Is it true? Could it really be the last weekend of summer? Sure, temps will still hit triple digits here for a few more weeks, but once I spot that first kid with a backpack headed to school on Monday morning, the mental shift will have begun as I realize it’s time to set some goals and embrace the more structured routine of fall. I mean, I already spent most of Saturday cleaning out and organizing my closet, which is my equivalent of back-to-school planning (I’ve got to make room for all those fall wardrobe staples I’ve been pinning!) Are you guys feeling it? You know, watching for turning leaves, craving pumpkin spice lattés, and narrowing down which boots you’re going to buy this season? Or am I jumping the gun a bit… in any case, I’d love to hear how you all get in a fall frame of mind, and enjoy my favorite links from the week!

So excited that my Antiquaria friends just launched greeting cards!
This just might be my dream house.

This designer sure knows how to throw a mean dinner party.
This Italian feast was the most delicious way to celebrate the last days of summer.
