The artists are making their lives harder.
there's nothing like a statement jacket, an all-day solo date, and creating what you were made to create. (Noticing Vol. 74)
On Wednesdays, I share a list of things I’m seeing, liking, thinking about, etc. This is my weekly bulletin board!
DATING LATELY: Okay, I’m diving into it – what has dating been like this summer? Actual details and learnings on how to have fun in the often treacherous modern dating world (maybe even some soft launch pictures 😉) in this post:
100% COTTON SWEATER SET: In my cart – can transition from summer to fall. So cute and under $150. Love the colorway.
THE MOST EXHAUSTING PROFESSION: If you are a creative person, you know this all too well. The spinning of your wheels, the debate of strategy, the procrastination that you disguise to yourself as “planning.” I am speaking to myself. This quote encapsulates it – just make something. Just make a move! Life is way more satisfying this way.
IDEAL DATE: Spent the weekend with two of my muses. The Mary Oliver documentary was fantastic. I’ve never had such a kindred-spirited experience as weeping together in a theater with women who I know could be my friends. It can now be streamed wherever you are — a great shot in the arm! Second, this audiobook by Suleika Jaouad. Listened while browsing the MET — but it is very good anywhere. Real tangible prompts for writing and insight on the practice of keeping a journal.
DRESS BRAND WITH GOOD STUFF UNDER $500: I happened upon this brand in SoHo recently. I love the structured style and quality feel. I was relieved to see that most price tags were under $500. Why is every good dress over $1000 lately?!
Love this blue button-down dress pictured above
IN CASE YOU HAVE SOME CASH: Speaking of expensive things … a few treasures I’ve seen lately!!! LMK if you order. Shopping vicariously.
Blush pink dress for fall — a forever in your wardrobe dress
These bandanas don’t seem to be going out of style anytime soon. Need to pay a visit to this store while in the city. Speaking of bandana print – this under $200 wrap skirt stopped me in my tracks.
ZEBRA IS BACK: Willing to try in the form of these perfect flats.
A SPECIAL NEW TO ME BRAND: Got coffee with Olivia from Maison Venu yesterday. Look at her stuff! She’s the real deal. These tablecloths … artistry!
NOTHING LIKE A STATEMENT JACKET: My favorite thing to purchase is a perfect jacket. Feast your eyes on these …
BIG SUNNIES: Seeing bug eyes — a dupe for less.
PERFECT WHITE SHIRT: Dreamy collar – so many compliments!
THANK YOU FOR THE LOVE: Continually shocked at how missable miracles seem to be. Hiding in our daily! I enjoyed writing this:
Sending love!
