11 Summer Spritzer Cocktail Recipes
Happy Friday! This post is originally from 2020 (hence the pic on my cute little porch in Brooklyn!) but I found myself referencing it last weekend and wanted to republish it.
My Skincare Recovery Kit
Over the past year and a half, I’ve dipped my toe into doing slightly more invasive things to my skin, namely micro-needling and the Clear & Brilliant laser. I’m going to write a big post about these things in next Monday’s Substack (you can also reference last year’s post!), but in the meantime I want to talk about what I do after a treatment. After something like microneedling, your skin is very red for a few days. It’s sensitive and vulnerable! My facialist says “no actives for five days!!!!” and truthfully, sometimes I go longer than that, just because my skin still doesn’t feel fully like its best self.
The Wednesday Ten, No. 15
Every Wednesday, I’ll bring you a list of ten things that I think you should know about. I’m excited for this. I often stumble across something interesting and will share it to 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, an artist, or a must-have shopping find. It will be a different mix every week. You can read last week’s installment here.
Carly’s Guide to a Bedroom Refresh
Refreshing a bedroom—let alone furnishing one almost entirely from scratch—can feel like an overwhelming undertaking. Ahead of my move into a new apartment, I found myself doing exactly that for the first time. Rather than trying to solve the room all at once, I broke it down into a series of layers: first the bed frame, then the mattress and pillows, followed by the bedding, and finally the art and finishing details that brought the space to life.
Styling Last Week’s Best-Sellers, Vol. 13
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. Each Monday, I will choose three of the previous week’s favorite styles and show you how to wear them. Today, we are styling these fun red Staud shorts, this easy-breezy smocked maxi dress from Tuckernuck, and these funky-but-still-neutral raffia wedges.
