The WeekENDer | 5.02.2025

Happy May! Don’t you just love May? The weather is finally nice, everything is vibrant green and fragrant, and Memorial Day Weekend is calling to us! I’ve been inspired to add in some coastal, summery touches to our home lately. It’s been so nice to have the windows open all day long.

I’ve been contemplating some landscaping I want to add in this year. Since we are still working on the interiors here, we haven’t focused a ton on the landscaping.

Each year, I like to add in a little something. I’m thinking about adding in some Japanese holly along our front walkway. They look like boxwoods, but you don’t have to worry about boxwood blight which has become an issue here in Connecticut.

Also, we have some areas we want to add some climbing roses and more hydrangeas. My endless summer hydrangeas erupted last year, and that was a delight to see.

Other than that, I’m just occupied with work and my family, which always starts to get busier with the nice weather and our son’s sports season starting up again.

Here’s what caught my eye this week…

this coastal cardigan…

I found my new favorite coastal cardigan…This fisherman core sweater cardigan is a great layering piece for the seaside lover. Use code: KristyNE for 20% off your purchase for a limited time.

These always sell out fast, so you can see the whole collection for all the styles. I’ll update you on restocks too on IG.

these cabana chairs…

Our new cabana chairs have been so nice to pop on the lawn and bring to the beach. This style is incredibly comfortable and classic. You can customize the outdoor fabric on these, and they are offered at a great price point. Use code: KRISTY50 to save $50 off your order of 199+.

this market tote…

Instant love! This market tote is a great size to take to the farmer’s market. Also, I am going to love using this one on our summer travels. It’s another find that has that coastal New England vibe.
