EDITOR’S NOTE

Happy Sunday. I spent the weekend soaking up some more summer at the Jersey Shore, doing my best to ignore the fact that we are practically halfway through August. A few other things keeping me distracted?

• This gripping new thriller about a mysterious vigilante in 1970s New York City, which reviews have called an “unputdownable paean to female rage.” I can confirm: I have not put it down. 

• I’m breaking out one of my go-to vintage bags, which makes any outfit look more expensive. It’s the perfect hint of fall for my still-very-much-summer getups, and feels straight out of Daisy Jones & The Six. 

• I’ll eat slice after slice of this absurdly easy and dangerously good zucchini bread. I’ve already made it twice in the past week — and I’ll probably make it again tomorrow.

• I’ll scroll Pinterest for ways to work this whimsical motif into my apartment decor. Look at that bathroom and tell me your inner child isn’t screaming.

• This Tiny Desk Concert from one of my favorite new artists of the past year. As one commenter put it, “she’s my Princess Diana.”
