rly gr8 #4

8 gr8 things

I’m back & I missed you.

1. rly gr8 overalls:

I’ve always been an overall gal. Most of mine are vintage but to no surprise Still Here swooped in with a version that is superior. They are so soft they hardly feel like denim and have this really amazing texture which feels LUXE.

Overalls! Shirt! Travel Mug!

2. rly gr8 flip flop:

I was introduced to these when I was 12. In Hawaii we wound up at a general store where my mom bought these for my brother and me. We wore them the rest of the trip and all the locals thought we were locals—I remember we felt very cool. Still wearing them, searching for that cool feeling. I love how they have a way of shifting an outfit just so. Wore them yesterday (in green) with silk pants, white t-shirt and a blazer.

local flip flops. painter pants.

3. rly gr8 fragrance:

It has been 13+ years since my addiction to Jo Malone Nectarine, which I had to wean myself off of. Until now. I have found a scent that made me a believer in fragrance again. It’s fresh, clean, inviting, and somehow just smells like you but a little bit better. Cherry on top, also non-toxic and vegan. My husband loves it too.

Milk Fragrance. Also love extra milk & taunt scents.

4. rly gr8 sunglasses:

Bless my dear friends extremely cool little sis for bringing these into our lives. Wow, do I love them. The lens is very light so you don’t have to constantly take them on and off. Also, great price point. I often shy away from buying sunglasses bc I feel like the good ones are such an investment. Also, other color combos + shapes if these aren’t your jam.

Small Causeway pictured here. Going to try this shape next!

5. rly gr8 brows:

If you live in LA, Maggie should be the only person you let touch your brows. If you don’t live in LA, you shouldn’t let anyone touch your brows. JK. But, it’s worth a trip here just to pay her a visit (call Striiike to schedule). Not only is she the best in the biz, but she’s also a kind & high quality human. Brow products I use daily linked below and are all Maggie approved. And see proof in the pudding back at #4. Those brows are 4 weeks post Maggie visit and still going strong.

I use this for tint followed by this for hold. Wearing baby rib boatneck in powder & sandwash painter pant in olive

6. rly gr8 balm:

Always on the hunt for a universal salve. My daughter, me, the dog, anyone, everyone. I am OBSESSED with Bare Butter. Forget that every single ingredient is actual perfection, but it really works. Full bod post shower, babies tush, sunburn, cracked heels, boo boo. I went through my first container in 3 weeks and just restocked. It’s rly rly gr8. Also, appreciate the thoughtful and customized notes with every purchase I’ve made. Such a pleasure to support this brand.

bare butter forever! chapstick is also 10/10

7. rly gr8 loafer:

The ppl are saying Tod’s loafers are back but I am here to argue they never left. I have a few pairs of my moms from early 2000’s I stuff w/ multiple footpads and pretend they fit me. Just so classic. Per usual, our best friends at TRR have a nice and economical assortment. It’s the suede and bright colors for me!

blue suede shoes always. But also, red, orange & yellow (all on TRR)! Sweater & skirt.

8. rly gr8 mini shoes:

When I found these in mini sizing I was unwell. Been meaning to buy a pair for myself for some time but never landed on a color. Still lusting after the Cafe Leandra x Cayumas pale pink silk pair. Needless to say I will be purchasing a version of these now so I can look as cool as my little chicken.

red velvet mary janes! Use code ALYSSA15 for 15% off (works sitewide & they have so much cute stuff). Also, for grownups, love this brand. My friend Stacy introduced me to their double strap version which I will absolutely be purchasing. Also, more on her pants soon. They’re amazing, waiting for the brand to let me know when they’ll be restocked : )

Big thanks & big love,

A
