Ah! This was such a fun week!! Many trips into the city, dinners every night with friends, and a few fun events. Including… an event for the launch of Lilly Pulitzer’s coffee table book. (It also comes in a few gorgeous special editions.) I love coffee table books, and this one is so incredibly well done. It’s packed with content. Never before seen photos, stories of the brand and prints over the years, etc. The book itself is like a work of art. I Ubered home from the event flipping through the pages and couldn’t get over how many details they squeezed into the pages.
I wore a black Lilly dress that I’m downright obsessed with. It fits like a dream and it’s a great way to wear Lilly in the winter. While I was in the store, I spotted this really fun navy and pearl reimagined shift dress. Might have to add it to the collection!
Okay, here’s what was on my radar this week:
ONE // J. Crew Sunnies
I usually stick to the classics (Clubmaster, Wayfarer, etc.) when it comes to sunglasses, but I think I might give this new pair from J. Crew a try. They’re on the trendier side, but there’s still something classic about them. Could be a fun addition for vacations!
TWO // The Case Against Adnan Syed
Did you listen to the first season of Serial (the podcast)? I got super into when it first came out and have read probably every article that came out afterward too. HBO just released a trailer for a documentary on the case… I think it’ll be interesting!
THREE // Valentine’s Day Pajamas
How CUTE are these pajamas? Perfect for Valentine’s Day and they’re under $25. I saw a similar pair online that was more than five times that cost!
FOUR // Frances Valentine
I was so happy to see that Rachel Brosnahan is the new face of Frances Valentine, the fashion label Kate Spade started. Rachel is Kate’s niece and she is a perfect fit for the brand. So seamless and a loving tribute too. The ads they’re running right now seem like the original marketing for Kate Spade NY too, which I love!
FIVE // Striped Valentine’s Day Cookies
I have been in the mood to make cookies and I was researching cute Valentine’s Day options. I stumbled on this video of striped cookies with sprinkles from Preppy Kitchen (he’s the best!) and I think these are the ones to do!!! They look a little labor intensive…. but I ~think~ I’m up for the challenge.
I loved peeping the book and event on your Insta Stories! That book really is gorgeous, and it’s hefty too! // Wow it’s been ages since I listened to Serial, but I was totally hooked! The documentary looks interesting // Have a great weekend! -Audrey | Brunch at Audrey’s
Absolutely LOVING your picks this week!!! Those jammies, the cookies, the Lilly event you went to, and Rachel Brosnahan!!! Happy Friday!! Hope you have an awesome weekend!

I am SO excited about that HBO show! It was the most amazing podcast I have heard in SO long!!!!
I cannot wait for the Adnan Syed documentary – I was OBSESSED with that season of Serial, and went down some real Reddit spirals afterwards trying to learn everything I possibly could about the case!
I literally could NOT get into second season of Serial, but listened to the first season in days. Can’t wait to watch the documentary!

I’ve been trying to stop myself from buying anymore navy dresses lately, because my closet is absolutely bursting with them, but I’m so obsessed with the pearl details on that Lilly dress!!! It’s totally gorgeous.
Cheers,
