It's been one of those weeks: a full-tilt blur of AP exams, running-late to appointments, chaotic photo shoots, fog-then-sunshine-then-fog, anxiety (hello, old friend), and tears (inevitable). The kind where days collapse into nights, and I'm just trying to keep it all stitched together with espresso, dry shampoo, and good intentions. But—as life so often insists—there were little flickers of light. A $99 Swarovski cocktail ring I stumbled across on my sister's photo shoot set, above, that looked triple the price and made me marvel at how crystal can feel so decadent. (I'm also wearing Thatch, Adina Reyter and Kate Collins.) A new TV series I started nibbling on (no shame, full joy). An excellent new Chloe jelly bag and a Jil Sander dupe I almost didn’t believe until it was in my hands. The cutest custom pet jewelry designer on Etsy whose rings I would imagine feel like love I can wear (I want to do one with a Palisades Phoenix, thank you Joanne Pauley). More inexpensive statement-making baubles at Massimo Dutti. A miracle-working Shani Darden facial wand (everyone told me I looked better after one use!) and this old-school MAC Cosmetics Lip Liner that's apparently making a major comeback. Lastly, Malibu-inspired board shorts to see me through less of those weeks this summer.
