I tend to prefer claw clips, but if I was looking for a new barrette, this pretty one from Lele Sadoughi would be at the top of my list.
I like the arrangement of the stones — having five opposed to three feels a lot more luxe.
The barrette is $75, at Nordstrom.

This is pretty. My hair is thin/fine and I have a feeling that I don’t have enough hair to hold it up and that its weight would pull it down / off. I’ve always loved nice hair accessories though. If only I had good hair.
Anyone familiar with Hawaii and have a sense of whether we should be planning on canceling an early October trip to Kauai given the hurricane there? The initial reports I saw were pretty bad and I obviously don’t want to be in the way, but I don’t have a sense of what the likely recovery timeline is. Everything is fully refundable.
I would probably cancel. Kauai has basically one road around the island and I understand that it’s pretty damaged. The state will likely try to reduce the tourism impact and get fixes underway ASAP but early October is really close.
Does anyone here use Fidelity beyond the minimum interactions like if you have a 401K?
What do people think of Sydney Sweeney’s sports ad?
She needs to go away. I’m sure it will happen soon enough given who she has associated with.
Very disheartening and not inspiring in the least. She’s allowed to do whatever she wants and we’re allowed to criticize it.
