I just moved from a one-bedroom apartment to a studio in Brooklyn, and I can’t believe how much stuff I fit into my tiny closet. It didn’t fully hit me until I had to drag 12 bags full of clothes, shoes, and accessories to sell and donate down my three-floor walk-up. (It was abundantly clear that my closet needed more than a little purging.) And with hard work comes reward, so I’m obviously indulging in some retail therapy. Slingback heels, linen skirts, cute swimwear, and bubble-hem dresses are just some of the 39 items begging for a spot on my credit card statement. Keep reading for an inside look at my wish list.
