The Wednesday Ten, No. 4

Every Wednesday, I’ll bring you a list of ten things that I think you should know about. This is my favorite part of my job, to be honest. Finding and sharing cool stuff that you hopefully haven’t seen elsewhere. I often stumble across something interesting and share it on Instagram, but it has no real home. Maybe it’s a new launch, an A++ podcast episode . . . maybe it’s an independent designer, an artist, 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, the second one here, and the third one here.

Chic Spring Finds Under $200

We are back with our biweekly edit of under-$200 favorites. There are so many fun pieces in this week’s round-up, from mesh loafers to a big sale on jewelry, and more. 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.

Styling Last Week’s Best-Sellers, Vol. 3

We’ve started something new: 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 (I share these to Instagram every Friday), 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 style them. Today, we’re styling this white lace top, these comfy pull-on jeans, and this pretty wicker bag.

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!).
