Article Memorial Day Sale

Article Memorial Day Sale

Save up to 40% off hundreds of items until May 26.

Margo here. Last year, when I moved from New York City to Atlanta, the biggest concern amongst my loved ones was whether my coveted sectional would make it or not. I would pay full price for my Article couch again and again, but its latest Memorial Day Sale is too good to pass up. From now until May 26, it’s offering up to 40% off hundreds of home items (including my Sven couch). Saving $650 will make curling up onto its tufted cushions all the more satisfying.

Three Totally Random Things

Here are three random products we’re loving this week:

Reads

Matriarch by Tina Knowles

Matriarch by Tina Knowles

  • The story: While Beyoncé’s mom needs no introduction, her recent memoir provides a fascinating look at the person who raised one of the world's biggest stars. Knowles tells readers about her early life in Galveston, Texas in the 1950s, Motown’s cultural influence, and the risks she took to get her family where it is today. And if becoming hyperfixated on random topics is your thing, we’d highly suggest reading this before you head to a Cowboy Carter tour stop.
