This week’s house tour is actually a home you can stay at if you have the do-re-mi to spend. The phrase “I want to go to there” from an episode of 30 Rock immediately comes to mind. This high-end vacation rental has “a dedicated concierge, swimming pool, open-air cinema, outdoor theater, a gym, a boules court, a children’s playhouse, and the ability to hire a chef on-demand.” Oh, and it sleeps up to 16. So not only is it visually stunning being built into the side of limestone cliffs, your every desire can be met with a snap of a finger. I think most of us will have to resort to looking at it from afar but wow is it dreamy. We highly recommend seeing the rest of the beautiful photos here🙂

From Emily: I’ve always loved Lululemon jackets. Not a big purple person typically but I have an old purple one I’ve been wearing a bunch (you may have seen it in stories). It’s not available anymore but this one is similar. I’ve never not been happy with a jacket from them.

From Caitlin: A few months back, I got an IG ad for a woman who makes these unbelievable hand-blown glasses on Etsy and I haven’t stopped thinking about them since. Like…look at these little fruits! ARE YOU KIDDING ME? Or this holiday version, with little reindeers and penguins and snowmen! Or these little animal figurines!!! They’re so freakin’ cute, right?

From Jess: Today I give you a guaranteed put you in a good mood Spotify playlist…Grandma’s Home (the coolest Grandma if you ask me). It’s got everything from L-O-V-E by Nat King Cole to Dreams by Fleetwood Mac to Put Your Records On by Corrine Bailey Rae. There are just an infinite amount of incredible songs. Currently, You Send Me by Aretha Franklin is playing as I type! Thank you to my friend Emily for this perfect rec:)

Also From Jess: I saw this video on TikTok from @graceful_design_diy about a flexible drill bit extender and now know what I am buying for myself, my dad, and my brother for Christmas. So smart, seemingly easy to use, and very affordable. How did I not know this existed?!

From Mallory: These are the comfiest shorts I’ve ever worn. SOOO soft, I love wearing them to bed or lounging around but I love that they’re also designed for working out if you wanna wear them for that. I have the black heather color and am really into them, but that light blue is also so so pretty!

Also From Mallory: Anyone have recs for electronic wipes?? I’m ready for some squeaky clean screens – tv, computer, etc…are these any good?? What do you guys use?? Would love to hear your electronic cleaning hacks in the comments please and thank you!!! 🙂

From Ryann: Two weeks ago, Caitlin shared her favorite wedding heels and this week I am sharing mine! I alwaysss struggle with wearing heels at weddings because your gal loves to get down on the dance floor. If you ever see me at a wedding, by the end of the night you’ll find me on the dance floor, with shoes fully off. Trust me, I don’t want to be this way. Cut to earlier this month, I had another wedding to attend (wedding season baby) and needed a new pair of heels to match my dress. I ended up getting these which are truly perfect. They aren’t crazy expensive but the heel is sturdy as hell (so important) and they are simple yet sexy and go with everything. And guess what? I wore them to the wedding and didn’t take them off once. I’ll accept my award now thank you very much!!

Thank you for a great week and see y’all Tuesday!
