Links I Love Week 45
Links I Love Week 45
I am spending the weekend in Florida with my niece and nephew for what they call Auntie Camp. My sister and her husband are traveling, and I am helping out with them. It was a quick “yes” when she asked me, knowing how fast the kids were growing up. I feel I missed so much during the pandemic years not seeing them as much. They are at such fun ages. It’s been a busy but fun weekend.
This also puts a lot in perspective on the war in the Middle East and makes my heart heavy for all the families grieving. I continue to keep those in my prayers and send you all love.
As many of you have mentioned, you want me to continue with links I love as they spark joy and sprinkle the magic of France in your inbox. Thank you for your continued support.

I got caught wearing my husband’s socks this week. I never owned a pair of Bomba’s, but they ended up in my sock drawer a few weeks ago, and I secretly kept washing and wearing them until I got caught. They are 25% off right now, so I will be ordering my own socks and a pair of compression socks to wear for flying.

I wore this travel set on my way to Florida. While I usually travel in jeans, this was a dream. Frank & Eileen sent it to me, and I am forever changed. Yulia and I shot it earlier this week, and I promise to share photos of it styled soon. These pants are now on my wishlist for the holiday. I have never been into dressing up for the holidays, but I am into it this year.

I have been loving two clean sunscreens that offer a beautiful tint and zinc protection, including this Odacité one with SPF 50 and Weekend Skin. (I just placed a reorder for it during the Credo sale) Sunscreen should be a year-round part of your skincare routine.

Love this weeks links and stories. Looking forward to trying the sun screens; living in the desert wearing sunscreen is essential. I use the Olay (yellow top) 30 have for years it blends easily and since running errands or simply picking up the mail in 105+ degree weather I reapply often. After this summer I’m looking for an upgrade so thank you for the recommendations. Big hug to Henri & sending love and peace to you and your family.
Hi Jo,
I hope you love the sunscreens. They are clean and have Zinc in them. Both important qualities for sunscreen!
Sending lots of love to you xo Keep me posted on what you think of the new sunscreens.
Loved the links. I had been looking for something like those Madewell loafers. (Suzanne’s ran too large!)
Is the Travel outfit worth the price??
Hi Robyn,
I LOVE the travel outfit and can totally understand the concern on price. I just ordered a Quince cashmere travel set for half the price and will review it to let you know how it is. Perhaps that is a better price point and option 🙂
Traveling home in the travel set now and I do love the comfort and feel of it. While I typically travel in jeans, this is a nice change especially for a 7 am flight. xo
Nice that you gave French Wink a shoutout. The two ladies are charming And their shop is at top of my day shopping (after Bergdorfs). Posh here is also a lot of fun at this time of year.
Hi Patti,
I haven’t met the owners of French Wink in person just online. They seem super sweet and I would love to visit their store one day. POSH is a dream especially this time of year.
Lots of love to you!
I wish that I could read all your links to The Times, but I would have to subscribe to read the article. Am I doing something wrong? At a dollar a week I don’t want to spend $52 to read a handful of them.
Hi Yvonne,
NYT charges for their content, I do not. If you aren’t happy with the way they run their service I suggest you reach out to them directly. I do my best to identify NYT articles and you have the choice to read them or not. Sometimes, that requires a subscription. I do find their content valuable and I pay for a subscription. Thank you xo
I have quite a few pants from Frank & Eileen and boy, they’re so expensive! I even asked if they had any promo codes and no. But I still love them!
Hi Kathy,
Try signing up for their emails. I have seen a few promo codes come in that way and in printed mail. They won’t allow me to share the codes on the blog because I have a large audience and they don’t want them going viral. I do love their Sligo pants. What are your favorite styles?
