Newsletters I Love to Read

in , , , by RoyallyPink, 4:30 AM

This is such a random topic but I wanted to talk about it anyway. I love newsletters so much -- I think it's so fun to have something delivered to your inbox every day, week, or month and be able to read it consistently.

I love how cheeky some are, how exclusive they can be, and just love to absorb as much content as possible. Over the years I've subscribed to a lot of different newsletters and some I've loved, some were just ok and some were just too over the top. 

It feels like newsletters have been a hot topic over the past year and everyone is starting one, therefore, I've subscribed to a lot more over the past year, and therefore, this blog post was born! From a business perspective, newsletters are very smart. It's always been important for corporations and small businesses from an e-commerce perspective, but it's so important from the blogger/influencer world. 

A newsletter is something you own, it's something you completely control and when you have that email list the possibilities of what you can do with it are endless. That's why I think so many people are starting newsletters because they are finally understanding the importance of it. 

Some of the newsletters on this list are news-focused, some are celebrity/influencer-focused, and others are just fun and light-hearted.



That being said, subscribe to my newsletter! I share one 2-3x a week but I promise it's not spammy! Sundays are all about pop culture and are basically just a long ramble but it's fun; Mondays are the best sellers from my blog and social media that week, and then Thursdays is a roundup of items I've been loving. 

theSkimm

This was the first newsletter I ever subscribed to and the one I continually recommend. theSkimm sends out daily news roundups, everything from politics to tech to world news. Anything trending and important to know is in theSkimm. It breaks down the most important news of the day into digestible snippets that are easy to understand. Sometimes, the news is overwhelming and difficult to comprehend, but theSkimm changes that and makes everything readable and interesting.

The Newsette

Similar to theSkimm, The Newsette is a daily newsletter that gives you the news you need to know that day. However, The Newsette is a bit more lifestyle-focused which I appreciate. It breaks up the bad news with some fun, light-hearted tidbits and usually features a roundup of products or an interview with an impressive woman. It's probably the newsletter I look forward to the most.

Please Like Me

I go back and forth with this newsletter but I always read it so I must like it! It's sponsored by Buzzfeed,  has multiple writers, and is sent out on Fridays. It's all about influencers and social media -- usually painted in a negative light. I have a real issue with people not respecting influencers and putting a lot of pressure/hate onto them because um, I consider myself an influencer and I understand the world from both a business and personal perspective but I digress. I do like the newsletter because it's not always negative, does offer interesting perspectives, and is nice to have all influencer news in one place.

Girls Night In

I love this newsletter so much! It's sent out weekly, on Fridays, and is just so wholesome. It's very lifestyle, self-care, and product-focused so you won't be getting any negativity from it which is nice. This newsletter feels like a warm hug and is just so wonderful! I cannot recommend it enough for someone who needs a little brightness in their life.

Lindsay Silberman's Newsletter

I don't know what it is but I'm obsessed with this newsletter. It's put on by an influencer and business owner, Lindsay Silberman. She has been blogging for quite some time and is also the owner of Hotel Lobby Candles which sells luxury candles that smell like different hotels... so cute! I recently listened to her on a podcast and immediately signed to her newsletter, followed her blog, and socials. She sends out multiple emails a week focusing on different topics; they range from blog post roundups, favorite products, and just some fun tips. The email itself is so aesthetically pleasing, it's just so nice and one of my favorite influencer newsletters ever! 

A few other favorites are The Morning Brew, Marketing Brew, and Wake Up Call with Katie Couric

I used to hate getting newsletter emails and would unsubscribe from everything in my inbox. I liked an inbox that was clean, neat, and easy to look through. I still do really enjoy a clean inbox, and I achieve that with UnRoll Me which helps you unsubscribe from any junk in your inbox. Unroll me also keeps all your emails organized in one huge email so if you subscribe to online shopping emails, you'll have all the promotions, deals, and sales in one neat little email.

With that being said, as I've gotten older I've enjoyed a few newsletters to read in the morning. Most of the newsletters I read have to do with news or career articles. I really have enjoyed being informed at the start of a new day, and having articles I want to read in one neat place. I've found a new newsletter that I've been obsessed with and inspired this post.



1. TheSkimm: This is the original mackdaddy of newsletters in my opinion. It's where I get most of my news in the morning, and I think at this point, a lot of people are subscribed to theSkimm. It is the best newsletter I've discovered and I'm obsessed. If I don't read theSkimm in the morning, whether it's in bed, on the train, or when I get to work, I feel like my day is completely thrown off. If you're clueless on what theSkimm is, it is a daily newsletter that sums up the biggest news stories of the day in fun, short snippets in language that everyone can understand. I think the biggest part about the news, a few years ago, was that I really couldn't grasp what an article was truly talking about but now theSkimm has helped me be more informed on EVERYTHING.




2. The Newsette: This is the newsletter I talked about at the beginning that inspired this post. When I saw this I thought it was a complete rip off of theSkimm but boy was I wrong! It is totally different! The Newsette is more based on lifestyle; it definitely has a news section but it gives you beauty, skincare, sleep, lifestyle, etc advice; it rounds up sales & fashion advice. It's difficult to explain, you just need to sign up because it is so unique and I'm obsessed!

I entered a giveaway on The Newsette's Instagram a few weeks ago &
won these lovely little stickers--how cute?!
3. Levo: Levo League has always been at the top of my favorite websites and it's no wonder their newsletters are on my list as well. They have a few different ones that center around different topics; the Brief sums up the news of the day but is published in the afternoon, unlike theSkimm & The Newsette; Beyond the Pencil Skirt centers around one women and her career mixed with fashion advice; Levo Must Reads rounds up the best articles on Levo that day/week. There are a lot of newsletters and I love them all!



4. The Coveteur: Taking a break from career & news, this newsletter (and website) has to do with fashion, beauty & lifestyle. The layout is beautiful and it's great to read on a daily basis because it has links to articles on the website that are up to date on the latest trends. It's something really different and nice to be subscribed too.

5. The Muse: Similar to The Coveteur, the Muse centers around a bunch of different topics. Between books, careers, food, and activities, the Muse (which has daily & weekly options for newsletters delivered to your inbox), summarizes everything you would want to know. It's not one I always read but it's been in my inbox for years.

Newsletters can be kind of annoying and some mornings I'm so busy I forget to read them but I've come a long way in being informed on everything going on in the world and I'm going to continue to do so!
