Hi friends,
Welcome to my first monthly roundup! I wanted a space to share the indulgences that made this month feel special—things I wore, read, cooked, and bookmarked. Just imagine us catching up over coffee, chatting about our latest obsessions. Here’s everything I loved this July:
Summer Read: The Shell Seakers
A beautifully layered story about history, family, friendship, and a life well lived — the vivid characters, tender writing, and charming English setting make it a perfect read for slow summer afternoons. Read it.
Homemade Avgolemono Soup
Bright with lemon, cozy with rice and egg. Serve with crunchy bread and lots of good butter. It's hot out but I don't care, this soup is too good. Recipe.
Newbealer Fabric Steamer
I have a great deal of linen in my closet, so a serious steamer is necessary! This one holds a lot of water and can hang in your closet. So far I love it! Shop it.
The Palisades Maxi Skirt with Pockets
This skirt has such an airy, romantic feel. Perfect for picking up our marraige license before a celebratory lunch at Sugarfish in Manhattan Beach. Shop it.
50’s/60’s Lofi Playlist
Vintage vocals + modern chill. It’s been the perfect background to lazy breakfasts and creative afternoons. Listen.
Tan-Luxe The Water Self-Tanning Mist
I'm all about keeping my skin healthy and preserving my tattoos, which means come summertime I am slathered with sunscreen. No natural tanning for me. I like the ease of this water spray. Shop it.
Giorgio Armani Luminous Silk Foundation
Recommended by my wedding hair & makeup artist, Holly Harnwell. This is my new favorite foundation. Shop it.
Max Packs Oil Paint Brushes for Procreate
These digital brushes have so much texture and soul—I’ve been "painting" non-stop. Looking to add some painterly prints to next season's collection. Create.
Strava Running App
This app gave me a new relationship with running. It’s social, motivating, and actually kind of fun? Try it.
Oyku Stoneware Dishset
The color reminds me of the sea. Handmade in Portugal. Every meal feels a little more special. Shop it.
Summer Blueberries
In yogurt, in salads, by the handful. They’ve been so good this month I had to give them their own shoutout.
Tezza’s Solara Filter
Warm, glowy, and nostalgic—it made all my photos from this month look like a sun-soaked memory. Try it.
That’s it for this month’s favorites! I hope you found something here to love too. Want more next month? Join our newsletter to get updates, inspiration, and first looks at new designs.
