WEEK IN MY LIFE AT HOME 🏡🛀🏻🌼 hosting easter dinner, spring clothing haul & building my dream brand

Hi, y'all. Welcome to another week in my life. This week, we are hosting our Easter dinner, an Easter egg hunt, obviously. This was so fun. I have family in town. We are launching our Dolly of the Month, which we will talk about very soon. I mean, look at her. She's quite literally everything. I am in love. We're doing some hauls. I've been doing some shopping, and we're just having a great week at home. So I hope you guys enjoy this video. Hi, y'all. Happy Monday. Welcome back to my home. This week is gonna be a really fun week. We have a lot going on. Number one, I'm hosting Easter dinner for my friends tonight. I'm so excited. It started because I'm obsessed with my Easter tabletop, and I'm like, we have to do Easter dinner, which has now morphed into an Easter egg hunt, and I obviously got everyone Easter baskets. Like, it's been a whole thing. So I'm really excited to take y'all through that tonight. That is happening tonight, obviously. We are launching our monthly dollies. I don't have it on me, but essentially, every first of the month, we are going to be launching a new dolly. If you guys are new here, I am the founder of Friend of Mine, which is a home and hobby brand, and we have our little mascot, which is Dolly. It's a chicken. Clearly, I love chickens. I grew up in the early 2000s where roosters were everywhere over your house. Like, we had roosters on wallpaper, roosters on kitchen towels. Like, literally everywhere you looked in our home, we had little rooster statues everywhere. Like, there was some sort of obsession with roosters, and that, to me, just feels very nostalgic. Most of the women in my family are somehow connected to the homeware design world, so it just felt very nostalgic. And when I mean we, I mean our house, my other cousins, and my other cousins, all three of our homes were decorated the exact same. My aunt is also an interior decorator. My mom is as well. Anyway, we had roosters quite literally everywhere. That is just kind of where our mascot Dolly came from. She is a chicken. She is fabulous. She is amazing. So every single month, we are going to do a drop on the first of the month of our Dolly of the Month. For April, we launched our Grandma Dolly, and I'm obsessed with her. We're doing little canvases. They're 13 mesh. They're super small. They're a quick stitch. Very satisfying, fun, little like palette cleanser project, if you will. Like, I love the little mini 13 mesh projects. They're just so fun and satisfying to get done. And then every month, the last day of the month, we will reveal the new Dolly for the next month, and then they'll go for sale. It's the only canvases that we will never restock. So like, once they're gone, they are gone. We have a shoot for some tabletop stuff that we're launching. It's just gonna be a good week. I'm excited. I hope you guys enjoy. I'm actually, as we speak, currently prepping some stuff for tonight. I'm prepping in a little appetizer. Last night, I already made our dessert. I'm just making a chicken, some apps, and some drinks tonight. So it's not gonna be anything too crazy. I'm loving Easter this year. Like, I am obsessed with Easter. I need to needlepoint all the Easter projects I'm in love. I'm also hoping that I make it to the thrift store because this plate wall is going to be a full plate wall. The whole wall is going to be full of plates, and that is gonna be fabulous, and this whole couch is gonna be full of needlepoint pillows and that's just my vision. I'm obsessed. It's all I care about, and I love it. So anyway, guys, my favorite part of the week is Sunday and Thursday is when I post a new podcast episode, and then when I post my weekly vlogs, and I'm tagged in all of y'all needlepointing watching the videos. Like, seriously, it brings me so much joy. And especially when they're friend of mine canvases. Honestly, needlepointing as a whole, I don't even care what you're doing, just needlepointing is so good for you. But when they're friend of mine canvases especially, I'm like, this is the sweetest thing I think I've ever seen. I also just want to say thank you guys so much for all the love on my last grief podcast episode. It's probably the most vulnerable I think I've been online, aside from probably immediately when my little brother passed away. His birthday was this weekend, and it's just, I've just been so down. So anyway, I made myself get ready and get up, and I'm having friends over, and I'm doing things this week because I just need to get out of this kind of depressive slump that I've been in, and that is what we are doing. So anyway, I love you guys. Thank you so much for the support. The comments are really just so kind, and that episode to me was very therapeutic, just hearing what y'all also were going through. I had you guys send in whether it was messages or voicemails