Happy weekend! This week was a hot mess mix of being super productive (I got a LOT done for my Amazon the Drop collection and am in major party planning mode for an event next week) and feeling dreadfully lazy/in need of a nap. Add to that a broken computer and a mold situation inside my bathroom light/fan and it wasn’t the best recipe for productivity. I guess we will just say win some, you lose some!!! I feel less bad about the lazier days as I did work quite a bit last weekend and sometimes your body does just need a break!

Any place you recommend for a relaxing girl dinner?
We cannot her wild – we have a 7 to 7pm shoot every day…
Staring at the wythe – is the new restaurant le crocodile i believe any good?
Thanks – no worries if you are too busy to reply
Hi Isabelle, Maybe try Meadowsweet! All my Williamsburg faves can be found here: https://thestripe.com/travel/williamsburg-brooklyn/
Sorry for typos!
For some reason I was really hoping the puff sleeved sweatshirt would have Tyrion’s face made out of beads & sequins on the shoulder/upper arm area.
100% on board with daily baths. The coffee of the evening. I love them and think they are under-appreciated by adults. Though as a childless 37 year old, I’ve also suspected they are one of the great joys of not having kids 😉 Reading a paperback in a steaming hot bath with lavender and epsom salt is heaven.. .
Hey grace! Per your recommendation for an affordable super rich cream I’ve been using welda superfood for the nights I’m not using retinol. However I’m noticing my face is still really dry. Any recommendations of what I could add for a boost of moisture?
Maybe try layering an oil like Everyday Oil over it!
I’m doing a two month no-buy on all beauty products, but those hair masks from Living Proof look so nice.
Great selection of reads & especially loved the 20 ways to feel better in 2020!
