The Weekend Guide

October 30, 2015 by jessica 9 Comments

LAUGH
Doctored images of world leaders rocking man buns has pretty much made my week. There’s more here!

MAKE
Create a DIY pom pom table runner in time for Thanksgiving. Go bright like Leah did or opt for a subtle color combination. Then, shop Anthropologie’s sale section for additional table accessories. There’s an extra 30% off sale items right now with code XTRAXTRA. I’m loving this serving platter and these wine glasses.

KNOW
Before you binge on the candy you “bought for trick-or-treaters,” read these fun facts about Halloween favorites.

SHOP
J.Crew has a great promotion right now. Take $25 off orders of $125+, $75 off orders of $250+ or $175 off orders of $500+. I’ve got my eye on a new bright coat for winter and leopard flats.

SIP
This is undoubtedly the best link I’ve ever come across: pineapple tumblers. The large version with a straw is $99, but there are smaller pineapple tumblers and pairs of shot glasses for $29. I’m totally ordering something today.

ADOPT
Photographer Casey Christopher is on a mission to help black cats get adopted.

FIVE UNDER $55
EARLIER THIS WEEK
Five style tips.
This week’s most coveted.

Went mod in a ’60s-inspired outfit.
Visited an iconic Madison bar that had an Instagrammable face lift.

Our guest room wasn’t a design priority until la Our guest room wasn’t a design priority until late last year when we finally bought a bed, mattress, and a set of sheets. We used some of our own extra bedding (tucking in the generous overhang of our king blankets under the queen-sized mattress) and old bedside lamps from our bedroom: functional, but not quite the charming space I’d envisioned.
 
That started to change when I purchased the Popcorn Grid Coverlet from Schoolhouse — an item I’d been eyeing for years — plus some graphic floral pillows. Then came a bright blue round cushion and the sweetest Teig lamp, both generously gifted by Schoolhouse, and the room finally started to come together. You can shop my picks here: https://liketk.it/5f322

Growing up in northern Wisconsin, lilacs always hi Growing up in northern Wisconsin, lilacs always hit peak bloom right around my birthday on May 30. My mom would fill a large crystal vase with fresh-cut stems, and their scent would waft through the house. 

Now that I live a few hours south and lilac season wraps up earlier, the blooms actually mark the start of my birthday month.

Snapshots from the past week: • Spent quality t Snapshots from the past week:

• Spent quality time with my favorite cat

• Biked for Pacificos, chips and quac, and tacos at @bandit.tacos 

• Loved how the rain collected on the Lady’s Mantle I planted last year

• Dipped my toes (quite literally) into this year’s mesh shoe trend

• Snapped a lot of Lily content

• Drove home with a new lilac in the passenger seat
Finishing our guest room has been a focus of ours Finishing our guest room has been a focus of ours this year, and the cute Teig Lamp from Schoolhouse is such a charming addition to the space. It’s named for the German word for “dough,” which is perfect for its soft, petite shape.

(The lamp and circle pillow were gifted. I purchased the other items.)

I’m challenging myself to get through a backlog I’m challenging myself to get through a backlog of travel photos before we book our next trip. First up, photos of the gothic York Minster. I’m not religious in the slightest but I can’t resist stunning architecture and the opportunity to climb hundreds of cathedral stairs for a city view. This one only had a single rest stop about halfway up the flight of 275 steps for a closeup view of the flying buttresses — and a waiver you had to sign before your ascent to promise you’re healthy enough to make it.
