What is my idea of heaven? A crackling fire, a glass of red wine, and a good old-fashioned mystery (and maybe a bowl of ice cream too). I recently read the latest from Ruth Ware One by One, and just like the title suggests, characters are found dead, one by one, with the ultimate reveal…
Kathleen is a lifestyle blogger, who I connected with on Instagram a few years ago. We share book recommendations, favorite rosé wines, and now simple recipes (we are also fellow dog moms)!

My all-time favorite turtleneck by 360Cashmere is a loose-fitting, drapey, ultra-soft sweater that I loved so much I bought it in 4 colors. When it became discontinued, I scoured eBay, determined to find replacements. Now, after many…
Every once in a while I come across an influencer that I like so much I want to share them with all my friends (remember Gothamista, Korean beauty expert Renée Chow?). My recent YouTube favorite is Portland-based aesthetician Penny Smith of Penn.Smith.Skincare. Not only does she cover standard concerns (like vitamin C and SPF), but…

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.
