The Wednesday Ten, No. 5
Every Wednesday, I’ll bring you a list of ten things that I think you should know about. I’m excited about this. I often stumble across something interesting and will share it on Instagram, but it has no real place to live. Maybe it’s a new launch, a really great podcast episode . . . maybe it’s an independent designer, a sale you should know, or a must-have shopping find. It will be a different mix every week. You can read last week’s installment right this way.

Styling Last Week’s Best-Sellers, Vol. 4
Every week on Instagram, I share the previous week’s best-selling products. You can always see those collections, saved here on my ShopMy Page. It’s fun to see what pieces resonate most with you. To build on our weekly best-sellers series) we wanted to introduce a styling element. Every Monday, I will choose three of the previous week’s favorite styles and show you how to wear them. Today, we’re styling this pretty white mini dress, this simple (but very chic) brown sundress, and my (very beloved) Rhone button-up shirt. PS – You can see last week’s post here.

Carly’s Cut, Vol. 9
April, oh April! A month that certainly left its mark on me. The past thirty days were perfect in so many ways—perfect new additions to my wardrobe and home, perfect movies, meals, concerts, and perfect adventures. It feels hard to imagine surpassing the happiness this month brought into my life, but I know things will only get better. I’m typing this from the floor of my soon-to-be old apartment on the final night of a chapter that’s nearly closed. I have so much to look forward to this summer, and if this past month was any indication of how good things can be, then I know I’ll soon be drowning in the riches of life.
