But first: a designer-collab coat to grab before it's gone

here's the plan

You worked hard enough this week. Let us plan your weekend…

  1. 1.

    It’s official: You can now see everything. That’s right, Nathan Fielder and Lance Oppenheim’s documentary on Elizabeth Holmes is in theaters. The year’s most hyped doc (OK, movie) follows the king of mind-bending meta comedy as he moves in with the Theranos scammer, her partner, and their two young kids before she starts her federal prison sentence. The result? Critics are calling it “more shocking, twistier, thornier, and revealing than billed” and “the weirdest time you can have at the movies with your clothes on.” Some even think it could be the first doc nominated for Best Picture. TBD on that, but one thing’s certain: You’ll have to see it to believe it.

  2. 2.

    Sweater Weather is back, and these are the season’s biggest knitwear trends, from sweaters cosplaying as sweatshirts to actually groundbreaking florals. Pardon us while we live in No. 4.

  3. 3.

    Lasagna on a Friday? Or, let’s be real, any day? Laughable. Unless you try this three-ingredient hack, which gets dinner on the table in under 30 minutes and might be the most genius use of ravioli ever. No, really.

  4. 4.

    You’ve seen Kate Berlant steal scenes in approximately everything (think: Nobody Wants This, The Other Two). Now she gets the whole stage in her HBO comedy-special debut, Parmesan, which, despite the name, isn’t about cheese. Instead, she covers “sex, anesthesia, and Uncle Fester,” whether she’ll have kids (maybe, “as a joke”), and her future career (“robot shoeshine”) — all delivered with her singularly silly physicality and her stream-of-consciousness style. Best of all? A total of zero men offering Offensive Takes No One Asked For.

  5. 5.

    You’ve added shaggy rugs, cashmere throws, and woodsy candles — yet your home still isn’t as cozy as you’d like. The culprit? You’re probably breaking this one lighting rule, which has nothing to do with Bare Bulbs or Big Lights.

Psst... See what else is happening this weekend so you never miss a moment.

Happy (almost) weekend. Maybe it’s motherhood, but these days I’m more about going with the flow than scheduling everything. My planner, which sits empty, is proof. So here’s what’s on the docket this weekend — depending on how my 5-month-old son is vibing:
