I can’t wait to discuss it with you all.

    On today’s episode, Jacob and I are discussing hyper-femininity vs. hyper-masculinity through the lens of Breakfast at Tiffany’s and Fight Club.

    Quote of the Week:

    “The love of heaven makes one heavenly.” - William Shakespeare

    Classic Style Inspo

    I loved this post from my friend Caitlin’s on her Instagram! She is a beautiful example of femininity, and yet here she is in a cute T-shirt and fun pants. It may not look classically feminine, and yet, with a baby on her hip, her hair swinging behind her, she epitomizes womanhood. It’s not always about wearing a pretty dress and a full face of makeup. Sometimes it’s about wearing something cute, comfortable, and practical so you can be the best mom you can be!

    Things I’ve Been Loving: Baby Playpen

    This baby playpen has been a gamechanger for Mr. Baby! Because he’s moving around so much, I was concerned that he could roll into wires or hit himself on the floor. This playpen gives him the perfect place to play without parental supervision at all times. It’s perfect!

    Quote of the Week:

    “You call yourself a free spirit, a ‘wild thing,’ and you’re terrified somebody’s gonna stick you in a cage. Well baby, you’re already in that cage. You built it yourself. And it’s not bounded in the west by Tulip, Texas, or in the east by Somali-land. It’s wherever you go. Because no matter where you run, you just end up running into yourself.” - Breakfast at Tiffany’s

    Classic Style Inspo

    Today’s newsletter is very inspired by our movie for A.V. Club tonight! Audrey Hepburn’s style in Breakfast at Tiffany’s is truly the epitome of classic. Despite the fact that initially her character is far from it, Holly Golightly’s clothing is always beautifully tailored, modest, and timeless. A boatneck dress, pearls, and kitten heels never go out of style.

    Things I’ve Been Loving: Made In Italy Sandals

    I love this company’s sandals so much. I bought one pair and found them so comfortable, I bought a second pair in a different color! They are an elevated flip-flop that I can walk in for hours and never feel any pain. I think you’ll love them - just go up 1/2 a size!

    Quote of the Week:

    "It’s worth remembering that it is often the small steps, not the giant leaps, that bring about the most lasting change." - Queen Elizabeth II

    Classic Style Inspo

    Today, I wanted to talk about the beautiful, classic, and timeless style of Queen Elizabeth II. The Queen passed away yesterday, and in her memory, we should be inspired to dress as beautifully, modestly, and classically as she did. Pearls, tailored dresses, and wonderful suits were staples of hers and made her look like a true lady!

    Things I’ve Been Loving: Battery Daddy

    This is such a great organizing tool for your batteries! If you’re like me, you have a ton of loose batteries hanging around your house. You have no idea which ones are new or which ones are dead, and it’s a real pain to figure out! With this case, you can store all of your batteries in the same place as well as test them to figure out if they still have any juice. This is a great buy!

    If you want to be feminine without being too cutesy, small ruffles along seams is a great way to do it! Big ruffles can look immature, but small ruffles add just the right amount of whimsy.

    “Everyone thinks of changing the world, but no one thinks of changing himself.” -Leo Tolstoy

    Classic Style Inspo

    If you’re looking for a way to start transitioning into fall without dying of heat, a dress in fall colors is the perfect way to do it! I’m obsessed with this dress for a ton of reasons, but one is the color palette. Wearing these colors is a small sign that the seasons will be changing soon, but the fabric is light enough that I can continue to wear it even on the hottest of days.

    Things I’ve Been Loving: Gleem Toothbrush

    I recently bought this toothbrush at Walgreens and fell in love with it. Beyond the fact that it looks so nice, it has a great brush head and a timer that tells you when to move around your mouth and when 2 minutes is up. It’s great!

    THE RISE AND TRIUMPH OF THE MODERN SELF: Book Club Is THIS WEEK At 8:30 PM EST!

    I am so excited to convene for another ZOOM book club discussion! I love being able to have a live conversation with you all.

    Book club is convening this THURSDAY (8/11/2022) at 8:30 PM EST. Because we are reading a book that is pretty philosophically dense, I’ve invited my husband Jacob to join us so he can address some of the harder concepts. I look forward to him being a part of it! I will send out the link for the Zoom call and it will only be available to premium subscribers. I hope you’ll subscribe and join us!

  • Just A Clarification…

    Because we postponed book club last week, I had been hoping to have this bonus podcast sent out to you by last Friday. Unfortunately, I caught the flu this weekend and was totally down for the count! Because of this, my newsletter schedule will look a little different this week. You’ll be receiving this podcast today, our weekly discussion thread tomorrow, and my weekly article on Thursday (the same day as our book club). I apologize for the delay in content, but I think you’ll enjoy today’s podcast episode quite a lot!

    Classic Style Inspo

    Does this outfit make me look like a Floridian? I love this for warm weather! It’s a top and pants, which makes it super easy to nurse in, and the fabric is so lightweight that I don’t feel sweaty at the end of the day. Find a matching set and you don’t even have to think twice when you’re putting an outfit together! Here’s a cute option on Amazon.

    Things I’ve Been Loving: Estee Lauder Double Wear Foundation

    I love this foundation! It’s so long-wearing and provides great coverage. If you’re looking for a new foundation that you can wear all day long, this is a great option.

    Classic Style Inspo

    We are officially in FLORIDA! How cool is that?? It’s about a million degrees here, so I’ve figured out that to look and stay cool, wearing flowy pants is a great solution. I found this matching set (which, P.S., is great for nursing) and it has been keeping me stylish and breezy! Here’s a dupe from Amazon.

    Things I’ve Been Loving: Schick Hydro Razor

    I recently tried this new razor and I’m loving it! I get the smoothest shave and it leaves my legs feeling moisturized, too. If you’re looking for a new razor, try this one out!

    “The most courageous act is still to think for yourself. Aloud." - Coco Chanel

    Classic Style Inspo

    Having a long cardigan to throw over any outfit is a great summer solution to the age old problem of, “It’s boiling outside, but freezing inside!” You can take it off as soon as you go outside, but put it back on when you come in and the A/C unit is running on high.

    Things I’ve Been Loving: Monikers

    This is a great party game that Jacob and I love! Whenever we have guests over, we love to play Monikers because it’s the quickest way to create inside jokes with friends. It’s sort of like charades…but with a twist. You’ll love it!

    Classic Style Inspo

    To add a touch of modesty to your wardrobe but still keep cool in the summertime, try throwing a pretty button-down shirt over your outfit! I love this little trick - it’s like the summer version of a fall cardigan.

    Things I’ve Been Loving: Pot Strainer

    If you’re looking for something to make your life more convenient, look no further! This pot strainer clips right onto the side of your pot to drain out the water from whatever you’re cooking. I love how easy it makes things!
