Right now, I’m coveting:

  • This sophisticated Diane von Furstenberg clutch. I’m planning to purchase it next month. (So excited!)
  • A pretty pitcher that looks even more gorgeous filled with a strawberry pink cocktail
  • A graphic crane-print dress to pair with flat sandals now and work-ready pumps this fall.
  • Art Deco earrings from Tory Burch
  • A quirky crab trinket box
  • This hue for weekday manicures
  • Silver flats with a small hint of gold at the heel (I ordered these on Tuesday and will let you know if they’re fabulous in person)

Friday Find Under $50

Zara clutch, $35.90

Contrary to popular advice, I don’t mind investing in a trendy statement piece when it’s something so perfect for my closet that a cheaper alternative just won’t do. My standout was a YSL arty ring long before Yves was dropped from the name. $195 was a lot to pay for a metal and glass cocktail ring (now it’s $290), but it was “the one” and I still wear it regularly. A metallic clutch (or a lucite one, for that matter) is not that type of purchase for me. I’d rather experiment with this budget-friendly Zara version.

Reminder! Win a pair of bangle bracelets from Sequin!

Right now, I’m coveting:

  • An easy shift dress in stripes, of course
  • A pretty porcelain tray to corral gems
  • A set of mint julep cups, just in time for the Kentucky Derby
  • Contrasting bowls stacked in the cupboard
  • The Egyptian-inspired print on this airy scarf
  • Mirrored shoes with a criss-cross ankle strap
  • A cheerful cherry red purse

Why don’t you…

Why don’t you…

  • Refresh your lingerie drawer by getting rid of anything that doesn’t make you feel sexy. Upgrade your basics and buy a few candy-colored sets (like this hot pink number). Protect your investment with a lingerie bag.
  • Pack a picnic basket and head off to a local park. Don’t forget to heed Monday’s advice. 
  • Stop lamenting rainy days. Usher in May flowers with a bright umbrella and wellies.
  • Experiment with spring’s shiniest trend with an affordable pair of heels or a clutch.
  • Visit your local nursery for an array of succulents. Plant a mini indoor garden to enjoy.

A small moment of peace from the past weekend. I A small moment of peace from the past weekend.

I feel like I’ve been doomscrolling since the news broke of SCOTUS’ decision to overturn Roe v. Wade. My emotions run the gamut from sadness to frustration to unadulterated rage. I’m deeply disgusted by conservatives and evangelicals, but especially by liberals who supported Bernie Sanders and refused to vote for Hillary Clinton at such a crucial moment in our history. Did you know that 12% of Sanders’ primary election supporters voted for Trump in the general election? In Wisconsin alone, 51,000 of them voted for Trump — a state Trump would win by just 22,000 votes. 

Your vote matters. It matters in national elections, statewide elections, and local elections. It’s crucial that Democrats organize as strategically as conservatives did and restore reproductive rights. 

In the meantime, donate your time, talent, or treasure to help those facing an unwanted pregnancy. @thecut has a great list on their site with organizations to support in states likely to prohibit abortion. I’ve donated to @plannedparenthoodwi.
Reveal day is finally here! It’s been a long pro Reveal day is finally here! It’s been a long process that started back in April 2020 with a kitchen ceiling leak that was attributed to water leaking from our tub faucet and working its way through the floor and into the kitchen. Our bathroom was never anything to look at (before photos on the feed), but the leak really accelerated our plans for a full bathroom renovation when timelines — and budgets — allowed. It feels a bit surreal to have it done and I don’t think I’ll ever stop admiring it whenever I walk past!

Head to the blog today to read about two headaches that came at the tail end of our main bathroom remodel.

I am just the happiest! I keep looking at this bat I am just the happiest! I keep looking at this bathroom and thinking how lucky we are that we were able to do this! It wasn’t always easy to navigate the stressful moments, but the end result is worth it. I feel like I’m at a luxury hotel every time I shower! (And it sure beats showering with the spiders in our [basically unfinished] basement bathroom. It was like camping in our own home for the past six weeks — and I very much hate camping!)

More photos to come!

The rest of the shower tile will be installed on Monday and then they’ll starting laying the floor tile. I can’t wait!
