Saturday Snack: Good Girl Bags, Sunscreen, Hermes Giftables, etc.
Little tidbits from around the internet.
Here we go!
MEN’S CARPENTER JEANS THAT WILL BLOW YOUR MIND
While I was in NY this week, my very chic, very Parisian friend Delphine texted me a video of herself in perfect carpenter pants. Keep or return? She asked. KEEP OMG KEEEEEEEEP - I replied. What are they?! [heart eye emoji, heart eye emoji, heart eye emoji] I wrote again. “Men’s Gap.” - They’re going in the newsletter, I told her, and here they are.
They fit her so beautifully, look so cool and not at all ironic or stupid, just very cool carpenter jeans. AND! They’re $60 (sizes US 28W - 48W men’s sizing)
THE SUNSCREEN I FORGOT TO INCLUDE LAST TIME
Whoops! After my insanely long post about my skincare on Thurs, I forgot to link to the sunscreen I’ve been using. It’s heavy duty, but if you’re dropping any kind of $ on skincare in a doctor’s office, you’ll want to protect your investment. Read all about my skin stuff (and why I only get botox in my neck + no filller) here. La Roche Posay, $26
AND ALSO MY SILK PILLOWCASE
This was also referenced in that post - i don’t have this exact one with stripes, but mine is from Brooklinen and I like it. It’s not too slippery. I like this with stripes better - mine is plain. This would also make a great gift for a pal. Brooklinen, $69
I LOVE THESE SWEATPANTS
I didn’t bring these to NY - I was only there for 24 hours - but I really regretted it. When I walked in the door I was almost as excited to put these back on as I was to see my family. Donni, $144
GOOD GIRL BAGS
I don’t know another phrase for these, but they’re responsible, not too edgy, extremely useful, beautiful, and practical.
a) Is this an obvious choice for fall? No. But I think the chicest way to wear raffia or basket bags is in the fall and winter, with a navy peacoat. This one is pretty big, actually, and has a really interesting shape. It would be so gorgeous in the dead of winter…. but then also obviously in the spring and summer. Inés Bressand, $320
b) I love Little Liffner bags SO MUCH. I have this one in black suede, and it’s so special and beautiful, but doesn’t really signal anything other than good taste, which is what you want. No visible branding, it’s the kind of bag where you might get a knowing glance from a fellow gal, but it’s not broadcasting RICH! or TRENDY! or anything. Little Liffner, $695
c) Ok, this one is RICH, but it’s also the gold standard of leather totes. Beautifully designed, the most gorgeous leather, and impeccably made - this one is an icon for good reason. The Row, $2,390
THE MOST BEAUTIFUL VINTAGE HERMES NECKLACE
Santa / husband, if you’re reading….this is the only thing. A very classic, heavy silver curb link with signature Hermés detailing. So gorgeous. Hermés, $2,995
ANOTHER SILLY HERMÉS THING
Yes, this is a $400 leather tiny pouch, but it’s so fancy! And beautiful! The top traps have the Hermés anchor chain detailing, and it’s just tiny enough to hold one credit card and one lip balm, but man, how special. This would ALSO make a perfect gift. Hermés, $425
And goodmorning! Goodnight! Good everything!
