Weekend Reading 5.2.26

The best new TV shows. An interview with the costume designer from Devil Wears Prada 2. How to wear culottes. New books to be excited about. “Stealth wealth is over and niche riche is in.” Everything we know about the Verity adaptation so far. Non-boring chicken breast recipes + easy weeknight dinners. Authors share their favorite classic novels. “Nobody reads anymore.” A few beautiful home tours. The best independent bookstores in America, the best spas in New York City, plus a slew of fantastic shopping finds, links, and more. Enjoy!

Everything I Read in April 2026

This was another great month of reading. I finished my friend Chassity’s book, Pink Sand Summer and really loved it. I read more non-fiction than usual. I finally tackled Project Hail Mary (very excited for the film!). Plus, some really good thrillers (omg, the new Sarah Pekkanen was my personal favorite — well worth pre-ordering!).

The Wednesday Ten, No. 3

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 share it on Instagram, but it has no real home. Maybe it’s a new launch, a really great podcast episode . . . maybe it’s an independent designer, a sale worth noting, or a must-have shopping find. It will be a different mix every week. You can read the first one here and the second one here.

Styling Last Week’s Best-Sellers, Vol. 2

We started something new last week: 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 always fun to see what pieces resonate most with you. Every Monday, I will choose three of the previous week’s favorite styles and show you how to style them. Today, we’re styling these fun lime green Tecovas sunglasses, this classic J.Crew long sleeve, and my very beloved Freda Salvador cobalt flats. PS – You can see last week’s post here.
