ASOS Spike Drop Earrings: I need these. Period. Also, they are TEN DOLLARS. You read that correctly, TEN dollars.
Margarita Ice Pops: With the way the weather has been this past week, there’s nothing more refreshing than a margarita…so make that in ice pop form and it’s win-win.
Diptyque Le Langage de Fleurs Coffret: I’m 100% obsessed with Diptyque candles (Roses and Baies are my favorites) but the combo of Baies, Tubereuse and Jasmin is just heavenly. Now you know what to buy me for the holidays, just saying.
J. Crew Zigzag Sequin Tee: I literally just tried this top on in J. Crew in size XS. It fit but didn’t look good…I had the salesperson look up all the size smalls in the LA area and she could only come up with one store, in the valley. Grab this up in your size ASAP before they’re all sold out. Obsessed.
Bumble & Bumble Surf Spray: It’s totally a California summer thing but lately I’ve been really into the beach hair look. Bumble & Bumble makes the go-to product to get those surfer girl waves.
Beveled Glass Jewelry Box: I love the idea of showing off your prized jewels. I’d use this particular jewelry box to house some of the nicer pieces that I own, but don’t necessarily wear as much.
J. Crew Woven Bangle: I love, love the three different textures in this gold bangle…you can never go wrong with accessories from the Crew.
Rosemary Roasted Almonds: I always snack on almonds but this recipe takes them to another level. I’m also obsessed with rosemary, btw.
Kiehl’s Orange Flower & Lychee Liquid Body Cleanser: I’m a big Kiehl’s fan and so naturally I was super excited when they sent me products from their new Aromatic Blends collection. They’re all delicious but I especially love this exotic fusion. Who doesn’t love lychee?
Sole Society Ryder Block Heel Sandal: At first glance I usually don’t like a thick, block heel like this but after seeing them in person, I’m really into the whole python mixed with patent look.
Jonathan Adler Prozac container: Jonathan makes the kind of home decor that I covet (along with a million other people) and I especially love his quirky, kind of ironic decorations such as this Prozac container.
Ever since I moved to LA, I’ve been obsessed with the famous Chateau Marmont. This week, I decided to dedicate The Monday Rundown to the iconic LA hotspot where so many amazing moments have happened…to Hollywood and us “regular” people. As 1930s producer Harry Cohn said, “if you must get in trouble, do it at the Chateau Marmont.”
Chateau Marmont Signature Candle: There’s something very homey about Chateau so, naturally, I wasn’t surprised when I discovered their signature candle.
Cade Napa Valley Sauvignon Blanc: I’m a big white fan, in general, but there’s something about the wine they serve at Chateau…it’s just chic.
Kiehl’s Activated Sun Protector Sunscreen for Body SPF 50: As you know, I love, love, love all things Kiehl’s…so when they recently launched a new body SPF, I had to try it. As predicted, it’s amazing. It’s lightweight, non-greasy and, of course, paraben-free.
Vodka-infused gummy bears: This idea came to me last week and I’ve been enjoying the result ever since. It’s the perfect summer party snack…or, while you’re watching TV alone. Ha.
Summer is finally here! For me, summer often brings a new sense of self and I get really, really inspired to do all the things that I’ve been putting off for months (e.g. those pesky new years resolutions, etc.). This week I’ll be obsessing about the above:
AE Relaxed Boyfit Denim Shortie: I’m so not a shorts girl so this is kind of major for me. Even though my legs are pretty toned, they’re on the thicker side (thank you dance) and I’ve always been super self-conscious about wearing shorts and, up until recently, even wearing shorter dresses. I like these, in particular, because even though “boyfriend jeans” usually look atrocious on me, when it comes to shorts, the boy cut makes sense. They hang lower on the hips and don’t ride up in the thigh area, which is usually all too familiar for me (though I still recommend going one size up).
Anthropologie Vertices Drink Dispenser: There’s something so spa-like about drinking your water from a fancy glass dispenser. I’ll be cutting up fresh cucumber and soaking them in this container for an extra fancy bonus.
AVEDA Nourish-Mint Smoothing Lip Color: I love, lovvvve this gorgeous red lip color. I saw it on a friend a few weeks ago and honestly, it’s a show-stopper.
Truffle Kale Macaroni and Cheese: The food genius, otherwise known as Felicia Sullivan, re-created this recipe on her blog and I nearly died. This recipe combines three of my favorite things: kale, truffle (anything) and macaroni and cheese. Now if only I could cook…
