    Putnam & Putnam’s Flower Color Guide

    I received this Flower Color Guide as a gift and have referred to it countless times since. Created by the famed NYC floral designers, it is the book they say they wish they had when they started doing flowers. The Flower Color Guide is the first reference book to organize flower types by color, with an emphasis on seasonality and creative color schemes. It’s the most amazing resource anytime you’re planning a party, dinner, wedding—anything that requires floral design. When I’m throwing a dinner party, I’ll often reference the book for the flowers I want and then I can call…

    Gola x Cath Kidston Trainers

    Cath Kidston, the joyful Notting Hill-based brand, does not get enough play in the states so I’m doing my part to spread the gospel by recommending a scroll through all of their offerings. I recently fell in love with their sneaker collab with Gola, namely the Kingston Ditsy and Love Letter print sneakers. Don’t wait for spring flowers, walk them into existence.

    Personalized Matchbox Barrels

    I’ve always collected matchboxes from my favorite restaurants and love to use them so whenever I throw a baby shower, bachelorette, bridal shower, etc., I get these personalized matchbox barrels made. You can choose from various fonts, colors and designs and they’re such a fun way for people to remember a special event.

    Peacock Alley Cloud Bath Mat

    Just about the only reason you’ll ever want to get OUT of a luxurious bubble bath is when an equally luxurious bath mat awaits. I love the look of a really classic, minimal bath mat but hate that they’re always basically just a thin towel you put on the ground. It’s like you can either buy plush bath rugs or something chic that’s flat as a pancake. This cloud bath rug is the best of both worlds and has a memory foam insert that feels like stepping out of the shower and onto a cloud.

  • SOAK Laundry Basin Set

    SOAK Laundry Basin Set

    I have accidentally thrown a delicate in with my gen pop wash more times than I care to recall, which is why this laundry basin set is such a great idea. The set includes a colorful, flexible basin that I throw my delicates in after wearing and then also use for soaking the laundry. It comes with a no-rinse detergent and a travel-size lotion and with scents like fig, yuzu, scentless or even lace-specific, this set will become the VIP of your laundry room.

    Lemon Essential Oil Adhesive Remover

    Most adhesive removers smell like they’re going to give you a pulmonary condition because they probably are. Thankfully, lemon essential oil is a completely natural alternative and my go-to with super sticky goo of any kind. This oil is great at removing stubborn price tags or sticker adhesive that my kids leave on furniture. Coco and Liza are DEEP into the sticker phase of life, so I keep this on hand.

    Face Washing Sweat Bands

    Okay, hear me out on this one: there is no greater ICK than the feeling of water running down your forearms into the sleeve of your pajamas when you wash your face at night. A friend of mine recently divulged this game-changing trick she said she learned from the fabulous Anna Mae Groves who wears athletic bands like these sweat bands on her wrists while washing her face every night. Not only do they keep your forearms dry, but if anyone invites you to play late-night tennis, you’ll be ready.

  • Glytone Elbow and Heel Cream

    Glytone Elbow and Heel Cream

    I categorize my life into two parts: before discovering this cream and after discovering this cream. It is AMAZING. The winter months allow me to neglect my feet and elbows since I can hide them under socks/sleeves but every time I shower I’m like YIKES. This ultra softening cream is also a godsend come spring/summer so I always keep a jar on my bathroom counter. Personally, I apply it to my elbows and heels at night then put socks on and by morning, dead skin falls right off in the shower with the help of my favorite exfoliating mitt.
