This month is flying by already. I’ve had a few extremely busy weeks at work and our summer schedule is already filling up — leaving little time for much else! While I find myself feeling overwhelmed with all of the seasonal plans, I have to admit that it’s still my favorite time of year. I have a few things to share this week, along with a roundup of the most notable of recent purchases. Hope you have a great week!
RECENT WARDROBE PURCHASES
- Lizzie Fortunato “Papaya” earrings – I bought these in another color last year and love them so much that I gifted these to myself for my birthday at the end of May.
- Nike “Pacific” sneakers in three colors: tan, green, and pink – My sneaker collection was due for an overhaul at the same time I came across this vintage-inspired design. I couldn’t decide between green or pink, so natural bought both, and then added tan shortly after. They run a half size small.
- Birkenstock “Madrid” sandals in black raffia – The raffia texture is so pretty, but they nearly sold out quickly. Bookmark the link for possible restocks.
- Boden “Cynthia” tea dress – This dress is so beautiful! I bought it to wear to a semi-casual wedding later this summer and will pair it with this clutch and these flat sandals.
- J.Crew ribbed funnel neck sweater – This sweater has a lovely drape and it’s lightweight for spring and summer.
- Target crewel maxi dress – A $40 dress that looks much more expensive than it is.
- H&M braided ballet flats – I don’t anticipate that shoes from H&M will last that long, but these woven Mary Janes were too cute to pass up and they’re surprisingly comfortable.
- Boden “Liv” v-neck cardigan – This linen cardigan has the prettiest vintage print. It received a lot of compliments. I went up a size to ensure the buttons don’t gap and I can wear it without a cami underneath.
HOME INSPIRATION
I had the most amazing opportunity recently to collaborate with my absolute favorite brand: Schoolhouse. I used the opportunity to build on the items I already had for our guest room, adding in a bright blue throw pillow and a cute lamp that was already on my wish list. You can find images of the items in my post from last week.

ODDS & ENDS
These hand towels — especially in yellow — are perfect for a powder room.
Top your steak sandwiches with a blueberry balsamic ginger spread.
I could not resist a set of these melamine plates. I bought six in each size.
East Fork added a new glaze to its core collection and it’s perfection.
We’re going to Philadelphia later this summer. During my trip research, I came across this cute post featuring local restaurant and bar matchbooks as birth months. (Really, the entire Insta account is great for others who like collecting matchbooks.)
I’m looking for more summer vegetable-forward dishes to add to our meal rotation and I’m intrigued by this buttermilk corn pasta that uses buttermilk powder.
