Not sure if it’s just me, but I have been one day ahead of myself this entire week. My alarm went off yesterday morning (I’m down to only hitting snooze twice now… I was teetering in the 3-4 realm there for a little while…) and I could have sworn that it was Thursday….
Anyway, it’s Thursday today, which means Friday is tomorrow… so it’s all down hill from here. We’re cleaning out our closets this weekend (to hopefully get an official organizational system installed in them… you don’t want to see what they look like right now….) so that should be fun (right?). On second thought, maybe I should just let the week inch by slowly???
All that aside, I rounded up my recent go-to products over the past couple of months… items I reach for over and over again… that a versatile + practical… both in the fashion, home, and beauty department….
Hope you all have a good end to the week!
FASHION
DRIFTER BEACH SWEATER: I bought this back at the beginning of June and have worn it so many times since… it’s the perfect pool day to evening piece… great for cooler summer evenings with denim shorts and as a coverup. It’s sustainably made and love the oversized fit (I went up a size for length).
AGOLDE PARKER SHORTS: These are my go-to pair of white denim shorts for summer. I’ve had them for a few years now, but wasn’t able to wear them last summer since they didn’t fit (post-partum). I’ve loved being able to pull for them this season… easy over a one piece + perfectly casual with a tank or oversized tee. They are high waisted, which I always prefer and run tts.
Lounge Tee + Joggers: Since I’m still living in loungewear (still) I snagged these back in June and they’re super soft + comfortable… plus the color is super fun for the summer season. The joggers are more of a mid rise and the tee is a boxy oversized fit. They’re also petite friendly, which is always a bonus for me!
Metallic Scrunchies: These come in the pretties back of about 6 colors… light pinks and neutral nudes…. I love using them to toss my hair in a high ponytail at night (for sleep) or a low bun when I’m hanging at the pool. Great price point as well!
Parker Necklace: I’ve had this for over a month now and have’t taken it off once… that’s how I always know something is good. It’s adjustable in length, which I like because that makes it an easy piece to layer with so many other necklaces.
Ugg Oh Yeah Slippers: I’m a huge fan of open toed slippers in the warmer months… and I’ve been loving green shades this season… so these were perfect when I was looking for another pair of slippers. They’re super cushiony (not sure if that’s a word) and don’t make my feet super warm.
Leopard Swimsuit: Each season I end up finding a suit that is my go to for comfort, style, and fit… and this one is amazing. More of an investment piece, the bottoms are full coverage and both have a silky feel to them. Sustainably made and fits tts.
Tie Dye Sports Bra + Leggings: Love love love these… the material is so stretchy and comfortable… not constricting at all… and the neutral tie dye is beautiful. I know I’ll be wearing these well into the fall season as well… probably with an oversized sweatshirt. They run tts so I don’t recommend sizing up (but they look super small when you get them).
Crossover Sandals: I reach for these slides several times a week… they’re so easy to toss on post workout or with a pair of lounge shorts. They’re neutral, so they go with everything. I recommend sizing up if you’re between sizes. They’re fitted at first, but after a wear or two loosen up.
BEAUTY
Equilibria Bath Bombs: These are amazing… I take a bath once a week and toss these into the tub… and I swear my aches from my long runs melt away. They have the best smell (from essential oils) and have a touch of sparkle to them as well. Very soothing and relaxing way to treat myself mid-week. SHANNON for 15% off (first time purchase).
TULA Spot Treatment: As I mentioned in yesterday’s post, this spot treatment has been my go-to to treat stress breakouts. Quick + effective without being too drying. Highly recommend. ITSYBITSY for 15% off.
Hair Removal Cream: With all of our salons in California closed up again, I needed something to address biking line hair removal (shaving is not my preference…)… so I did some research and this one came up with great reviews. I’ve used it for about a month now and have had great success… and doesn’t burn my skin at all.
Cooling Eye Gels: When my eyes are in need of some major de-puffing, these are amazing. Cooling upon application and they seem to just overall make the under-eye area appear more “alive.”
Facial Steamer: Another product from yesterday’s post, but this little steamer really packs a bunch… both in my complexion and a little self care… feels as if I’m treating myself to a spa facial!
HOME
Glazed Stone Mug: This mug hold a lot of caffeine, just how I like it… and it’s super cute!
Ombré Outdoor Rug: We bought this rug when we were re-doing our outdoor space and have been super happy with the quality + color… it’s also easy to clean. We’ve had multiple toddler spills on it and with a heavy spray of water were able to get the markings out….
Organic Cotton Sheets: We’ve been using these organic cotton sheets for the past two weeks and they’re so comfortable. When I first received them I wasn’t 100% sold, but after the first night’s sleep I was! They’re soft + breathable, which I love, and make for a super comfortable sleep experience. We also have this waffle knit blanket which will be great for the winter months, but right now we love using it outside in the evenings by the firepit. 20Shannon will get you 20% off until 7/31.
Sunburst Throw Pillows: I bought these several months ago, as an added pop of color to my otherwise white/neutral home decor. They’re so beautiful and subtle… and the perfect size to layer with other throw pillows.
