5 on Friday: Dry Rosé Cider, My Fav Sweater and More!

Happy FRIIIIIIDAYYYYYY y’all!!! I gotta say, and I never ever want to wish time away when I have a baby girl that changes every single day, but gah y’all I’m happy it’s Friday. TGIF. 
Luckily we have a relatively unplanned weekend ahead to spend time with our girl and get the last few big things we need to get done finished around the house to feel settled. So today I’m going to kick it off with a little Five on Friday, something I haven’t done in awhile and I’m so happy to bring it back.
{ONE}
A new offering from Candlefish! Y’all have heard me obsess over Candlefish in the past with this post and now they even have a partnership at Anthropologie. Plus, the ladies of Southern Charm are even fans. 
I joined fellow bloggers this week in downtown Charleston at their studio to make some candles, mingle and hear more about an exciting new offering coming soon! I can’t wait to share more, but for now I’ll leave you with this picture of these gorgeous friends!
Make sure to visit Charleston Shop Curator, Coastal Bride and Charleston Weekender who are with me above!
{TWO}
The sweater I’ll be wearing all season. I recently ordered this Free People sweater that is flowy, slightly open in the back with a mock collar and is everything I’ve been looking for and more. It’s hard to find a sweater that’s comfy, stylish and not heavy or itchy. This is the one y’all
{THREE}
Rosé Cider. Yep, you read that right, I found this Wolffer Dry Rosé Cider at Whole Foods this week and I’m pretty obsessed. It’s definitely sweeter, but the cute little bottles and the fun branding make it the perfect treat for my basic babes out there. 
{FOUR}
Always a good hair day. Not even gunna lie, I saw this photo that my amazing hair guru (stylist just didn’t feel right), Lex, texted me last night and I had to asked, “Is that MY hair?!”. Haha! Talk about a good hair day, so in love with my updated locks. It just feels so darn awesome to get your hair did, am I right?!
Photo cred: Lex, follow him on Instagram and visit him at Stox & Co if you’re in Charleston

{FIVE} 
Our new dining room table! If you follow me on Snapchat (name: ephilli) you know that we love to frequent the Celadon Sunday Flea and on our last trip we found this beauty. I loved how wide it is and it even has a built in leaf that pulls up through the middle when you maneuver the levers underneath.  
Still trying to decide on those barstools you saw here, now I need to decide on some dining chairs as well… any suggestions?
Linking up with A. Liz Adventures, Carolina Charm, Hello! Happiness and The Good Life.    
{SIX}
Surprise! Adding in a bonus item to this post because this popped up on my Timehop and how could I not share this adorable little fall baby. Absolutely mind-blowing what a difference a year makes! See all the photos in this post on Sully’s 6-month mini session with Allison Shumate.

