Oh that fringed Akris blouse, what a find! I have its twin on my eBay watchlist, tysm for this link. I also can't stop thinking about the vintage jelly brooches you posted in notes, but have been too nervous to buy because of tariffs, so this is hopeful news about your pants. And a huge yes to sunscreen all the time.

Highly recommend!! Omg if you need a brooch message me I have SO many saved!

I fear I have too many brooches saved but you might receive a dm anyway because your curations are spectacular 😘 You truly put me over the edge with the jelly shell brooch.

You flatter me!! Even if we just chat brooches😂

It's the gravy boat that makes you fully adult. IMHO. And your exquisite taste. What a glorious mix of yum you've offered here.

What a glorious review!

Glorious post. My Mom gave me a 9th birthday party where we all dressed up as Japanese girls in “kimono”, paper parasols and fans. Have been obsessed with Asian design since childhood.

The pistachio bag! The tiger print pants! The vintage Victoria’s Secret robe! I want it all!

Ah I’m glad you love!! My deep dives truly paid off

Ok… hear me out… those La Ligne pants were made for you! I get it that you couldn’t wear them all the time but the right occasion with a heel?!

I did LOL at “I am, in fact, short” 😂

Kendall Flavin's avatar

Ugh I want them to work so badly😭 but I’d rather use the credit for something I can actually wear since realistically I only wear heels for dinner every once in a while… life is so unfair

I know, I know, I’m being a terrible influence but they did look great.

Kendall Flavin's avatar

Not a terrible influence, just an optimist! I MIGHT be able to hem them but idk if I really want to😂

That was so much fun, seeing you style all of your lovely purchases, Kendall! I had a red velvet/faux fur duster coat similar to yours that I wore in the late 90s with a mini skirt and a lace bra. 💕

Fabulous styling, so inspiring!

The De La Vali pants!! You're also very much inspiring me to focus on my silly little costume jewelry collection -- I envy your necklace stacks!
