Welcome to Sunday Pearls, our weekly roundup of what we’re loving right now:

Have you started the newest episodes of Emily in Paris yet? Frederic magazine just shared a look at the gorgeous locations featured in this season (including a trip to Rome!).

We also enjoyed this deep dive into luxury hotels featured on the small and big screen.

In London or heading there this week? Design darling Matilda Goad created a super chic hardware store pop-up in Notting Hill; it’s only open through Sept. 26 so head over soon!

Fall is such a lovely time to visit the Hudson Valley. Emma Austen Tuccillo, creator of And North, a curated guide to Upstate New York, just shared her Hudson Valley favorites with YOLO Journal here.

It’s just about last call to experience Jenny Holzer: Light Line at the Guggenheim – the exhibition closes Sept. 29.

We’re always adding a few new books to the coffee table…right now our Amazon cart includes: Helen Frankenthaler: Painting Without Rules by Douglas Dreishpoon, Cabana Anthology: The Anniversary Edition by Martina Mondadori, David Hockney: Paper Trails by Shai Baitel, New English Interiors by Elizabeth Metcalfe, Alpine Style by Kathryn O’Shea-Evans and Il Dolce Far Niente by Lucy Laucht.

A few fall fashion finds we’re considering: this wool wrap trench coat, this embroidered dress, this classic cashmere crewneck, these cap-toe flats, these jeans (additional washes and sizes here) and this ring from a favorite French fine jewelry brand.

Michelin announced another round of top hotel picks this week under its new “key” rating system; a few of the latest U.S. additions include Wildflower Farms in Upstate New York, The Celestine in New Orleans and Blackberry Farm in Tennessee. You can see all of the Michelin Key hotels in the U.S. here, and learn more about the ranking system and international Key hotels here.
