Happy Friday! + weekly roundup

Happy Friday my lovelies! As another (loooooong) week draws to a close I'm doing my "it's Friday!" dance. Thank you all so much for your sweet advice on getting it all done (and letting go of the idea that I need to have it all together) on Wednesday. I'm still feeling so overwhelmed by everything on my plate and can already feel myself going into meltdown mode. With sponsored posts to work on this weekend, Spring cleaning (did you catch my checklist yesterday?) to tackle and a general sense of not quite cutting it as a momma/significant other/blogger/daughter/etc looming, I'm starting to see the merit in taking breaks and checking out. Ashley (a blogger I can't get enough of lately) shared this nugget of wisdom earlier in the week and I couldn't agree more: "We never noticed the beauty because we were too busy trying to create it.” Hopefully this weekend will include a little recharging and time to notice the beauty that's already happening! Here's what I've been loving around the web:

the cutest #jcrewdenim video (I'm team boyfriend!) a fun tour of Sarah Jessica Parker's gorgeous home (and personality) via Vogue How To Dress Like A French Girl with Refinery 29 10 amazing tips for better living via The Vault Files & a surprisingly moving experiment (watching strangers make out is awkward + awesome)
