can i have it?
spring has sprung but we’re still wearing monochrome black. a few of these items serve as great lead-ins to hot, sunny summer months. think of this as my Bday Wishlist (it’s May 31 if you want to send a card BTW). i confess, i went ahead and purchased a few of these.
cheetah rug
this rug has been in my cart forever. i know the whole zoo print has been big this year, but this one feels timeless to me. comes in multiple sizes. found on
Rachel sunglasses chain
thanks to chemo erasing what little short term memory i have left (i also smoke a lot of pot), i am constantly misplacing sunglasses. i love these “gators” because they’re a play on the kitschy retirement home vibe. these come in a large array of colors and are available to customize yourself. never sit on your sunglasses again! shop
arizona big buckle birkenstock
ok, first of all: gold hardware. done. sold. this birkenstock voted for Bernie but still summers in europe. this birkenstock is my personality. would have loved to see gold and black, but i’ll still buy them. purchased them in cognac. on
shell pair wall planter
beats a basic terrarium any day. Night Shade Studio is constantly churning out unique, minimalist planters. the oxidized metal gives it a vintage feel, but the abstract shapes keep it modern. this one is ideal for drier plants. check out the rest at
THE ABCs earring
look at this lil’ guy. the perfect addition to any “piercing party”. i’m obsessed with the little die (the GOLD letter)! currently, KSJ is donating 100% of profits to the NAACP Legal Defense and Educational Funds. if you’re feeling weird about things and don’t know exactly where to donate your money and feel like it’s going somewhere. check out the collection at
sunday best Solitaire Blouse
this is absolutely fucking adorable. a little too adorable for me, but this would look so GOOD on s.w.i.m.! peter pan collar, puffed sleeves and a crop fit. comes in white, but i think the black gives it an edge. find it at
rosarioflared pants
this amsterdam studio collaborates with local artists. this year’s mexico collection has a bit of a go-go feel, inspired by the colorful energy of mexico’s seaside. i love this entire Rosario Set (t-shirt and all), but the pants are especially fantastic. these will serve you well long into the humid summer nights. found at
shirley bag croc embossed
i love PVC purses. there’s something a little sci-fi and very mod about them. the croc design makes it look more expensive. with a removable calf leather pouch, this is basically two purses in one. i already bought the tan, but the black is striking. check out
hurricane xlt infinity sandal
these have been purchased. lightweight, super comfortable, and easy to get on and off. these are my go-to summer shoes. default dog walking shoes (i walked through a river in these). comes in multiple colors, but i love this paint splatter version. pair these with a pair of culottes or leather shorts and you can wear them to brunch. see on
straight leg jeans
they call this design “denim head”, intended to mimic the natural fade and wear created over time by items in the pockets. i don’t care if they’re a 28” waist, i will wear a belt, a piece of twine, WHATEVER to wear these. look up
tomboy ring 14k
i bought this in the midi size years ago and lost all of them. still wear my size 6 everyday. get to know this brand. experts in delicate fine jewelry,