or whatever it was, and just reading those, of course grief is not a problem to be fixed. There's nothing that, there's not some great solve or anything like that, but there's something so therapeutic about hearing people with whatever you're going through that are going through something similar, and just not feeling so alone. Not sitting there and complaining, and I hate my life all the time, even though that's valid and necessary sometimes, but just hearing the stories and stuff was just like healing for me, so. Anyway, if you guys haven't watched that episode, I highly recommend, even if you haven't gone through anything with grief, I think it's just good because at one point we'll all face it, and then we all have friends that are going through things, and I think it just helps to kind of maybe better understand them a little bit. I don't know, but anyway. I'm living in Frankie's bikinis right now. I'm gonna get back to making my little appetizer, and then get back to work. We are busy, busy, busy with a friend of mine. Our first full-time hire starts this week. I'm really excited, and yeah, we have a lot going on, and I'm very excited. Guys, Dolly of the Month reveal. If you guys don't follow me on social or a friend of mine on social, you might not know about this, but we are launching a Dolly of the Month series, if you will, from here on out. The first of every single month, we'll be launching our Dolly of the Month. We will reveal the dolly on the last day of the month prior, and then once they're gone, they're gone. This is the only canvas. We will never be restocking. These are a true collector's item. This is a 13-mesh canvas. Here's our very first one. They're already out by now. It's Grandma Dolly, and look at this needle minder, y'all. Like, how good is this needle minder? I am obsessed. Oh my God, so cute. I don't even know what I'm gonna turn mine all into. I've been thinking about, you know, keeping it and making them ornaments, because then I could really up my ornaments. That's like 12 new ornaments a year, and they're so cute, but then I'm also like, do I wanna make it a garland? Do I want certain stand-up ones? I just don't know what I want. I haven't decided. If you guys have good recs, let me know, but this is our very first one. It's May, March 30th, it's not May, so I'm actually about to announce that we're doing this, and then we're revealing tomorrow, and then we're launching on Wednesday, and I'm just really excited about it. That's why we're doing that event tomorrow, and she is just everything. Like, look at her glasses. The queen has glasses. So good. Like, I'm just, I'm in love. I can't wait to stitch her. These 13-mesh little small canvases are just such good, like, almost like palette cleanser canvases. Once you're working on something, like, difficult or longer, you're getting bored of something, and you just need something that's gonna be quick and, like, satisfying and get you, it's kind of like getting you out of a book rub but getting you out of, like, a stitch rut. I love a 13-mesh project like this. Like, they're just so cute. They're also really great for beginners, but I'm obsessed, literally obsessed with this. I love it so much. I'm just trying to think of, like, what I want to do for my background. I've known about these for months. You would think I would have, I just keep going back and forth. I just don't know what I want to do yet, so anyway, really pumped. All right, y'all, I just put together some Easter baskets. They're the cutest things ever. I got these just on Amazon, and they're just gonna be fun to, like, have. They have little bunny ears, little bunny poof, so cute. So we've got some candy. I need to put in some of the actual stuffing. I haven't finished that just yet, not quite yet anyway, and I'm obsessed with these, and they're gonna use them. It'll be, like, their little name plate, and then also for the Easter egg hunt, and then I'm also putting in our little needlepoint canvas for my needlepointers, and if you're not a needlepointer, you get a fidget spinner, and then also I stuffed it with candy, and then the D-Home magazine that Harrison is in because it's just the cutest thing ever, so it's time to celebrate. I've really become such an Easter girl. I feel like Molly, because Molly is, like, the OG Easter lover. She's always loved Easter, and now I'm obsessed with it, and also I understand her a little bit more because, like, when you live somewhere freezing cold, I get why Easter would be exciting because it's, like, the start of hope again. You know what I mean? Okay, guys, like, I am obsessed with these. How fun and cute! Oh, my God, the cutest thing ever, love. I've obviously planned this dinner party in my hosting journal, which is in front of my, by the way, I designed it. It's a dinner party journal. It's so fabulous. Like, let me show you guys the Ina Garten one I did. It's so cute. I need to go