Hello readers! This week’s newsletter brings you my one and only can’t-survive-without clothing item and some books I really wanted to feature individually but never got around to ~ let’s dive in!

We are fully into soccer, baseball and graduating senior season right now (and I spent way too much time on Thursday’s piece) so today’s newsletter is going to be a shortish one. Friends, I’m just leaning falling into this wild stage of life with total abandon and want to remind everyone yet again of my very favorite book for any parent of teenagers ~ It Goes So Fast: The Year of No Do-Overs by Mary Louise Kelly. Read, weep, repeat.
