You Must [See, Read, Buy]

1. See Philomena. It’s one of the best movies I’ve seen in a long, long time. Perhaps my favorite since Silver Linings Playbook.

PHILOMENA M

2. Read (or listen to, like I did) – The Gifts of Imperfection by Brene Brown. [Thanks for the recommendation Meg!]

3. Buy – this J.Crew Boyfriend jacket. It’s 40% off  right now! I got it for Christmas and have been wearing it non-stop.

And I must go to bed. Happy weekend!

    I watched the documentary Somm last night, and loved it! I highly recommend it. It’s on Netflix:) The film is about the process to become a Master Sommelier, of which there are only a few hundred in the entire world.

    Fun post! And that’s a cute jacket!! Perfect for this cold, rainy weather we have had.
    So glad you liked the Brene Brown book. I’m re-listening now… obsessed. 🙂
