The Big Shirt from Dancing Kind
It gets me compliments Every. Single. Time. And it’s light as air on days when it’s a swim to go outside. Chic as hell.
Magnetic Clips from IKEA
These are sturdy, pretty, and great for holding a postcard or a list or a photo strip… plus they give off an air of considered design without breaking the bank ✨
Being a Sober Person
From one internet stranger to another: I stopped drinking in November 2019. I didn’t hit any particular rock bottom; just recognized that I was doing heavy-lifting to make alcohol make sense in my life when it brought on tons of anxiety and regret in any quantity. The main thing I gained is (sorry for the 🧀) everything? Clarity is the best way I can put it. You get to come home to yourself and chase down what you actually like to do and how you want to fill your days. Life will still life at you, but I’d rather hold that with both hands and move through it and remember it all. An early days thing I did was collect a list of people I admire who are also sober. Made me feel like I had some pals in common. Happy to chat more/share more if this is useful ♥️
