Weekend Reading

Weekend Reading 09.08.17

Happy Friday! I’m so excited for the weekend. In part because I have this blouse on its way to me today, but also because I’m looking forward to fall-like temperatures. Few things are better than making a hearty meal when it’s chilly outside! We don’t have any plans other than tinkering with a few house projects and squeezing in bike rides, but something always comes up! What are you up to?

Weekend Reading:

  • Why a short work week makes it difficult to remember what day it is.
  • ‘Tis the season of pumpkin-flavored everything. I typically get excited about the return of the #PSL, only to be disgusted by how sweet it is and ditch my latte halfway through! That said, I’m all about pumpkin for other things like these scones with cinnamon butter.
  • Jenny Bird’s latest release is topping my wish list.
  • A “State of the Blog” address over at Design*Sponge explores how blogging is changing.
  • Start planning a trip to see the fall colors! Evidently this year’s foliage is going to be even more stunning than usual.
  • This long-sleeve dress is lovely for fall, and the color is perfectly retro. At $59 with free returns, it’s worth a try!
  • Equifax was hacked and they’re completely dropping the ball in the aftermath. Keep an eye on your transactions and credit report.
  • Just because you weren’t invited to any Fashion Week shows doesn’t mean you can’t partake in the festivities! Here’s a list of Fashion Week events that are open to everyone.
  • A surprising insight into L’Oréal’s past.
  • I just bought these and they are perfect.

Five Under $50:

  • Dainty flowers and little bows make for one pretty blouse.
  • Oversize architectural earrings.
  • A striped pajama set that’s perfect for lazy Sunday mornings.
  • I can’t get enough stripes, especially when there’s a sweater with a little ruffle detail at the sleeve.
  • A coffee table book that’s equal parts amazing and bizarre.

Earlier This Week:

  • A snapshot from our Labor Day adventure.
  • This week’s most coveted. I’ve got my eye on that mirror for our bedroom.
  • Sweater weather is my favorite, especially when it’s still warm enough to wear my new denim mini skirt.
  • Sharing our living room plans. (I’m hopeful that wallpaper is as amazing in person as it looks online!)

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.

Visiting York earlier this month put us in the Hal Visiting York earlier this month put us in the Halloween spirit. While it claims to be the most haunted place in Europe and is dubbed the city of a thousand ghosts, we only encountered the wire-mesh sculptures of Ghosts in the Gardens (@the_york_bid) and the family of souvenir ghosts I brought home from @yorkghostmerchants.
