For the past couple of months, I’ve been sharing my weekly links on Sundays (for the most part.) If you’re quick, you’ll notice that a) it’s not Sunday, and b) the title for these has changed. Nonetheless, here are some favorite reads and posts from this past week! I especially love the very last one from Sarah Bessey. I just keep thinking about it, so definitely don’t skip that one.

I love this makeup look. Fresh, clean, simple. Also, how stunning is Kate Bryan? Love her.

Are you a hummingbird or a buzzard? I know that sounds like a strange question, but just go with it.

I just started this book, Simply Tuesday, by Emily Freeman. It’s an invitation to slow down and see the extraordinary in the ordinary. Really liking it so far.

Who knew clogs could be this cute? Are clogs back? Is this a thing? So many questions.

How many of our stories do we censor so we don’t make others uncomfortable, or to make ourselves feel better? This is my top read for the week – don’t miss it!

I look forward to putting together my favorite finds and reads each week for you, since it’s basically an excuse to read all of my favorite blogs and talk about them. Really, I could do that all day every day. I’m not sure what’s going on this week, but I’m coming up a little empty-handed. Some weeks there is just less content that I think “Ooh! I want to share that!” and I never want to link up to something that I’m not excited about. So until next week, here are some of my favorite Instagram feeds to follow:

Mama to five, she takes Sunday pictures with her entire crew. I also just like to hear some of her views on parenting and letting them be little. 

{ jess connolly } 
I mentioned her in a previous favorites post, but really – she is so inspiring and has a heart for women growing closer to God. I am SO excited to hear her speak at Allume conference next month!

{ the nester } 
Myquillyn is one of my favorite home design experts. She is all about making the most of what you have, and her motto is “it doesn’t have to be perfect to be beautiful” – YES.

I read her book Bloom when it first came out and have been following her social media ever since. She is an artist of words and her three littles are as cute as they come. 

{ the gray gang }
She is a mom I admire – so different from me in a lot of ways, but I think we have the same heartbeat when it comes to our children. A really gifted writer. 

{ meg legs }
I just love her style. There are a couple of her outfits I would wear every.single.day, no shame.  

{ kelli m campbell } 
She gives me a daily dose of Hawaii, where she lives – be jealous. 

{ angie smith }
She’s wordy but that’s one of the things I like most about her. She puts into words what I cannot. 

And just because, here’s this face, grabbed from my own instagram:
