Happy Friday friends! Is it just me or do the weekends not even feel like weekends anymore? With so many fun projects happening at once, gone are the days of Saturdays and Sundays spent in pajamas (which was when I did my recharging from the week... oh well).

The past week was full of client meetings, making plans for upcoming shoots and documenting outfits for the blog. Lorelai and I had two play dates a piece (hey, momma play dates totally count) and are making a few last minute plans for Father's Day. We'll spend this weekend playing, prepping for work and celebrating the best daddy and partner two girls could ask for.

Here's what I've been loving lately:

a look into The COMMN's creative space
Arden Wray's gorgeous home and eclectic closet
a fun new way to shop with Of A Kind
behind Design Love Fest's spectacular blog and bedroom with SMP Living
& 73 Questions With Olivia Munn

Father's Day came quickly this year, didn't it?! I always have the hardest time shopping for the men in my life and I usually scramble to put it all together at the last minute... oops. Since Mr. Jackson isn't terribly into gifts (he asks for "nothing" every year, that party pooper!) we'll probably be going with a little something handmade and a killer dinner this Father's Day.

For the men in your life that deserve a treat, it's always safe to gift them updated basics, useful luxuries (aren't these speaker options cool?!) and maybe one or two "just for fun" things. Mr. Jackson has had his eye on a little robot (don't ask why, men are such a mystery to me) for the longest!

I haven't ventured into LOFT in quite a while and I don't think I've ever gone as far as to purchase something from the store. I have no specific reason to boycott the brand but I'm never pulled in when I'm wandering around our shopping center. This week I was working with a personal styling client (Do you need my help with outfits? I'll be posting more soon but feel free to email me at chelsea@chelseaandthecity.com for inquiries) and I stumbled upon something that may have me hitting up my local LOFT more often.

Lou & Grey is a LOFT offshoot that focuses on "clothing for a comfortably confident life", something I can definitely get behind. With wardrobe staples galore (shirt-dresses, comfortable v-necks & simple lines) in a cool neutral palette, what started off as LOFT's line of lounge pieces has evolved into a full-blown edited capsule collection of texture-rich pieces for everyday.

Are you a fan of LOFT? Will you be stopping by a little more too?
