I don’t know about you, but this week felt like it FLEW by. We moved from London to Milan Fashion Week, we experienced the first day of fall, and I somehow managed to make it to Friday without really remembering what kept me so busy all week.
That said, I don’t have any in-depth fashion week recaps for you (check Insta Stories), but I do have some life lately updates.
Wearing
If you’ve been reading In Spades for a while, you know that bespoke jewelry is something I’ve been collecting for years. I’ve transformed old jewelry into new pieces, discovered indie designers and even designed my own pieces (more on that soon).
Today I shared a Reel on Instagram of my latest acquisition. I’m OBSESSED.
Here are some other brands that I’m coveting.
Home Decor
Some people do cleanses for the body, some people do cleanses for their space. I’ve done both, but I’m much more of a “we need a TOTAL redecoration!” person.
It won’t be anything major. Wallpaper, a new area rug, some small furniture and drapery. Okay, that actually sounds more intense than I thought.
I’m in love with this wallpaper, but have found a much more affordable option that I love too. Stay tuned for home decor inspo.
Reading & Listening
I finished Olympus, Texas and highly recommend it. While it started off slow, the subtext, nuanced relationships and “make you think” moments really stuck with me.
I’m now on to The Lazy Genius Way. I’m hoping it will inspire me to not write 11th-hour blog posts. 
J/K.
I also started listening to the newly released episodes of The Dropout podcast. If you haven’t read Bad Blood, stop what you’re doing and go buy it. It’s a true story and one of my favorite books ever. The Dropout podcast picks up where it leaves off. Now that Elizabeth Holmes, the star of this story, has begun her court proceedings, they’ve released new episodes. I’m riveted.
