Links I Love Week 35: Year 2025

I hope you are enjoying the long weekend. We have crisp weather in Chicago and I am enjoying it. Henri and I were able to get to the farmers market, park, and walk on Saturday morning. In case you missed it, Paris Every Day started shipping to preorder customers this week. Books should be arriving so soon! I am nervous and excited for the next phase of the book writing process. I would love to see how you are enjoying the book when it arrives.
Calendars arrived this week along with something special I ordered to add to packages. There was a printing error with the small calendars and those should be reshipped to me right after the holiday weekend. Large calendars will ship this weekend and head out after the mail holiday.
Grab your coffee and croissants, and join me for links I love.

I spotted my crossbody bag from Rive Droite available here. For the leopard lover, there is one for you, too. I wear this bag in the red version all summer long. This is a French bag and very Parisian to wear. They also offer a tote bag in two colors. I am excited because I haven’t seen this brand sold in the US on many sites, and they sell out quickly.
