This Week's Top 10: A little bit of everything

Fran Acciardo This Week's Top 10: A little bit of everything; Queen Elizabeth


1. First things first, Rest in Peace to the Queen.


The past few weeks have been so busy for me and I feel like I have so much to catch up on here. I got back from Turkey two weeks ago, and last weekend I was in my hometown, Milwaukee, for one of my high school friend's weddings. This weekend Joe is in town in NYC for a concert, and then in two weeks I have my cousin's wedding! 


2. Shoutout to my Delta Amex for getting me upgraded to first class last weekend! I've talked about this credit card before but I absolutely love it; the benefits have saved me hundreds of dollars on flights and luggage, and have made traveling so much easier and more comfortable (free flight changes, free first-class, and comfort+ upgrades...) I highly recommend it and wanted to share my link again because I got a few questions in my DM's about what credit card I use after I shared that I was sitting in first class. You can earn 40,000 bonus miles by using my link, which can be worth two domestic flights!!


3. I wore this dress to the wedding last weekend and absolutely loved it. It is now sold out but I love the mini version of it... probably one of the prettiest dresses I've ever worn, and the brand is so high quality. 


Speaking of dresses - I bought this fun sequin dress yesterday (under $100); I have no occasion to wear it but I just love it. I got the black, and I will probably wear it around the holidays or on NYE, but I also love the white version for a bachelorette party if you're a bride-to-be!


Also under $100: this flattering printed satin mini (I love this style dress for dinners out or random events in the city) and this gorgeous midi dress that would be perfect for a wedding with the right accessories! + this ADORABLE tie-front top!



4. Last week I bought these boots for fall, and I plan to order this skirt! Both are such chic and versatile pieces.


5. The latest book I've finished is American Dirt by Jeanine Cummins; it's an incredible story about a mother and son trying to flee from the cartel in Mexico. It was definitely a departure from my usual beach reads, but I loved it. It was such an immersive, cultural read and gave a lot of insight into the experiences a migrant faces. One of the best books I've read this year.


6. For the wedding last weekend I randomly picked up this $8 lip gloss, and now it's one of the best lip glosses I've ever tried. Would highly recommend it. It's gorgeously shimmery and very hydrating/smooth. I have shade 003 (Moon).


While we're on the beauty topic: I can't live without these dew drops + this blush.


7. I saw these earrings in-store yesterday and I think I need to go back for them. They're so gorgeous and look wayy more expensive than $40.


8. I CAN NOT stop listening to this song.


9. This pink cottage has the most gorgeous jewel-box interiors, and you can even stay there through Air BnB!


10. Last but not least, if you haven't yet downloaded the September Moodboard Desktop and/or iPhone wallpapers, you can find them here! I added a new version this week so there is now the desktop wallpaper with and without "September" on it. 



Hope you all have a fabulous weekend!!

xoxo
