melting

today in atlanta the “feels like” temp was one hundred and nine degrees

it’s hard to want to dress for anything right now. i’m avoiding leaving the house until ~7 pm as a general rule, but to prep for some unavoidable outdoor social events, i’ve become obsessed with putting together a basketball shorts + “scarf-as-a-shirt” look. saved a bunch of scarves from my deep dive below

but for the most part this time of year is a welcome slowdown in shopping. if i’m buying something for now it’s probably jewelry… otherwise i’m thinking ahead to cooler months when i can finally layer again

🌷🐠 silk scarves: purple balmain, celine tassels, red-pink landscape, cartier pearls, just sconces, gold and brown chess, pink checked, celestial, red leafy, neutral geo, lagerfeld frames, yellow floral, lacroix floral-piscine

there are many more on ebay (hermes, gucci) to bid on but i avoid putting auction style listings in here for time’s sake. take a gander tho

🗺️ etsy has so many good shops based abroad, we’ve discussed malaysia before but eastern europe is also overrepresented. there are so many good ones from italy or greece i’ve come across and saved a million things for you all before sadly deleting them when i realize shipping is $24…. but this guy from ukraine incredibly has free shipping! lots of cavalli, preppy checked marni tote, a detachable barbour hood, men’s too!

🤳 so much of my searching starts with taking a screenshot of something while i’m scrolling on ig or twitter…. coming back to it a month later… spending too much time trying to figure out what this blur says….

turns out it says “Paola Frani”, an italian designer -

more from paola: pants with side stitching, exceptionally ruffled dress/top, silk cargo tank, beaded slit skirt, belt with side chains, ice princess dress

another label from deep in my screenshots is Nicole Farhi: red/pink dress, yellow dress, multicolor skirt, sage cardigan

🥈 silver 🪙

HARDWARE: blue suede vest with silver buckles, chain-link-cargo-studded versace jeans

BELTS: swirly buckle, ball and chain adjustable, heart and chain, a generally fun belt brand to search for
