Things I Bought and Loved This Month

June 29, 2022 by jessica Leave a Comment

I bought a lot of basics this month that have quickly become this season’s go-to pieces with the menswear shirt already earning its keep as a wardrobe workhorse. It’s been such an easy piece to throw on with cutoffs for a bike ride to the biergarten or to keep my arms shielded from the sun at the flea market. I’m sure the cost-per-wear will be down to pennies by the end of the summer. Below you’ll find a list of items I bought this month with information on each.

Wearing: Old Navy top; Old Navy pants; vintage necklace; Staud purse; Ancient Greek sandals

WARDROBE
See this year’s sartorial additions here.

  • Universal Thread long-sleeve boyfriend button-down shirt ($20) – I went up a size in this for an oversize, forgiving fit over my hips. It’s made from a linen-blend fabric that’s perfect for hot days when you want more coverage. I put it through the dryer and the arm length shrank a little bit, but it’s not noticeable if you’re rolling the sleeves anyway. It’s ultra soft after a round in the washer and dryer.
  • A New Day smocked midi dress ($30) – I’m definitely not over smocked-top dresses anytime soon. This one isn’t quite as nicely done on top as a Hill House one, so personally I wouldn’t go without a bra to offer some support and shape. It’s cute otherwise and feels well made.
  • Old Navy luxe rib-knit swing tank ($17) – I bought this top in the “sisal” hue to wear with the wide-leg pants above. It’s a surprisingly chic combination for the brand. You can see it in my snapshot above.
  • Old Navy luxe slub-knit swing tank ($17) – I can’t pass up this pretty rust color when I see it!
  • Old Navy high-waisted linen-blend wide-leg pants ($40) – For your “coastal grandma” vibes, Old Navy has linen wide-leg pants that I’m wearing above. It’s an inexpensive way to try the trend. I went with my regular size. For length referencing, I’m almost 5’7″.
  • Rothy’s sneakers ($125) – I’ll admit that I was skeptical about Rothy’s when I ordered my first pair of slip-on sneakers, but it’s safe to say I’m a fan given that this is my third pair. They’re more comfortable than Vince slip-ons and they’re easy to clean. I go up a half size so I can wear them with no-show socks. Get $20 off your first order with this link! 

HOUSEHOLD

  • Vintage Audubon book print ($12) – I’m admittedly only lukewarm on birds, but I do love a vintage Audubon print. I found this at a flea market last weekend. I’m thinking that it’ll work well with the colors in our powder room — and then I can finally take “after” photos to share with you! Search for other vintage prints here.
  • Vintage glass candle holder from Sweden ($2) – The last thing I need is another candle holder when I so rarely use candlesticks, but this smoky blue glass was too good to pass up.
  • IKEA “Vesken” cart ($15) – this cart is perfect for storing cleaning supplies in the bottom half of our bathroom’s built-in cabinets. It’s slim enough to allow room for additional storage inside the cabinet, too. It’s a great option for any narrow spot you need some extra storage. Given that it’s plastic, though, I’d use it just for hidden storage.

Over the weekend, we drove to Michigan and welcome Over the weekend, we drove to Michigan and welcomed this little lady to the family! She’s a two-year old snow Bengal that was surrendered after being bullied by the other cats in her home. We’re pretty sure she’s a seal lynx point Bengal, which has Siamese in the lineage, based on her vibrant, slightly crossed blue eyes. She is the sweetest, softest, most playful, and unbelievably talkative little girl. We’re crazy about her! 

We haven’t picked a name just yet, though. We have some ideas, but we’re waiting to get to know her personality more. 😊
