Weekend Musings | July 19, 2026
In my heart and in my cart + other things
In My Heart -
+July Leo // My birthday is coming up and all of my platforms are generously serving me “July Leo” content. Oh and it’s all complimentary of course, so I’m enjoying it.
+Related: The astrology of July.
+Plan for the week, via VS how I'll actually operate this week via.
**
+Personally not accepting any of the forced fall content that is rolling out in MID-JULY (!!!). Includes all back to school and end of season sales. Go to hell, marketers. We get 3 months, okay?
+Life lately // boat days, boat sammies, beverages al fresco, becoming so extremely tan and not being humble about it, always smelling like SPF, gossiping while standing in the lake, working with the windows open, citronella candles burning, etc etc etc.
In My Cart -
+I found Fleishman is in Troubleat my local used book store and scooped it up so fast. The last time I was truly, truly, obsessed with a book was in the middle of Long Island Compromise, written by the same author. My expectations are high!
+$11 for this BaubleBar dupe. $11!!!
+Stars in my eyes! This enamel ring is so cute.
+The Northern Lights for your fingertips.
+I can’t believe this striped linen skirtis at Target. I suspect it will go fast.
+Refreshing my press-ons with these.
+I do not need more flip-flops. I do not. I do not.
Other Things -
+Outfit Inspo. Very into scarfs right now!
+Creative inspo. Also very into bedazzling everything.
+Related: enjoying really random hobbies right now. I like to put on a podcast or throw a movie on the projector screen (literally a white twin-size bedsheet taped to the wall) and sit outside in the evenings. Gimme some glue and beads and oh, what a night. This is what summer 2026 will feel like forever.
+Influencers aren’t your friends. They’re advertisers.
+Really enjoyed this actual 90’s mom who napped every day. “My mom personally had four kids, a ponytail, and absolutely zero interest in optimizing anyone’s development before noon”
