Friday Finds No. 22

Happy Friday friends! I have a very exciting couple weeks coming up, including a trip to Florida and a long weekend in my favorite city, so I was extra excited for the arrival of this Friday! With the weather here in New England lately, a week in Florida won't feel all that different from home, but I am still so excited for some much needed R&R and family time. It is the first vacation my family has taken together in quite a while, so I am thrilled to be spending a week in a beautiful place with my favorite people. Be sure to follow along over on Instagram - I'll be taking you along for the ride!

And now, for my finds from the week.. enjoy!

Don't Regret Your Twenties // I always love when I stumble across these. There is a multitude of similarly written articles talking about a similar theme of not letting your twenties go to waste. They're always an easy read and leave me feeling reinvigorated to make the absolute most of your twenties, and honestly of your life.

Talking Ambition with Reese Witherspoon // This article is everything. I read it, and then read it again, and I think again. It is that good and it is that inspiring. So much so that I think I want to get a hard copy of it and frame it on my wall. The message that Reese so perfectly shares is one that every woman should hear - and honestly guys too. Her words are motivational and so inspiring.

GG Fall Bucket List // I love a good seasonal bucket list and this one is no exception. It's got all the festive and fun fall to-dos and more! Checks it out and be sure to make your own all bucket list - you can't check out mine here!

Blue & White Stripes for Fall

Fall Favorites: Velvet

Well we officially made it to fall, and in my opinion that means goodbye to any an all summertime clothing! I've been ready for weeks to transition my wardrobe over to fall and now I'm going for it. There are styles, colors, and fabrics that are often fall staples and that year after year make a comeback, and then there are those more trendy styles. I am loving the fall trends of 2017, so much so that I decided to make a little mini-series here on Faith & Fancy to highlight them. Over the next few weeks, I'll be rounding up some of my favorites from each trend to share with you all. First up, velvet!

Velvet is such a beautiful and luxe fabric that I have always loved incorporating into my wardrobe here and there. If I'm being honest, I often associate it more with Christmas and New Years, but I am thrilled to be seeing it pop up into the scene a little bit sooner! When done the right way it is elegant, feminine and adds just the right amount of depth to any outfit. Although it is trending right now, it is by no means a 'trendy' fabric, and I think it is a style that everyone can get on board with!

Are you incorporating velvet into you fall style this year? If so, I'd love to hear how! Leave a message in the comments below and stayed tuned to see which trend for fall I'm highlighting next.
