Happy Sunday everyone! The floral mural on the art bar with artist Rachael Jackson has begun and it’s already looking SO GOOD. You might be able to catch little sneak peeks on Rachael and Em’s Instagram stories if you’re interested:) Then we had a VERY important birthday this week – our dear Gretchen turned 30!! We had a little virtual celebration (compliment jar included) and it was pretty wonderful. So please wish our girl a happy birthday and let’s get into these links:)

This week’s house tour is one that Catlin sent the team on Slack with a message that read, “I am low-key obsessed with this house??? I love the window treatment sitch in the dining room.” We all loved it so had to share. It’s just such a cool house.

From Emily: These long-sleeved 70s-style teeshirts are SO GOOD that I bought one in each color for fall. They are thicker than summer tees, but still easy to layer and have a lot of style for something so casual.

From Caitlin: I recently discovered a non-partisan, non-profit organization called Vote Like a Mother and let me tell you: MOMS GET STUFF DONE. If you’re looking for a simple, easy-to-parse, educational resource, THIS IS IT. (Case in point: enter your address for a full breakdown of ALL of the major elections you’re eligible to vote in – including federal, state, and certain local races. The research is all there – they’ve compiled each relevant candidate’s policies for you, and it’s supported by voter registration tools, key dates for your specific elections, and information about your current representation.) To quote their site: “We aren’t telling you who to vote for, but we are insisting that you get educated about the candidates and the issues, and that you show up to your polling place. We know that moms are among the most time poor Americans, so we’ve been hard at work creating a website to make it easy for you to get up to speed on candidates, ballot measures, and the issues you care about.” I’m not a mom, but I know that many of you are – I hope this resource can be helpful for you. (PS. I thought that this page, which explicitly breaks down each presidential candidate’s plans for Child Care, Maternal Health, and Paid Family & Medical Leave was AWESOME. Only facts, no spin. I learned a lot!)

From Jess: I decided to try the Peter Thomas Roth Water Drench Hyaluronic Cloud Hydrating Eye Gel after I ran out of the one I had and guys, I really love it. It feels great putting it on and while I can’t attest personally to the fact it doesn’t cause milia (those little white bumps) yet, I was told it wouldn’t. So big fan so far!

We couldn’t not shout out these two INCREDIBLE kid collections with Jeremiah Brent with Crate&Kids and Eva Chen with West Elm Kids. Even if you don’t have any kids or they are grown you should still look at the thought and creativity of these pieces. Here are just a handful of products from each we loved but truly every piece is so good. Enjoy!

From Arlyn: This is less of a recommendation and more of a “Hey, I’m excited about this one!” I just checked out this new book called “Enchantment: Awakening Wonder in an Anxious Age” by Katherine May (reminder to use your local libraries instead of always buying every new book!) I’m only through the first few chapters and am already dog-earing everything. For anyone who feels utterly exhausted, disillusioned, and frankly, anxious after these last few tumultuous years, I think I recommend it (only because I haven’t finished it yet, but so far, so good). It’s…enchanting.

From: Gretchen: Em and I popped over to our photographer Kaitlin Green’s house the other day for an exciting new design project…coming soon! When she answered the door wearing a sweatshirt I had JUST been eyeballing online, I squealed, “Is that the new Free People sweatshirt??” She had a devilish grin when she replied back, “No!” and then proceeded to show me it was actually an insanely good dupe from Amazon–for a fraction of the price! While I haven’t seen the FP version in person, the quality of this duped sweatshirt still felt prettyyy great. The slouch of the arms is just right. The material is soft and moves how I want my sweatshirts to move. Plus they come in so many cool colors! I bought it immediately when I got home–the one with the rust-brown stripe and blue detailing–and I sized up quite a bit to an XXL for a more oversized look. Kaitlin is very petite and ordered a large for the same reason, but if you like a shorter fit, I think ordering true to size would still work. The arms are plenty roomy and hang just like I’d hoped they would! My only problem now is deciding which other color to buy…

From Mallory: My good friend is having a BABY GIRL!! So when it came to getting a gift I found these cute pacifiers on her registry from this adorable store called Spearmint Love, and then upon pursuing their site I couldn’t help but throw in this adorable floral onesie. If you have a baby, are having a baby, or know someone doing either of those things check it out!

Thanks for stopping by and see y’all tomorrow!
