It was a busy week of playing catch up in these parts. I have a big project underway behind the scenes that is keeping me heads down in addition to all my regular work for w&w and Paris, Perfected. As such, this weekend will be one spent blissfully soaking up summer in New York City before I sneak away for a few days next week. 

I hope you enjoy this week’s edit – it is full of great sales in particular – and have a wonderful weekend!

WHAT I DID THIS WEEK:

• I was finally able to unveil a special project I was honored to shoot in Paris earlier this month. I have long believed in buying fragrances to mark occasions – particularly special trips and getting to work with Viktor + Rolf to promote their Flowerbomb fragrance while in Paris was so special to me. You can shop it HERE and use code FLOWERPOWER20 to get 20% off your order! It is easy to see why it has been a bestselling perfume for so long – it is such a great fragrance. The fact that I got to purchase it in Paris where I made my first ever “grown up” perfume purchase when I was 15…felt very kismet to me. 
• I made a huge batch of this pasta salad. It was great to be eating all week for lunch.
• I spent a lot of time updating The Shop at last! You can now browse new favorites of mine in the Noteworthy Finds and Seasonal Favorites categories.
• I’ve been back to my Five Minute Journal and Daily Stoic every morning and I have to say – it has been so grounding. There really is nothing like being reminded every day of what you’re grateful for to level set you. 

READ + LOOK + LOVE:

• Way to store more in small closets.
• Books to elevate your summer reading list.
• Differences between the French and Americans. (Adding this book to my cart! The author Ajiri Aki is a favorite follow on Instagram).
• Relatedly, French parents don’t know what they’re doing either. 
• Ways to improve your mood.
• A handy guide to the Paris flea market. (If you’d like a tour guide – I have some great ones I recommend for Paris, Perfected clients).

THE BEST SALES THIS WEEKEND:

• Brooklinen is running their summer sale so you can score 20% off my favorite bedding! I detail all my favorite products in this post if you’d like guidance on what I think is worth buying. I’ve been shopping this brand since 2015 and I still love the feeling of crawling into my bed every night if that doesn’t convince you! 
• MyTheresa launched an up to 70% off sale and there are loads of designer pieces including a bunch of Toteme pieces marked down significantly. Sizes are limited of most but I love this top (I’d pair with jeans and strappy sandals), these sneakers, this blazer, this silk scarf and not on sale but also love this silk scarf.
• If you haven’t yet shopped it – you can score 20% off at Credo Beauty’s summer sale which includes pricier brands I love including Westman Atelier and OSEA!
• If you need an Erborian BB Cream restock – it is on sale right now at Ulta!
• Saie Beauty is 20% off right now! If you buy one thing – let it be the Super Glowy Gel – It is my go-to, favorite primer. If you have more product questions, you can read my Saie Beauty Review.
• Madewell is doing a big sale and their selection right now is really good! The sale includes this dress I just wore in Paris here (I also own the black – size 8 in both) The mini version of the dress is also included in the sale and I am also loving this blazer, these shorts, this dress and this packable sun hat. Also my go-to cover up of this summer has been this linen button down (seen here) & it is included in the sale as well! I sized down to a Small as it is rather oversized.
• Jenni Kayne’s 20% off Sweaters Sale ends tonight! You can score my favorite sweaters (I own the Cashmere Fisherman in four colors!) at a discount (which is when I have always bought them since they are $$$). Use code SWEATERS20.

SHOP AND LOOK LONGINGLY:

• These Hermes look alike sandals have been a bestseller with you guys this Spring and when I saw they now have a raffia version I bought them immediately! I got them and love them.
• Also in cute shoe news – how chic are these sneakers from Madewell?!
• Massimo Dutti has a lot of pretty pieces for summer right now. Favorites of mine I spotted include this dress, this knit tank, this dress, this dress, these sandals, this striped knit and this perfect date night dress.

• Just wow to this new M.M.LaFleur dress. I am in love with the beautiful blue color! Would make for a great wedding guest dress.
