IN the vein of all the things I would have bought, there are two local Austin shopping events this weekend that I’m pretty excited about, and you should check out if you’re in town. Shaybazaar is a new site for ethically-sourced, handmade items. Kitty Cohen’s, if you’ve never been, is worth the visit alone: it’s…
During my austerity experiment aka spending ban, here are all the things I probably would have bought—and a couple of confessions! Another set of amazing Costco bath sheet towels, because I don’t wash mine enough (so soft, so good, ON SALE for only $26!) Supps from The Genius Brain (should that have counted as food?)…
Confession: I do not own cowboy boots. Yep, grew up in the Lone Star state. These are the boots I will buy, when they are available: They are from a new Austin-based company called Chisos that is run by a solo dude named Will who is—and I haven’t met him, so this is internet persona…
Finally! A discount code for my favorite Briidgs travel backpack: LYSSA for 25% off—the o.g. pack is on sale for just $99 right now! Y’all. After the almost-three-week long adventure last summer, this backpack has been everywhere with me for the past year: from long weekends skiing in Aspen to a few days on the…
Warning: we’re approaching cropped tie-front button-down tank top overload. BUT it’s gonna be summer forever in Austin so I’m buying another one and I don’t care. It’s an awesome color and I already love the fit of my other Sozy cropped tie-front button-down tank top plus it’s got different buttons and is slightly different so…
UPDATE! This suit is back and available here. Y’all. Putty. It’s not white, it’s not gray*, it’s the best summer color ever. White is so … white. Putty is super fresh, less prissy, and all around utilitarian and sexy. So. This suit set is from Elizabeth & Clarke’s summer suiting box. It’s available here, and…
Yoga is important to me from a physical and mental standpoint, but I admit I haven’t much gotten into the chakra part of yoga. I know the 7 chakras and I love when teachers bring them into class, but my own study has been minimal. So when Plant Therapy reached out and asked if I…
Today, Forever 21 launches a collab with CHEETOS. Friggin’ Flamin’ Hot Cheetos! My most favorite terrible-for-you food in the whole world. And the goods are actually cute! I am dying … I can’t tell if I’m excited or embarrassed to be so excited. CHEESY but hilarious. I am definitely too old for any of this……
the overview (activities!) / the eats The Fanny Packs Order ’em here. Will be worn at the wedding as well. A big hit, very convenient, and hilarious. I came up with the sayings after much internet research, but she has standard sayings you can use too. I filled them with only a few essentials at…
The last time I rounded up bikinis was a long time ago—and considering I lived at the beach for five years and was in a ‘kini at least 3 or 4 days a week, I’m basically an expert. I don’t live by the beach anymore, but am still just as obsessed with swimsuits! Have even…
