A year ago I was very glamorous and fancy and book A year ago I was very glamorous and fancy and booked a stay at @fssurfside to shoot my @amazonthedrop collection. It is still the nicest place I’ve ever stayed and I soaked up every minute. I worked hard but relaxed even harder after. By contrast, this week I shot my latest collection in my living room! It’s funny and kind of amazing how much we can accomplish from our homes. Tomorrow on the blog I’m finally publishing the (non Amazon) photos we took a year ago; I am in a place where it no longer feels icky/tone deaf/weird to share them. Plus, looking at them used to make me sad. Now I feel hopeful. We will do fun things again! There will be parties and hugs and adventures and trips and nights that blur into mornings and memories that involve leaving our houses. And yes I know, it won’t be for a while but there is a light at the end of the tunnel and I for one,cannot wait. ❤️✨❤️(📸: @genstreetstyle)
I've reached the stage of quarantine where I'm tal I've reached the stage of quarantine where I'm talking to my photographs and putting on "real clothes" and heels just to feel some semblance of normal! Also, this button down from @classic.six might be the best one I've ever owned. With a long, lean silhouette and strategic button placement to prevent gaping I am in LOVE. It's also long enough to tie which is super cute with high-waisted pants and skirts! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ PS - photo is Slim Aarons, bought from @jonathanadler, cabinet, rug, and clock are vintage, mobile is from @designwithinreach.
What’s one thing that made you smile today? ❣️✨❣️ - Mine: a morning FaceTime with my sister and my almost 3 y/o nephew. He’s in the cutest snuggly stage and getting soooo chatty and conversational. My poor sister just wanted to make her coffee and he wouldn’t let her get off the phone, wanted to keep talking. Sometimes I get really sad about how much I’m missing not being able to hang out in person but FaceTime has been such a gift. ❤️
Felt really happy today. Spent a big chunk of the Felt really happy today. Spent a big chunk of the morning reflecting on how much space I’ve made, how much I’ve been able to slowwwww down and actually think and live in the moment again, and how good it feels to be clear on my priorities and the things that actually matter. Just feeling really excited and ready and psyched about all the big changes to come. ❤️ Happy Friday, friends!
Today on TheStripe.com I am sharing three of the B Today on TheStripe.com I am sharing three of the BEST skincare products I have tried in 2021 (all from @sephora). It’s only been a few months but I have tried a LOT of new products. Head to the blog for the full scoop but here are some quick little mini-reviews! - @Biossance Squalane + 10% Vitamin C Dark Spot Serum: An amazing daytime serum to BRIGHTEN and EVEN the look of the skin, including fading dark spots + preventing the appearance of new ones. I have been using this every morning for a little over ten weeks and have noticed a big difference in my skin tone. - @OLEHENRIKSEN Lemonade Smoothing Scrub: my new favorite face scrub. It smells insanely good and makes such a noticeable difference in the appearance and texture of your skin in just one use! I love that it uses a blend of physical AND chemical exfoliants for smooth, glowy skin. Tip: Gently massage this into the skin for 2 minutes for your softest skin ever. - @peaceoutskincare Retinol Eye Stick: This is how I wind down my bedtime skincare routine! It’s a concentrated serum balm packed with encapsulated retinol to help smooth the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and texture around that delicate eye area. It glides on easily and provides lasting hydration while you sleep. - #SephoraSquad #ad
Really excited to team up with @honeywell today fo Really excited to team up with @honeywell today for a special GIVEAWAY. As we spend more and more time at home, air quality is important. Honeywell is the #1 doctor recommended brand of air purifiers and helps to combat allergies. Their newest innovation is the InSight Series with HEPA filtration, which has four cleaning levels (Germ, Allergen, General Cleaning & Turbo!) to keep your air as clean as possible. I've had mine for a few weeks now and love mine, but am excited to give one away to a lucky reader! - In the comments, nominate (and tag) someone who has done something incredible to care for or protect a loved one... or someone in need! Honeywell will choose one lucky winner to receive the InSight Series air purifier. - As a sidebar, I am really going to miss this apartment!!!! Also, so strange but Tyrion is weirdly into the air purifier. Swipe to see. He lounges out right in front of it! - #honeywellairathome #ad
I asked @gotokell and @fabrice.gili to make me loo I asked @gotokell and @fabrice.gili to make me look like it’s summer and I’ve been spending every day at the beach. Mission accomplished? ❤️❣️ (Thank you @fekkai for having me in, felt totally safe and just feeling like a brand new human - cut off 5 inches and added more highlights than usual, don’t remember the last time I was this blonde but I love it!!!)
I linked a really great article about happiness in I linked a really great article about happiness in my stories today. My takeaway: Real, genuine, lasting happiness is more about finding contentment in those little pleasures (a really good cup of coffee, a big hug, taking an afternoon off to make some art or be creative, walks by the water.... simple pleasures) than anything else. It’s less about those big swinging big highs and more about those little micro joys. What’s a simple thing bringing you happiness right now?? ❣️✨❤️ - (Most of what I’m wearing is old (@topshop coat, @agolde jeans but I’ve put this exact sweater + some similar items in my instashop!)
