&5678: The Only Five Links You Need This Week

Closet upgrades, chaos cures, and the best thing I wore all week

Hello friends

I know I sound like a broken record but thank you truly for being here. I love this community we’re building. I love telling you my sweaty unhinged stories. I love sharing what I’m obsessed with, what I overpacked, and what I wish I had brought instead.

Writing has always been my thing. I was failing math and thriving in creative writing. Then I spent 35 years dancing professionally. In sparkles. In stilettos. On Broadway and off. I guess I’m retired now. Unclear. But the creative spark is non negotiable. It has to stay lit.

My love of fashion started with MGM movies and backstage quick changes. Everything I do is in an eight count. Which brings me here.

&5678 is me…

It’s the rhythm of dance and the drama of dressing. Every week I’ll share five things I’m loving. Obsessions, observations, what have you. Sometimes vintage. Sometimes just the perfect thing I found at the bottom of the internet. Always tested. Always researched. And as fast fashion free as possible.

No one’s perfect but we’re here to invest in ourselves right

So let’s get into it
&5678

&. Juliet Wine
Female founded. Gorgeous packaging. And for some reason, it just makes more sense for parties and gatherings. Leave it out. Let people pour themselves. Chic AF. I’ve been drinking mine for two weeks and it’s still not empty or gone bad. They gave me a code because they’re cool like that NEKA20

5. Porter Cushion-Cut White Drop Earrings
These are the earrings. Not just pretty. Not just sustainable. The ones you’ll actually wear. With a hoodie. With a slip dress. With nothing but a tan. I haven’t taken them off since they arrived. They’re the white tee of jewelry. Effortless. Timeless. A little bit flexy but never too much. If you’re going to buy one thing from this list, make it these.

The real stuff starts now. The Bader breakup, the denim miracle, the hair revival… reserved for my VIPs.
