I hope you had a wonderful Memorial Day weekend filled with beautiful weather and some downtime to unwind and relax. If you need a little procrastination before diving into the week ahead, here are some of my favorite links from around the web this week...
What Prince Harry thought his wedding would be like. Behold! My favorite dress from the royal wedding. And Oprah's accessory game was, per usual, Olympic. Her "vintage" hat was 2005 Philip Treacy. (Technically Oprah, something is vintage if it's twenty years old but I sure approve of digging in your closet.) A peek at beautiful British hats, explained by a journalist who usually covers more serious foreign affairs.

My hero Tina Fey on David Letterman's new Netflix series, talking about her "sheet-caking" sketch on SNL.

OMG this old photo of Paris is so evocative!
This editor at The New Yorker unwinds in a unique way.
If you're looking for a career switch, Rolling Stoneis hiring a writer. Feel free to use me as a reference.
Antiques of the Week: I love this carved wooden piece of folk art (hopefully it doesn't creep you out!) Also, this lucite butterfly soap dish is pretty and practical.
