The Weekly Edit

courtney grow x reformation, a sweetgreen comeback, peptide lip liners, ralph lauren’s bedford home, unboring questions and so much more!

Hiii and welcome back! Before we dive in, a quick note to let you know that The In-Between is going on a little in-between. I’m pressing pause for the next few weeks (including paid subs) until my return which will include a proper dispatch on what the cool moms are wearing in London, some tidbits from the East Coast, and hopefully (pray for me) having unearthed some gems as to what keeps a toddler happy on long flights.

Hope you have a great few weeks, see you back here soon!

Let’s get into it The Weekly Edit:

• Lanvin has a new CEO and Chloé has a new CMO.

• Barnes and Noble is so back! And Foot Locker is on their way (must say, it’s my favorite place for kids’ shoes).

• Rumor has it that Isaac Mizrahi may be returning to Target.

• GAP Q1 earnings call highlights.

• Sweetgreen is working on their comeback plan.

• Oura debuted ring 5, ahead of their potential IPO.

• Courtney Grow x Reformation launches tomorrow (!!!).

• What cool women wear when it gets hot.

• Vogue staffers predict the summer trends you’ll be seeing everywhere.

• These sandals from The Row are giving Reefs.

• If you’re looking for chic trouser shorts, look no further.

• Celine Triomphe sunglasses are on sale during the Nords half yearly sale which is my other favorite time/place to shop for kids’ shoes (cute!).

• This Spanx t-shirt was all over my feed this week which took me down a rabbit hole and did you know they make linen pants and dresses and denim? Smart!

• Olive Young, South Korea’s leading beauty retailer, opened its first U.S. store in Pasadena this week.

• Claire’s is coming for tweens and teens, according to their CBO: “At Claires, we are proud to invite a new class of beauty partners to our shelves like Pipa SkinCare-- products specifically made for tweens and teens. In fact, we actively seek out brands that encourage the fun and healthy routine building side of this space, earning a right to the coveted spot on her bathroom counter. After all, one of our core beliefs is in providing girls the freedom to figure it out. To try things on. To embrace the mess. To take the pressure away to be perfect.” Which leads to the question: is there a right way to sell skincare to kids?

• A Boston-based startup, 10Beauty, developing robotic manicure machines has secured $23.5 million in funding. I’m still waiting on robotic laundry folding and dishwasher unloading.

• Peptide lip liners are taking over and I think we all know who gets the credit for it.

• 90s bronzer has made a comeback, my top picks: one, two, three.

• RŌZ is teasing a new wave product and I can not wait! Launches June 2, calendar marked.

• I’ve been enjoying this candle.

• Missing Love Story? Sarah Pidgeon takes a bite out of the big Apple in Balenciaga’s new Fall 2026 campaign and it’s giving that energy.

• A visit to The Broad’s new Yoko Ono exhibition.

• Ralph Lauren’s home in Beford New York.

• A reminder that you only get 18 summers with your children. I’m not crying, you’re crying!

• Summer doesn’t need to be performed. It needs to be felt.

• Don’t put too much pressure on your summer vacation.

• 10 tricks that will make you the best listener in the room.

• Train your attention span so good it feels weird to scroll.

• These are 7 things that the stoics say you need to do every day.

• Unboring questions to ask someone.

• Ways to spark back your childlike wonder.

• Need to remind someone that they’re loved? Send them a postcard.

And to close it out, three things I’m romanticizing about London:

1. Fresh outfit inspo.

2. Pubs that look unchanged for centuries.

3. Marylebone side streets.

4. Saying “let’s meet for tea.” Ok, that was four!

Be kind out there and have a great few weeks! If you enjoyed this, please give it a little heart?

XX,
