Happy Saturday!
WHAT’S ON:
It’s Memorial Day Weekend and the official start to the summer! We’re starting the season with a Memorial Day Sale offering 30% off select product, ending Monday, May 29th (my birthday!) at 10 am EST. It’s a great chance to try new styles or grab something you’ve had your eye on. 30% is the deepest sale percentage we ever do or will ever do. The margin on our clothes simply can’t allow more! If you’re already a customer, you can tell by the quality. And if it’s your first time purchasing, this is the perfect opportunity to see for yourself!
The change of season has me excited for NEW NEW NEW! New prints, new styles, new base cloths. We focused so much in the first half of the year on restocks, and we’re ready to switch it up again. I have about 8 new prints I can’t wait to put into work for late 2023-2024. June is the time of year we begin focusing on the end of the year and the beginning of the next, and every year you learn how to better approach each season! I’m definitely excited to develop a new fall sweater ASAP! And to knock it out of the park on an amazing new Holiday print. And every summer has a last minute surprise throw in that even I don’t know yet! So take this weekend to scoop something up you’re used to already!
WEEKLY INSPIRATION:
I’m a Barefoot Contessa fan like everyone else (prefer pre 2010s) but Alison Roman has become a new favorite in the last few years. Her style of cooking just makes you think about flavors, ingredient quantities, and preparations differently. Her new Summer pasta salad from this week will for sure be on my June checklist.
I mentioned I was reading Custom of the Country the other week. Sofia Coppola just announced she’s releasing a scrapbook of everything she kept from her decades of filmmaking. It’s on preorder and I don’t know if I’ve ever preordered something faster! (As someone who asks people to preorder on an almost weekly basis)
Our Wednesday post this week covered Warm Weather Splurges. And a few weeks ago on instagram someone asked for raffia bags to refresh for summer. I was doing a little further digging this week and came across some great options on Matches that won’t break the bank and offer something a little different. This and it’s larger version are fun and a (in the best summer way) little impractical. And I do love a black summer bag. This seems like a workhorse. This last one is a bit kooky & more expensive, but I’m always drawn to the combination of white, green, and yellow. I would wear it on a summer day with a Paola, which also happens to be on sale today. ;)
Finally, if you don’t already subscribe (or haven’t seen me repost constantly) Airmail is a Saturday newsletter, edited by Graydon Carter (famed ex-editor of Vanity Fair) and covers foreign and domestic art, politics, literature, fashion, travel, crime…. etc. It’s the best way to start your Saturday. They’re currently collaborating with Hotel du Cap at the Cannes Film Festival, and even though my literal wedding was last Saturday, seeing the collaboration last weekend gave me ultimate fomo.
