Let’s just say the EHD team had maybe too good of a time this past week in Portland (like a “sorry we didn’t post on Thursday” good time:)). But the great news is we did a lot of brainstorming and planning too so get ready for some great content! We hope you had a great week too and we promise another VERY fun week on the blog. But in case you missed the LIVING ROOM REVEAL last Monday or Em’s re-entry into YouTube-verse then we are in for an extra treat. Ok, let’s link up!
This week’s house tour is an Upper East Side modern gem. Modern design can easily feel cold but when you add enough vintage and let Ashe Leandro in charge, that will never be an issue. Go check out this chic yet playful apartment.
From Emily: I just got these Nikes and wear them ALL THE TIME. They are super comfortable and make any outfit I wear look cooler. Ochre, tan, and brown aren’t my normal go-to colors but they go really well with anything since they are all neutrals.
From Caitlin: Literally had my mind blown by these marble floors in a cathedral in Siena – I’ve never seen anything like it. (You’ll get what I mean when you click through to look at the photos, I swear.) Like…craftsman in the 1300s used marble and stucco to make that? The level of detail is extraordinary – I can’t even imagine how much care and thought went into making each cut of marble! (The floors are preserved under fiberboard for most of the year, but they’re on display through 7/31 and again between 8/18 and 10/18 for only $9! If you’re in Tuscany this summer, stop by and check it out for me, please!!!
From Mallory: If you have any fancy events or weddings coming up – these shoes are my absolute favorite heels to wear because they’re comfy and just so incredibly cute. I have them in green but am tempted to also get them in blush so they go with more. If you’re not a “heels person” (I shouldn’t be because I constantly sprain my ankle but I wear them anyway), then these are a good, less high option (and I’m in love with the velvet!!!)
Is anyone in LA next weekend?? Lone Fox (aka Drew Michael Scott) is lending his talents to Soho Home and partnering with them on a vintage pop-up at their Melrose store. It will be a collection of one-of-a-kind vintage pieces curated by Drew and if you go on Saturday, July 29th from 10am-11am he’s doing a meet and greet! We love both Drew and Soho so this is a very exciting partnership:) The collection will live in the front part of Soho Home from July 29th-August 26th.
From Arlyn: Over the past few months, I’ve been trying to get out and be more active, specifically by going on walks or jogs with my daughter in tow (jogger strollers are a Godsend). I have a weird thing about my arms, so tank tops aren’t really in my wardrobe vocabulary, but it’s been SO hot and I needed something lightweight and not suffocating. I found this crewneck active T-shirt at Target and it checked all of my boxes: comfortable, not hot, quick dry, available in an array of colors to buy a few, and cheap. Ding ding ding! I have it in three colors (the lilac is my favorite), and just ::gasp:: bought one of the racerback tanks, too. It’s a good length on my 5’3″ frame, so heads up if you’re taller, some of the reviews say it runs short.
From Jess: I just got a new pair of mid-rise jeans that I love! They are cropped with a raw hem and are just super flattering. While I’ve been very pro high-rise, the mid-rise life is really growing on me.
Ok, go enjoy the rest of the day and see y’all tomorrow. xx
