THE WEEKLY EDIT:
Cookbooks: The Cook Book of All Time
I’ve seen a few people cook and post mouth watering looking dishes from All Time’s new cookbook, so I ordered it. Will report back!
Style Swooning: Laura Herrier
Everything Laura Herrier wears feels perfect to me. Not overdone, not too fussy—just chic and cool. Whether it's a polka dot dress with a sweater over her shoulders, an elegant cream moment, or trousers paired with all the right accessories, I'm so into her style!
Shopping: The DÔEN Mother’s Day Sale and SSENSE Private Sale
It’s that rare time of year when DÔEN has a sale, and it’s a good one! Beautiful dresses, dreamy silks, easy separates, and sweet dresses for little girls.
SSENSE is having a reallllly good private sale (you need to login for it). Current Manolo’s are up to 50% off, loads of Bottega sunglasses, The Frankie Shop, Toteme, Khaite, oh my!
Wearing: Ciao Lucia’s Mael Dress
I ordered Ciao Lucia’s black spaghetti strap midi dress with a stretchy smocked bodice and a full skirt, and I've worn it three times since it arrived last week. Once for an evening school event, for a daytime lunch date with a girlfriend, and all day Sunday with the family as we traipsed around Santa Ynez. It's so versatile and comfortable, and I can breastfeed in it, which is rare for a dress. Now I'm eyeing this polka dot dress (inspired by Laura Herrier!) as well as this yummy butter yellow. Gahh, all these dresses have me dreaming of a vaca.
Beauty: My new moisturizer, lip balms that weren’t on my bingo card and a Gua Sha with LED
goop 72-Hour Supercharged Hydrating Water-Cream
I haven’t changed moisturizers in about a year and a half, mostly because my skin tends to freak out whenever I try something new (thank you, hormones!). However, when goop launched their new water-cream moisturizer, I ran the ingredients through 'The Pore-clogging Ingredient Checker' and it passed the test, so I gave it a go. Not only has it not caused my skin any issues, but I've also been loving it! I'm on week three of daily use and it floods my skin with hydration, makeup sits on top of it so beautifully, and it's formulated to help soothe and brighten skin, which I'm feeling the benefits of.Sofia Coppola Launched Lip Balms
It feels like everyone is jumping into the lip balm/gloss category after the success of Rhode and Summer Fridays, but Sofia Coppola lip balms were not on my bingo card! And they’re in collaboration with Augustinus Bader! There are three shades inspired by 'berry-stained lips.'It's Lit LED Gua Sha Facial Massager
It’s a Gua Sha! It’s LED! It’s a facial massager! It’s a LED Gua Sha Facial Massager! This 3-in-1 tool which is supposed to help lift, relax, drain, glow and reduce fine lines sounds fantastic. Does anyone have it? Please share thoughts!
ALRIGHT, LET’S GET INTO IT:
Why Being "Bad" Made Me More Well
Last weekend, we made homemade pizzas for lunch. As they came out of the oven, nice and hot, my husband turned to me and said, "Would you like a glass of wine?"
Day drinking isn’t something I usually do. Hell, night drinking isn’t something I usually do! Especially since having Jack, as I’m particularly exhausted and trying to pull from a deeper well. But in that moment, it sounded lovely and very Italian. "Sounds great," I said.
