New Arrivals & Restock Alerts

• This runaway bestseller is back! Not surprised since we couldn’t get enough last season, I wear my regular size small. & while you’re there this is stunning

• Quince is getting bolder with color! Did you see the fresh new pink/brown in our favorite $50 cotton sweater? This bag too in a similar color to the Clare V style I ordered (sensing a trend…) & a butter yellow in this well under $100 skirt (I sized down to an xs)
• This $40 dress stopped me in my tracks at Target…didn’t have time to try it on but the material felt quality and the pattern options were beautiful.
• This is too good to pass up from the J.Crew new arrivals… these are giving Naghedi vibes for a fraction of the price & adore this new one piece swimsuit colorway
• This closet workhorse dress is always ready for anything (can wear with sneakers during the week or heels for a night out) so can’t wait to try the new shorter version, I size down to an xs.
• I’m completely sold on Ruggable for inside our house so excited to give the outdoor styles a go ~ this one stopped my scroll. Code LATELY15

Top 5 Bestsellers

• The espadrille’s so good I bought them twice, this updated boyfriend polo (code YOUROCK), few sizes left in this skirt (the pink is so good too!), this seersucker collection (code CLAIRE20, first order only) & this closet basic

What I’m Wearing

• These are a yes at Pistola, code 15LATELY. Fit true to size, have some stretch to them.
• Love having this J.Crew clutch on hand for nights out, days when I don’t need my larger tote, or to stay organized in my larger totes this Summer.
• You know when you place an order thinking not everything might work? Well ALL OF THIS WORKED. This tote is gorgeous & can be wiped down to clean, these spring sneakers, size down one in these denim shorts & how fun is this ring set for something unexpected?

What I’m Shopping For

• Mother’s Day Gifts! Started pulling some ideas together here & will do a full edit next week
• Workout upgrades ~ after developing a neck issue I’m determined to build lean muscle BEFORE I head deeper into my 40’s and into perimenopause. This program has been incredible (get 25% off your first 3 months with code REFERRAL25) so I’m ditching my old ill fitting sports bras & ordered this & this along with these seam free leggings to try.

& Lately…

• Favorite Saves This Week (& a new around or under $100 edit right here)
• Restocked Bestsellers ~ Our Most Loved Spring Styles Returning For Another Season

Have a great rest of your weekend! xo, Claire