  • What is it about a Christmas pageant that just warms a Mamas heart?! 🎄 #SullyLou knew every word to all the songs (English, French, and Spanish!), sang them enthusiastically, remembered the moves, and just beamed with joy from the stage. I’m so proud of her 😭. How is she becoming such a big girl so fast?! Speaking of big, she was the only girl on the back pew because she’s so tall. 🤷🏼‍♀️ I love you my Sully girl. I am so so so incredibly proud of you my mooks.
  • Run like the wind bullseye! Not the most IG worthy picture, although that is Kensington Palace in the background, hey Kate! 👋🏻 But I'm doing it y'all. Registered for the @cooperriverbridgerun which is arguably Charleston's biggest race of the year. Have I ever run a 10k? Nope. Have I ever run a 5k? Yes, and it was six years ago. 🤣Watch me work... 🏃🏼‍♀️🏃🏼‍♀️🏃🏼‍♀️
  • Throwback to one of the most Christmas-y places in London! Tonight we enjoyed our own little slice of Christmas with the Mount Pleasant parade (see Stories!) 🎄🎅 ☃️ We may not be spending our December abroad or in Hawaii this year, but gosh it sure does feel good to be home sweet home in Charleston!
  • Do you go to THERAPY? Why is that word so scary? 🚨 Why do we feel shame in saying we go? 👉🏻 Tonight in my Stories a bunch of strangers across the internet grouped together to share therapists they recommend in cities across the US and even in London. I feel like knowing who to go to is one of the hardest first steps, hopefully, we've helped you with that. 💗 👇🏻 Feel free to comment below, if you're comfortable, with any other therapist recommendations you'd like to share or tell us about your therapy experience!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Ok so why the photo of me in the Sahara Desert for a 5am camel ride sunrise? 🐪 Well, soon after this photo was taken, I walked into a therapist's office in London. Why? Secondary infertility. I wrote about this on the blog (link in profile), but I felt so, so broken y'all. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
All the travel we were doing was reminding me of all the joy, joy, joy down in my heart 😉 and I realized how this feeling of brokenness was dragging me down. And I didn't want it to turn into something bad. So off I went. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Over a year later and I've found my gal here in Charleston and I still go every month. 👍🏻 Even though I don't feel broken any longer. In fact, I feel optimistic and hopeful for our future adopted child. 👨‍👩‍👧‍👧 It's just good to talk it out y'all. To talk out everything occupying your brain space and keeping you up at night here or there. Not only that, but therapists have TOOLS. They're so equipped to teach you #allthethings you never even knew you needed to know!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
As we go into the holidays 🎄 which admit it you guys, we put so much pressure and tie so much meaning to.... I want you to consider therapy. A lot of insurance providers will help you cover the cost. It doesn't hurt to book an appointment and see if it's for you. And you might have to shop around for the right fit, but you'll find it. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
At the end of the day, I believe that if we're all more mentally stable humans, we'll all contribute to a better, kinder world. 🌎
  • One thing I never got tired of during 14 weeks of guests visiting us in London (and most all of them staying with us in our 500 sq ft flat with 1 bathroom 😬)... was the afternoon tea!!! ☕️ Gah I just loved it. All my fancy tea party dreams from my childhood got to come true over and over! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Don’t miss it when you visit the UK! 🇬🇧 This was one of my favorites and top recommendations, The Park Room at @grosvenorhouselondon. Check on @opentable for the special reservation where a glass of bubbly 🥂 is included with your tea! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
PS: Hit that little bookmark to save this post for later so you remember where to go when visiting London! 💂🏼‍♂️
  • Entrepreneur-ing and mom-ing like a boss this week y'all. I'll explain more soon. 😉 Have you gotten your ticket yet to my business @pinckneypalm's Master Your Social? 🎟 Seriously, get on it, I think I'm only going to sell 5️⃣ more seats and then close the program. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
If you're not in the know, MYS is my 6-week online social media coaching program, No, this is NOT an e-course or webinar. 🙅🏼‍♀️ This is me actually live teaching you a new topic each week, giving you the steps and resources to implement what we talk about, and then holding you accountable. Not to mention, throwing some epic online dance parties 💃🏼💃🏼 and having you join in community with other entrepreneurs. We start January 21st... wouldn't it be awesome to go into 2020 with a social media strategy and knowledge of all the tips and tricks?!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So GO!!! Get your ticket via the link in my profile right now @erinn.phillips or at pinckneypalm.com/shop. 🌴 I seriously do a happy dance when I see your purchase come through. THANK YOU for supporting my small business!!! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Also, friends, we made up a cute gift card if you want to receive Master Your Social for Christmas 🎁 or if you want to gift it to someone else! 👉🏻 DM me with any questions on Master Your Social!

  • Snapped in my element. Hunting for gems in the flea markets abroad. 🌏 The first deals I looked for on Cyber Monday? Flight deals! Go search @skyscanner, I even found NYC to London for less than $300 a person. Considering we have a baby on the way and no earthly idea when that baby gets here I didn't hit purchase but dang I wanted to. Y'all do it for me! ✈️
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Psst... there may or may be a small batch of goodies coming to @theshopabroad just in time for you to snag Christmas gifts that are one of a kind (this time from German Christmas markets) 🇩🇪🎄🎁
  • December in Charleston means sandals and iced tea. ❄️ Ryan and I realized this past weekend that between his work travel and mine, plus family trips, we’ll cover 2 countries outside of the US and 3 states in addition to holiday travel throughout South Carolina in the month of December. 😬 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Weirdly, I’m not stressed about it. I’m just so excited to share with y’all what some of this travel is for (not a baby unfortunately, yet!) and to see so many good friends and family! 🎉
  • Happy Thanksgiving from The Phillips Family! Here’s our little Instagram vs. reality for ya. 🤪 I hope you all have a day filled with gratitude, love, and full bellies, surrounded by the people you love most. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Ten years ago on this holiday my father-in-law passed away, so it’s always one that is hard but also one where we get to remember Bob. I only spent time with him a handful of times but the way he has shaped his children and how much he means to Ryan is something I cherish. Gosh am I grateful that we were chosen to witness his greatness for the short time God lent him to us on this earth. 💗 I’m sending prayers to those of you who may also be dealing with hard things on Thanksgiving. You are loved and thought of today, friend. Have a wonderful Thanksgiving 🦃
