Pentreath & Hall Alphabet Pots

I love these handmade alphabet pots from Pentreath & Hall. Each glass tumbler is inlaid with a gold vinyl letter or symbol which makes them the perfect personalized gift. While they’re typically used for holding toothbrushes, paintbrushes, pens or pencils, these tumblers would also make a fun personalized tablescape. Spell the birthday boy or girl’s name down the center of the table and fill them with candy or flowers.

J. Crew Woven Tote

This woven gingham tote (that’s currently 32% off) from J. Crew is an absolute must for summer — in blue, natural black, or my favorite, green gingham. They’re absolutely adorable and water-resistant, so it’s safe to bring this tote to the pool, the beach or fill it with leaky sippy cups all summer long.

Maisonette x Dondolo Collection

Dondolo has teamed up with Maisonette for an exclusive Italian-inspired capsule collection and everything is BEYOND. I couldn’t resist these yellow puff-sleeve dresses for the girls and this dress for myself, which is one of the two women’s styles. A look through the collection is like a boat ride down the Amalfi Coast. You can check out our impromptu photoshoot in the pieces here. And, while you’re on Maisonette’s website, peep their Memorial Day Sale that just launched and is chock-full of so many favorite brands for little ones.

Kenneth Jay Lane Earrings

If you follow my stories, you’ll know that a recent outfit was called out on Instagram for looking unfinished without earrings. After apologizing for letting you all down, I am recommitting myself to never letting a day go by without rings in these ears. Enter Kenneth Jay Lane. Kenneth Jay Lane is always my go-to for glamorous, affordable vintage-inspired jewelry. I recently ordered these gold doorknocker earrings and these pearl clip earrings so keep an eye on these ears. (Or don’t.)

Hatch Maternity Tanks

As I round third on my third pregnancy, I’ve come to reflect on pregnancy fashion. I’ve spent a collective 2+ years carrying children in my abdomen, so I feel confident reporting that Hatch carries the absolute best maternity styles in general, but let these maternity tanks be your gateway drug. These tank tops are ribbed, soft and stretchy, perfect for layering, and they have a good amount of length for your changing size. There’s just something about the weight and quality that makes them a cut above the rest and worth every penny.

Ruggable x Iris Apfel Collection

New York style icon, Iris Apfel, at a spritely 101 years young is lending her lifetime of fashion expertise and bold style to this collection of rugs and doormats for Ruggable. Every piece in the collab is washable and the patterns are as daring and playful as Iris Apfel herself. I’m having a hard time deciding, but I think I’m going to order this one for the girls’ playroom. The fact that you can just remove the rug cover from the rug pad and throw it in the washing machine sounds almost too good to be true.

Reformation Green Floral Maxi Dress

Between Memorial Day and Labor Day, there are a slew of holidays and summer parties that would warrant the purchase of this gorgeous maxi dress from Reformation. Summer weddings, birthday parties, National Aviation Day — all the big ones. I especially love the mossy green floral print and the breathable linen, which qualifies this dress for Net-A-Porter’s Net Sustain program. Whether you shop consciously or not, you can feel good AND look good wearing this dress.

LPA Carlotta Pant

I’ve never met a pleated trouser I didn’t love and that’s especially true with this pair from LPA in the most delicious pastel yellow color for spring. The official name of the colorway is “banana crème” and I get it, these pants are sweet. The fabric is super lightweight, the front pleating makes for the most beautiful draping and the back features one of God’s greatest gifts: elastic. Wear them with your favorite pair of white sneakers or a cognac brown leather sandal.
