Welcome to May! I hope this month treats you well. Speaking of May: The Met Gala is THIS UPCOMING MONDAY! Like a mere few days from now. We’ll be hosting a live chat for paid subscribers to Drinks With Broads, and of course will have complete red carpet coverage here at GFY on Tuesday, so please come by both.

Speaking of Drinks With Broads! This week, I crowdsourced recommendations for my honeymoon and Heather tackled both Etoile and whatever is happening with Bill Belichick. (Everyone’s suggestions have been great!) Tuesday’s newsletter was disappointed in John Lithgow and happy with Old Navy!

Here at GFY, we also rounded up cute toiletry bags. (I am into a cute pouch.)

We also talked about the Tony nominations!

I mentioned this at DWB this week, but this is an excellent piece at The Squawk in preparation for Monday’s Met Gala: Black Dandyism and the Homework of the 2025 Met Gala. I learned a lot!

This is fun! Our friends at M.Gemi have given us a 15% off code, in case you’ve been percolating picking something up there. The code is DWB15. I’m very tempted by these lower heeled platform sandals, but I am also tempted by these squarish-toed ballet flats??? Honestly, I probably need some new sneakers more than anything else; these are so pleasantly understated.

Speaking of links to things, I messed up last week! This is the correct link to that Hanni Moisture Stick I love. (They kindly sent it to me.) You can’t spill it!! (I saw someone online call it “chapstick for your body” and that’s kinda true.)

I agree with Lainey about Tom Cruise and Ana de Armas here.

If you missed our coverage of the Vivienne Westwood bridal collection….I urge you to take a moment.

This is such a good piece and big thanks to the reader who sent it in. At Vogue: How North of North Pays Homage to Traditional Inuit Style.

Julia Louis Dreyfus looks dishy here! [TLo]

Coogler is a genius but I personally cannot go back to that basement office again: Ryan Coogler ‘X-Files’ Reboot Gets Blessing From Original Series Star.

At Back Row: André Leon Talley’s ‘Anna’ Interviews.

I haven’t forgotten: The Forgotten Power of the Parlour Palm. [Messy Nessy Chic]

I clicked into this story SO FAST: “The Real Reason the UES Mommas Group Disappeared — and Came Back: A conversation with Tiffany Ma, one of the most powerful moderators Facebook ever saw.” [The Cut]

There’s a bunch of new stuff at J.Crew right now. This dress reminds me so much of something Chelsea wore on this past season of White Lotus (in a good way). And I LOVE this…although technically I already own something really similar but who’s counting?

Speaking of knits, I have had this cardigan in my shopping bag for like a month.

Madeline Brewer’s Top Shelf is so pleasantly robust! [Into the Gloss]

Eater asks, Is There Too Much Pickle????? Usually, I’d say no….but I did mutter, “that’s too much pickle” to my car radio when I heard that Popeye’s was putting it in lemonade. On the other hand….I WOULD try that if someone handed it to me. Anyway, some of us have always liked pickles!

I am into this admittedly bonkers jumpsuit.

Was this even a question?!?!?!?! At InStyle: Travis Kelce’s Barber Finally Confirms Whether His Hair Is Real.

House & Garden UK wonders, What makes a good hotel room? I have big thoughts on this one.
