Dossier #2. The Cool Girl Anklet, Labubu Cookies, Hailey Beiber is Funny, Mesh Bag Summer & Sofia Grainge's Vacay Shoes.
A Tuesday Dossier filled with things that caught my eye...
Hello!
I wanted to try something fun, quick, and light on a regular basis. A few things that have caught my eye throughout the week and are worth sharing. So Consider This the Tuesday Dossier. A weekly round-up of screenshots, saved links and other musings. It might be fun. Might not, ha. But here goes…
I bought this cool girl anklet for summer because I love it and I know they will sell out!
Everything
tends to. I bought the green but also want the black and plan on wearing it on my wrist. I dm’d Meg to tell her and she said they are selling like hotcakes especially among the team at the Dorsey HQ. “Honestly every single person in our office is like ‘wait I need the yellow! No orange! No Blue! Wait what about the red?!” And well, same.Labubu’s are literally everywhere including my local cafe.
Which I do have to commend for banking in on this trend in a more harmless, delicious and environmentally friendly way. Consumerism knows no bounds and I just love this clip from The Gruen Project that pretty much sums it up.
Hailey Beiber isn’t just laughing all the way to the bank.
She’s trolling all of us in her Vogue In Her bag Video which shows Hailey slurping her Erewhon smoothie, while chatting of a love potion she got from a witch, an empty journal where she writes all of her thoughts and ideas and a face mask only accessible by sailboat. How silly and funny and just utterly refreshing it is to see a beautiful, rich, smart woman poking fun at herself!
Mesh Bags will be big this summer.
I had based this on an IG story from
because it looked so darn chic. That was until a few minutes ago when sent out an edit which features a beige mesh tote from Hereu so now I’m convinced mesh will be doing the rounds again this summer (though, did mesh ever leave?). I will probably be trawling Etsy as the budget does not stretch far enough for the Imogen but if yours does, go forth!Speaking of The Row and dupe culture…
I read a piece from
titled Why we (maybe) buy: That The Row Jacket Dupe. “If I buy the dupes, I’ll still want the original. And when the original shows up on The RealReal, looking still SO good and 48% off, I’ll cave. Then I’ve spent more, and now one of them will haunt me from the back of my closet..” WOW doesn’t this just hit? Well, it does for me. When it comes to dupes, it can be hard to draw the line, and everyone’s line is different. I think if any purchase feels wrong internally and you don’t want to wear something because it’s a direct knock-off then you probably shouldn’t have bought it. I did, however, purchase the Zara jacket is referring to because I really love the style and I know I won’t buy The Row version. TBC on the fit and if I actually keep it.Sofia Grainge’s vacay shoe collection is wild and I’m jealous.
The Row, Esber, Chloe oh my! The yellow Asics, I was not expecting though. What a collection and also feels. I try to pack light but shoes always undo me. If anyone has any packing tips, specially shoes, send them my way please.
