Y’all we made it to spring. The time of floral dresses, cleaning, and if you can, a warm-weather holiday. So while we are all looking forward to warmer days, this year is already flying by. So take a minute today to slow down. It is Sunday after all:) Here are this week’s links…
This week’s house tour is so good! Jennifer Bunsa did such an incredible job creating a calming space that is still full of pattern and color. It’s all about negative space:) Please go enjoy all of the happy patterns, very special kitchen hardware, and a lot more.
From Emily: I forgot how much I love jeans with big utility pockets (I think it does this illusion that is very flattering). So I finally ordered these because I wore my pair this week also from the same brand, which I loved. I’m excited to try them.
From Emily: First, there was Lego Masters. Then Blown Away. Then The Great Pottery Thrown Down, then Making It, then Magic For Humans BUT THE BEST ALL FAMILY-FRIENDLY CREATIVE COMPETITION SHOW HAS JUST BEEN INVENTED. And when I say “all family-friendly” I mean Brian AND I, Charlie AND Elliot. We all are obsessed with it. It’s called Making Fun and it’s HILARIOUS and so impressive. The premise is four macho builders have a wacky invention for whatever kid who gets selected (from the audience). The guys are legit hilarious (and they “hate” kids), they are crazy skilled/talented, and the producers are having the best time behind the scenes. It’s by far the best-produced reality competition show Brian and I have watched in this genre. We laugh hard and we just LOVE IT.
From Jess: I just discovered this black-owned athleisure brand from TikTok creator, Cindy Noir. I’ve really been wanting bright red leggings and these look so cute. Plus they are size inclusive and the red ones, in particular, are on sale!
Also From Jess: I’m on the hunt for a black bathing suit because I need one for a bachelorette weekend. It’s required. Naturally, I went to Target and found this one. I’m don’t think it’s the right vibe for the trip but I really liked it! It’s full coverage (the girls aren’t going anywhere), supportive, but is still a little sexy.
Also Also From Jess: Has anyone else started watching Minx on HBOMax?! Here’s the very short overview: “In 1970s Los Angeles, an earnest young feminist joins forces with a low-rent publisher to create the first erotic magazine for women.” It’s funny, heartfelt, and Jake Johnson and Lennon Parham are in it! If you loved Nick in New Girl, this is a very happy TV return. FYI there is A LOT of full-frontal nudity so if that’s not your thing then this may not be for you. But it’s seriously great and I can’t wait for more episodes.
From: Mallory: My favorite blue jeans are 25% off right now (use code SHOPSPRING). I love wearing them with a striped turtle neck or they would look SO cute with a sweater like this (that blue color omg).
Also from Mallory: I found a Le Labo Santal candle dupe and it’s honestly pretty good. Urban Outfitters is selling “Santal Supreme’’ now and honestly for $14 it’s super similar and is a really great deal. I highly recommend if you’re wanting to be boujee on a budget 🙂
From Caitlin: OMG. Is anyone else listening to the Twin Flames podcast? It follows how far some folks will go for true love – with the help of two YouTube-famous gurus, of course – and it’s ASTOUNDING. Prison time! Cease and desist letters! Complete transformation of identity! Each episode is ~30 minutes and the final one comes out tomorrow – I can’t wait. (Levity-wise, it’s like an Investigation Discovery show. It’s serious but easy to listen to.)
Also From Caitlin: Calling all folks who want the Reformation look on a budget – this long-sleeved linen dress from J. Crew is lightweight AND breathable AND perfect for spring AND available in everything from an XXS to a 3XL. The slit is even better IRL, too. Highly recommended (especially in the French blue).
From Ryann: I did it. I found the most comfortable sweats. I know I know, hold for applause. But honestly, these sweats are the ones I will dig through my laundry basket for every time. They have the softest inside but also have a wide leg and waistband that is not constricting whatsoever. And they are cute! Definitely cute enough to wear out and about and not feel frumpy. Now that I am thinking about it, I might buy another pair just in case Target is ever are foolish enough to stop selling them.
Ok, see y’all tomorrow xx
