Weekend Reading.

Happy weekend! I’m taking a little bit of a break from the craziness of work as one of my best friends is visiting from Northern Ireland! It’s so nice to have her here for a few days. We are planning on seeing a little art, having some yummy dinners, and hopefully just… relaxing! The past few weeks have been really intense on the work front so I’m hoping to just relax and reset. No better excuse to do that than having one of your favorite friends for a visit! OH! I know we chatted a lot about podcasts but I’m so excited as I just bought tickets to Pod Save America’s tour – it isn’t til May but I can not wait! PS – I know someone will ask – my bag in the photo above is from Very Troubled Child… it’s the best!!!

My heart stopped when I saw this emerald green maxi dress. So dramatic and amazing.

The ten best movies of 2017 – have you seen them?

I thought Jenny did such an amazing job with her holiday magazine. Her photography is always stunning.

Pretty party flats.

What happened when one new mom took a vacation from her new baby.

My favorite giant tassels are on sale!

These New Years Resolutions are actually worth making.

The cut makes this $80 little black dress look way more expensive.

A great post about dating in your thirties.

Julia is inspiring  me to give baking homemade bread a try!

Festive party crackers!

I love Hitha’s Friday night routine.

It makes me sad to say it but puffer season is approaching. If you’re in need, this one is so cute – and the nipped in waist ensures you’ll still have a shape.

Kat looks stunning in red.

I loved Alicia’s chic holiday decor.

Probably need these understated unicorn slippers

I need to start doing this facial massage.

The prettiest party skirt!

Biggest congrats to Liz and Dave.

Really loved Jess’s post about what she’s learned in her thirties!

Love the colors of this oversized moto jacket.

Dying over Mackenzie’s honeymoon photos: part one, part two, part three, part four, part five!

Tempted to order matching Christmas pajamas for my whole family. They even make ’em for dogs.!

Loved this casual pink look on Blair.

This jewelled sweater is perfect for the holidays – when you are too lazy to put on a party dress. Just add heels and skinny black pants.

This detox bath sounds like heaven.

Pretty sure I need this metallic maxi dress.

I loved Garance’s photos from Morocco and am dying to go on one of her retreats!

Currently crushing on this cozy sweater – love the color and the easy funnel neck.

I loved Jess’s gifts for the coffee lover.

Okay I need this amazing rainbow dress…. Jenn looks fantastic!

OMG this is the perfect gift for the karaoke enthusiast in your life. I have a few of those!

    The detox bath on Goop does look and sound like heaven. I wish! I don’t even have a bathtub at home, haha.

    Have a great weekend! 🙂

    Yay for the Pod Save America tour! I’ve got less than 2 months until their show in LA… and I just saw the Lovett or Leave It is coming to my city a few weeks after I drive up to see them in LA. I did just say last week that I wasn’t hooked by the one episode of Lovett that I listened to… but I’m still contemplating buying tickets, lol.

    The only thing that would make the very understated slippers better would be if they were cat unicorns, ha, ha!
