This is what I normally text my friends after being an unintentional lapse in replying, and that’s what writing this newsletter feels like today. Apologies for the hiatus - nothing like a move and a sick toddler to throw you off balance. I’m happy to report I’m writing to you from my office, complete with a new desk chair. In the words of Carrie Bradshaw, I’ve been cheating on fashion with furniture, so not a ton of purchases on my end but pretty much every retailer is having a sale right now, in case you and your inbox haven’t noticed.
I wish I could say I was more excited by these sales, but I find myself reverting to my closet wishlist before I check out on a cart full of items that don’t necessarily suit my needs right now (like this Versace bikini), but I have still found lots of fun things.. so let’s have a look
Shopbop- the Jil Sander flats from a few letters ago are now half off. A pretty Proenza cardigan because yes, it’s summer, but depending on where you’re traveling nights can be chilly and not to point out the obvious but airplanes are f%cking freezing. I’ve shared this under $100 tote before but it feels even more timely right now. Perfect for a beach trip or even just making an all black fit feel more summery. Okay so maybe we should cancel our Row jelly pre-orders? Have you heard they’re breaking? These are a nice alternative and to be honest better match the ones I got my daughter.
FWRD/Revolve- Not on sale but….If you love the vibe of white eyelet dresses but want something a little sportier, these shorts are the perfect antidote. Speaking of white dresses, this is CHIC. These Khaite sandals are a dream. (btw always use the codes FWRD10 and CANDY for a little discount on these sites!)
Net-A-Porter- If you, like me, have noticed that every swimsuit on the planet is designed to show your entire butt and don’t necessarily want that on a family trip with your in-laws, these Hunza. G one pieces are your friend. Ditto for this Zimmerman cover-up. For all you brides, this white Coperni slip is gorgeous. I felt like the shoe sale selection was lacking overall, minus these Manolos and all the Nikes if you need a fresh pair of gym shoes.
MyTheresa- These kinda crazy but still seemingly practical JW. Anderson platforms are on sale and I am tempted. This Jil Sander bag would pair perfectly with a white sundress. Also if you’re still not over the Barbie movie just yet, this Margiela piece is for you.
Moda Operandi-This bag for a fringe moment. I really wish these sandals were still available in my size. An Isabel Marant dress that looks super flattering. If you’re lucky enough to be going to Taylor Swift’s European tour, these gold boots would be perfect. These wedges are giving Clueless in the best way. Personally, I’m getting this dress.
Luisa Via Roma- This sale is super random but I have this and this in my cart.
Recent purchases:
I get the Lisa Yang hype! This is slouchy and cool but still elegant. I will pair with jeans and these shorts.
I have worn my black sambas from the previous Wales Bonner x Adidas collab a ton, so I got the yellow pair (lots of sizes left as of writing this) and the blue/white. These *happen* to be the colors of the team my husband works for so I’ll be wearing them on repeat this fall.
cropped tanks- My beloved white tank needs to be replaced and I found the Wardrobe Hailey Bieber one here for half off.
serving spoons - I plan on doing a lot more hosting in our new space and these are so happy. Would also make a great hostess gift.
I went to a very fun Rixo event the other day to preview their new collection. Their collab with Ciao Lucia is gorgeous! I walked away with this little black number which I plan on wearing with my favorite Miu Miu boots (see below) but I think the silky blue long sleeve I tried on is worthy of a euro summer trip or a nice family vacation! (my summer will look like more of the latter).
okay, that’s all for me today! thank you for reading and as always please share with a fellow fashion-lover and tap the heart below if you enjoyed reading.
