Recent Moments, Including The Adult Version Of The First Day Of School Cafeteria


For the first time in as long as I can remember, I was seated at a dinner table with all strangers. Last night I had the immense joy of joining ShopMy and Alex Mill , along with Grace Atwood , for a dinner at Merci here in Charleston. Merci is one of my favorite restaurants downtown, and it’s very tiny with maybe seven or so tables. When I found my name card, I saw that I was seated with four other people that I had never met. I’ll be honest I did have a little bit of anxiety wondering how I would trudge through two hours of conversation, especially as I looked around at all of my friends being seated at tables near each other. Anyone else relate to that feeling?

Worth noting, I was easily the oldest person at my table by I bet an average of 10 to 15 years. But instead of feeling odd one out, I felt oddly lit up. It’s fun to be around people who are earlier in their careers. I left more energized than I have after a dinner in a long time, and I think it had everything to do with being “the elder” at the table. I made 4 new fun friends. It’s nice to step out of your comfort zone.

There was also a Hart Hagerty charm pop up. I chose the new the evil eye charm, among a few new ones that haven’t launched yet that I’ll share soon!!

Here’s the lady Hart herself. What a queen. You can spy a sneak peek of a fun collab necklace she’s launching soon….

As I mentioned in my weekly rounds, I broke down and ordered this sweater. It’s everything and more. If you’ve considered it, consider this your sign.

Loved meeting Rose and the rest of the team from Alex Mill at the Cooper yesterday. What a fun team. ALSO I had no idea that Alex Mill is Mickie Drexler’s son! They were so kind to let me choose a gifted piece, and seeing as how I already have the taylor sweater I picked out this crewneck marais cashmere sweater! Heaven!!

Found a perfect mini fall leather bag for under $200. I love the design so much, I carried this to dinner last night.
