Little Things to Heal May Melancholy
i’ve been in a bit of a funk for most of May which caused me to stop shopping. Partially by choice, partially because I knew if I bought anything it would feel slightly off. like trying on versions of myself that just weren’t landing…so fortunately for my bank account, there’s no miraculous vintage find or fabulous purchase that cured everything. BUT these are some small things that at least made me feel a little cute again, or helped pull me out of the same depression outfit i’d been wearing on repeat.
I have been in a hair rut. It’s about 3in too long & any time i’ve tried to style it… it end up in tears. Then I saw this perfect image of Nicole Kidman with a simple bang twist & a vintage clip so of course I ran to the 1950s clips I purchased a few years back to see if this is what could save my hair meltdown
it worked :)
The days where a giant pair of sunglasses is doing all the emotional heavy lifting for my mundane outfit. I clearly have a type: oversized, round & slightly bizarre <3
this is not something I bought but one of you should
Nothing & I mean nothing, makes me feel more like myself than a good pump. I’ve had my eyes on these Charles Jourdan pumps for years now & I can honestly say they lifted me… or at least lifted my heels out of my funk. These are some similar divas:
Jude makes so many fab pairs & these are almost identical to mine
& last but definitely not least, this perfume because it has put so many smiles on my face. I have genuinely never received this many compliments (& threats to not gatekeep) over a scent before. Happy to report we officially have a new signature scent for spring/summer.
P.S. this playlist has been on repeat to pull me out of this may melancholy
