The Up Next Edit, Vol. 7

Admittedly, I’ve reached that point in the Charleston summer where I’ve all but given up on getting dressed. It somehow feels hotter with each passing day, and all I can think about is the return of layering. While this month’s edit includes plenty of pieces that could carry me through the remainder of the season, I couldn’t resist letting my anticipation for cooler weather get the best of me (hence the suede jackets in the middle of August.) Lately, I’ve felt incredibly inspired by Grace to embrace a little more texture, color, and pattern in the way I get dressed.

Styling Last Week’s Best-Sellers, Vol. 17

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 this chic Farm Rio lace top, this gorgeous black sateen dress, and these super cute mesh flats — the brand will surprise you!

The Wednesday Ten, No. 18

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.

Late Summer Under $200 Edit

We are back with our biweekly edit of under-$200 favorites. There are so many great pieces in this week’s installment; I hope you enjoy! I am a broken record about this, but if you are new here, I have a “great style under $200” section on my ShopMy page that I update multiple times a week, if not every day! Both Carly and I spend quite a bit of time tracking down pieces at this price point that feel well-made, special, and fun. I aim to share a roundup like this every two weeks (the last installment is right here) as there are so many great items out there that won’t break the bank. Right now, a few personal favorites are:
