I’m spending the next week in Italy to kick off a busy stretch of travel and wedding weekends for the next month. Naturally, my head has been full of packing lists, dress codes & how to pull together so many looks without buying all new. A lot of re-wearing will be happening…more on that soon. That said, I’ve been doing a lot of Pinterest scrolling, browsing & shopping for clients that has got me inspired (and excited) for the next few weeks.
In the meantime, I wanted to do a little check-in to share a few things from this week: a pared-down list of Memorial Day sales actually worth shopping, some favorite May purchases, and a little peek at what I’ve been wearing in Italy so far.
Memorial Day Sales worth noting:
Net-a-Porter is up to 50% off. Worth browsing for wardrobe staples, chic swim & endless amounts of Khaite on sale—like this dress.
Posse is 70% off. Run!
Leset, one of my favorite brands for lounge, is 20% off. I own so many pieces from the brand, but a couple of my personal standouts: this pant (w/ its matching tee) & this pair of pajamas — a brand classic. On my personal wishlist is this set & this short.
Jenni Kayne is 20% off (almost everything)
The Violet Grey sale is a must-browse. A great time to snag some of my favorites like this mascara (the only one that I use), this contour stick & this body hydrator (for the best glowy summer skin)—amongst so many other favorites that I have in my beauty bag.
Moda Operandi is up to 50% off. Browse for great sandals, wedding guest dresses & summer staples.
On the theme of shopping, here’s a couple of my recent purchases from May that I’m really enjoying…current obsessions, if you will?
The Row India 10.00 Bag — I debated getting this bag for a while and went to look at it in person a million times. The short review—it’s perfect. A great bag size for everyday, easy to travel with & it fits so much. A great investment piece that’s classic & can truly be styled with everything. I love that it’s more under the radar and doesn’t have a ton of hardware. Worth every penny.
Victoria Beckham eyeliner — A game-changing eyeliner for me, it’s really all I need for my eyes at this point. Currently loving shade Cinnamon.
My new Neous heels — You’ve seen me posting these, but they’ve quickly become my most worn heel, which means I need them in more colors. Currently 20% off through Monday with code ENJOY20.
Italy Travel Diary (so far)
Now a little update from my travels. We arrived in Siena on Thursday which is the cutest town. Definitely touristy, but so much culture & incredible food. We’re here for a family wedding just outside of Siena at a venue that I’ve had on a bucket list—so, I’m very excited to be here. It’s been chilly, so I’ve been wearing lots of layers and low-effort outfits that still feel elevated. Here’s a little travel diary from the past few days & a peek at what I’ve been wearing.
