Links I Love Week 46

I have been busy this week with Gift Guides, blog posts, and adding new prints to The Print Shop and Paris planning. My shipping cutoff is December 11th, and retailers are in high gear for Black Friday/Cyber Monday. Stay tuned for discounts and codes. Henri will be four on Monday! He finally felt better, and we returned to our long weekend walk. We are still taking it easy for the next couple of weeks. For his birthday, he gets a cheese cake! (my sense of humor is coming out)

The lipstick trick every French woman knows

First they built a relationship, then they built a brand. I loved their wedding story! Plus, I am a sucker for a brownstone.

I haven’t been able to stop thinking about this lamp. It will look perfect on our dresser and mirror combo.

How tech created a recipe for loneliness. I use social media for work, but I don’t know if I would be on it if it depended on so much. I don’t use it for my personal life. I haven’t posted on Facebook in years.

For the tea lover, this Palais des Thés set is currently on sale 20% off. It would be such a fun holiday addition if you are entertaining and want to offer holiday teas to your guests.

This week, I watched The Martha Stewart Documentary. I have mixed feelings. Seeing her life story play out was interesting, and I agree that she was the original influencer. I love how she was able to bounce back after her jail time and reinvent herself. Some of her comments were tough to swallow. I know it was a mixed review from readers who sent DMs in.

This Week’s Best Sellers

Everything you need to know about French butter: This topic came up during a meeting in Paris. It is a hot topic on social media and among Americans, but the French don’t understand the buzz.

Our Frame TV is on sale! We recently added this frame to i, and it is a game-changer. It looks so much better!!

A single mom brought her toddler on the first date, it did not go as planned. I loved this sweet story.

I loved my Frame jeans so much that I bought them in another color. I have been wearing these jeans on repeat and in most of my photos from Paris and Chicago.

The best new beauty products of 2024, according to Elle. The two products I use on this list are Ptiox, which I love and gives my skin a beautiful glow, and the UBeauty Resurfacing Flash Peel, which makes an instant difference on my skin.

The valuable things from grandmas house you should never get rid of

I bought this cookbook this week, and it is an instant mood booster flipping through. There are so many desserts I want to make, and I am sending my sister a copy so we can make some over the holidays with the kids!

Also, these pumpkin muffins are on my to bake list.

My Paris sweatshirt from H&M is still sold out, but I found this one for $20! These sold out so quickly last time. It makes a great gift. I sized up to an M and hung mine to dry.

Airlines will use Apple airtags to help locate luggage

Dudley Stephens gifted me this coat; saying I love it is an understatement. I just transitioned into my Barbour coat for fall, and it wasn’t warm enough to walk with Henri. This is super warm, and the small fits with extra room for scarves. I tested it out on our long weekend walks, and it was great!
