Rattan circle bag and more from the wicker trend on waitingonmartha.com

I don’t know about you, but I’m seeing wicker shoulder bags everywhere, and I can’t stop thinking scoring the perfect rattan circle bag these days.  This season is all about the natural texture of raffia, sea grass, wicker and fringe, and I couldn’t be more in love with the trend. 

So if you’re eyeing a rattan circle bag like I am, you’ll love this one I found on Etsy.  And can we talk about how cute and quirky this little monkey wicker tote is?!  There’s more where that came from too; this hen wicker bag and this fruit wicker basket are pretty major statement pieces that give a nod to summer’s wicker obsession.  Find the details on all of the rest of the products below!  Cheers, Kat

Sheet pan shrimp recipe with caramelized citrus, carrots, onions and broccolini recipe on Waiting on Martha
Sheet pan shrimp recipe with caramelized citrus, carrots, onions and broccolini | Waiting on Martha

Today’s sheet pan shrimp recipe is light, vibrant, fresh, and most importantly easy!  It’s what I like to consider as the perfect meal for summer entertaining because it really is beyond simple to make, and absolutely stunning when served. 

Thanks to the insane popularity of our sheet pan salmon recipe, I was inspired to take another swing at the simple one-sheet-pan method.  This time with my favorite seafood shrimp, glazed in a citrus teriyaki with sweet and tender carrots, red onions and broccolini all atop a bed of vibrant citrus.  

For this sheet pan shrimp recipe the citrus is really the secret to this dish’s success.  It caramelizes beautifully in the oven, giving everything on the sheet pan a wonderful flavor and layer of natural sugar crystallization. Here I used blood oranges, oranges, limes, and grapefruit.  But the beauty of citrus fruits is that they all work together so well, so feel free to use whatever your heart desires on your sheet pan!

And another plus with using citrus: it allows easier cleanup because it prevents sticking.  You’ll still want to spray the pan, even if it’s a nonstick version, but you won’t need parchment paper.  

When trying this sheet pan shrimp recipe at home, remember that shrimp cook fast.  I actually roasted my carrots and onions first over the citrus for about 10-15 minutes on the sheet pan before adding the shrimp and broccolini.  Keep this in mind if you also prefer your carrots and onions to be tender and caramelized, though you can also cook the entire sheet pan with everything at the same time if preferred on the crunchy side. 

All in all, this dish can easily be made in under 30 minutes if you don’t personally deveining the shrimp. That step does take some time; I believe in doing it yourself because it’ll be done more thoroughly, but you can absolutely get them deveined at the seafood counter at the store too.  At least the lovelies at Whole Foods always devein when asked.

So voila, friends!  This sheet pan shrimp recipe is super simple, super impressive and absolutely delectable for a night entertaining al fresco.  Enjoy!  Truly, MKR

If you were following along last week on Instagram, I was enjoying out-of-office mode in all its glory on charming St. Simons Island.  The trip was immensely rejuvenating, and probably one of my favorite vacations to date.  One of my favorite looks from the trip?  A comfortable, easy-breezy dress that easily doubled as a coverup with quite possibly the best slides ever and some of my favorite warm-weather accessories.  

This dress I speak of is by Pink Chicken and one I picked up at Ann Mashburn in the A.  It’s seriously so comfy and effortless. And what’s better than a comfortable and easy dress that brings you from the beach to dinner in style?!  I wore it a handful of different ways on the trip: as a beach cover up, an easy happy hour get-up, and with a pair of white jeans at night.  I plan to wear it like this as pictured all summer long, and even dressing it up more with my hair pulled back in a low, tight bun, with big earrings and heels!  

I paired these Sigerson Morrison crossover suede mules with the dress…they might be the best heeled slides I’ve ever bought.  After living in them on this trip, I’m contemplating buying them in nude too. They’re incredibly versatile; throw them on with jeans and dresses alike for a polished, yet easy-going look. 

To tie it all together, I wore my favorite gold bangles from the shoppe that you can wear in the pool and to the beach, my current go-to panama hat and sunnies, and my white leather fringe bag—available in black on major sale here. 

P.S.  I’ve included similar options to get the look in the scrolling widget below!  xo
