Weekend Reading Week 28

Summer recipes, skincare, and starting over at any age

Happy Sunday! This is coming a little later than usual. I hope you had a great weekend. On Sunday morning, I hosted a chat at Slant of Light Books in Chicago. It was a great way to chat about Paris, spark conversation, and allow people to preorder Paris Every Day in person.

We had croissants from La Fournette.

Sunday Links I Love

Weekend Reading is up on the blog.

Some of my favorites include:

The hotel was named the best in France. It is on my short list and located in Provence.

How Izipizi built a Warby Parker competitor that was more affordable.

You can start over at any age. I am looking forward to reading Bobbi Brown’s new book.

Dogs on Vacation

A few favorite things from this week:

I picked up new sunglasses at Warby Parker. Yes, I have bought a few new pairs lately, also in France at Izipizi. Warby Parker said it best today when I was in the store: Sunglasses are like sunscreen for your eyes. Boom! Doesn’t that make you think again when you are walking out the door? Don’t forget your sunscreen and sunglasses.

These eye shadow sticks are a favorite from Laura Mercier and glide on so well. The application is so quick and easy.

My friend Abby came over this week, and we are working on a few updates for the home. She is an incredible interior designer, and I hired her. (You can too!) We came up with some fun ideas, and I am looking to frame a few new pieces for a gallery wall. Framebridge is my go-to framer.

Cadence capsules and parcels make travel so much easier for all my toiletries while traveling. Plus, they are TSA-friendly!

These Stuart Weitzman sandals caught my eye and are on sale. They have so many great sandals on sale and keep adding to this page.

My friend Colleen, who lives in Texas, shared this GoFundMe for a family who lost their home during the floods. I wanted to share it with you if you have the ability and would like to donate. Thank you!
