Thank you to everyone who joined me at Past Basket this weekend. It was great to meet so many of you in person and tackle some of your design questions. I can't wait to put on my styling hat and help new clients transform their homes. If you need a little distraction this week, check out my favorite links from around the web...

• Remember the Burt Reynolds film, Starting Over? I watched it a few months ago and thoroughly enjoyed it, especially this scene.
  

• In last week's post, I wrongly attributed the "third thing" passage to Dani Shapiro. It was poet Donald Hall who wrote it and Dani quoted it. Here's the original essay written by Hall.
  

• Donald Hall was married to poet Jane Kenyon. I've been reading her poetry this week. Try "Having It Out with Melancholy," written in 1993.
  

• Kelly Wearstler designed the interiors of this new San Francisco hotel. It's a rich cornucopia of pattern and color and the rooftop deck looks amazing.
  

• This short film about Doris Jones, a 90-year-old armchair archaeologist, made me teary.
  

• I'm bad about washing my face before bed. This incredibly calming video might inspire me to be better. All that dirt!
  

• Summer is over, boo hoo. Another nine months before we can do this.
  

• Those of you with the same chronic compulsion as me, click here.
  

• Kitty Spencer, Princess Diana's niece, modeling the new "Happy Leaf" necklace by Bulgari.
  

• This is such a wonderful way to preserve an old photograph. I love this artist's work!
  

• Antiques of the Week: This is a stunner for those of you who love the louche 70s. Also, I found cuff links for the gentleman who loves Paul Evans design.
