    Line & Dot Cable Knit Dress

    I recently bought this sweater dress from Shopbop and I have to tell you, it’s one of those dresses that doesn’t look great on the product page, but looks gorgeous in person. It is slightly oversized, so size down if you prefer your sweater dresses to be more fitted. This dress has been ideal for blending comfort, coziness, and a bit of chic during long days of working from home. Also, it’s an amazing price for something that will be a closet hero for years to come.

    Easter Baskets

    I recently ordered Easter baskets for both girls (wow, crazy to talk about them as a pair!) from Pottery Barn Kids. They’re incredibly classic, cute, and sturdy so we’ll be able to reuse them year after year. There are so many adorable liner options on offer, but you can also browse for even more options over at Etsy. Why does shopping for things in pastel shades instantly lift one’s mood??

    The Sil

    Not to be confused with The Sill, where you get amazing plants, The SIL is my new favorite destination for clothing from independent designers that’s not available anywhere else. Many of their gorgeous styles are actually made to order and every piece is completely exclusive to their beautifully-curated boutique. I strongly recommend browsing the classic dresses on offer which includes this gorgeous white frock that I will be ordering momentarily. If you’re looking for truly unique items, this is a special place to shop.

    My Favorite Lip Combo

    I’ve been getting endless questions about my current lip color scheme, and I’m always happy to share when I find a pairing that genuinely works. Although, unless you’re new around here, you know that the combo I’ve been wearing lately is no new discovery. It’s my long-standing favorite duo of Pat McGrath’s Permagel Ultra Lip Pencil in shade Buff, and my beloved Neutrogena MoistureSmooth Color Stick in shade Plum Perfect. You’ve heard me rave about MoistureSmooth before and if you haven’t, hello and welcome to its fan account, happy to have you. It comes in the best range of colors,…

    Hair Care Essentials

    I know skincare gets the lion’s share of the attention, but our precious strands need more than a wash and air-dry. Last week, I shared a complete list of the hair care products I rely on for every step of my hair routine. We’re talking all the tried-and-true MVPs from conditioner all the way through to the final mist of hair spray. Everything is revealed (including my holy grail hair ties) and everything is waiting for you here.

    Laptop Side Screen

    Stop what you’re doing and immediately get yourself a portable slide monitor for your laptop. Not detached from it, or sitting above it, I mean, this genius work-from-home addition attaches to your very laptop itself and gives you two screens! It’s basically like giving your laptop an extra limb, and your workflow twice the efficiency. If you need the workspace of a second screen but your physical workspace doesn’t allow for it (or you simply want to be more mobile than a separate monitor allows) this is ideal.

    Black Designer Spotlight at Shopbop

    Shopbop recently shared a beautiful spotlight piece on Black designers and this Lemlem dress obviously had to be mine. It’s giving me hope that summer is a real thing that will eventually happen again, and when it does I will have this breezy beauty to float around in on the beach. Can you picture it? Wearing gauzy fabrics again??

    Colossal Knit Throws

    There’s really no better Netflix companion than an oversized-knit throw. Except maybe snacks, obviously. These Colossal Handknit Throws from Pottery Barn come in so many gorgeous colors, and truly this is one of the best prices I’ve ever seen for a blanket of this style.

    Universal Standard Jumpsuit

    Universal Standard really doesn’t miss when it comes to everyday essential clothing that’s size-inclusive, comfortable, and affordable. The brand can do no wrong. At the moment I have my eye on their Jemma V Neck Jumpsuit, a key basic for easy days at home as we move into spring and summer. Throw on a necklace and a blazer and no one on Zoom need be the wiser…

    Metropolitan Museum Of Art Sweatshirt

    If you’re missing New York (and by you I mean me, I am missing New York, you is me, I am you), The Met Museum’s sweatshirt is a perfect, stylish reminder of one of NYC’s most beloved landmarks. I love a good outside-of-the-house sweatshirt that can be styled up with accessories and the right bottoms or a good straight-leg jean and chic flat or sneaker. Also, since beloved institutions like the Met have been hit so hard by the pandemic, now is a great time to show your socially-distant support by making purchases from their online stores. Did I mention…