back still and junk journal. I've been keeping stuff, but I didn't use this because I have, like, 30 people here, but it was so fabulous and perfect. Anyway, all that to say, I have my seating chart done, so I'm gonna go ahead and do this. I normally would have this done a little bit far in advance, but it's been a weird week. What? Thank you so much. Yeah, I love you. Some really exciting treats from, well, they're not from, but, what? Isn't she stunning? Oh, yes. Obsessed. This is, like, my first Needlepoint cafe. Yeah, I know. Well, I almost didn't put you in the Needlepoint group for stuff, but I figured it was time. So I, yeah, this is perfect. That's why we have D-Home in there, because Harrison's in there. This will be my first Needlepoint cafe. It'd be perfect. Okay, come on out. Not yet, come on out. There's no limit on the Easter egg hunt. Guys, I am gonna be grading based off who I think wants it the most. Yeah, yeah. Okay, are you guys ready? Two, one, go! Oh, let's see! I feel like I'm cheating right now. Drink it. Yeah. Nobody else can reach it. Yeah, pillows. Pillows. Well, you actually did a really good job. Good morning, guys. I'm drinking my coffee. It is now 11 a.m. this morning. Oh my God, I started a new book, and for some reason, my Kindle isn't letting me, which is probably for the best. My Kindle's not letting me download anything past a sample, so I'm gonna try to download it from my laptop. It's called Strangers. I'm sure you guys have seen it, maybe. It's been everywhere. I saw Morgan Stewart read it, and finally, I was like, okay, I'm gonna read it, because I feel like just in the past five days, it's popping up everywhere. It's a memoir on this woman who gets divorced, and that might sound depressing, but apparently it's the greatest book ever. It reminds me of this other book by Renee Carlino. Let me, I was actually just telling Charlie about that. Let me find the name of this book. If you are in the mood for, it's called This Used to Be Us. If you are in the mood for a book that is just gonna make you sob and feel, like just a depressing, emotional book that's really beautiful, such a good one. Anyway, that's obviously a fiction, or not obviously, but that's a fiction book. In the book that I'm reading now, I could, it's so good, the first 10%. I could've sat there and read it in one sitting, and that's what everyone is saying. They read it in a day, and I, if I didn't have a billion things to do today, I would be doing that. So anyway, I have some design, production meetings this morning, and then I have a lot of just like editing and things I need to get done, and so does Sierra, thank God. So we're gonna do a little co-working situation, and then tonight we are doing our launch event at Mimi's. So Charlie, Sierra, and I are gonna head over there at like six, and I'm really excited. I actually need to tape 25 campuses. Still, I hate taping campuses. It's like my least favorite thing. Anyway, Charlie just made me some beautiful breakfast. I'm drinking my coffee, and we're just getting things done. Hi, y'all, me again. Okay, done with my calls for the day. Just been getting so much stuff going, going, happening, whatever. Anyway, Tuesdays are like my favorite days of the work week because I have our production call, and it's just the best time. It's so much fun. I also need to turn the slide off because it keeps dying. Also, guys, I should buy this top, right? This is for my Newly subscription. I need to see. My last Newly subscription, I don't even know what to say about it. Ralph Lauren, all Frankie's bikinis, I need. I'm definitely keeping that yellow sweater from Frankie's bikinis, and then when you try it and you see how much you wear it, I wear it like every single day, you end up being able to buy it off them for cheaper. Like how amazing is that? So I'll be doing that. I need to look into the pricing, but I also want to keep this because how just amazing is this, so classic. Anyway, I just got a package in from J.Crew. They had a sale over the weekend, and I made an order. Stuff has already come in, and I'm loving this stuff. So the silk pants that I got a couple weeks ago, they were in Chartreuse. How many of them say that right? The bright green. They're really great. The problem with silk pants is that they just always wrinkle but they're so comfortable, and I need a silk pant for spring and summer because what if I'm not tanned? You know what I mean? I don't wanna wear, you know, I'm not gonna wear shorts when my legs aren't tanned, so. Anyway, I got these in navy. Love them. They're cut, and the fit of these is perfect. I need these to be my Sims character look, and I need every single color. I also got them in this really pretty pink blush color, which I think will be really, really fun. And then I got three tops. So this one is this cashmere striped top. I clearly love a stripe, but imagine this with my pearls and my tennis knuckles