😂😂😂 “Love that a long-reads book club was part of this writer’s quest to heal her attention span. (Related: hate that my attention span was too short to read the whole article.)”

Thanks for sharing my recs! You've also now got me thinking I should replace my 10+ year old flip flops. So many cute options!

There’s a book that compiles letters the Mitford sisters wrote to each other over the decades, it’s absolutely fascinating.

Congrats on the draft!! What a wonderful milestone in the journey of this book. I ordered the Margaux wrap and am hoping they work well - last year I saw the amanu rainbow wrap at a local high end consignment store in my size and didn’t buy them. THE REGRET IVE FELT SINCE THEN!!! I had just bought a pair of Amanu sandals and felt I didn’t need two pairs - truly what was I thinking 🫠

The wrap sandals are so cute! I've been seeing so many people wear them online and I think it's only a matter of time for me. And I join the chorus of kicking you for passing up consignment rainbow sandals!! (Frankly that's just jealousy talking!)

I wore my amanu sandals today just to make sure they were getting the proper work and honoring the missed opportunity to bring them a friend 😂
