Blissful Sunday, everybody. Final weekend was devastating, as so many appear to be. Whereas we spent the week preparing for our massive break (and ensuring you all nonetheless had been getting enjoyable content material), it was exhausting for us to not really feel the burden. If something, actually maintain your family members tight, but additionally, we so desperately want gun reform. It feels past merciless that nothing has modified within the US, and on prime of precise reform, we’d like our leaders to advertise true anti-discrimination in all kinds and for all folks, particularly our marginalized communities and neighbors. Hate solely ever begets hate. It’s the one manner ahead with any sense of security and hope. The least we will all do is to unfold as a lot love and group as we will proper now. Alright, listed here are our hyperlinks for this week.
This week’s home tour is one we’re certain you’ve seen, however given its magnificence and the designer is a favourite of ours, Heidi Caillier, we expect it deserves to be celebrated extra! This mountain house owned by Kendall Jenner is stuffed with sample, coloration, deep wooden tones, and a whole lot of soul. Test it out right here!
From Emily: Two MUST-WATCH reveals to binge. I do know you’re all in the midst of vacation motion pictures (Elliot and I are barreling via the Christmas swap presently), however Brian and I additionally binged a few grown-up reveals. Y’all, for those who didn’t watch Regular Individuals (on Hulu) when it got here out a couple of years in the past, you MUST. That is Brian and I’s second time via as a result of we cherished it a lot. It’s a romance collection with Paul Mescal and Daisy Edgar-Jones based mostly on Sally Rooney’s best-selling novel. It follows them as highschool college students via school and a whole lot of heavy life stuff, and it’s a ten/10 in performing, directing, writing, and chemistry. In the event you appreciated One Day, you’ll LOVE this (I believe it’s higher). However if you would like a home thriller, then take a look at The Beast In Me (on Netflix) with Claire Danes and Michael Rhys. OMG. It’s so thrilling with distinctive performances. It’s within the home thriller realm, with rich folks performing badly, however the twists and turns are distinctive. We watched it whereas on our little getaway a couple of weeks in the past, and I’m unhappy it’s over.
From Marlee: Okay, this is among the finest innovations ever – previously, I assumed that these had been gimmicky and perhaps didn’t work, however after attempting one, it has rapidly develop into vital. It’s a type of headache caps that you simply preserve within the freezer and may pull down all the way in which over your eyes. Final 12 months, I purchased one to present in a white elephant (type of as a joke?), but it surely was fought over, and my good friend who ended up with it LOVES it. Since then, my roommate has one which she lets me use, and it really is life-changing. Any time I’ve a headache, I pop this on, and it’s immediate aid. 10/10 invention. This might make an ideal stocking stuffer:)
From Gretchen: I didn’t do a ton of Black Friday purchasing this 12 months, however I did reap the benefits of the sale at Levi’s and purchased myself 4 pairs of denims–figuring out I’d doubtless return a minimum of two. Effectively, sadly, three out of 4 pairs had been a hell no (solely as a result of they had been too small. Once I go to return them, I’m going to measurement up and see how I just like the match). However the fourth pair may simply be my new go-to pant! They’re a lightweight leopard print jean within the “dishevelled dad” fashion, however look extra how I’d like a barrel fashion jean to look on me. They run slightly massive (I believe in Levi’s I’m doubtless a 31, however I attempted these in a 30 and so they had been good). They’ve a 30″ inseam and hit completely at my ankles. I really like the dishevelled look paired with this extra trendy print. It makes me appear to be I’m attempting with my outfit, with out giving up on consolation. On the time of penning this, they’re on sale once more, too!
From Mallory: In the event you didn’t know already, I REALLY love Christmas, and like Emily, I’ve a little bit of an decoration obsession. I like to present personalised ornaments to household and associates too so this 12 months I gifted this one to my roommate, Jade (which I modified the wording on a bit bc it’s not our first christmas as roommates lol) after which I acquired this tradition pet embroidery decoration for my sister and her husband Tom (who acquired a brand new pup this 12 months) after which that spiraled into getting one for my mother and father canine and my boyfriends mother and father canine too. I do know it’s after Christmas, however I truthfully advocate ordering these prematurely so that you can provide them out earlier this 12 months 🙂
From Jess: Final week I talked about my good sweater, and this week it’s all about my new boots🙂 I used to be Christmas purchasing final weekend and determined to pop into considered one of my favourite little new retailers in Highland Park, When Two Change into One: Deliberately Clean x Ririku. I’ve talked about Deliberately Clean a ton as a result of they’re considered one of my favourite shoe manufacturers. Anyway, I’ll be in NYC for the vacations and thought, so long as it’s not snowing, I may simply put on these unbelievable burgundy cowboots since my solely different strolling boot is mainly a rain boot. My puffer coat is perhaps from 2013, however my boots are full on 2025! They make me really feel very, very cool.
From Arlyn: I’ve been eyeing a pair of Rothy’s for fairly some time, however the price ticket at all times felt slightly too steep for a ballet flat. So once I noticed the pair I cherished (these in burgundy with little brass studs) was on sale for $89, I scooped them up quicker than toast burns within the air fryer together with your again turned. I had a little bit of a sizing difficulty on my first go; the outline says true to measurement, however I discovered that to not be correct for me. I’m a strong 8, however the 8 within the sq. Mary Janes was manner too tight. Perhaps if my foot had been narrower. The change course of was tremendous simple and fast, and the 8.5 ended up being good for me. Since they arrived on Thursday, I’ve worn them every single day, and so they simply make all my lazy mother garments look a lot extra elevated! Some colours are nonetheless on sale, so RUN!
Thanks for hanging out slightly with us, and for these of you celebrating Christmas, we hope you may have a really merry Christmas. But additionally see you tomorrow xx
