Happy Fri-yay friends! Who else is loving the hint of fall that’s in the air?? The light is a little bit lower, the days noticably shorter and we actually had a crisp morning in San Francisco this weekend! I’m starting to crave apple and walks in the park instead of the beach.

Sadly, we won’t get a lot of downtime this weekend. After our escape to wine country (did you see it here??) we’ve got to buckle down and make progress on the house. Who knew picking white paint could be so difficult! I think I’m going to do a post about the design mystery that is white paint. I’ve also done one Periscope tour of the house – would you be interested in seeing another?? If so, watch your phones on Sunday and you’ll get another sneak peek.

In the meantime, here are a ton of fun links to keep you busy!

> Our favorite ladies at Rue Magazine celebrated five years this week. It feels like only yesterday I was at their launch party. Check out the anniversary issue here.

Till Monday my dears!
