  1. I’m headed to Palm Springs this weekend for a bachelorette party. I’m loving these fun etsy finds: Friends Themed Banner, Bride + Crew fanny packs, and this super fun “Oh Shit Kit” that is customizable.

  2. I have a few new favorite instagram hashtags that I’ve been following lately. I love #828isgreat (the area code of my hometown) and #sunrises_and_sunsets (constantly inspiring me to travel).
  3. I’ve been enjoying a new author, Elin Hilderbrand. She lives on Nantucket and most of her books are set there. I’m missing the east coast and Cape Cod like crazy after listening to her books on my commute.
  4. I had a lot of fun watching the news surrounding Moviepass (Helios and Matheson – HMNY) stock this week. I have not been investing very long so it was interesting to see so many changes in just a couple of days. I love Robinhood as a stock trading app because it is free and very user friendly!

  1. Greatly enjoyed going down this nostalgia rabbit hole. Any other computer nerds out there enthralled with this “teaching” technique??

  2. While I definitely don’t think there are rules for where finances should be based on any given age (I think it’s much more based on current situation, past history, future goals, etc.), I do like doing a little compare and contrast with my current situation anytime I happen upon such a list. Budgets Are Sexy had a good one this week!
  3. My husband and I are leaving for a week in Austria and Germany next week and I’m pumped! We’ll be visiting Innsbruck [1], [2], [3], [4], Vienna [1], [2], [3], [4], [5], and Berlin [1], [2], [3], [4], [5], each for a few days. As you can see, I have a bunch of blog posts bookmarked to make sure we don’t miss anything!
  4. We got a Leesa mattress earlier this week as a wedding gift and so far I’m really liking it. My husband was (still is??) a little apprehensive about an internet-ordered mattress, but we’re giving it the trial length to really decide if it stays.

  1. Stella, I absolutely love Motley Fool and Laura, can’t wait to hear more about your trip! What a beautiful area of the world to visit. Don’t forget to tell us about the food, lol! And I’d love to hear more about that mattress after you’ve trialed it for awhile!
