Just Sent No.63
One thing that will instantly get me is a shoe from a shoe store. What do you mean? Well, a shoe from a normal shoe store (for my Atlanta followers, I’m talking specifically about Abbadabba’s, and for my New Yorkers, Tip Top Shoes on the Upper West Side).
The shoes at said type of store are always from a heritage brand—Dansko, Worishofer, Birkenstock, Converse, Vans. This pair of Kork-Ease falls into that category. And happens to look just like the APC wedges. I wore them for my walk last week; no blisters, no complaints! Size down.
the best Buck Mason tank, a MHL skirt I’d been curious about Saie City Set since they launched it, and yesterday I confirmed that it is, in fact, worth being curious about. I bought it and put it to the test yesterday for an outside event, and it completed the task wonderfully. I don’t wear that much makeup, especially in the summer, but my blush, bronzer, concealer, and mascara looked as good when I came home as they did when I left, and usually it’s all disappeared by the time I get to the event.
I can cook, but I would never call myself a cook. And for that reason, my meals are usually simple, so having good ingredients is key. I’ve been buying Brightland for years. This winter, the Sumo was the star of the kitchen, but the garlic is always a favorite. This duo looks good. I was excited when they reached out with a code! 15% off with LULU15.
Finding 100% cotton underwear is oddly difficult. Jungmaven makes my favorite for wearing under dresses and baggy clothes, but Iris—a new brand—just launched some that feel more like my other favorites from Petite Bateau.
A striped shirt, as you know, is an essential for me. I bought this in London. I wanted one that was a little more oversized than my usual Saint James.
Speaking of shoe stores, I used to wear Dansko clogs all the time. But recently, I haven’t found myself reaching for them because, and contradictory maybe to the love I professed above, I don’t like the color options at the moment—and the plastic bottom really throws off the entire outfit. Last summer, Walker got a pair of clogs from this brand, and I noticed they had a Dansko-esque pair.
A few things I’m enjoying:
The Alex Mill weekend tote continues to be my travel bag. I put a tote and my purse inside it and had no issues carrying it. I especially like how it snaps around the sides.
My mom and sister both (somehow) decided that two of my Finding Ferdinand lipsticks would now be theirs. We’re all in! (Clay, Raspberry, Sheer Black)
I’m back to my Soft Services buffing bar after multiple trips—it works. I swear by it and the lotion; as someone with KP, it totally got rid of it.
Tata Harper’s 25% off sale starts today. As you know, I swear by the cleanser and mask, and just started using the eye cream.
The Madewell in my neighborhood changes what’s in the window pretty often, and something usually catches my eye. Here are a few things I noticed this week.
Need to check out Abbadabba's ASAP!!