on top. Isn't that just everything? I'm obsessed with that. So that is that. And then we have two more tops. Just this blue cashmere sweater top. I know I'm gonna get really good wear out of this. I'm not, I don't have, like, amazing tops. Like, that is definitely where I feel like I need to do, like, an override in my closet. Like, I keep a lot of tops. I don't wear a lot of tops, so. Anyway, then I have this one. That's this white long-sleeve top, and I feel like it's kind of the perfect cut. Like, I'm just obsessed with that. So good. These bags are kind of everything. The first one being, like, so up my alley this year with all the fun bags that I've been purchasing. But this star bag, how good is that, guys? Like, that is truly everything to me. And then I also have this little drawstring bag with the brown beads, which I think is just so fun, and I love that. So, anyway, that's my little mini J.Crew haul. I need to get some more work done. Sierra is coming over. We're gonna do a little co-working session, and then we are heading off to my Moomins event in a couple of hours. So I'm really excited about that. I probably need to steam these pants, because I almost want to change and, like, wear this as my outfit instead with this bag that I got from my Vivrelle. Like, how cute is that? Obsessed with this look. And some navy or black ballet flats. But, like, guys, it's just, like, the thing about silk pants, like, what do you do? Because even when you steam them, they wrinkle again. Like, I don't even know what to do about that. So, updates to come on that, guys. We'll see, but I think that's, like, more of my vibe for tonight instead of this. So we'll see. All right, guys, we made it to Mimi. So the needlepoint event. We are here a little early. It's very bright. I am driving Charlie's car, and, like, you would think, guys, I'm 15 years old, and I just stole my parents' car and, like, don't know how to drive. Like, it's actually crazy. How perfect. Hi! Guys, I just got back from my workout. I'm about to post that our dolly of the month is live. I'm so excited. The event last night was so much fun. I actually finished stitching my dolly. We will talk about that soon. I am being a businesswoman right now, and I need to get this video up. Oh my gosh, there's already so many people on the site. And we're live! Okay, we've upped the quantity on these a ton, so I'm really hoping that they actually are able to stay on the site at least longer than they have previously. Let's see how much... This is really crazy. We're seven minutes in. We're going through a lot of inventory, but I do feel better about the fact that, one, they didn't sell in three minutes. I mean, they will probably be gone today, I would assume. The goal of Friend of Mine, especially with Needlepoint, is not to have all this stuff just sell out immediately, like, whatsoever. I feel like I talk about this in every single video, and it's, like, every single meeting. There is a worldwide canvas shortage, so it's not even the fact of, like, we want to be ordering in thousands of units of Needlepoint like we are with our other product, but with Needlepoint, even when I place orders of way higher quantities, they won't even allow it to happen because people that are printing the canvases do not even have enough canvas. Now, we do have a good setup, and I feel good about the coming months, but just know, one, especially with the Dolly of the Month, this is a new thing that we're doing monthly. We are open to looking into subscription for 2027. I will not do that, though, unless I have on hand the actual physical canvas sitting there designated for those things, so we're not waiting, because normally you'd be able to, like, have, you know, quarter one printed at once, quarter two printed at once. Like, I cannot risk that, period. Also, if we were to do a subscription, I can't guarantee that, so basically, unless I have enough canvas on hand, I will not be doing a subscription, and I'm hoping to just be able to buy outright enough canvas on hand, and that will be really great, and I'm hoping to get way higher quantities. Same thing goes with just our standard canvases, and to do regular restocks. Like, by no means am I trying to do some sort of, like, scarcity drop brand. Like, that's really not at all what I'm trying to do. Needlepoint is facing unprecedented times right now. Like, I had three and a half hours of callings yesterday night just, like, problem solving with things and what we're gonna do, but oh my god, we're already halfway through inventory, and we're 10 minutes in. For contacts, we did order, like, eight to 10X what we normally do for canvases. It just gets crazier. While we're here, and I'm waiting, look at how cute the dolly is. I went with a full velvet vibe. I think I'm gonna make these into ornaments, and then I'm gonna do ruffles around them, as I'm doing with, like, pretty much all of my