The Coveted

The Coveted | Bedknobs & Baubles

ONE | TWO | THREE | FOUR | FIVE | SIX | SEVEN

Obviously a sporty vibe isn’t my thing, but I couldn’t help going with a retro athletic theme for this week’s “The Coveted” once I laid eyes on those pants. They remind me of grandfather-esque golf pants in the best way possible, and they’re just begging for vintage-inspired athleisure to go with them.

The Weekend Guide

DECORATE
Here’s a fab DIY for all of you renters because white walls and beige carpet can be pretty dull.

SIP
A tropical spiked smoothie.

STOP
Do you ever get a twinge of Instagram jealousy when someone else has more followers or more likes? Do you wonder if you should post more photos of flowers, beaches, and perfect latte foam to fix that? Well, stop.

ANTICIPATE
Here’s a sneak peek at Tory Sport, debuting this month.

LEARN
I begged my parents for the American Girl doll Molly in the months leading up to my 10th birthday. I’m sure they were tired of listening to me talk about that doll every evening at dinner because they caved. While this piece insists that Molly was just a stand-in for Samantha, I knew differently. Molly was cool. She had pants.

SHOP
The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale ends on Sunday. I’d recommend picking up this necklace. It’s one of my favorites and layers well with other pieces. If you’re done with your clothing and accessory orders, it’s a good time to stock up on beauty favorites that you’ll order eventually anyway. I’m planning to replenish my supply of face lotion. I’m also thisclose to ordering this dress. I have 16 days left in sneakers before I can wear sandals and it would be such a pretty dress to celebrate in.

EARLIER THIS WEEK
I featured an adorable $29 dress.
Madewell finally opened in Madison.
Here’s where my money went last month.
Behind the Baubles with Majdan Rocks.
I met 50 Cent.

Staying at four Graduate Hotel properties last yea Staying at four Graduate Hotel properties last year solidified my love of the brand. Each is located in a college town and the brand does a wonderful job bringing in each city’s personality by way of thoughtful design finishes and kitschy details. In recent years, the brand has done a summer promotion to attract travelers to university towns during a typically quiet time of the year. This year was no different. For 30 hours in May, Graduate sold $30 rooms for the month of July. (Each person was limited to one booking.) We thought about going somewhere outside of the Midwest, but with a trip to Europe scheduled for this fall, we opted to stay closer to home and choose a location that we could drive to. And with that, a trip to Evanston, IL was on the books.

I didn’t know much about Evanston attractions, but I figured we’d find enough things to fill 48 hours. If not, Chicago was only a short train ride away. I’m happy to report that my low expectations were unfounded and I was won over by the city’s charming gardens, quaint neighborhoods, and access to Lake Michigan. It’s not to say that there’s a lot to do in the city. There isn’t, at least in the summer. But it has cute pockets all over that make a stay in the suburbs worthwhile.

Find a list of what we did in Evanston on the blog. (Use the search bar and type in "Evanston" to find it.)

A few moments from the weekend. A few moments from the weekend.
A small moment of peace from the past weekend. I A small moment of peace from the past weekend.

I feel like I’ve been doomscrolling since the news broke of SCOTUS’ decision to overturn Roe v. Wade. My emotions run the gamut from sadness to frustration to unadulterated rage. I’m deeply disgusted by conservatives and evangelicals, but especially by liberals who supported Bernie Sanders and refused to vote for Hillary Clinton at such a crucial moment in our history. Did you know that 12% of Sanders’ primary election supporters voted for Trump in the general election? In Wisconsin alone, 51,000 of them voted for Trump — a state Trump would win by just 22,000 votes. 

Your vote matters. It matters in national elections, statewide elections, and local elections. It’s crucial that Democrats organize as strategically as conservatives did and restore reproductive rights. 

In the meantime, donate your time, talent, or treasure to help those facing an unwanted pregnancy. @thecut has a great list on their site with organizations to support in states likely to prohibit abortion. I’ve donated to @plannedparenthoodwi.
Reveal day is finally here! It’s been a long pro Reveal day is finally here! It’s been a long process that started back in April 2020 with a kitchen ceiling leak that was attributed to water leaking from our tub faucet and working its way through the floor and into the kitchen. Our bathroom was never anything to look at (before photos on the feed), but the leak really accelerated our plans for a full bathroom renovation when timelines — and budgets — allowed. It feels a bit surreal to have it done and I don’t think I’ll ever stop admiring it whenever I walk past!
