happy weekend! I am having a party today! Yesterday was my 38th birthday and I definitely celebrated in style. I got a blowout and a massage, and did a night staycation at The Carlyle – so nice!!! (Disclosure – did a shoot with them last year and was paid with a night’s stay – have been saving this!!!) Whatever you’re up to, I hope it’s great – enjoy the weekend… and these links, there quite a few this week!

Could not agree more with these thoughts on sleeping with a sleep mask!
I got this stripe sweater in the mail this week and couldn’t love it more. So cozy! (Size up if you have a long torso; it’s a little cropped!)

Happy Birthday Gorgeous! Can’t wait to meet you next Wednesday! Fun round up. Kind of into the cat shower caddy. I love Unbelievable , such a great interview.
Thanks Cy! Excited to meet you!!!!
First, happy belated birthday!
I’ve been using the Dove aluminum free deodorant for at least four months now. I like it better than the other aluminum free/natural options I’ve tried. The smell is lovely, however, be ready to also be sticky. Regardless, I’ll likely stay with them as long as they keep making it.
Thank you so much – and great to know!
