SMILE

June 29, 2018

Listen: Smile by Saba

Squad, I’m out west preparing for a week OFF, but wanted to leave you with some summer reading while I’m gone. Given that I’m cultivating the leisure mindset, it’s is all about things that have gone luxury. Meanwhile, Smile from Saba: both song and instruction (though clearly he is not following his own advice– you can do better).

Yeah so dental care has gone high end

Silk bristles, floss delivery, activated charcoal toothpaste. Why? “Because you’re worth it,” basically. If you have disposable income, why not level up and feel like a queen? Read the v good Garage piece on this by the v funny Alex Ronan.

More interesting: the luxury durag

This BK company L’Enchanteur has started making super nice durags– first, to help them last longer, and second, to help the durag along into the fashion future where people style them differently and use them in new kinds of ensembles. Fad or phenom?

One more thing gone luxury: your home $

If instagram potential crosses your mind when you consider buying housewares, Havenly might be for you. For $79, they help you partner with a designer to create a space you want to be in. Take the design quiz online and get $25 off a full design package with code LOREM. Expires 7/31.

(Just imagine me reading this in Jon Favreau’s voice.)

Happy weekend, happy 4th, and be back on the 11th.
