boden hour
Wednesday, March 30
I was delighted to discover Boden's new summer drop: a surprisingly good, spot-on mix of fun, bohemian prints with an Elder Statesman meets Lemlem meets La Double J vibe! Case in point: this ruffle dress, this striped maxi, this palm print cashmere sweater, this vibrant shirt dress, and this floral mini!

rad ref
Monday, March 28
Right after I mistook a friend's Reformation top, above, for Khaite at a party the other night, I bee-lined online to buy one, but alas, it's sold out in black, so I bought the white version that will get me through summer and then some!

bling it on
Friday, March 25
Call me crazy, but I think the best time to bust out the bling is with a bikini. It's so unexpected! Plus, it can distract from, um, other shortcomings! Most importantly, I paid to play, right? Of course, I'm talking rocks within reason. I love Rocky Barnes' mix of Marysia scallops and a Brent Neale multi-stone mushroom.
veja x marni
Wednesday, March 23
No surprise that the just-launched Veja x Marni sneakers are running out of stock fast! You can still find sizes here and here! Marni reinvents Veja's minimalist silhouette with playful, hand-crafted looking scribbles, and the result is a statement sneaker for the books. Bonus: they're environmentally friendly: the soles are crafted from 31% Amazonian rubber, 22% rice waste, and 12% recycled rubber, and the laces are 100% recycled polyester.
who's who
Monday, March 21
The other day I showed my kids a photograph of my identical twin sister and me celebrating our 5th birthday. I asked them if they could identify me in the picture. And neither of them could! I was astonished, to say the least! Now, I wonder if they'd be able to discern who's in the above picture. Making it trickier: we both have the same St. Roche sweater and JW Anderson dupes by Zara. What do you think?
a lot of ulla
Friday, March 18
This Ulla Johnson swimsuit ticks every box for me: sexy, flattering, statement-making, and beach-to-street versatile (below). Plus, the batik print speaks to my heritage. So, what more could I want? Perhaps the jumpsuit version as well (last pic)?! With a blazer, sneakers or sandals or heels--or all on multiple and myriad occasions! So much to love! Happy Weekend, you all!
