Happy Friday. We’re back in Vermont and getting settled/preparing for the school year. Ugh, back to school gives me anxiety, still. While we were away we had the garage addition insulated and all the electrical and plumbing roughed in. So exciting! Our list of projects is very long but I love watching this house take shape. I can’t wait to share more of this space during the fall and winter. Wishing you all a great weekend.
P.S. It sounds like everyone liked the new format of CRL that I introduced last week so I’m keeping it!
Here’s the best of the week… –Jess

My SIL gave me this no wire bra as a gift and it might be the most comfortable thing I’ve ever worn (as a bra). I ordered the plunge bra in black and it’s equally as comfortable.
If you want to try Merit’s new eyeshadow (it’s great) this set is perfect. Brows, lashes and shadow plus the No. 2 brush.
I finally decided to order these pants in another color because they are so comfortable and such good quality. I’ve worn them to death this summer.
One of my favorite Sézane sweaters now comes in a stripe version!
