The Weekend . . .

With a week behind me full of leisure, thought provoking conversations, decadent food and especially fantastically sweet and lovely desserts, I look ahead to the weekend knowing it all must come to an end as I make my way back home. However, I intend to carry with me the insights, experiences and tastes that made me swell with delight and appreciate the memories that can never be erased.

With many September issues to devour waiting in my mailbox, I look forward to the season that awaits, the apples and apple pies, golden leaves and lower temperatures. While we still have a few more weeks of summer, in my mind, I am prepping for fall and all the potential that is waiting to be seized. After all, with fall comes fashion - fresh and layered, school beginning and many new schedules and renewed chances to get it right.

This past week on the blog was full of food, fashion and the encouragement to always evolve.  Here is a look back on the week that was on The Simply Luxurious Life:

*Choose to Evolve

*Why Not . . . Read the September Fashion Issues?

*A Rustic, Berry Crostata
*A Dependable, Luxurious Side Dish
*Summer Style Inspiration
*Vogue US - September 2011 - Kate Moss
*Fabulous Lingerie - Roaring 20's Style - La Perla - Fall 2011 Collection

Being already in the middle of August, it is certainly time to savor and soak up. I hope you have a fantastic weekend with friends and/or family or slowing down the pace as you rest up for the week ahead. Until Monday, bonjour!
