Monday, My Day

What a weekend. Let me start by saying that the violent events in our country over the weekend are terrible and shocking. I spent a lot of time reflecting, and my hope is that hate becomes less a part of our culture across the board. Whether that is in something as ghastly as mass shootings or as simple as caddy behavior, there is no place for hate. 

All of that being said, I have a few happenings and links to share with you to start this week off on the right foot. I hope these events and links find you well! 

Favorite Links:

Forgive me if I become obnoxious about heading to the beach, but I'll be sitting my happy butt in the sand exactly three weeks from today. We're making our annual trip to 30A, and I can't wait! I'm pumped to check out a few new restaurants including Chiringo. 

Speaking of the beach, I've had my sights set on a GiGi Pip hat to take with me. Which style do you think? 

Ponce City Market is still one of our favorite places to take out of town guests. We dined at The Mercury on Friday, and enjoyed it from start to finish. Their classic cocktail menu is awesome! Check it out if you get a chance. 

Don't forget that you can get 15% off of your new set of Perfect Linen sheets with the code: PolkaDots15. 

Favorite Happenings:

D.Geller and Son just launched their latest Tacori styles for summer. I never knew Tacori did anything other than beautiful engagement rings, but after having a ball at #blingforbloggers, I'm making a list of pieces from the Sonoma Mist collection to add to my repertoire. And if you know someone in the market for an engagement ring, D.Geller and Son has some incredible incentives right now! 

My BIL and SIL were in town this weekend, and we spent the majority of Saturday at the Braves game. While the Braves didn't bring home a win, we did get to rub elbows with Dale Murphy (a former LEGENDARY Braves' player), Bill Murray (he sat 2 rows behind us) and Jason Bateman (!!!). I totally do not play it cool around celebrities. 

I booked my ticket and room for Alt Summit last Friday. You might remember my review here, and I can't believe I get to go again (special thanks to Annette!). Unfortunately, this year's Palm Springs conference is completely sold out, but if you're looking to learn more about blogging, consider attending Haven, Create & Cultivate, or the Southern C (all of which I hope to go to!).
