Happy Friday! A few friends and I are apple picking on Saturday and I’m so excited! I’ve never been before, and it seems like a fun way to get into the Fall spirit. I’ll just have to figure out what I’m going to do with that many apples. Apple pie, maybe? I hope you all are doing a few fun things this weekend to enjoy the season as well. Here are a few great links if you’re looking for some inspiration this weekend:

• Blair looks absolutely stunning in this red outfit! It makes me want to pull out my red trench coat from this outfit.
• I’ve been following Kelly for years because of all her fun DIY projects, especially during this time of year. It’s really fun to see her little baby Arlo make an appearance in many of her Halloween costume posts this year. This DIY family bubble bath costume is just so cute!
• I’ve been wanting to give my room a bit of a makeover, and I really loved all these ideas for a new headboard.
• Keiko is a master when it comes to makeup. Check out her roundup of Halloween makeup ideas.
• I love the plaid blazer trend that’s really in this season. I’m going to try to find one in a thrift store, but these also caught my eye: One//Two//Three
• Lisbon is one of my favorite cities and I loved reliving my visit there through Carrie’s various travel guides.
• This roasted cauliflower salad recipe looks so yummy!

I hope you are all having a fantastic start to the weekend! I plan to take mine pretty slow, and make time to catch up with friends here and there. If you find yourself with some downtime, you should take some time to click through this week’s Weekend Link Roundup:

• If you’re planning an extended trip to Italy, or just like to daydream, check out Bri’s Traveling Through Italy Favorites post on Design Love Fest for some great recommendations.

• You should try this Rickrack blouse DIY from Oh Joy! if you’re looking to update some old pieces in your wardrobe.
• I absolutely love how Karen styled this vintage grey blazer! This type of piece can definitely be a fall staple!
• I’ve been feeling overwhelmed by all the news of natural disasters, and want to make a difference. However, it’s been hard to figure out the best way to help with all that’s going on. If you’re like me and want to help the many areas impacted but don’t know where to start, check out Grace Bonney’s awesome roundup of how you can help support storm/disaster relief.
