Fixations, May 2026
Things I'm [this close] to buying
Last week I wrote about my current visual fixations—the things I keep seeing, saving, and coming back to—and as I was writing it, I noticed how many of those personal trends were reflected in the things I’ve put on my wish list over the last few weeks. I guess that’s how it goes, isn’t it? I see something a handful of times, it makes itself comfy in my brain, and eventually it gets translated into the things I buy. A vicious (and yet, painfully delicious) cycle.
So as a follow up, I’ve put together curated edit of items inspired by each of those themes. It’s a bit of a grab bag! There’s a selection of Prada-inspired taffeta (including a few vintage and secondhand Prada pieces under $300), an assortment of pre-internet interior design books that beat any Pinterest board, vases and baskets galore for all your unruly floral arrangements, and more. Some of my best-ever The RealReal finds are in there, too. It’s fun and a little chaotic—go wild.
