The summer sunshine is here, and it’s time to reflect that change with makeup updates.

During the summer, I like to switch up my makeup, rotating in vivid corals (like this Ami Colé blush stick)…
Move over LBD; it’s time for the Little WHITE Dress.

Roses are red, and violets are blue. I love a whimsical motif, too! Floral prints are all the rage, so I rounded up my favorite flower picks for you. I love these themed posts (like this pineapple one) because they are fun for me to do, and visually, I like them too. From fashion to…

Happy weekend! It’s been a scorching hot couple of days here in CT, so it’s time to relax in the air conditioning and browse a few snippets. I hope you enjoy them- from thrillers to totes and always a little bit of leopard. The latest Riley Sager book arrived! I preordered Middle of the Night…
Happy Friday! The Fourth of July holiday weekend is fast approaching and I am so excited to celebrate with my extended Whitney family, enjoying some fun in the sun (and a margarita or two). Wherever you are during the fourth, I hope you get time to relax (maybe with some retail therapy). Below are some…
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.
