Happy nearly autumn! Here’s what I’m thinking about too much these days:

  • Unfortunately, I will not rest until I own a Murano glass lighting fixture. I sure like (but obviously will not buy, at least not now) this elaborate sconce.

  • Super into these Marimekko-esque beads.

  • I’m tired of rifling through my too-full bag for lip product — Building Block’s (on-sale!) lipstick sleeve to the rescue.

  • I’m so pleased with this nice-looking socket light kit I got off Etsy — the twisted cord is so sleek.

  • I’m taking a beginning sewing class this fall and all I can think about is what clothes I’m gonna make with my new skills. I’ve got my eye on so many plaids (and new arrivals from Swanson’s, of course).

  • I’m really going craft crazy this fall: I’m also taking a virtual course on natural dyeing in October — join me?

  • This is the only thing I want to wear this coming season.

  • I only just saw that the iconic Simon Miller bubble clogs have been rendered in rubber — thanks to bouncy brand Melissa. I like shiny sepia.

  • Baggu has done it again and again, and again.

  • Excited to try this new-to-me scent for fall cleansing purposes.

Thanks for reading! Anything speak to you? Got recommendations? Hit reply; I want to hear from you (and may feature your recommendation in an upcoming newsletter!)
