adding to cart just to feel something
a pre-rich auntie does her online shopping for spring/summer
This spring/summer, I went deep into the digital trenches to find eccentric bits and bobs that felt like they belonged to women who watch The Real Housewives for the sociological aspect and occasionally cry in taxis. The vibe is “art-adjacent aunt,” “retired gallerist in training,” or “someone who brings their own olive oil to dinner.” There’s no theme except the internal compass of taste. Which, like a good therapist, is a bit expensive and often right.
Behold, a short list of the coolest things found on Beyonce’s internet recently:
These insanely cute closed toe jelly sandals from Loeffler Randall
A cute clear bag for stadium events this summer
An incense holder that also doubles as general home decor
…Or a candle holder that invokes the feeling of spring
These diamond patterned jeans from Veronica Beard
An insane Swarovski choker necklace sure to spark conversation
A banana phone…..yes, you read that right.
These Lauren Ralph Lauren tortoise earrings to add a touch of sophistication
