I feel like I’ve finally come to my senses when it comes to my style, and have found myself genuinely reinvigorated by getting dressed again. There’s something to be said about downsizing—both in space and in wardrobe—and the way it forces you to take stock of what you already have and how best to make use of it. I’ve become far more attentive to the gaps that exist in my closet, and even more thoughtful about what ultimately earns a place within it.
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 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 or a must-have shopping find. It will be a different mix every week. You can read last week’s installment here.
Nitro cold brew on demand? Yes please! Here is a very detailed review of my new cold coffee machine.
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 are styling these chic silky pants, this fun graphic tee, and this beautiful printed Staud dress. PS – for more of this, you can see last week’s post here.
Melissa French Gates, continuing to do the most. Everything we know about the Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo adaptation (I’m over the moon about this news). What to stream this month. Tips for dressing for the summer heat. The new wave of loneliness influencers (seems a little aspirational tbh). What to read this June. North America’s 50 best restaurants. The best way to handle someone who won’t stop kicking your airplane seat. Easy weeknight dinners. Plus so much more, and some great shopping finds. Enjoy the list!
