Links I Love Week 33

I spent part of the week at home in Ohio visiting my dad and friends. It was a quick trip but always great to be home. I was able to fly home early Thursday morning and spend some quality time with Henri and catch up on work. Summer in Chicago is special and we really try to take advantage of the warmer weather while we have it. I hope you enjoy this week’s links I love with your coffee and croissants.

This weekend I was able to work on some wedding details. (shoes, dress, and ceremony details)  I am spending the afternoon with my friend Danielle and her girls.

These colors will rule interiors in 2023. My favorite Homburg Grey that is in our front room is a top color. I would like to think we are trendsetters 😉

Sisley Paris came out with an enzyme exfoliating mask I am dying to try. I love their products so much and while they are an investment they work great and a little goes a long way. 

I enjoyed Cupcakes and Cashmere trip recap to Paris this summer. It is always fun to see the perspective of someone else’s trip to Paris. 

This sound machine has been a game changer for both sleep and work. I turn it on to block out any noise while I work and it also helps me sleep at night. It was under $50 and such a great investment. If you have a noisy work from home situation, you will want to look at adding one of these.

I recently watched the Shania Twain documentary on Netflix. I love Country music and really enjoyed her story. And I was surprised how much I still remembered and wish I had the opportunity to see her in concert one day.

Samantha Brown shares 5 easy packing tips. I loved her growing up and she definitely influenced my career path as a kid. 

I ordered this Boden blouse in a size 6 and I am obsessed. It comes in 3 colors and I am tempted to buy the navy or the wine color. It is adorable and perfect to tuck into a pair of jeans and pair with ballet flats for fall. 

Another piece I recently ordered and loved is this v-neck cashmere cotton sweater from J.Crew. I took the sizing notes into consideration (it runs big) and purchased an XS which was perfect. I have it in navy and I know I will wear it on repeat.

I am currently on the hunt for wedding shoes.

I haven’t worn heels in forever but know I will want some height. And I need to make a decision about my dress fitting. I am deciding between something like this or this one.

Your pandemic puppy was not a mistake. This one made me cry. It’s a NYT article. If you have limited access, this one is worth it! 

This week’s best sellers include my favorite gift to give. 

I am crushing on this oversized cashmere sweater for Reformation. It’s a perfect café sweater for a rainy people-watching day in Paris this fall or winter. 

These new luxury hotels in Paris have the most stunning rooftops. I stayed in one of the hotels earlier this year. 

I am getting a lot of questions about the necklace that I wear every day.

It is a locket from Monica Vinader with a chain as a second necklace. It was a gift from the brand that I love. I am still trying to figure out what is going on inside the locket. My niece votes for Henri. You can save 20% off the locket with code REBECCA20 at checkout.
