I have not bought anything from the last few Hill House collections, but I loved the latest launch, especially their navy "posy print," which feels perfect for pattern matching this fall. I love the idea of their new Louisa silhouette in the posy print paired with a striped cardigan! (See how they are layering patterns here for inspo, too.)One of my girlfriends was raving about the Louisa nap dress as the most flattering of their silhouettes thanks to the addition of those sleeves. IMO this is a fantastic everyday fall dress, easily paired with flats, sneakers, clogs, boots! I bought their Winston pants, which sold out within minutes (!) and am regretting not buying the matching blouse, which also sold out but is still available in other patterns. Hoping they release more patterned trousers like this in the future.
P.S. If you missed their popular Amira blouse from this launch (ideal for updated under-nap-dress layering), check out this similar $28 style!

Weekend Musings: The Magical Thinking Jar.
I absolutely adored a concept I came across via the Instagram account This Is Like Magic, which shares beautiful, thoughtful ways to "make someone's day." The idea runs like follows:
"Children say the funniest things, yet all too often, I find I forget them after a day or two, or sometimes just a few hours. I'll start telling my husband.. "C said the funniest thing..." and then I can't quite remember. Or I get it a little mixed up and it's not nearly as funny as it was originally. So I started writing down the funnier moments of the day. I keep a jar in the kitchen, and when the kids say something particularly worthy of recording, I grab a scrap of paper (phone bill, envelope, chopstick holder.. whatever is lying around) and I quickly jot it down. Right when it happens. The idea originally came from Joan Didion, who wrote about doing something similar when her daughter was a young girl in The Year of Magical Thinking. So I call them the "Magical Thinking Jars". We have four kids, and pretty quickly outgrew one jar. So now, ten years later, each child has their own. When I'm having a below average day, I reach in and pull out a quote.. and suddenly I'm laughing and remembering a moment I might have easily forgotten. The kids love the jars, too. I find them sometimes with their quotes all poured out, reading them to each other."
I could cry at this concept. One thing Mr. Magpie and I have been trying to do is capture my children saying their favorite catch phrases and malapropisms and mispronunciations on camera. I was thinking the other day I need to start organizing these into a specific Apple Photo album or I'll never be able to find them all. I came across the post above, though, and thought it was just an exquisite way to remember my children. I've just moved a notepad down to the kitchen in the hopes of capturing these moments as they happen.
Shopping Break.
+Daphne Wilde just marked down a ton of her dresses to around $115-$125! Now is a great time to buy a patterned dress for fall, or a solid one for year-round versatility!
+Love this entire look. Want the pants and matching hoodie. Perfect travel day / errand day / rainy day at home look!
+This new release from Parterre is so pretty and polished. I'd wear this to back to school night / teacher conferences / creative work meetings / lunches.
+Adore this suede bucket bag from J. Crew -- it has a minimalist vibe that brings Khaite's wildly popular bag to mind.
+I bought an acid-wash denim dress from Target two years ago that I still wear heavily. It feels very...Isabel Marant? This top and this dress nail the look.
