Welcome back to another Friday of weekend reads!  Hope you all have some fun Memorial Day plans ahead.  I’m actually headed down to Austin today for my college roommate’s bachelorette party.  It’s my first time in Austin, so I’m excited to check it out.  Lots of great links to share today and TONS of Memorial Day Sales.

And since this weekend is the unofficial kickoff to summer, what’s more summer-y than a rosé cocktail…try this fruity rosé ice cube cocktail at all your Memorial Day parties!  It’s a great cocktail option that you make ahead.

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge are very pleased to share some new photographs of their family as they visited the RHS Back to Nature Garden at the #ChelseaFlowerShow on Sunday afternoon. The photographs were taken by @mattporteous. The #RHSChelsea Back to Nature Garden, designed by The Duchess and award-winning landscape architects Andrée Davies and Adam White of Davies White Landscape Architects, is a woodland setting for families and communities to come together and connect with nature. Her Royal Highness is a strong advocate for the proven benefits the outdoors has on physical and mental health, and the positive impact that nature and the environment can have on childhood development in particular. Over the past months, Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis have helped The Duchess gather moss, leaves and twigs to help decorate @The_RHS Back to Nature Garden. Hazel sticks collected by the family were also used to make the garden’s den. The Duchess told Monty Don in an interview for the BBC: “I really feel that nature and being interactive outdoors has huge benefits on our physical and mental wellbeing, particularly for young children. I really hope that this woodland that we have created really inspires families, kids and communities to get outside, enjoy nature and the outdoors, and spend quality time together.”

Love palm print?  Check out this roundup of my favorite palm print pieces, many of which are under $50.

This sounds like the beach read we all need.

Very intrigued by the idea of a sweet potato toast.

This is sad, because I always roll my clothes in my suitcase, but according to this, it saves no room!

Best self-tanners of 2019…I’ve tried a lot of self tanners, and this one is my personal go-to.  I do also like the Lancome one they’ve included.

Love this piece on what every successful person knows, but nobody tells beginners.
