Happy long weekend friends! I couldn't be more excited for all the Summer fun we have on the agenda this weekend. With Memorial Day (and Mr. Jackson's birthday) on Monday, we've got a few activities planned to welcome the start of the season. The Ferris wheel at the city fair is beckoning and there's a hot air balloon festival a few towns over... not to mention the space in the pool that's already got our names all over it. This week I tried to step away from the computer a little (but basically failed), so there are only a few links for you to catch up on before it's quittin' time:

Katie Ermilio's classic New York apartment from the Rue Magazine archives #bellesandwhistles by Garance Dore Alaina Kaczmarski's charming feminine home tour (again!) via The Everygirl the most hilarious Instagram account ever & rap shirts for white people (you're welcome!)

Happy Friday! This week was filled with fun projects and plenty of family time... in other words, it was (almost) perfect. I met with a wonderfully talented new friend to chat about flexing my creative muscles (more about that soon), answered a few awesome interview questions for a cool project and even fit in time to play a board game with the fam. Saturday and Sunday have plenty of work in store (I'm still catching up on Washington D.C. posts... oops) and later today we're headed to a local art space to catch some live music.

Here's what I loved on the web this (busy) week:

Having family visit is so much fun! While I love hosting my sweet family, it's also really draining to open up your home to guests... I'm going to miss my little sister and momma more than words but this weekend I'm looking forward to reclaiming our space and getting some much needed rest. Hopefully I'll be able to recharge a little, re-group and start fresh with a normal posting schedule. Since I haven't had a whole lot of time to peruse the internet, my favorites are a little sparse this week but here's what I loved:
