Happy Friday, friends! I bring you greetings from my sick bed. That is a dramatic way to put it; I have a cold. But a spring cold is the worst! I have stuff to do! Being congested is boring! And yet I persevere.
In case you forgot, it’s the big Sephora sale this week! It runs through April 20. We wrote a big post about it here! I hope you stocked up on stuff you need and maybe got yourself a little treat.
At Drinks With Broads this week: I get heated about Titanic II, we love “Madwoman,” and Heather’s Plane Movie was underwhelming. We’re voting for our next vintage cookbook, shaking our head at Allbirds turning to AI (?????), thinking about WYouth, and welcome the return of SNL Concierge. ALSO: Our Heated Rivalry book club begins April 22; this is a perk for paid subscribers, so join the club! (Also: if you become a paid subscriber for the HR book club, you’ll also get the paid Met Gala coverage! For $5 a month! A STEAL.)

ALERT: This weekend is the Rachel Antonoff Warehouse Sale — it’s through the 19th. This label is so delightfully whimsical. I have a cardigan from them with big mallards on it that I always get compliments on. I LOVE this dress covered in snakes, but of course it’s not on sale. But this sweater with BUTTER on it is! And so is their famous reproductive rights sweater!
I love that Katseye and EJAE, Audrey Nuna, and Rei Ami did a surprise performance of “Golden” at Coachella. That must have been so fun for everyone who was there to see it!
Love this homage to the 90s Filofax planner.
Apparently, Cate Blanchett is starring in a Martha Stewart biopic. I love Cate but I don’t think she’s right for this part at all beyond also being blonde. I sorta think I’d pitch Gwyneth Paltrow, honestly.

Apparently Kendall Jenner and Jacob Elordi might be an item. I can sort of see this. (Timmee and Jacob can talk about the Oscars or whatever at Kardashijenner family functions.)
Lands’ End is having a big swimsuit sale over the weekend; swim is 50% off with code BOARDSHORTS! (I actually think that, although this is a swim sale, the code works for other stuff too; it worked on a shirt I had in my shopping cart.) As I’ve mentioned before, Lands’ End’s bathing suits are surprisingly cute and they also have a TON of rash guards. I love that you can filter to shop by amount of butt coverage, they’re pretty size inclusive, and almost everything is available in long torso. I have this one and it’s super cute on; I really like this one as well. (It’s also in polka dot!) (Also, I know this towel with sharks on it is for kids but I kinda want it for me.) They also have a whole selection of bathing suits specifically for women who’ve had mastectomies, which is great.
You’ll want to look at this (eccentric!) wedding.

This is an interesting piece about death doulas; I have to say that I really respect Nicole Kidman for wanting to do this but also I think it would be very surreal if Nicole Kidman showed up as your death doula or the death doula of your loved one. Much like when Marcia Cross considered becoming a grief therapist — although I guess I WOULD feel better about my grief if I showed up to grief therapy and Dr Kimberly Shaw was there. At least it would be distracting.

Speaking of: Now I want a bagel, but also I don’t think private equity needs to also ruin bagels, of all things. Leave the bagel be: Big Money Is Betting on Bagels
Naturally: Jack Schlossberg’s Beef With Love Story Extends to the Costumes. (I think Jack really loves complaining about this; he’s a bit of a shitposter as it is.)
