The Link Up
Pleased Sunday everybody! It was one other tremendous busy week over right here however a extremely good one. We hope it was the identical for you too. So now that each one of Em’s fantastic Halloween adorning is completed (did you see what she did inside?!) we’re getting again to revealing extra of the farmhouse! However first, subsequent week we’ve got a reasonably particular residence we’re sharing with you that’s been a very long time coming:) Sorry for the tease! Let’s get into the hyperlinks…
This week’s house tour is one for the books! EHD favourite (and AD 100) designer Giancarlo Valle and his spouse, Jane Keltner de Valle (Cofounder Paloroma and former model director of AD), designed simply probably the most particular residence. This residence, initially inbuilt 1863 is full of superb, wealthy colours, woods that make your soul really feel completely happy, and a mode that’s each refined and welcoming.

Beanie | Cardigan | Striped Shirt | Pants | Boots | Purse
From Emily: The issue with loving one coloration a lot (blue) is that layering blue underneath blue appears boring. So I purchased this shirt to layer underneath my blue, not simply because it’s an excellent stripe (it’s a darkish camel coloration with a tiny pinstripe of black) but additionally as a result of it drapes very nicely, could be very skinny and due to this fact is a good “under-cardigan” layer. I hate when stiffer button-ups – cotton, linen, or poplin get caught within the armpits or bunch up across the chest the place the buttons are, however this one is slick so that you simply slide proper into the sleeves. I really sound just like the laziest individual ever however not all buttons are good underneath cardigans and we all know this. Anyway, in case you are out there for an excellent layering button-up I like this one (sporting a measurement small).
From Mallory: I’ve acquired some fall hyperlinks for you all!! I swapped my regular candles for THESE and so they’re so cute. Plus they’re simply the correct amount of spooky and so they gained’t break the financial institution at solely $3 per candle! Extremely suggest. My second fall hyperlink is this Mrs. Meyer’s everyday cleaner – the acorn spice despatched is IT and I anticipate it to drop each single 12 months. Lastly, in case you have but to get a pumpkin candle I just lately snagged this one and it smells nice and is tremendous cute
From Caitlin: I’m formally a Nuuly convert, guys. I simply acquired my first order – 3 pairs of pants and three clothes – and I’M OBSESSED. I just lately cleaned out over half of my closet and I’m attempting to rebuild my wardrobe with a bit extra intention, so I needed to have the ability to attempt numerous completely different new manufacturers and types whereas retaining my shallowness intact (I actually don’t love the becoming room course of, you recognize?). ANYWAY. Nuuly is a $98 month-to-month clothes rental service which isn’t low cost, however it’s SO WORTH IT. I’ve been in a position to escape of my Madewell rut a bit and likewise in a position to hold the items I like at a reduced fee (among the clothes in my field had been 73% off retail!). So my first month really saved me A LOT of cash on clothes that I wouldn’t have been courageous sufficient to attempt on in-store (actually not attempting to play “guess the scale” underneath fluorescent lights, ha). My two favourite items from my present cargo are these famous Anthropologie pants and these corduroy flares from Free People. I by no means would have assumed that both of these would match my huge hips/butt/thighs or that they’d fall like they do on the mannequin, BUT BOTH PAIRS DO! I believe plenty of my mindset continues to be caught within the early 2000s the place discovering pants was a complete nightmare so it’s actually thrilling to be taught what matches me now, in 2023, within the consolation of my own residence. HUGE FAN. (You will get your first month for $78, too – not sponsored, simply genuinely excited by the service, the variability, and the big selection of sizes out there!)
Additionally From Caitlin: I actually favored this video from Rita Konig on how to lay out a room. It’s a couple of years outdated, however it’s SO HELPFUL – the knowledge isn’t groundbreaking, however it’s such an excellent refresher and Rita actually breaks down the method in a means that left me feeling empowered. It’s just a little underneath 20 minutes and the complete factor is filled with useful reminders. I’m at present working to replace my front room (more on that here, should you missed it earlier this week!) and I can’t wait to implement a couple of of her concepts:)
From Gretchen: This week I’ve been suggesting (to only about anybody who will pay attention) a brand new film to look at known as Flora and Son (on Apple TV). I’m an enormous fan of cute motion pictures–the type that make you grin arduous with out realizing–and this film made me stupid-smile for positive. It follows a younger mom, Flora, and her teenage son in Dublin as they wrestle to narrate to and get together with one another. She finds a guitar and encourages her son to be taught to play, hopeful {that a} interest will hold him from stepping into hassle, however as a substitute finally ends up studying it herself. The appearing is INCREDIBLE, the storyline is simply so candy and redeeming, plus it’s acquired JGL (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) taking part in her guitar trainer–I like that man. Simply writing about it makes me need to go flip it on once more! Undoubtedly including it to my High 10 Film Checklist however would love to listen to what y’all suppose should you give it a watch.

They add a wild cool distinction to her farmhouse aesthetic however would look superior in so many sorts of properties.
From Jess: I discovered the perfect pair of heels! Really, I talked about them in one other coloration for a marriage final 12 months however solely as ones I used to be .

I went again to those, barely underwhelmed, however couldn’t discover something I favored extra that match the invoice and the finances. However then to my delight, they give the impression of being SO GOOD ON! Like actually good. And right here’s the opposite nice half – they arrive in A TON of colours and I used to be in a position to get mine for half the value on Poshmark! The heel is round 3.75″ so that they aren’t brief however they really feel snug to this point (I’m going to attempt these gel pads as a result of I don’t plan on leaving the dance flooring:)). I extremely suggest!
Additionally From Jess: Undereye concealer was the primary “actual make-up” my mother ever purchased for me. I acquired these darkish circles from BOTH sides of my household. I had no probability. For sure, I’ve tried A LOT of concealers and have all the time come again to the NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer till I discovered HAUS LABS’ Triclone Skin Tech Hydrating + De-puffing Concealer with Fermented Arnica. As a result of I now be taught 80% of latest issues on TikTok, that’s the place I used to be satisfied to attempt it. It was a threat however one which has PAID OFF! Due to The Lipstick Lesbians’ Concealer Wars video. What’s nice about it’s that it’s hydrating and doesn’t want any powder to set! As in it should look worse with powder (or so stated the type Sephora worker who was serving to me). Now it nonetheless will crease just a little (as a result of duh, wrinkles) however lower than different ones I’ve tried. It’s additionally medium protection which I want given I don’t put on a ton of face make-up but additionally have darkish circles that want masking.

My household’s clothes is plagued with stains. Marinara, oil, Greek yogurt, and a large number of different kid-friendly meals. It’s all the time smeared throughout us and generally, my detergent simply isn’t sufficient. Principally, you simply rub the bar on the stain, after which wash like regular. It’s AMAZING at taking out actually robust stains, particularly on mild materials. Grass stains, dust, meals…the entire above. I even used it on outdated set-in stains that didn’t wash out the primary time with simply detergent, and it acquired the job carried out. Greatest $5 spent shortly!
Have a lovely remainder of your day. xx
