Weekend Update

Sale PSA: A fun cashmere zebra print sweater from The Elder Statesman, now 60% off (why still so expensive!), wedge sandals from Margiela, now 40% off, lilac mules from Manolo Blahnik, now 30% off, and ruched leather sandals from Khaite, now 50% off.

1. This week, sharing a secret sale item I found – these puffy Prada sandals.

For some reason there is no sale footwear from Prada online! Have you noticed? But I had this bookmarked and went back and realized it was on sale! My size is missing but I’m sharing here in caes you guys want to try what looks like a very comfortable sandal.

2. I liked this article, via The Atlantic, about why fashion is the way it is now.

3. I loved this piece, via the NYT, about a luxury shirtmaker in India.

4. For true crime junkies out there – I liked this deep dive, via Vanity Fair, on Gabby Petito.

5. This week I read Trust, by Hernan Diaz.

I loved this book! I would describe it as a somewhat innovative (in terms of structure) novel – about the richest man in the US, but this is really a book about capitalism, wealth, status, and society. I think it was a fast read but if you are looking for a quick summer thriller, this may not be it for you. However – if you have been looking for a literary read with great language that will make you think, I highly recommend Trust.

    I also liked the Atlantic article- thank you for a great recommendation! I miss your Hermes posts- you used to write about them long before it became a thing and the internet was flooded with YouTubers unboxings😄
