Stuff I Love

What I’m Reading — I recently started The Patron Saint of Second Chances by Christine Simon and am already enjoying it.

What I’m Watching — This week I watched Moonshot on HBO and The Adam Project on Netflix. Both were fun and kept with a light space-themed mood. I’m also looking forward to the new HBO series about Julia Child.

What I’m Loving — I dug my brown wool-blend cardigan out of the closet since it’s been chilly. It’s currently on sale at Gap for a great price and has become my go-to layer.

What I Want — I’ve been eyeing an immersion blender from Drew Barrymore’s line at Walmart. It’s an attractive four-piece set at an affordable price, and I like how the small appliances in that collection look.

New Women’s Sandals at Target

Target has a buy one, get one 50% off promotion on shoes right now, which makes it a good time to pick up a couple of new sandal styles for the season—everything from casual slides to dressier sandals for warm-weather events.

My Favorite Finds

I want to try the CeraVe Hydrating Face Toner to help with dry skin; I’m always testing new hydrators and toners.

Straight leg jeans are everywhere this season and I like their clean silhouette. I’ve spotted affordable trouser-style and straight leg options that are both under $35 and easy to style.

Comfortable pull-on linen shorts from H&M caught my eye—they look breezy and practical for warmer days.

I also love a mango wood pedestal bowl for a simple, classic countertop display; it’s great for fruit or as a decorative piece.

Jumpsuits are showing up in lots of flattering cuts that can be dressed up for events or worn casually for backyard gatherings. Wide-leg sleeveless and short-sleeve sage jumpsuits are two options I’ve noticed that strike a nice balance between comfort and polish.