ornaments. Will I get tired of every single ornament having a ruffle on it? I don't know, but at the same time, it's like, do you get tired of every ornament having cording on it? I don't know, but I'm obsessed with her. I did it all in velvet, like I said. Oh my god. Guys, last night at the event, so much fun, and it was so cool to see how you guys stitched them. Someone did velvet French knots for the hair. I'm so angry I didn't see that and copy her. Like, that is so genius. Anyway, for our, like, four by four OG dolly, the cowgirl dolly, the ones that I stitched, I'm gonna do all of those in this, like, similar, like, it's all gonna be, like, fuzzy stuff, and then a corduroy background stitch, so those will all be cohesive, except for the outfits. Like, her outfits will change, but how I stitched dolly and then the background will always be the same. For the 13 mesh, like, dollies that are our monthly dollies, I'm gonna do these, just fun, different decorative stitches. These are gonna be, like, crazier ornaments. Will I eventually have 100 chickens ornaments, like, needlepoint ornaments on my tree? Yes, I will, and I wouldn't have it any other way, so. Anyway, she is everything to me. I am obsessed with her. Okay, one needle minder left, only 34 canvases left, and it's 1014. This is crazy. Thanks so much, guys. Genuinely, when I was stitching this last night, though, I will say, like, it just brought me so much joy. I was like, this is amazing. This is sounding so annoying if you weren't able to get one, I know, but keep in mind that we're gonna be doing these every single month, so the first of every month at 10 a.m. Central, set your calendars, try the book. We only have one needle minder left and 33 canvases. Isn't that crazy? It's only been 15, one needle minder and 30, yeah. That's insane. I know. That's actually insane. That's, like, actually wild. Needle minders are sold out, 26 left. This is crazy. 30 minutes in and everything is gone. We actually did get a needle minder restock, though, that was delivered yesterday, so I'm gonna be able to restock a bunch of other stuff, but, which is why you should always, always, always get on the restock list on our sites. I'm constantly just adding, like, I'll get texts in the warehouse being like, we have 20 of these that we just found, and I'll add it, and then they get sold out within two seconds from the restock list, but I've already placed a bunch of messages to some printers being like, is there any chance we are going, like, we can get double this order for next time? I'm trying my best. Like, I'm absolutely trying my best, and I'm just so happy. Like, I'm really excited. I obviously, this is a good problem to have, but I hate, like, I know what it feels like when, like, people who don't need a pointer are gonna be like, okay, shut up, whatever, but you have a get when, like, you wanna buy something and it's not there. I understand that it's frustrating. We are really trying our best, so anyway, guys, like, this has been crazy. Good morning, guys. It is time to get dressed. I'm actually heading off to a friend of mine's shoot. We are shooting Tabletop. The vlogs really always know what we're doing. It is launching soon. We've been working on Tabletop for, I think, a year and a half. It's crazy how hard it is to get, like, Tabletop done. You would think that that would be, like, an easier one, but it's just, like, so massive, so anyway, I'm actually freezing. Like, I'm actually so cold. Well, yesterday, I just sat, and I worked, and I worked, and I worked, and there was nothing to vlog. Not very interesting. I've kind of been living in this jacket. It's perfect for spring. Why does this have to have a lipstick stain on it? I'm wearing it. I don't care. All right, this is gonna be the fit. These jeans are too big, but whatever. I don't care. I'm not changing. Here's my fit for my shoot today. I think it's really cute, actually, so I need to go charge this camera, because it's dying. All right, guys, that was a bit of a fail, because I left my camera battery charger, like, on the charger while I was gone. Not that I could've filmed much anyway, because we were shooting, like, unreleased product, but successful morning. Feeling good about that. We have, I know I keep saying this, but it's just about to be so crazy, and we have drop, after drop, after drop, really starting, like, end of April, so I'm trying to get together, like, all this stuff, and there's so much travel with some other stuff that's happening, so I'm trying to get a lot together, but I did pick up two things from Zeno's that I had fixed, so I took in these Chanel flasks that I got from the RealReal, like, years ago. I took them in to get resold, because the sole did fall off of them, like, they just broke, and now they're good as new. They even went in and kinda cleaned them up a little bit, and they look much, much better, so I love these. And then, I'm gonna