Happy Friday followers- this week’s post is all about the bright neon items I have been seeing lately (bringing me back to my Esprit days). Even Hermés is hopping on the trend with some new vivid lip oils. Vibrant pinks, oranges, and greens can be whimsical yet tasteful, and there is nothing like a nice…
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.

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.
