The Weekend Edition

Happy first weekend of fall! To be fair, though, it’s not feeling anything at all like fall here in Houston. In fact, the temperatures have been soaring over 95 degrees fahrenheit. I’m ready for things to cool down!

There’s been so much going on online that’s been interesting or inspiring to me. Plus, there’s been so much happening right here on Wear + Where + Well. So, I wanted to share it all with you in this weekend update.