put you up here, because it's so dark. I got this bag, it's a Prada bag from a retail shop, probably four or five years ago, and the strap broke. It was, like, completely, almost fully off, and I had them fix it, and they said it was gonna be super obvious. You literally cannot even tell, but it's just this very classic black leather bag. It's just, it's great. It's just very classic, and I got a great deal on it, and I just wanted to get it fixed, and now it is fixed. How fabulous. I'm also so excited. Some of my garden is being installed right now, or planted, and then, my landscaping install is officially April 18th. I need to figure out the exact pots that I wanna get for over here. I really want the wicker pots, but I can't have them over there anyway, because they need to be under something outside, so I don't know exactly what I'm gonna do. I'm gonna go shopping, probably next week, and just figure it out, but this is gonna be a whole new yard. Oh my God, it's gonna be perfect. All right, y'all, it is now 7 p.m., and I'm heading off to dinner with some of my girlfriends. Why did I just say girlfriends? I actually sound like I'm 50. Anyway, here's what I'm wearing. This is a staple wardrobe outfit, because it's pieces that I wear almost every single day. Okay, this dress is from Reformation. I have it in a white and blue floral, and I have it in this. It's the most flattering cut ever. I wore the other one on the 32nd day with Charlie, and he still talks about the dress, but it is the most flattering dress ever. If it's still available, I cannot recommend it to you enough. I have worn both of them so many times. They are just such good, stable dresses. They cut perfectly in both ways. Right here, it's a really flattering cut, and then on your leg, it's a really flattering cut, and I just love the dress. This coat that I wore earlier, like I said, Revolve, it's not available anymore, but I can link similar ones. This one's Lovers and Friends, but it's just the perfect spring coat. My buttery yellow bag that I'm obsessed with, and then my Margaux buttery yellow belly flats that I've been wearing nonstop. For jewelry, I am Orate. My tennis necklace and tennis bracelet are both Orate. Pearl earrings are Orate, and then I just got this one I was wearing earlier from Electric Picks, and I love this, but I'm really excited for this weekend. I need to get a bunch of house stuff done tomorrow. It's just been like, oh, I say this every single second, but so much is going on in front of my right now, so there's not that much to vlog because I've just been working, and prepping, and prepping, and prepping. Anyway, my garden has kind of started to take some shape, and then tomorrow I need to prep because my grandpa and my step grandma are coming over tomorrow. They're in town this week, and they're gonna come see the house. I'm gonna cook them lunch. It's gonna be a whole thing, and then Charlie has some friends in town tomorrow, so we're gonna go see them and do a bunch of stuff, so. Anyway, I'm off right now for a girls' dinner with my girlfriends because apparently I say that now. Anyway, I did get these two from Electric Picks, and I think that they're so pretty. The problem is that I think I lost my second hole, and I would love to be able to double stack these. How classy would that be? Need to get on that. Anyway, I just have been, and if Charlie and I are talking about this, I'm like, I don't know what is in the water recently, but I am so overly exhausted, lethargic tired, not like, oh, I'm exhausted, I work. No, it's just like, I'm so tired, and I just don't have it. I don't know, I'm like, I have nothing to say, and then I just hit a slump, and I can't get out of it. I've just been so tired all the time, and I know sometimes it just comes and goes, and it'll go away, and then I'll be like, okay, I'm on it, but recently, I'm like, what is going on with me? Anyway, at least I don't like my outfit stuff. You know, that's a win. Another day, another vlog clip in the closet. Like, you know when you're speaking, and your mind just goes blank? Anyway, today's Friday, it's Good Friday. My grandparents are coming over for lunch very soon, so I'm just straightening up the house. I just got from my workout. I need to start cooking. I'm gonna put a chicken roast in the oven. They gave me the world's smallest chicken, guys. Like, thank God there's not that many of us, and I have other things, but I'm not kidding, it's like the smallest chicken. Anyway, I just got ready, and I wanted to show you guys a little haul of these accessories. I've been taking you guys through this journey of how I'm really curating my dream closet. I made a vision board that's in there, and a lot of it, I realize I like either really classic fits like what I'm wearing now, where it's just like classy, not like traditional, but you know what I mean. Also, my pants, guys. I'm wearing this little pants again, and