a letter from the editor
Moodboard, Lately
hi, hi.
our moodboard is a mess right now. no labels, no order, just a hundred screenshots saved at once. a bell-flower shaped teacup next to ruffle curtains, next to a cracked ceramic bowl, next to someone's oversized leather bag on a brooklyn stoop.
these are the aesthetics we're into lately. we couldn't pick one, so we didn't. we just wanted to share them with you, plové girls, since we're always looking for inspiration and beautiful aesthetics too. ୨୧
— xoxo, the plové team

shabby chic 🦢
if it's a little faded, it's already perfect.
chipped teacups. floral wallpaper that doesn't quite match the ruffle curtains. a lace tablecloth under a bowl of berries. shabby chic isn't about buying old things, it's about loving the things that already look like they've been loved. worn out furniture. peeling paint you don't fix. a ribbon tied around a jar because you didn't have a vase.
it's your grandmother's sunroom, if your grandmother had impeccable taste and no interest in matching anything on purpose.
“nothing has to be new to be beautiful.”

wabi sabi 🍵
the crack in the bowl is the best part.
wabi sabi is the japanese idea that imperfect, impermanent things are more beautiful for being imperfect and impermanent. a hand-thrown mug with a lopsided handle. a linen shirt that wrinkles the second you sit down and stays that way, unapologetically. the uneven hem. the candle burned down crooked.
it's less an aesthetic and more a permission slip: stop smoothing everything over. let it look like a person actually lives there.
“wabi sabi doesn't ask you to fix the crack. it asks you to notice it.”

whimsical core ⋆˚꩜｡
a little bit of magic, on purpose.
lily-of-the-valley-shaped lamps. tiny bells sewn onto cardigans. fairy lights strung for no occasion at all. whimsical core is what happens when you refuse to let your space, or your outfit, be entirely practical. a hair clip shaped like a cat. a teapot shaped like a bunny. it doesn't need to make sense, it just needs to make you smile when you walk past it.
it's the opposite of minimalism, and it's not sorry about it.
“not everything needs a function. some things just need to be lovely.”

brooklyn chic girl 🥿
undone on purpose, and better for it.
an oversized leather bag she's had for years. ballet flats on every single outfit, worn over bike shorts and no explanation. hair that looks like she meant it to fall out of the clip. brooklyn chic is 2026's answer to "clean girl". a little messier, a little more intentional about looking like she didn't try, when she absolutely did.
it's coffee in a to-go cup she's carried across three boroughs. it's confidence, dressed down.
“effortless is the whole effort.”

curated for issue 07
Reading, Writing and Arithmetic
the sundays, 1990. jangly, wistful, the sound of a rainy window and a cardigan you stole from someone.
