Weekend Reading 06.06.26

It’s not full-on Juneuary here in Vancouver, but it’s also not a warm summer…yet. We did roll the portable air conditioners up from storage, but that turned out to have been wishful thinking.

Bestsellers this week, what you loved:

• My Open Edit white cotton bubble midi skirt…which I haven’t managed to snap a photo of for you yet. I own 2 white bubble skirts and just adore how fun they feel to wear. This one is less than half the price of my other one, and looks identical.

• No one will be surprised to hear that my cushioned, stable, low platform wedge sandals were the biggest seller again this week. I’m glad I bought the black pair too because they go with so much of my wardrobe. So many readers have written to report they love how comfy they are, too!

• My Tommy Bahama embroidered dress is also still flying out the door. It’s such a great piece, you could even wear it as a bathing suit cover-up if you like.

• These Ippolita Drop Earrings from Nordstrom Rack were also a bestseller last week. I love this brand, which is designed by a woman. I caved and bought the Chianti! Yes, a red earring…I couldn’t help myself, and I refuse to justify them. Sometimes, you just know.

• This gorgeous Trellis Outdoor Rug was also very popular this week. I shared my beige one a few weeks ago, and you ladies went crazy for the trellis pattern… which has me rethinking my choice! Remember, you can use code AWSL 15 to save 15% off.

• This Relief Eby bra was also a big seller this week. I’m not well-endowed, but I insist that my bras be comfortable. This one is wireless and amazingly comfortable. It’s quickly become the bra I reach for above all others.

Picks from the weekend sales:

CHICO’S has a great sale this week with 40% off two or more full-priced items and select styles starting at $39.

• This no-iron tie-dye linen shirt would look great with some white shorts or over a casual skirt.
• This is exactly the type of airy cardigan I like to tie over my sleeveless tops and dresses.
• I think this obrè striped dress looks perfect for a cruise or traveling! You could even top it with the cardigan above.
• I love the look of these striped boyfriend jeans, and the hem is finished… yay!

SOFT SURROUNDINGS has some lovely things on sale this weekend:

EILEEN FISHER’s sale section is full of goodies. Here’s what I spotted on sale:

• This terrific cotton poplin shirt that I bought a few months ago is now marked down in several colors. I bought a petite, but I should have bought the regular because my arms are long.
• This is the perfect time of year for a gorgeous Peruvian cotton sweater, which comes in 3 colors.
• These washable knit silk tanks are my favorite layering piece…all year round, so I love to snap them up on sale.
• I have this ponte blazer in blue and wear it all. the. time! Now on sale in black or white.

ANN TAYLOR summer event is on with 40% off your purchase.

COLDWATER CREEK has some bestsellers on sale:

TALBOTS always has a great sale running on the weekend. Here’s what caught my eye:

In case you missed it:

• Why your travel wardrobe should look like you.
• Talbots early summer try-on.
• How to dress confidently over 60.
• What to pack for a cruise…my personal formula.

Have a fabulous weekend, and be sure to wear what makes you feel confident.
