Five Things Friday #1

For some reason I feel like I’ve done a Five Things Friday post before but going through my archives, it looks like I haven’t! So here’s my first! Here are five things that I’ve been loving this week.*

1. Myrtle Beach

Um, I had so much fun on vacation! It was nice taking a blogging break and not thinking about curating blog content. Anyways, it was so nice taking some time for myself and literally having nothing planned other than showing up at the airport. The beach was beautiful, the tree lined highways were beautiful, and the puppies were adorable.

Bye! ? Hopefully going somewhere warm with a beach ☀

2. Joe Fresh

OMG, I am obsessed with my Joe Fresh swimsuits. I picked up 4 pieces (2 sets) from Joe Fresh before heading out because my only other swimsuit was what I used to crosstrain in when swimming so it was more functional than pretty. Anyways, Joe Fresh, the swimsuits were so reasonably priced. Each piece was between $20-25 dollars compared to swimsuit shops that tend to run around $50+ (Um, this is why we need Target to come back to Canada).

Running away from responsibilities like ???? ???? How are you getting your Monday sweat on?

The plan was to wake up and go run before hitting the beach but that totally didn’t happen ? How are you spending your Sunday? #CarmyTravels #VisitMyrtleBeach

3. Trackster Woven Jacket from New Balance

I pretty much spent the week living in my New Balance Trackster Woven Jacket (disclaimer: I was sent this from Sport Chek as a gift). It was light enough to carry around and it was so comfortable. It was perfect for the breezy evenings at Myrtle Beach. Also, I love the polka dots on the back, it is beyond cute. The zippered pocket meant that I could go without my purse for a few outings.

Forward march to breakfast! #CarmyTravels #VisitMyrtleBeach

4. Sweet Tea

What is it about American sweet tea that makes it sooooo delicious?! Every time I cross the border, I always drink my body weight in sweet tea and this time was no different.
