's new sunroom! I shared a sneak peek on Snapchat (kroyster815) awhile back, but wanted y'all to see the finished product! I think it turned out so well, and I'm super disappointed that I didn't have this apart of my house growing up! So jealous of my parents right now, ha!
And another Friday rolls around! What a crazy week this one has been. Another debate, Kim K got robbed, there's only 75ish days till Christmas and oh, the Vols are still undefeated, ha. While these are the pop culture news of the week, let us not forget that there is some serious stuff going on in our world right now. Not to get too deep with y'all, but there are far more important things in life than Kim losing her jewelry. I'm glad she's okay and safe; I'm not insensitive by any means. But there are many who have been and will be hit hard because of the current hurricane down in the Atlantic. So let's just keep our focus on praying for those affected, who have lost loved ones or their homes, and understand the difference between what is REAL news and what's not.
Any who, rant over, ha! Sorry for the deep initial thoughts this week y'all. But I guess I just don't understand the news sometimes, or what people find "important and trending." But I digress. Aside from all this, it was a rather slow week for me. I caught up on a lot of rest and was able to find some time on Wednesday for a little wine night with a few of my sweet friends. It was so nice catching up with Katie, Monica, Jenn and Bree.
As for this weekend, not much going on. Hoping to find the time to switch over my closet, finish decorating my apartment for fall, shoot some new outfit pics with Nicole and of course watch the Tennessee game. What are y'all up to?
Since we've already sort of hit the highlights and lowlight of this week, let's move straight into some link love shall we? This week's is a little different. I added an extra section below, focused on ways you can give back this month during National Breast Cancer Awareness.
