Hi and happy Friday from Vermont. We are here shooting my ABLE Fall collection and catching up with friends for a few days. We had such a fun time on the river last night, kids running around, playing in the water as the sun went down. What summer is all about. It’s been go, go, go for the last few weeks so I’m ready to slow down a bit and have some “boring” days as time is flying. Marin has grown up SO much this summer which has been amazing and fun to watch but also giving me lots of big feelings. Pepper is growing up too! She’s almost 8 months old and it feels like we are finally getting out of the exhaustion of the early puppy phase. Hope you enjoy this week’s round-up. Wishing you all a great weekend.
If you’re looking for something to buy, try, read, share or pin, we’ve got you covered. Here’s the best of the week…

“We know it’s healthy to keep our bodies flexible as we age, but I think sometimes we forget how important it is to keep our minds flexible. If we don’t recognize that language and attitudes constantly evolve, we might rightly be accused of a stubborn conservatism that clings to our own radical youth, as if ours were the only generation capable of making progress.”
