This Is Abandoned Cart
Oh God, another fashion newsletter.
The moment no one’s been waiting for.
After undergoing yet another layoff in the cruel, cruel world that is digital media, I’ve decided it’s time to do what everyone else is doing and start a newsletter. While I hope you all enjoy my ramblings (sponsored by Wellbutrin), I’m also hoping to get something out of this myself.
I need a place outside the group chat to talk about fashion, drop product recs, and mull over the stuff that’s been sitting in my various shopping carts for weeks. You will now be privy to this vital information.
No, but for real.
I’m hoping to expand my community outside of just like-minded friends to like-minded strangers as well. Give me your perspective, tell me why something I love is actually hideous, share the last thing you bought that was actually worth it.
But it’s not just my shopping habits that I care to explore. I’m also going to talk to the people who motivate me, interest me, and/or make me laugh. What weird thing is sitting in their eBay or Ssense cart right now? Do they actually need another flowy white maxi skirt? Is the $200 moisturizer really going to be worth it? Let’s find out together.
But wait—who tf am I?
That’s private.
Kidding, I’m a fashion writer/editor who you may know from MTV News (R.I.P.), Vanity Fair, NYLON, Byrdie, or Poosh. I was also voted Eaton Rapids High School’s best dressed in 2011. I hope these credentials are enough for you.
A few things to get us acquainted:
Before I start publishing here (weekly, btw, on Tuesdays), here are some things I’ve written you can check out (and verify my aforementioned resume).
