Sale PSA: Chic flat leather sandals from Aeyde, now 30% off, a cashmere deep v-neck from Khaite, now 60% off, and a great denim shirt from Madewell, now just $35 with code MAJOR.
1. This week, sharing a sale find, these wedges from Chloe.
These are still full price on Net-A-Porter (and most sites). I haven’t bought Chloe shoes in quite some time – they always look nice but I have a hard time paying full price (especially when See by Chloe seems to look quite the same)? I think this is one of those useful, comfortable pieces though that works hard in your closet.
2. An interesting piece, via the NYT, about the Gap/Yeezy/Balenciaga collaboration. The details are fascinating! Especially about the samples.
3. I loved this article, via Elle, about the boots which changed Candace Bushnell’s life. Now I want patent Manolo boots!
4. This was a very well done, if heartbreaking piece, via the NYT again, about the life and death of Paul Auster.
5. This week I read Sparring Partners, by John Grisham.
You know, sometimes I’m just in the mood for a thriller, but one where the wife didn’t kill the husband and/or switch bodies with his mistress or whatever – in those cases I usually turn to Stephen King, and at times, John Grisham. I haven’t read a Grisham for a while but when I heard these were novellas, I was interested! And they are good! And quite frankly better than a lot of the commercial fiction out there. If you’re looking for a lighter thriller with some meat for a summer read, I recommend Sparring Partners.
