Haaaaaaappy Friday y’all 🫶 hope everyone is taking it easy and taking care of themselves as much as they can today!
A few very exciting announcements:
On IG, the ATSC giveaway is closing at 4 PM EST TODAY so there is still time to enter!!!
One of my favorite parts of the end of every month is making a new birthday gift guide, and July’s is now LIVE! we <3 u, cancer friends
And finally…… we are officially a 100+ strong community here on Substack 🥹🥹🥹 truly so grateful to each and every one of you who is here!!!! And stay tuned, I am working on cooking up a little Substack-specific giveaway to say thank you!!
Now, onto the good stuff…
Get Thrifty
1. Hanes Handmade Graphic Sweatshirt, Size 8 from Depop, $60
Graphic tee girlies, may I introduce you to this HANDMADE graphic crewneck!! The colors, the one-of-a-kindness, this pairing with the statement necklace… too good.
2. Metro Card Graphic Tee, Multiple Sizes from Depop, $20
But never fear, I would never leave us without a true graphic tee to thrift! I might in fact be purchasing one as a nostalgic New Yorker – and this feels Carrie-coded, so really we have no choice.
3. Staud Striped V-Neck Crop Top, Size L from TheRealReal, $90
The summer of Staud continues!!! Whoever cops this beauty, I think you are legally obligated to wear it on a boat with oversized sunnies and a spritz in hand!
4. Nautical Earrings with Starfish and Sea Shells from Curtsy, $18
Y’all, there is STILL TIME to nab these iconic, brand new statement earrings before the Fourth of July celebrations begin, just sayin’!
B.N.W.T.
1. One Piece Swimsuit from Aquatica, $48
Ok, somehow this newsletter became very nautical/aquatic-themed, my bad lol. But this one piece is TO DIE FOR IMO.
2. Spiral Bracelet from Etsy (AncientGreekJewelry), $71 (AFF)
To keep a little piece of Mamma Mia with you, no matter where you go!!! I LOVE this bracelet, and I also recommend checking out all of AncientGreekJewelry’s items, they are so cute. ALSO, I just (barely) figured out how to affiliate links, please see my whole policy here!! TLDR: they will only be on things I would recommend without any aff link, and they will always be marked!
3. Short-Sleeve Disco Ball Graphic Skimming Tee from Abercrombie, $29 (AFF)
I personally feel a grandma era coming on for me… and this cutie graphic tee is the perfect uniform lol. This is also currently on sale for 20% off!!
4. Team USA Ribbed Tank Top from Skims, $38 (AFF)
Ok, for a Skims collab, I think the one with Team USA is SO well-priced. And we gotta support our girl Katie Ledecky (and Simone Biles and so many other superstars!!!)
Spotlight ✨
Today’s spotlight has been a long time coming… it’s the fabulous app + team behind
!First and foremost, if you aren’t already on the Teleport app, I HIGHLY recommend it. I would say that of all the thrifting and vintage apps, this one is truly an app made by thrift shoppers for thrift shoppers. The community on here is incredibly talented and almost all of them really know their stuff!!! Which makes shopping on the app even more fun.
One of the other amazing features is that Teleport is like TikTok for shopping in that products are displayed through video clips of actual people wearing them. As someone who has thrifted many things online only to find out they look super different when I put them on my body, this feature is a GAME CHANGER. It also seems super fun to film them if that’s your thing!
One of my personal favorite things to do is just peruse all the gorgeous vintage dresses on Teleport, like this one and this one (note: need the app to open links!)
I also wanted to share some of the items I’ve recently saved (and might put a bid in for 👀)! (Sweater here, denim shirt here, and red dress here.)
And finally, some of my past Teleport purchases include this “florida” tank (subtle Swifty vibes, anyone???) and this tote bag which I need in every color under the sun :) also so sorry, I only have the most random pictures of the things I’ve bought but I love them!
All this to say, if you’re a big fan of thrifting and vintage and you’re out at a market every weekend (or you are just getting started and want to do this!)… definitely check out Teleport.
Look at this Graph
From the queen @databutmakeitfashion… as a cream/liquid blush girlie who just kinda assumed everyone else was too, I am in SHOCK
I must get to the bottom of this, what kind of blush do you use??
Other Corners of the Internet
Big Silly Trivia was featured in Business Insider!!! I LOVE these girls and they deserve all the recognition and praise for the beautiful community they’ve built. Can’t wait for season two, see you all there 💋💋
Speaking of celebrating… Condiment Claire is my all-time comfort influencer and I am SO excited for her new book!!!!!
And speaking of condiments, have you seen the new Kate Spade x Heinz Ketchup collab? I think I am still processing lol but would love to hear your thought!
Some spicy discourse online this week: is the “influencer era” a la Alix Earle over?? (Personally, I don’t think so lol)
TikTok loves a Victorian lampshade (same, TikTok, same).
Another newsletter… another shell-inspired piece of tableware that I will covet for the rest of my life. So pretty!!!
Last week’s top links were the key lime pie crack recipe (did y’all try it??), crafty girl summer tips, and, ofc, for two weeks running, the cutie Hill House nap dress :)
Btw, just in case, here’s the song quoted in the title!
That’s all for now! Next week, I’m planning to do a lil update on the Substack giveaway and a special edition for the holiday. Talk to you then <3
