This week’s Friday Faves is all about next week’s holiday weekend. Typically, we usher in Summer with a perfectly patriotic weekend full of parades, picnics, and celebrations– all the while decked out in a little red, white, and blue. Heading to a friend’s beach house and need a hostess gift? Try this. Looking for an…
It’s time for the obligatory summer sunblock post! Months filled with sunshine mean sunscreen every day (no matter what) and each season I like to update my stock.

Move over LBD, it’s time for the Little WHITE Dress. The summer white dress is the item in my wardrobe that I reach for most often– it’s flattering and comfortable and can basically go anywhere and look appropriate. And who doesn’t like a little lace or eyelet in the summer? To help jump-start your white…
Happy May–I hope you had a chilled margarita for Cinco de Mayo yesterday! Now it’s time to relax, recover, and enjoy the next batch of snippets, from a Coronation to eye cream, and always a little leopard. Catch up on the All The Royal Fashion From King Charles III’s Coronation. The bottom line on eye…
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.
