Simply Found #73
Happy Monday (and November!) I hope you all had a lovely weekend.
I am jumping in to share a few recent purchases and items I love as of late. Stay tuned for a new gift guide tomorrow!
Clockwise from top left:
Blue Needlepoint Project Bag: As you all know, I am such a fan of Shannon and her business, Greystone Needlepoint, so I was thrilled to see her collaborate with another small business I am a fan of, Lewis. This x-large zip bag is perfect for storing any needlepoint projects you are currently working on!
Shearling Fleece with Floral Trim: If you follow me on Instagram, you have probably noticed that I am more or less always wearing this fleece from Sea NY these days. It has become my favorite go-to item as of late! It is just so cozy. I also love how it is basically a statement outfit within one item - I simply pair it with leggings and sneakers and call it a day.
*You can shop more of my favorite shearling fleeces in this blog post.
Summer Fridays Lip Balm: Can you ever have enough lip balms and chapstick during the winter months? I recently re-ordered this Summer Fridays version - consider it an elevated vaseline.
Printed Cotton Maxi Skirt: No one can rock a long flowy skirt like my mom. So as soon as I saw this blue floral skirt, I texted it to her, as I knew it would be right up her alley!
*update: my mom ordered this skirt and it arrived. She loves the print/skirt overall but she said the sizing is FUNKY! It runs quite large! So be sure to read the size guide, check the measurements and order down a size or maybe a few.
Scallop Edge Black Leggings: As soon as I saw the email from IVL Collective come into my inbox this week saying their Scallop Edge Black Legging was back in stock, I promptly stopped working and placed an order! These days, I wear leggings day in and day out (whether or not I am exercising!!), so I will always reach for this scalloped pair as they seem a bit more fun! (I can't wait to have a second set now to add to my rotation.)
My other go-to leggings are:
the Fast & Free Leggings from Lulu for cardio workouts
this $25 style from Amazon for yoga, pilates or just wearing throughout the day while running errands or lounging at home. (These Amazon leggings are known as a cheaper dupe for the Lulu's align leggings but I actually prefer them over my aligns!
Heart Pillow in Liberty Fabric: How cute is this boudoir pillow in the shape of a heart in a chic liberty print?
Hand-Painted Ceramic Pitchers: How fun are these hand-painted ceramic pitchers from Wicklewood? They would be so chic on a tablescape arranged with flowers or even just for water. I have my eye on one of the frogs!
Nori Press: With my tiny apartment and limited storage space, having an iron is out of the question, but I have never felt like I really got the hang of steaming. (To me, no matter how much you steam a dress or tablecloth, it never compares to the crispness of ironing...) So when I saw some friends on Instagram share about this new device by Nori, I knew it might be up my alley. It is essentially an iron and steamer in one (almost like a straightener!) I ordered a Nori Press this week, so I will be sure to report back.
