Everything I Saved This Week | 033

Recent mental fancies.

For week ending 5/8/26. And celebrating 1,000 subscribers—thank you!

René Magritte, Les Liaisons Dangereuses, 1935

Saved because: Rene Magritte is in my top five favorite artists. It’s always invigorating to see one of his works in person. I have been lucky enough to see several in my life, most recently when visiting NYC at MOMA and last weekend when I went to the new David Geffen galleries at LACMA.

I live very close to LACMA and finally decided to become a member. I’ll definitely be back to visit this Magritte, Les Liaisons Dangereuses. I’ve never seen it before, and the painted double mirror is quite striking in person, especially against the stained purple-red concrete wall. I 100% recommend going to the Geffen galleries—they’re vast and it’s very much choose your own adventure. It’s really like nothing I’ve ever seen before! I didn’t think I’d experience baroque sculptures in the way I did, and you should, too.

This week, Jonathan Anderson is staging Christian Dior’s Cruise ‘27 collection at the newly opened galleries, and Dior PR team, if you’re listening, I’d be on the floor if I could attend. I can’t wait to see how he brings the collection to life in the space.

Palazzo Forani in World of Interiors, May 2026

Saved because: A favorite activity of mine is flipping open a fresh copy of World of Interiors with really no knowledge of what’s inside. It’s a magazine I’ve grown to love and pick up where I can find it (LA’s newsstands are tragically dwindling, so I ordered my recent copy from Magazine Cafe). The May issue chronicles Palazzo Forani, a medieval dream that still stands today. Worth a flip through (in person) or digitally for fans of terrazzo and stone reliefs.

Perfect Shirting in Elle Magazine 1993

Saved because: Excellent found layered striped shirt and watch styling from an Elle mag, July 1993 issue. And a Contax to boot! I love when something 33 years old feels so now.

Bags at the Office by Casey Zhang

Saved because: Bags in their least done-up form are my favorite way to see handbags. (See: Jane Birkin’s Birkin). My friend Casey’s series for the latest issue of Harper’s Bazaar captures just that. This new flap bag from Chanel’s S/S ‘26 collection is so good in the caviar saddle leather mixed with quilted suede.

Four Leaf Clover Pendant, 1920s

Saved because: I’m not Irish, but I’ve grown to love the four leaf clover, especially when done in a tasteful, beautiful way. This pendant is no exception. It features four symbols, and collapses into one heart pendant. What a treasure!

The Rise & Fall of Cool Brittania by Sam Nowell, 2020

Saved because: I’ve been sitting on this one for a while. If you know me, you know I’m a rabid Oasis fan. Consider me sat in this 1/1 coat by artist Sam Nowell for when the Live ‘25 documentary comes out later this year. No really, I would actually die for this coat, made from a throw blanket and a vintage Burberry trench. On the back, it has a quote about the British and beauty (unsure of the author). Sadly it’s one-of-a-kind, but a girl can dream.

Dream Book Nook at the Osvaldo Borsani House in Milan

Saved because: I mean, where else would you want to read with espresso in hand? My IG was papered with images from this furniture installation by Interni Venosta during Milan Design Week, so I had to investigate for myself. The gallery space is actually a Milanese apartment that was never opened to the public designed by modernist Osvaldo Borsani. This alcove built into the wall is cozy while still feeling minimal.

Until next time.
