Sunday Notes, no. 5
Some words about this week, a peek at my knit collection with Minnow, what I'm up to this week and what I loved!
Wore this outfit to dinner with my parents this week: Alix of Bohemia Dress, Freyers Sunglasses, Jennifer Behr Earrings, Hunting Season Clutch
This week was heavy. I don’t like the conversations happening on social media right now and I personally don’t feel the need to be a part of them. The world reminded me how important it is to focus on what’s in front of you. Teaching my children how to be respectful, to communicate, to share their thoughts and talk about them, honor differences, understand each other, honor the human connection and more than anything, LOVE. I feel so sad for the numbness that our country feels for our neighbors.
It is important to acknowledge what’s happening but also state that I hope my corner of the internet stays a happy place for you. To refocus your energy, remind you that what you’re doing within the 4 walls of your house is more important than proving anything to anyone. To feel seen and content and relish the beauty around us. For me, refocusing looks like going all in. No holding back on celebrating what’s right in front of me. This is an exciting season for me both personally and professionally and I plan on enjoying it the best I can!
I am flying to Kansas today to shoot my collab with Mi Golondrina that launches in October! Here is a little peek of the inspo for our imagery…
I can’t wait to see it come to life!! I get a little overwhelmed when it comes time to see collections come to fruition and making sure we can do the pieces justice. I’ll feel very relieved on Wednesday night when we have all the images.
I also hate leaving my family! I hate leaving my kids and knowing they are going to school each day without kisses from mom. I have to remind myself how lucky I am that traveling for work is few and far between but I just hate to miss their days and miss them so much when I’m away.
My knit collection with Minnow launches this Tuesday! We collaborated on two exclusive color ways in their classic stripe sweaters which have been a favorite of mine for years. We are launching a crew, cardigan and knit bottom for women and kits. What I love most about Minnow knits is that they are appropriate year round, can handle rough and tumble kids and are so classic that they are always in style. I am so excited to share these pieces with you! Here is a sneak peek:
Eek can’t wait to share the rest with you! Be sure to be following me on Instagram as I have a lot of styled content planned to share in my stories.
We shared a big collection of fabulous fall wedding guest dresses for any event on your calendar in these coming months! Wear now and into the holiday season, too.
NEW SHOPBOP HEARTS!
Are really good! I am so excited to add some luxe textures to my rotation. I did order these cute leopard ballet flats and my favorite cord necklace (shared a photo below) that sold out in seconds is back on Shopbop. I also bought this stripe dress for a trip to London in October. Reminder that if you have’t shopped on Shopbop before you can use code NEW20 for 20% off your first purchase!!
My Donni Taffeta pants have sold out a few times but you can get on the waitlist here.
Things I loved this week:
My skin has been all over the place lately. Especially feeling dry with the change of temperature and frequent travel. You all know how much I love VERSED products and their new Daily Recovery Rich Barrier Cream is unbelievable. Only $20 and comparable to some really high end moisturizers I’ve tried before. Definitely recommend!
I just ordered this adorable gingham sherpa from Addison Bay! It came with me to Kansas.
The way I am completely obsessed with Margaux’s newest ballet flat - the Fonteyn. Margaux makes some of my favorite and most comfortable flats! The red satin and green satin are on my wishlist!
Lake’s newest collection is so perfectly early fall! How beautiful is this print?
I want this bandana scarf!
Thank you for being a happy corner of the internet this week and always!!!! ❤️🫶