like, they're wrinkly. Like, what am I gonna do, you know? Or I like really bold pieces, like this grape clutch, this tomato clutch, like really weird, crazy things. Okay, so there's just like, there's two sides to this style, right? And these just look beautiful out on display. Like, I'm obsessed with them. Anyway, I did just get some stuff in the mail, both of which align with like both styles. From Joanna, they sent me two brooches. Guys, I always said brooches growing up. It was always brooches, but why is it brooches now? I don't know, but they're these little buttons, and I'm obsessed with buttons right now. Little buttons for brooches, and I'm obsessed with that. Like, how cute. I'm gonna be adding this stuff all the time. Like, I'm really into a brooch. And then from Essie Collection, which is one of my favorite jewelry brands, the best jewelry brand, in my opinion, for more like eclectic, crazier, more statement pieces. They just have the cutest stuff. I made a huge order from them like two summers ago, and I lived in that stuff every single day, and they just have the best stuff ever. So first up, this is just so cute. It's gonna be so cute for travel, like all my like beach trips and stuff. Okay, this necklace, I'm obsessed with. Like, how fun is that? So good. I really need better jewelry storage. I just cannot figure out what I like for jewelry storage, and I'm a very visual person. I need it to be laid out like in front of me very, like I can't have it on top of each other stacked. I just can't quite figure it out. But anyway, next thing I got, this is everything, guys. Look at how incredible this is. Like, imagine a white maxi skirt, white tank top in this. Like, this is everything. And then I got a couple more pieces. I haven't even gone through this one yet. Okay, so for this, I don't know how I'm going to style it exactly, but it's just this really fun like thing with castles, and you can just, you know, play with it, do whatever you want. Honestly, add it to a bag, I think would be really cute as a little bag charm. Like, how fun would that be? But I don't know. I didn't have anything like this, and I'm like, that is perfect. And then this necklace, which I think is just so cute and so perfect for summer. So that's my update on my curating my dream wardrobe. I think I'm doing a great job shopping this year, truly. Okay, I'm going to go get my house in order. I can't decide how I want to do this. Dog, you don't need another dog. I think your chances are, are probably really, really low. Very embarrassing. Guys, I'm so happy right now, because my new dress from Yellow the Label just came in. I've been waiting for this dress for, it feels like weeks. When I saw it on their Instagram, I'm like, I know I need to have it. I wish I was going to the masters. It's the most insane dress ever. It is so beautiful. I'm sad because I have this top coming in. It's like this baby doll top with rabbits, and it's so perfect and amazing. And I ordered it like six weeks ago, and I knew it was a six week wait, so there was a chance I wouldn't have it by Easter. It's getting delivered on Monday, so I will be missing it for Easter. But this is the next best thing. I mean, look at this outfit. The detailing on this dress is unreal. Oh my God, I'm just so obsessed with Yellow the Label right now. It's so good. My grandparents just left. We had a nice little lunch. Here's what I'm wearing. We're gonna go to get some dinner and drinks with some of Charlie's friends. Also, a little update on my canvas. So I haven't been making as much progress as I wanted to. I finished all of the green, and I'm working up on the fence. I really want the fence done as soon as possible, and then I can just fill everything else in. I have made very good progress on this, but not like my insane times that I have. Honestly, they still haven't been crazy, but I feel like I could just be doing more. You know what I mean? But I also read the book Strangers, which, guys, have we talked about Strangers? I don't even know. If you are a woman in this world, you need to read the book Strangers. It was unbelievable. It's a memoir of this woman's divorce. She is a very wealthy woman who is essentially like a nepo baby. It doesn't read that way at all, but she has this really crazy, also, she doesn't come across that way at all. That's just the facts of her life, but she has this really crazy, awful divorce, and it is such an interesting book. It is so well-written. I just, oh my God, it is everywhere, and everyone who's talking about it, it's such a good book clip book because it opens so much discussion around marriage and trust and finances and prenups and all the things, which is so fascinating. It was so interesting, and it was such a good book. I read it in 36 hours. I would've read it in one sitting had I had the time. Seriously, it was unbelievable. I really cannot recommend it enough. It was so good.
