Weekend Reading.

Happy (long!) weekend, friends! I hope you guys are staying off of your laptops and doing something fun to soak up the last few days of summer! I’m actually sticking around city for the weekend… but trying to make it a bit of a staycation of it! I’m still feeling a little under the weather and need to just really rest and get back to 100% for fashion week! I laid pretty low this week… with the exception of a few low key birthday celebrations and a dinner at Barneys to celebrate Maiyet’s new fragrance (because um, you don’t say know to eating dinner at Barneys!) Lots of links for you this week… enjoy! PS – the photo above is from the lookbook for my sister’s new fabric by the yard. So good.

The cutest top ever (stripes + leather sleeves!) and it’s half off!

Did you guys see the Gone Girl Trailer? I’m so excited.

The prettiest heels… I’d pair them with cuffed denim.

I want to go on all of the trips.

Did you see that Barbie is now a fashion blogger? Hilarious.

Love this pre-layered sweater… would be so great with skinny pants or a flirty mini skirt.

Have you downloaded the new hyperlapse app? It sounds pretty cool.
