It’s baaaack! The J.Crew catalog has returned after 7 long years. This new iteration will only come out a few times a year and will be sent to fewer mailboxes, but it still reminds me of the classic publication I used to be a part of. Unlike the past editions, the relaunched J.Crew catalog will…
It’s time to shift gears. The hot days of summer are behind us, and the early fall chill has begun. I am swapping out the flip-flops for flats and grabbing a sweater in the mornings. But I am trying to hold on to the summer glow for as long as possible! These days feel like…
It happened again– I went down the Etsy rabbit hole searching for a vintage gold charm (it is not hard to get sucked in and find yourself browsing for hours). Searching for a fun bit of jewelry, leopard accessory, or hostess gift is an entertaining challenge for me– and the hunt is always more rewarding when I…
Each time I visit the library, I refer to my Goodreads list of books I want to check out. Because this list grows faster than I can read, there are so many titles that I never get to, so they are essentially forgotten—until now. I am again revisiting my long list of books on my…
I was all set to publish a book blast post before noticing a HUGE Shopbop sale going on now. For three days only, get 20% off on so many excellent wear-now styles (use code TAKE20 at checkout). There are so many items in the sale that I decided to focus on neutral shades that can…
In honor of my August birthday, here’s another Leo Lion post! Since the lion is the other big cat in my life (move over leopard; it’s summer), I love a good excuse to purchase just one more. My mom and sister are also Leos, so gift-giving is definitely on my mind. Below are a few…
Would it be summer on W&W without a nod to some kick-ass bronzers? Attaining that sun-kissed look without the damage of the sun is tricky, but I have found some key products that make it easy and look natural. Whether it’s a self-tanning product for the body, a serum that mixes with moisturizer, or just…
My birthday is this week, so I am compiling a no-holds-barred list of goodies (more like a lust list). My teenage son is usually in charge of my present, so I am not sure any of these will be considered, so I may have to treat myself (the dress is on sale afterall). Nevertheless, it’s…
Meet Me
Welcome to Whit & Whimsy- a lifestyle space I created to share my favorite books, beauty buys, fashion, and more. I post about trusted products I love, items I lust after, and treasures I give as gifts. Expect to hear about the latest thriller read, maxi dress, simple meal, and best new mascara-- and there will always be a touch of leopard print, and a monogram or two. I hope to connect with readers by offering inspiration and suggestions through content that is classic, chic, shoppable, and a bit whimsical.
