Why Lindsey?
My guess is that many of you know and have shopped Lindsey’s business, Weezie towels. I’ve been very impressed to see her grow the business as a premier DTC brand. She is an EHS and Vandy grad and we have gotten to know each other through many mutual connections.

Lindsey’s Recommendations
Written in her own words…
Books
I am Pilgrim (Fiction Book): my favorite page-turner / thriller. For something a little bit lighter, my best friend Avery's debut novel Social Engagement comes out May 23rd (pre-order it in Amazon now!) She also has a great instagram account with book reccos (@ahabooks)
Bill Browder's Red Notice & Freezing Order (Non-Fiction Books): true stories about business, crime, and Russian oligarchs - both are page turners!
Shoe Dog (Non-Fiction Book): Phil Knight's story launching Nike
Brands
One of my favorite parts of being a founder is connecting with other female-founded brands. Some of my favorite brands (and founders!) are:
Margaux: the perfect ballet flat
Brightland: best olive oil in the game
Addison Bay: my go to athleisure brand
Wardrobe wise I have been stocking my closet with Cleobella, Hunter Bell, La Double J, Alemais and Cara Cara.
Shows
I am obsessed with Succession right now - the writing is next-level. I also love me some reality TV when my husband is traveling for work.
I am binging Top Chef which combines two of my faves in one - food and reality tv!
Food & Beverage
We relocated to Atlanta during the pandemic and have yet to find a pizza place that compares to our NYC favorites.
If you are ever in New York and craving a slice I recommend:
I am also looking forward to trying Sean Feeney and Missy Robbins' new pizza spot in BK, Fini, next time I am in town!
Gift
Weezie kitchen towels embroidered with "bon appetite" have been my go-to hostess gift as of late and people have been raving! They are beautiful to display but also super functional.
Travel
If you are splurging on a European vacay in the near future I highly recommend Chevre D'Or in Eze, Palazzo Avino in Ravelo, the Splendido in Portofino or Villa D'Este in Como.
Hot-tip when traveling in the states:
Skip the rental car line and use the app called Turo. Nicer cars, cheaper prices, easier pick up and drop off!
Also, if you travel with kids as much as we do - invest in a Pico portable car seat and yo yo travel stroller.
Personal Plug from Lindsey
Weezie: we make the most luxurious and highest quality towels on the market, period. Throw away your old, mildewy towels and upgrade your towel game with Weezie! Add custom embroidery and voila - you have the perfect gift for Mother's Day, weddings, new babies, the holidays and more!
Thank You, Lindsey!
