Friday Night Links

Now that the sun is out all the time (well, except for DC’s super rainy day yesterday), it’s time to lather up on the sunscreen. I’ll be going into more detail on Tuesday for National Sunscreen Day, BUT did you know today is Don’t Fry Day? In honor of today, do some good for yourself (the theme of Wednesday’s post!) and take some of these precautions to avoid frying in the sun: seek shade, wear SPF clothing (yes, it’s a thing),  and apply sunscreen thoroughly!

• If you’re going to be doing this much online shopping, then do yourself a favor and sign up for Ebates first? You’ll get cash back on all of your online purchases, so if you plan on doing some damage this weekend, this will make that a little easier to swallow. This isn’t  sponsored, I just love and use Ebates that much. (Though I do get a small kickback if you use my link to sign up :D)

• Want to try out Netflix for jewelry? Why not give Rocksbox a chance? They originally gave me a free trial, but I’ve enjoyed it so much that I’ve continued to pay for the service! Sign up using the code danabff114 for your first month free.

• Could a bracelet really defend against a sunburn?
• Sigh, I just want to be friends with Mindy Kaling.
