This week’s forecast has rain all week (bleh) so this week’s 5 Happy Things is more about things to do inside! When the week is rainy and dreary I find myself feeling more cooped up and like to have some things going on to look forward to. It’s St. Patrick’s Day this week and we’ll be celebrating next weekend, so I’m leaving all of the things I need to get done productively to the weekdays!

One thing that I especially love about my job is that every Monday morning we have a company wide breakfast & meeting to talk about what’s going on in each department and give updates. It’s a great way to start the week and has me feeling ready to tackle my long to do list!

1. Have you ever struggled to come up with a unique flower arrangement? A vase will usually do, but I love this post from Domino on easy flower arrangements.

2. I got lost on the interwebs last week and discovered one of the most beautiful and affordable places that I’ve ever seen in New York City down in my neighborhood. Can you believe this space?!

3. It must be spring on the brain, but I scooped up this floral midi dress this past weekend and I can’t wait for it to arrive. I know it’s early, but I can’t wait to pull out all of my dresses on a regular basis!

4. I’ve been snagging everything gingham that I could for the past few years and I’m so happy to see it popping up at even more stores. How adorable are these gingham flats?

5. You may have seen me rave about this new company Margaux in an old 5 Happy Things, but I finally grabbed a pair of their flats and I cannot wait for them to arrive! I had to say farewell to my three favorites at the end of last season because I had finally worn them out. I chose blush to start but have a feeling this will not be my last pair of Margaux’s!
