five. for. friday.

Hi! Hey! Hello out there! My apologies for the hiatus and radio silence over here lately. I was on vacay in NYC for almost a week and then decided to take another week off from blogging in order to get caught up on some freelance work. (Side note: Isn’t the first week back from holiday always the hardest?!) While I will definitely be sharing a recap of my trip v. soon, I thought I would close out the week with a roundup of links I’m currently loving. Enjoy!

1. Tiny Spaces: A Book Lover's Chic Manhattan Studio (Brit + Co) // Brit + Co just launched a new video series this week called Tiny Spaces in which they spotlight tiny (yet very chic!) living spaces. First up was York Avenue blogger Jackie Clair’s Manhattan studio apartment. I’ve been following Jackie’s blog and Instagram for some time now (she’s always posting about the coolest NYC spots!) and her apartment is serious #goals. When can I move in?
2. 73 Questions With Kendall Jenner (Vogue) // If you’ve never tuned into Vogue’s 73 Questions series, then you’re seriously missing out. While I may not be a fan of the Kardashians, anyone who’s BFFs with Gigi Hadid is good in my book. Kendall Jenner handled this rapid-fire question sesh like a pro. (Try and guess what her hidden talent is...) Also, can I just say that I’m low-key obsessed with Kendall’s blush pink, fluttery cold-shoulder top. Major swoon.
3. The Challenge: A Week of Pink (J.Crew) // Challenge accepted: The Man Repeller’s Leandra Medine wore pink for five days straight (decked out in J.Crew, no less!) and she nailed it. My favorite look is from day two — her sequined skirt, mixed stripe sweater and playful straw watermelon bag is nothing short of sartorial perfection.
4. A Week in NYC on a $36,000 Salary (Refinery29) // So I just discovered Refinery29’s Money Diaries series and I’m kind of hooked. This week, they spotlighted a web editor in NYC with a $36,000 salary. In a nutshell, they tracked her spending habits for a seven-day period to see where all her hard-earned dolla dolla bills are going.
5. Internship Dos and Don'ts from Nicole Najafi, Founder of Industry Standard (Brit + Co) // Embarking on a fall internship? Girl, you’ve got this. Check out these game-changing dos and don’ts from Industry Standard founder, Nicole Najafi. I especially love what she had to say about always going the extra mile — talk about a good rule of thumb for every internship and job you have moving forward!
