By Association

The other night, I was walking home from dinner when I was struck by an awesomely overwhelming thought…

… It was regarding just HOW much cool shit my friends are doing. Like, really cool shit.

Here’s a few examples: Grace’s collaboration with BaubleBar is killer, as is Hitha’s Quarterly box (which is like Birchbox, but for travel).

Nicolette just announced her clothing collab with Modcloth, Jess’s influence has made me fall head-over-heels for Capwell + Co — and of course, I can’t get enough of Carly’s custom creations for Minnie & Emma. (I have this phone case.)

Don’t you just feel more important when your friends are doing cool things? It’s like, popular by association. So thanks for that, guys.

In addition, my friend Mackenzie is celebrating her birthday by offering 25% off everything in her store, Design Darling. Use the code BIRTHDAYBASH to shop the sale — and get to it before everything sells out (it’s her biggest promotion of the entire year)!

Here’s a few of my favorites from the store (below) — I already have the monogram pencil cup and I’m definitely scooping up this basket tote.
