Texted my therapist this morning to ask if her other clients were also experiencing heightened sensitivity and an urgent need to spring-clean their lives. She said yes—her virtual sofa’s been booked solid with emergency sessions. Maybe it’s cosmic, maybe it’s collective burnout—or maybe it’s the sudden, almost spiritual need to purge and start fresh... perfectly timed with Shopbop’s biggest sale of the year (up to 25% off with the code STYLE)! The kind of sale that makes you want to clear out your closet, recalibrate your entire aesthetic, and reemerge with only things that feel right. Big feelings, big energy, big discounts! Highlights? The universally flattering Janessa Leone hat, above, these suede Vince (Miu Miu-ish) sneakers, this Ulla Johnson bikini, these mesh Staud ballerinas, this Clare V tote, this Ossa cell-phone wristlet, this Line & Dot cardigan, and this sleek Moon River smocked dress.Think of it as a reset, a reckoning—and, for me, a very full cart!

There are certain moments that beg to be bottled—when the sun is warm enough to lull you poolside at Colombe d'Or, but not quite hot enough to stretch out on a chaise lounge. The air is laced with just enough orange blossom to make you pause mid-thought and drift toward an open window, breathing in spring properly. However, if you're anything like me, that’s when the rigorous mental gymnastics begin: plotting how to be in this exact spot come summer and packing my suitcase piece-by-piece with the kind of meticulous focus usually reserved for spreadsheets. While that moment can’t be bottled, it was captured—above and below—in the South of France, earlier this week. Merci beaucoup! Also very conveniently for me, Net-A-Porter just launched a tightly edited collection of summertime pieces that feel made for this exact kind of daydream—effortless, elegant, and ready for warm-weather wherever. So here's what is coming with: these embellished Gianvito Rossi embellished shoes, this puff-sleeved Aje perfection, this macrame and tulle Zimmermann, this statement-making Cult Gaia clutch, and this Farm Rio print skirt.

I posted a vibrant dispatch from the South of France via Instagram Stories—blue-chip galleries, a long lunch somewhere deeply, deliciously old-world, the kind of scene that should spark questions about truffle-laced dishes and charming art-filled hideaways. Instead? My DMs are a chorus of where’s your top from? It's H&M. Years old. But since that’s the discourse, I figured I’d share some fresh H&M finds—plus other chic scores—that you’ll no doubt be asked about in the near future: the summer in the South-of-France lace set, the (Chloe-like) twill jacket, the J.Crew organza silk dress, the knit Valentino clutch, this studded top by The Great, and this Roxanne Assoulin necklace. And for those actually curious about the food, art, and whereabouts, all will be revealed in this weekend’s Substack.

Spring is typically the universe’s way of saying, Plot twist! Only, I've felt that way since January 7! Then throw in moving, a major solar eclipse, and let's just say things have been interesting. I'm not sure what's in the air, except transformation, and honestly, I’d like to be dressed for the occasion. Enter Sézane's spring lineup that accommodates my need for a sartorial security blanket (denim, always) while nudging me toward something fresh (florals, because, well, photosynthesis). Crisp jeans and a classic pinstriped blazer to keep me grounded and a vibrant print wrap skirt and matching top to remind me that change—like spring itself—can be beautiful. If the world is blooming, I might as well dress like it! I'm also finessing this and this!

I love a bag charm. There’s just something about the way a little trinket dangling from a strap can completely transform a simple bag—taking it from basic to playful, or just a little bit extra, depending on the mood. But, of course, I know myself. The love is currently intense but potentially fleeting. The cycle is inevitable--and so is what's on my bag: the latest Clare V lip fob on my canvas Kule, below. Speaking of things I’m currently loving (but may not ever abandon): the Eliou summer-ready shell charm, above, my crisp new Madewell jeans (perfectly creamy, not stark white!), the Eliou choker, below, my Dorsey paracord charm necklace (act fast!), Gap's leopard print denim mini and Chloe-inspired flip flops, Pistola's short sleeve knit t-shirt (my niece stole mine and I want it back!), and the red(!) Adidas' sneakers that I spied on the plane from LA to Austin yesterday! Happy Weekend!

It must be spring break in LA. The telltale signs are everywhere: a last-minute dinner reservation at the Beverly Hills Hotel is actually possible, Sunset to the 405 is suspiciously smooth, and my Instagram feed is a non-stop scroll of sun-drenched beaches and crochet (above). Not all of us have fled to Cabo or St. Barts, but who says we can’t fake that getaway vibe? Just throw on a glossy raincoat (below) over a pair of shorts or an Alex Mill windbreaker over a mini skirt a la Leandra Cohen, or a whisper of lace (oooh la la, Sea New York!) where clothing should be—and voilà, we’re living the balmy life right here at home. Other ideas: the Chloe jellies you can actually wear right now or the red flats pictured below, the Saint Laurent wood hobo bag, pictured (or this less expensive version), this sleek Theory boatneck top I promise will be on constant repeat, the lace Zara blouse that, if you squint, looks like Chanel, this striped freshly-cut Sold Out NYC t-shirt, the embellished Oseree one-piece (now with jeans and a blazer!).

London-based Lucy Williams has a severe case of the blues--and it's very contagious, because I just became infected! (Vogue calls this fashionable hue Pacific Ocean blue, just FYI.) I now need her J.Crew blue barn jacket, above, no doubt inspired by The Row's Spring 2025 workwear jacket (The Reformation makes a spot-on dupe and so does Alex Mill), her Mango outfit-punctuating ballet flats, and her Still Here New York sweatshirt, below. I also want to sing the blues in this, this and this!
