Let’s just get right into it!
This week at Drinks With Broads, we covered the VMAs and I told everyone how I lost my shit at two guys at the Oasis concert. Then, yesterday, I advocated for justice for Nina Dobrev (the CW screwed her financially) and Heather shared the sincerely unhinged AI movie posters that Facebook keeps giving her.
AND! Our Only Murders in the Building recaps are back!
Speaking of the VMAs, we had full red carpet coverage here — catch up if you missed anything! Sunday is the Emmys; we’ll be hosting a live chat at DWB for paid subscribers and we’d love to see you there. We’ll also have complete red carpet coverage here on Monday, so make sure to come by.

This is so interesting: The Lightbulb Hunter of East 58th Street. (I have my own source for those light pink incandescents but they are getting hard to find!! I spent an insane amount on my current stash.) Trump and I agree on two things: I hate LED bulbs and I also hate paper straws.

I got the new Boden catalog this week and whoever their art director is, she deserves a raise, because I wanted to buy EVERYTHING. They have a ton of cute tartan (I cannot resist tartan), I love all these Fair Isle sweaters, and I dig their corduroy suits. (Corduroy is definitely back; Banana has a lot of it too. I dig this skirt. It’s very 1970s Collegiate Preppy.)

One of my favorite lip glosses is 50% off right now. If you are old, like me, it might also remind you of Wet & Wild, just better. In my heart, I will always love a gloss. (I actually really like DIBS, and the prices are good. Their lipliners are excellent and this lipstick was my summer go-to. I don’t know if it REALLY plumps but I love the color.)

I was at Nordstrom for a totally other reason but I noticed that they have a sale on the Elemis marine cream, which I LOVE. They have a similar one on Elemis facial wash, which I have not used but if you do — FYI. (It’s one of those deals where you get a set of two, so this is mostly useful if you already know you want to stock up.)
