Weekend Reading 8.30.25 – The Stripe

Happy second-to-last day of August and long weekend (how is it already LDW!?) from France. I am very excited to be here, and for a long weekend of fun, celebrating some of my dearest friends. Whatever you’re up to, I hope it’s wonderful and that you get to relax a bit. I’m taking Monday off, but will be back on Tuesday with everything I read last month. Xoxo
