Ppl! Hi, hello.
Jumping right back in with things I’m using/loving/wearing as of late. To be (closely) followed by maternity, postpartum & kiddo editions. Any other requests — leave in the comments : )
1. rly gr8 rug:
Just got this for my daughter’s room, and W O W. I think this rug has changed my family’s life??? It’s our new favorite spot in the house. We find ourselves congregating there — reading, playing, napping, kibbitzing, a quick game of ring-around-the-rosy. So soft. So plush. So beautiful. One of the best investments I’ve made. Most importantly, it’s organic and non-toxic. A safe space, in all the ways.

2. rly gr8 sneaker:
I’ve always loved a classic pair of Vans and what they can do for an outfit. I seem to gravitate to them most with an elevated pant — silk, taffeta, satin. Can’t go wrong with the creme, navy, or red. But, this yellow pair felt like a fun departure— it’s even better IRL.
3. rly gr8 tongue scraper (yes, really):
A tongue scraper made the list, and you need one. These are so great 4 u (look it up!). I highly recommend integrating one into your dental hygiene routine. Beyond the health benefits — it’s weirdly satisfying.
4. rly gr8 jean:
Been spending a lot of time in this barrel-leg pair. I am quite partial to vintage Levi’s and struggle to find denim I think compares. These strike the perfect balance — slouchy but polished. Wash is perfect. Under $200. Big win.

5. rly gr8 plate:
A very special gift — or a me-to-me moment. Lucy Michel’s custom ceramic plate is now a forever piece in our home. Ours is on the entryway console and it makes me smile every time I walk in the door. Her ceramics are it.
6. rly gr8 swimsuit:
Panic bought this one-piece while packing for Cabo and so glad I did. I am pretty loyal to Eres for swim but this suit knocked my socks off. The cut and hold are THERE. I love the skinny spaghetti straps. Hard to feel groovy in a swimsuit postpartum — this really delivered.

7. rly gr8 exfoliator
Ditch your loofa asap and get these body scrub mitts. They mean business. Skin soft as silk!!!
8. rly gr8 pouch:
These started as a diaper bag organizers, but now this striped pouch doubles as my going-out clutch. Comes in a 5-pack — highly recommend, all the colors are perfect. Also: follow Dr. Max’s on Instagram if you don’t already. Sparks J O Y! His products + branding are beautiful. Linked my faves below.

Big thanks & big love,
A
So thrilled you are back. And 💛💛 the plimsoll sneakers
