Old Navy short-sleeve mini swing dress – Old Navy’s sleeveless version of this dress has been my go-to for work-from-home days and weekends since the pandemic began. It’s just so easy to throw on. It looks nice on camera with jewelry for Teams calls and you can easily slip bike shorts underneath for a ride to happy hour. I thought the short-sleeved version was nice for fall and it looks more pulled together than the sleeveless one. The quality is about what you’d expect from an Old Navy dress. I wash mine on delicate and line dry them so they last longer, but eventually they’ll pill and will need to be replaced (or, in my case, downgraded to pottery clothes).
EACHY travel cosmetic bag – This cosmetic case was on so many gift guides last year, to the point where I was turned off from it because of its ubiquity. That was until I was on a recent trip and annoyed by digging through my cosmetic bag, thinking that maybe the bag that opens wide and lays flat might not be such a bad idea. I purchased this before our July trip to Philadelphia and loved it. I bought the larger size and it fits everything I need for a vacation.
Eileen Fisher turtleneck merino wool sweater – The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is best for classic items that you’ll wear all season and in future years. At least that’s what I told myself when I pressed “purchase” for this sweater when it was on sale. I tend to gravitate toward looser turtlenecks in the cooler months and a few of my older ones from J.Crew are looking worn and a bit raggedy, so this was a welcome upgrade for my wardrobe. I went down a size and it still has the intended slouchier look.
J.Crew mid-rise kickout crop jean – These were my favorite jeans last year, so I simply bought a backup. You know how it is.
Sezane “Max” shirt – I feel like a broken record, but this is another item that I have a well-worn version of in my closet and decided to upgrade. I have another linen-blend shirt from Sezane that’s gotten softer with each wash, so I’m hoping for the same with this one. It’s beautifully made with mother-of-pearl buttons and closed seams inside of the shirt. I went with my regular size and it has a relaxed, oversized silhouette.
Peak Design camera strap – We already have the Peak Design wrist strap for our DSLR, which offers drop protection when you’re holding the camera. I typically carry my camera this way when traveling, but it can start to get heavy or cumbersome when I want to get a shot on my phone, too. We purchased the longer strap for our trip to France, so I can wear the camera as a crossbody. It has a slim profile and the smooth strap doesn’t catch on clothing. The connection points have a quick release, so you can easily adjust how you’d like to wear the camera or swap between other straps. Plus, Peak Design is a Certified B Corp., so you can feel good about supporting them.
Not pictured – Boden ‘Olympia’ jersey maxi dress in “Enchanting Vine” – And, finally, another “I have one and bought a second” item. I bought this in black last month and the cut was so good that I bought the colorful one.
