Do Good
It’s warm and sunny and all you want to do is be outside…so why not volunteer in the park? The National Park Service has so many opportunities for volunteering in the National Park near you that you really have no excuse! In fact, they even have opportunties for one time gigs or an internship.
Check out the National Parks Service Volunteer Directory to search for a volunteer opportunity near you.
On Something Good
- It’s getting a little too hot and humid in DC. It’s making me miss being able to wear my jean jacket.
- There’s a new Work Appropriate for Who interview up!
- My list of summer essentials may be a little weird, but hopefully you’ll forgive me.
- Need a go-to side dish for your next BBQ? Why not try this fun twist on Mac and Cheese?
Something Good to Read
The Heir by Kiera Cass (The entire series is basically like what would happen if the Hunger Games and the Bachelor had a baby. I kid you not.)
Go Shopping
- My new on-the-go wedges (stay on the lookout for a giveaway with them coming up soon :D)
- Big Nordstrom sale time! 40% off Summer Clearance (and these prices are good!)
- How many LWDs are too many?
- I ran into Loft to try on a few things and came out with this dress! Also, everything is 40% off there right now, so get shopping!
- With all of the mini downpours that keep happening in DC, I think I need to get these shoes asap.
- I’m such a sucker for a good striped skirt. Especially a-line stripe skirts.
- These shorts from Gap arrived in the mail and they’ve become a weekend staple.
- Finally gave in and ordered this dress from Nordstrom. I hope it works out!
- Speaking of cute dresses…should I get this one? It has polka dots AND pockets!
- In other obsessions, this wrap got marked down. Get it, I promise you won’t regret it even though its 1000000 degrees outside and you can’t even think about sweaters. Trust me, you’ll thank me when your office cranks the AC.
- If you’re going to do any online shopping, why haven’t you signed up for Ebates and started earning your cash back yet?
Around the internet
- This girl read the Grey so you don’t have to (just read her article!). My favorite quote from her article? “I got so bored of Anastasia’s lack of appetite that I have gone and bought a Snickers. If I can’t fit into my wedding dress next month, it will be Sexy Bambi’s bloody fault.”
- Christy Turlington’s response to tabloids about going back to school is the best
- Why is little kids dancing so adorable? Almost as adorable as Pharrell getting upstaged.
- Why couldn’t I do a flashmob at graduation? Oh right, because they wouldn’t have given any of us our diplomas then (don’t ask).
- If there’s no Anne Hathaway in this, it’s not worth it.
- This movie was what introduced me to the awesomeness that is Anna Kendrick and now they’re making a sequel!
- Has blogging actually changed or have our expectations changed?
- These weren’t the blogging tips I expected, but they’re really really good!
- 11 Things Smart People Won’t Say – published on LinkedIn, but good for life in general
