    Staud Square Neck Top

    I am so thrilled that Staud is now making their Swell dress in a top version! I’ve loved the shape of the dress, particularly the sleeves and neckline, for so long, I’m absolutely overjoyed that I can wear it with jeans and skirts now, too! This is a brilliant piece for summer-to-fall dressing by the way, and you’ll pull it out again come spring.

    Art Display Easels

    I think we forget that we have options for art display—even when we’ve run out of wall space. If you’re looking for a creative, and perhaps more flexible way to show off your art, try an easel! These options for both small and large art pieces from Ballard are incredibly chic—be prepared to tell everyone where you got them.

    Baked Farro with Summer Veggies

    I love a summer vegetable dish, but I think we’re a bit oversaturated on zucchini breads at the moment. This baked dish celebrates all the best of summer produce in one convenient, family-focused recipe that’s ideal for those moments when you have a ton of produce to use up and no idea what to do with it. Try this for a weeknight option and delight in your leftovers for lunch the next day.

    Collared Cashmere Sweater

    Yes, my mind is already wandering toward fall fashion, and when the clothes are this good can you blame me? I’m obsessed with this sweater and its cloudlike, midweight knit luxury, but also this neckline is really standing out to me for fall. I can’t wait to discover more iterations of this beauty!

    Blue and White Chinoiserie Bud Vases

    If you’re looking for a sweet accent on essentially any surface in your home, I love a delicate bud vase. These blue and white chinoiserie-style bud vases are one of my greatest Amazon finds to date. If you saw them in person, you would never believe they were so affordable. They look as good as some of my much more expensive antique chinoiserie pieces, at a fraction of the price. You can use them to display a flower or sprig (as part of a centerpiece or alone on an occasional table), but they also look beautiful displayed empty as well.

    The Kissing Hand Children’s Book

    If your children are experiencing separation anxiety around going to school, playdates, daycare, etc., The Kissing Hand is the absolute sweetest, most comforting children’s book. It’s been on Coco’s must-read list every night before bed for the past several weeks and now, anytime she goes somewhere without me, we make “kissing hands” to take with us. I think it’s helping us both equally, actually.

  • Coco’s Favorite Hair Bows and Hair Ties

    Coco’s Favorite Hair Bows and Hair Ties

    I often receive inquiries both online and IRL on Coco’s collection of hair bows. She refuses to leave her room in the morning without her “ponytail and bow” and given my affinity for headbands, this apple hasn’t fallen far from the tree. I almost always choose Coco’s bows from this colorful set or this set of white bows, and I secure her ponytails and pigtails with these elastics. I find that they’re perfect because they never break, and work expertly in keeping fine toddler hair in place. Her sister is poised to share her collection any minute now.

    The Kindness Method

    If you’re someone who craves new, smarter habits but has difficulty actually, you know, forming them, check out The Kindness Method. This book by Shahroo Izadi helps you strengthen your willpower, sustain your motivation and make lasting change in your life but by way of a little more self-love and kindness than we’re used to. And best of all, it works.

    Cherry Pitter

    It’s one of those things you never think you’ll need until it’s time to feed a toddler cherries and you realize how tedious it is to remove cherry pits with a knife. I initially bought this one which works like a dream, but recently my friend Makeda sent me this style that seems far more efficient for pitting a batch of cherries for pies or salads. Either way, we’re eating more cherries around here and I’m happy about it.

    Bev Wine Cans

    Not every glass of wine has to be followed by a full bottle. Sometimes you just want a glass or two on a patio at sunset with a good Spotify mix on in the background, you know? Bev creates delicious canned wines that have a slight fizz and zero sugar, so no need to worry about next-day grogginess. I ordered some on a whim a few months ago and am now absolutely HOOKED. I would also suggest this can cooler for particularly warm nights.
