07.04 || This Week I

…felt inspired to have a good ol’ American beach day.
…added boatloads of summery new arrivals to the Shop and launched our Fourth of July sale; 15% off all SUMMER items with code AMERICA.
…shopped the Tory Burch summer sale and oxfords I’ve been lusting after finally found their way into my cart. #tomboyatheart 
…agreed with T&C on some entertaining musts.
…started to count down till I co-host the Brand Market Workshop with Anna in a city where Martha came to be, Chicago!  Only 20 seats loves, so snag your ticket now!   
…embraced the rollercoaster like Kate and headed words of wisdom from 21 other amazing women.
…discovered a fabulous artist thanks to Gaby.
…sent big hugs to all those in NC this weekend…be safe!
…urged my Atlanta Creatives to sign up for this amazing workshop.
…drooled over this take on a summer salad.
…craved everything over at A Sunny Afternoon, but I especially have my eye on one of THESE.
…prepared to celebrate America’s independence with family, friends and a whole lotta’ pie!  
…received my first mean comment on Instagram.  And not constructive mean (though I’m not sure thats a thing), like just mean.  I won’t delve too much into it as mean comments are nothing new to Bloggers or to anyone who puts themselves out there creatively, but I will say you get back what you give in this life so I suggest we all try to be just a tad kinder to others.  And if you can’t be kind don’t follow me, just stay out of my realm all together because I did not create it, I did not invite it, and I sure as heck don’t associate with it.  truly, MKR
