What are you up to this weekend? The boys and I are going to the Brooklyn library and the public pool — reminds me of my childhood in Michigan. Hope you have a good one, and here are some links from around the web…
How to help the Texas flood victims. (NYTimes gift link)
“For my 70th birthday, I hired an escort.”
Would you sleep in an outdoor bed in Sweden? (NYTimes gift link)
Love this gingham dress for summer.
Since 1980, The French Open has hired an artist to make their official tournament poster. Here are all the posters — so cool!
Are you watching Too Much? Lena Dunham’s new show follows a heartbroken New Yorker who moves to London. The trailer looks bad, then good, so I’m curious to see it.
These cheesecloth blouses — ruffle, button down, cropped — are all gorgeous.
A Comprehensive Guide to Yellow Stripey Things, so you can tell harmless bumblebees (you can pet them) from “asshole” yellow jackets.
How charming is this Tennessee cottage? That guest bedroom!
This mall challenge made me laugh.
Plus, three reader comments:
Says Kady on Kayla Sossin’s week of outfits: “My seven-year-old daughter wears hearing aids. She hasn’t yet become too self conscious of them, but I know that day is coming. I just showed her your photos and she said, ‘Wowwww, she’s so pretty.’ Thanks for your honesty and for the representation. The next generation is watching!”
Says Suz on four questions for you: “Oooh, I have a book rec for you all. Now, the book’s target audience is 12 year olds, but OMG, I LOVED it! I laughed right out loud. The characters are amazing, the feminism is unblinking, and it also somehow manages to be the most lovely, tender ode to sisterhood I’ve read in a long, long time. It’s The Millicent Quibb School of Etiquette for Young Ladies of Mad Science by Kate McKinnon. Yup, SNL/wierd Barbie Kate McKinnon. All I can say is she’s a genius.”
Says Lauren on family trip to England: “Can I just say how much I love that your dad is wearing his life jacket? The sweetest.”
