Pottery Barn Kids is now selling Very Hungry Caterpillar bedding.

That's all I got.

Midsummer, as it turns out, is a great time to shop for heavily discounted bridesmaids' dresses. And sure, most of the pieces on sale are the "summery" colors, but pale silvers, jewel tones and grey/lilac shades can work beautifully for fall and winter weddings, as well - picture that orange one-shoulder dress below worked into an autumn palette of chocolate and gold.

Pale & Silvery

Bastille Day was technically on Thursday, but hey: that's close enough to the weekend, and any excuse to eat crepes, right?

Check out BrunchCritic's list of NYC crepe spots here (including Norma's, Yorkville Creperie, and Yo In Yo Out Diner), or click here to make your own (still deciding which direction to head in myself). Other foodie ideas: cheeses at Artisanal, cocktails at Brasserie Beaumarchais, or French toast at The New French.

And there are Bastille Day celebrations at the Novotel in Times Square all day today; click here to learn more.

This is exactly what I want to be wearing everywhere, all the time.

Kain (viewed at The London yesterday) is heavy on the nautical stripes, neutrals (love the mustard-and-navy combo), and butter-soft knits, and I love it all.
