Weekend Reading.

Happy weekend, friends! The weather forecast is cloudy and rainy but I’m reallllly hoping that things turn around as allllll I want is to go to the park and read! This week was a busy one. I got back to New York on Sunday and have been struggling to get all my work done as my mom visited Weds-Fri. My sister Becca opened her new store (at 175 Mott Street… go!), we (finally!) watched The Shape of Water (really good movie… kind of a creepy fairy tale!), and we had a fun dinner on Thursday night at Lafayette (an oldie but a goodie, will always be one of my favorite New York restaurants). Here are this week’s links.. enjoy! xo

How self aware are you actually?

My favorite swingy blouse (I wear the black one all the time) now comes in pink!

Such a cute (and affordable!) outfit on Anna.

Emily Weiss’s pre-going out routine. (Also have you tried the new Glossier mascara?)

Wishing that Rebecca Taylor would stop making such cute blouses. I want them all, especially this one.

Mmmm, tacos.

These green suede mules are so fun!

I’m totally going to try and make Julia’s turmeric latte. Yum.

Loved this lace dress on Jenn.

I’m newly obsessed with this highlighting wand – basically, Charlotte Tilbury is taking all my money this season – this is my last step (after Flawless Filter, bronzer, etc).

The best way to review natural deodorants.

Obsessed with this sweet button front dress!

How to fake a blowout.

I loved Jacey’s skincare tips for your thirties.

The mixed prints on this blouse are so unique (and expensive looking).

My kind of workout. (LOL)

The best slouchy tee (size down).

How to practice self-care at the office.

Loved reading Victoria’s “Day in the Life.” She’s inspired me to write one of my own… it’ll go up in the next week or two!

I just got this bright red-orange all natural lipstick pencil and really love it so far.

Really loved how Blair played with proportions in this outfit!

Such a sweet LBD.

How to make grocery store flowers look chic.

The case for wearing things again and again – I really related to this post from Krystal!

This off the shoulder midi dress is pretty, flattering, and a great price.

Need a new TV show to binge-watch? Read this!

Such a great linen blazer; at such a great price.

It’s okay Hitha… I’m basic too. (And it shouldn’t be an insult!)

A reader sent me this strawberry froyo recipe and it sounds SO good!

The Club Monaco new arrivals are sooooo good. I went in to look for a Mother’s Day gift for my mom and instead found dresses I want for me. I didn’t buy them but love this emerald green one and this red + white striped one.

Want to be successful? Start before you’re ready.

Wow – I love the colors in this jumpsuit!!!

I loved Lisa’s thoughts on the art of sharing.

The prettiest summer accessories.

Oh dear – these rattan slides are amazing and would match my bag.

Ahhhhh these DIY baths sound amazing – I’m definitely bookmarking this!

Such a pretty sundress.

EVERYTHING about sunscreen.

This striped romper is so, so cute.

    I love the Emily Weiss article. It was exciting to see her face in ITG again; I remember poring over her personal Top Shelf interviews a few years ago (worth a read if you feel like going into ITG archives)
    Have a wonderful Saturday,
