Can you say "brami" out loud with a straight face?
PLUS: One of you needs to get these pants I swear to GOD
HELLO new subscribers!! Welcome to the party! You are fashionably late. This is my weekly shopping diary, including things I said no to and things that are still marinating in my various shopping carts. Before we begin here is an update on the ugly dog vase I bought one day last week at 7:45am: She’s here and she’s perfect.
One more thing! If you like reading this, please tell everyone you know they can subscribe here!!

This weekend, while I was at a bar, I got an email from Urban Outfitters about a 50% off summer sale. In a matter of minutes I scrolled through the sale items and purchased this large, sparkly tiger pool float, which I’ll take to the Catskills on July 4th weekend. There was absolutely no reason for me to buy this because I am the proud owner of a giant inflatable swan, pizza slice and a floating beer pong “barge” which I take to the Catskills every year.
I know many of you have been on the edge of your seats waiting to find out if the possibly sketchy robot vacuum replacement brushes solved my dog hair problems…the answer is MOSTLY. I just have to remember to run the damn thing on a daily basis…it’s Operator Error now. Many of you will say “but you can PROGRAM it,” and you’re right, I can. One step at a time.
Beauty
I’m mad about this but I finally tried Baby Facial and it’s really good. I got a sample of it from a Sephora purchase from a few weeks back and I finally used it last week. Im gonna have to buy the full size :(((((((
Clothing
I want to introduce you to the best bralette ever made. I encourage everyone to try it no matter your bra size. It’s very stretchy and comfortable. I’ve been sleeping in the black one I got last week and I have 2 more in my cart. Free People calls this a “brami” I guess because you can also wear it as a very scandalous tank top, which I did. No nip slips were reported but that doesn’t necessarily mean it didn’t happen.
I also got this star hair claw and earrings at Free People. I can’t find the exact earrings I got but it’s basically a tortoise shell version of this set. I’ve been wearing the hair clip almost every day (I desperately need a haircut) and really love the earrings. Im an earring girl now!!
When my friend Jill pulled this backless and sideless Mara Hoffman swimsuit off the rack at TJmaxx I reluctantly agreed to try it on and to my surprise the damn thing fit. If you go for this and have a long torso, size up!
What I didn’t buy/Whats in the cart/Someone buy this
I’ve had this steamer in my cart for so long. When will I finally pull the trigger?? The steamer I have has served me well for 5 years but it’s time to move on.
Also in my cart is this grip for the Lodge cast iron pan I bought because I keep almost burning the fuck out of my hand. Im flying too close to the sun!!!
I did not buy these EVA Birkenstocks (YOU ARE BREAKING THROUGH, JILL) but I don’t have any beach/pool slides and a little bird named Jill keeps talking about how amazing they are and I am very susceptible to this.
I did not buy this fancy top at Free People but it looked pretty good…just not $128 good.
I didn’t buy these clogs from Lotta From Stockholm because they’re sold out in my size. I bought a pair last year and wore them to death (even in the fall with socks) and they finally died in April.
There’s some great stuff on sale at Need Supply right now, including these weird ass boots that someone should buy.
I have Glossier’s brow flick in my cart but I’m gonna need to read several reviews before I actually buy it. I wish their store wasn’t such a nightmare to get into!
