Jen's Weekend Drafts: "She Got Me and I Got Her."

+SHE GOT ME AND I GOT HER: This video of a husband is remembering his late wife with the tenderest and most grateful heart made me weepy. He mentions that “the holy grail” of their relationship was the fact that “she got me and I got her.” Ugh. Hand over my heart.

+DON’T PLAY IT COOL: Amen.

+EDITH WHARTON FILM ADAPTATION: Excuse me? The casting here is wild. I have a small to large sized crush on Leo Woodall after seeing him in “Tuner” — did anyone else see that movie?! Excellent. Exquisite. And very surprising. It has an energy somewhere between “Uncut Gems” and “Whiplash” (both of which I also loved) if those niche references track with anyone. Anyway, Leo Woodall and…Sydney Sweeney?! I mean, I have to tune in just to see the chemistry between those two in a period piece.

+MY INTERVIEW ON TOTALLY BOOKED WITH ZIBBY: Eek! This was a pinch me moment. Zibby is a big deal in the book world and I was so honored she asked me on to discuss my book, creative practice, and the art of paying attention. So flattered — let me know what you think!

+BANANA REPUBLIC X LA LIGNE!: Coming 9.9. I will be stalking the site for this release!

+WEEKEND SHOPPING: SO many good sales happening; I did a big post on the best of the best here. But a few items especially high on my radar…and most of these are on sale! Special mention that the Ogee blush/contour sticks I’ve been obsessing over are currently 20% off. And, not pictured below because I discovered this late last night thanks to a Magpie reader who alerted me: 25% off THE BEST SHAMPOO EVER. I added these and other goodies (including sweaters from The Great!) to my Labor Day Shopmy Curation.
