Weekend Links 02.17.18

Happy Saturday! Dave and have already visited three new-to-us restaurants/bars since the weekend kicked off at 5 p.m. on Friday. I think we need to slow our roll unless we want to spend all of next week eating salad and exercising! We’re planning to spend a better part of the weekend making headway on our London itinerary since our early April trip will be here before we know it! What’s on your weekend agenda?

Weekend Links:

  • Sidestep mundane small talk with these five questions.
  • The official portraits of the Obamas were unveiled this week and they’re incredible.
  • And, here’s the story of the Milly dress Michelle Obama is wearing her portrait.
  • I love these earrings for spring and summer. The cobalt blue is gorgeous, but the white would go with everything.
  • The rise and fall of the water bed.
  • The best street style looks from New York Fashion Week. (Consider it your motivation to snag a statement coat.)
  • I’m all about the aviation cocktail lately.
  • Jade green appetizer plates are just the thing to brighten up your serveware for spring.

Finds Under $50:

  • I just ordered these salt and pepper shakers. The marble and brass is so pretty!
  • This asymmetrical dress looks like a sexy option for a date night.
  • A cute twill jacket.
  • Use code HAPPY to take 40% off of these floral slide loafers.
  • An oversize pink sweater is the winter-to-spring transitional item your closet needs.
  • Eye-catching floral hoops.

Earlier This Week:

  • Comfy loungewear from Garnet Hill.
  • Style steals under $50 and under $100.
  • What fits inside the small Gucci Marmont handbag?
  • Finally, a pair of sneakers I love! (Get them here.)

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.
