Happy Friday! I am jumping on the Barbie movie bandwagon and rounding up some fun pink items in honor of the doll that started it all. From fuschia dresses to bubblegum Birkenstocks and some pops of pink blush too. The only thing missing is Ken…
Last month’s Book Blast featured page-turners for the beach, and today I am following up that selection with an equally literary (insert air quotes here) group of steamy romance picks, all appropriate for the heat of the summer. Enjoy the escapism and let the sizzling chemistry between characters ignite your imagination. You can thank me…
August has arrived, and so we head to the beach with my extended family (goodbye Maine, hello Hamptons). It’s time to bust out my straw hat, load up on SPF, grab a stack of books, and hit the beach. Below are the items I will be throwing into my boat & tote bag this year!…
Happy Friday! This week’s post is all about dorm room essentials. I am sure that if you have a college-bound or boarding-school teen you have probably been bombarded with checklists of things you will need to bring to create the perfect home away from home. In addition to all the linens and towels, we send…
Now that I have exhausted the dress market, it’s time to hit the shoes– and just in time for Shopbop’s summer shoe sale (up to 70% off). Looking for a pretty wedge, a simple sandal, or a fun flat- now is the time to check out brands like Loeffler Randall, Staud, and Alexandre Birman. I…

Happy weekend! It is HOT HOT HOT here in Connecticut, so I am staying inside until further notice! And to keep me busy I will be hitting ULTA to celebrate National Lipstick Day (no joke) with 40% off lip products– think lip liner, lipstick, gloss, and lip balms. Below is a special Saturday Snippets focusing…
Next week is my birthday, 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 actually be considered, so I may have to treat myself. Nevertheless, it’s fun to compile anyway (a…
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.
