Sunday Summaries #1

Quick Roundup of All The Things

Welcome to the beginning of my series, Sunday Summaries! Every Sunday I will be sharing things I have loved this week. So without further ado, let’s wrap up my week together.

First off, fashion

Recently, I have been on the hunt to expand my supply of going out clothes to transcend the freshman year of college crop tops and basic jeans. Here are some pieces from my likes on The RealReal that I have been loving (please buy these before I do). The key here was looking for some great timeless and classy, yet in trend options for our mid twenties extravaganzas.

A quick reminder that at the end of the day, you can buy second hand all you want in hopes of being sustainable, but true sustainability is investing in pieces that are timeless and will last you for years.

All in the details

Something I have been focusing on when second hand shopping is paying attention to the microscopic details. A way to make your closet more fun but still wearable is collecting pieces with unique cuts, elements, and fabrics. Instead of buying a plain black belt, make it suede, or replace your basic pointed kitten heel for a square one. You don’t have to be basic with a black tank top either, instead look for asymmetrical cuts. I love all of these second hand pieces because from a quick glance they may seem neutral, although when investigating further, they each have an element of personal style.

Metallics, Mesh, Lace, Suede and The Mixing of it All

We have seen all over Paris Fashion Week Fall 2024 the continuance of metallics, mesh, lace and suede. How this transcends into day to day wear is always a bit diminished. Although, adding bits of these elements into an outfit provides the pizzazz and trendiness you could be searching for.

Obsessed with this look from the Louis Vuitton Paris Fashion Week Fall 24. The mixing of mesh and fur, the layering of fabric, the cutouts on the side, and mixing of navy with black, just delectable.

Again we see here in the Lacoste Fall 2024 Paris Fashion Week, the mixing of materials like lace, mesh, silk and sequins. Although high fashion lavishes these materials together, we are seeing this mixing enter the world of casual wear as well. Think of mixing materials you would usually think clash for a new way to create an outfit with things you already own.

Feeding the soul

Just a good reminder to savor that cup of coffee and hold the hug from your friend for an extra second today.

Kind’ve still on theme with the importance of the little things in life. If you want to be a kinder person, that does not mean you need to donate all of your money to charity, but there is kindness in even reciprocating a smile to a stranger. Artist

Pinterest pinnacles

Proof that messiness can be chic? Or at least I tell myself that

Again with this sort’ve organized chaos. The ability to play around with different colors that I would not typically throw together, but it just works. OBSESSED

I just love this photo it exuberates pure happiness as well as a sense of freedom and playfulness.

Put on my listening ears

Post Modern Fade by Cottonwood Firing Squad— just trust.

In Dreams by Sierra Ferrell— this fills me with that wonderfully rare feeling of falling madly, freely, irresistibly into love.

Everything I Know About Love: A Memoir by Dolly Alderton— I love listening to this while doing laundry, cleaning my room, or in the car when I am tired of my music. It makes even the most mundane of tasks interesting.

That’s a wrap!

If you have made it to the end of this, I hope I inspired you or you gained something from me in some way or another. Happy easter and have a great start to your week!

Your’s truly,
