Introducing a New Series: the Wednesday Weekly Wish List
In this post: Wednesday Weekly Wish List is the place to find recommendations and ideas, personal favorites and little pleasures that will add a bit of joy to your life.⇒
Could your midweek use a pick-me-up?
If you’re anything like me, by Wednesday you’re ready for something fresh and new. The Monday blues are gone but it’s too early to get ready for the weekend.
Wednesday is the perfect day to share personal favorites and little joys, to swap recommendations and ideas that will add a bit of fun to your life. I’m not talking about anything life changing, but just a few of those small pleasures that I love and talk about so much.
And that is what the Wednesday Weekly Wish List is all about.
In this new weekly series, I’m joining with two of my besties, Ann from On Sutton Place and Yvonne from StoneGable, and we’ll be sharing with you some of our favorite things. You might find book and film recommendations, latest shopping finds, what’s inspiring us from around the Web, latest projects and little bits of wisdom and whimsy we’ve recently discovered.
We invite you to click the links and enjoy what’s enchanting us right now. Enjoy!

1. Looking for your next television series? This new 7 episode series on HBO is awesome! It’s the ultimate whodunit with impeccable character development and a riveting plot. You just may watch the whole thing in a weekend!
2. Are you into historical fiction? I just finished this book and I loved it! It has everything from intrigue to romance to strong female heroines. It’s fast-paced, suspense-filled and takes place, in large part, in France.
3. My latest fashion obsession is square toe sandals like these and these. It’s been a while since I’ve seen a trend that’s this ubiquitous.
4. I’m crushing on this hairstyle big time!
5. Right before the pandemic I went to Lake Como for a big birthday and stayed at this amazing hotel. I never got a chance to write a post about it because everyone stopped traveling, but the setting was magical and the decor was exquisite! Maybe I’ll still write a post someday…
6. I talk often about high-low decorating and I approach fashion the same way. I balance my super cheap discount purchases like this adorable summer dress with a couple of dream luxury products each year. I just may have indulged in this. (Don’t click if it’s going to bother you that it’s expensive. I’m telling you up front… it’s expensive. Hey, I haven’t bought anything in year… ;-))
7. I’m loving these squares on Instagram right now: this white room, this outdoor patio, this floral arrangement and these magnificent blooms.
8. I’m dying to make this healthy and colorful one-pan dinner idea: turkey and veggie skillet
9. It was relaxed and casual for summer on the blog this week. I shared this idea for entertaining last-minute guests and this cheerful patio decor update, along with this summer table. We also talked about tips for decorating with vintage silver.
10. My next project: a painted writing desk with a hot accent color. Be on the lookout!

Great idea for a pick-me-up in mid-week! I love The Alice Network series and Janet Evanovich books are great too!
