The Ultimate 'Style' Movie Mood Board

1 week ago | bobbibrown.substack.com | Bobbi Brown

Revisiting a project I started a while back with my friend Michael Carl at Hermès. We set out to curate a list of 100 fashion and style-focused films. We only made it to 74, but I’m always on the lookout for more to add. It’s that time of year where, after a long day outside in the sun, I like to wrap myself in my Hermès blanket and turn on a movie. These are the films that have stayed with me time and time again. Some are classics, others just brilliant.
I Asked So You Don't Have To

This is my second season working with Lisa, who is a trainer at Equinox in the Hamptons. I booked one session with her at the beginning of last summer and immediately got hooked. While the gym is mostly filled with very muscular men, Lisa was the sole female there, not much taller than me, but really strong, positive, and actually quite tough. Not too tough, but tough enough that I’d feel sore the next day.
My Dad, My Hero

When I was growing up, my dad Joe Brown was always my hero — he was literally the coolest dad around. He had his own law firm in Chicago and my friends called him “Gorge” because he was really handsome (the girls had big crushes on him). Despite having a 9-to-5 job, my dad always loved creating art. He took time to sculpt, draw and loved black and white photography. He would spend nights and weekends working in the darkroom, developing his pictures.

This isn’t the first time I’ve talked about Jill Fox. She is literally my superhero. Jill has come to my house three times now, and to our JRB office twice. You can see her excellent work in my post featuring her projects with In The Fold, but this time, I wanted to share her expert opinions on keeping our lives organized. For those of you who love that extra touch of organization, this is for you. Q: What did you eat for breakfast this morning?
Your Dream Makeup Bag, On Me

I’m always thinking of ways to thank my paid subscribers for being here. Joining Substack was a bit spontaneous, and I came in with no real direction. Even a year later, I’m still figuring it out as I go. But one thing I do know is how grateful I am for your support. I still remember my first week on Substack—I posted a launch note with no clue what I was doing. All it said was, “Hey, it’s Bobbi!” And now, here we are.
Add to Cart

I'm such a creature of habit. I like things simple and easy. I can't even remember the last time I went to Costco, which used to be my obsession. Now it feels like everything is on Amazon (even Saks Luxury, apparently). Here are some of the things I've ordered—and reordered—recently:Ashapops: Himilayan Pink Salt Price: $5.88 USDWhy I love it: I discovered these a few years ago when the founder and his mom started posting on Instagram.

My health journey doesn’t have an end. I’m always looking for ways to feel more energized, support my gut, and just feel better overall. And lucky for me, I’ve got Dr. Jaime on speed dial. She’s my go-to for everything from what foods to try or avoid, to what supplements might actually make a difference. Honestly, she’s a lifesaver. This week, I asked her to answer some of the most common health questions I get…so you don’t have to. Enjoy. Q: What did you have for breakfast today?
A Walk in My Shoes

I love shoes. I’ve always loved shoes. My mother tells the story of how, when she bought me a new pair, I insisted on wearing them immediately. Once, after a shoe shopping trip, she took me out to lunch, and I placed the brand-new shoes on the table so they wouldn’t get scuffed. My grandmother told me never to put shoes on a table—it’s bad luck. I’ve remembered that ever since.

I’m lucky to be surrounded by incredibly smart and talented people. As a naturally curious person, I’m always wondering about things—and if you know me, you know I’m never afraid to ask questions. This time, I wanted to share what I learn with you. I messaged my good friend, Dr. Julius Few, founder of Dr. Few Skincare, to talk all things skin. He’s truly one of the best. I hope you learn something—just like I did. Three to four times per week, I eat oatmeal with berries.
A Letter To My Children

An excerpt from the book Grace Mothers: Letters to Our ChildrenWith Mother’s Day coming up, I wanted to share a letter to the three boys who made me a Mom. My sons- Dylan, Cody, and Duke are my whole world. I couldn’t be more proud of them. I wrote this note a few years back, but wanted to share it for my other proud moms. Guys,I know you know, because I tell you all the time, how much I love you. You are my heart and soul, and I could not be prouder of the men you all are.
