Weekend Update

Sale PSA: A Uniqlo Heattech turtleneck, now under $20, a ribbed cashmere hoodie from Nordstrom, now $194, fun Nike Air Max Dias, now 30% off, a fleece cardigan from Madewell, now 30% off, a wool scarf/hat/everything from Icebreaker, now $21, and these Everlane thong sandals (I know I’ve mentioned before but now they are on further discount – size up 1/2 size), now just $44.

1. This week, sharing this pretty Flamenco bag, from Loewe.

I love this bag! Very much, but I just recently bought my Puzzle. The leather is so soft and luscious and I think it is the perfect size to hold essentials without being to too small. And color. I’ve been low key checking on it and it seems like Farfetch has stabilized prices on Loewe (there used to be some good deals cause of currency) – it still ships tax free however, and it’s a lovely holiday gift. Just a suggestion!

2. Thank you R, for sharing this short article about Japan’s royal family. I am fascinated by this family and I think they should make a prestige drama ala The Crown but in Japan. Right?

3. A great article about the NY Times about how Covid-19 might change workwear, forever: Goodbye Blazers, Hello Coatigans.

4. A fun piece via T&C, about Marc Jacobs and his love for jewelry.

5. This week I read Sea Wife, by Amity Gaige.

I’m not sure how to describe this book. It’s a book about marriage, written from dual POVs from a couple who decide to take their two children out on sea for a year. It is expertly and beautifully written. And while not a “thriller” per say, the plot does move…and there are several surprises. If you are looking for a gorgeous novel about marriage and travel and motherhood and don’t mind a “slightly” slower plot, I highly recommend Sea Wife.

    YES! I would watch a prestige drama about Japan’s royal family.

    Have you tried any of the Everlane men’s flannel chore jackets or heavyweight overshirts? I’m wondering how they compare the to J Crew chamois shirt–which I ordered during the sale after seeing here and like a lot!

      Ooh yay I’m glad you like it! I like mine too.

      No, but have you looked at LL Bean? I ordered a chamois (women’s) but it doesn’t ship until a few weeks. I’ll update how it is!

    I love this bag! I even like it in black because it’s just so casual and perfect for daily use with or without kids! Do you think it will ever go on sale?
