From my January newsletter — enjoy, girlfriends.

HOME
I recently found the loveliest hand-etched glassware! Reminded me of this glassware by Carolina Irving, but much less expensive (they seem a lot less fragile as well). Also, this pitcher… too sweet.
In the process of updating our lighting/fixtures, and I’m endlessly inspired by all of Aerin’s creations. She has a unique way of fusing traditional with modern, which I appreciate.
I love Le Labo x Laundress detergent, but it’s pricey! The Jenni Kayne x Laundress detergent is about half the cost and, in my opinion, smells even better (plus, 15% off with MEGAN15 — yayyy!).
WELLNESS
Getting back into the groove with my foam roller — it’s one of my favorite tools. I use it to massage my muscles, but also to support my back during “legs up the wall” for reverse blood flow. (Here’s a good article on ways to use a foam roller.)
For years, I’ve taken Seed synbiotic every morning on an empty stomach to help with digestion and gut health. It’s game-changer. Never do I travel without it. (MeganK15 for 15% off first month.)
BEAUTY
Dry skin season, and lots of questions related to a good facial moisturizer. Here are my favorites priced lowest to highest: YTTP Adaptogen Moisture, Goop All-in-One, Augustinus Bader Rich Cream, and Omorovicza Blue Diamond Super Cream (expensive, but absolute perfection).
Westman Atelier came out with singular eye pods (rather than the sets) and I’ve been wearing this champagne color almost everyday. A nice way to emphasize a low-key makeup look.
WEARBLES —
Been on an Anine Bing kick this winter, starting with this houndstooth jacket, to this overcoat, to these sunnies.
I wear Michael Star’s thermal every night recently—it’s warm but lightweight, so perfect for winter. I have the Frances Henley and Jaden Pant in the “chalk” color.
A bit obsessed with FREDA recently — I just adore how each shoe is timeless with just the slightest edge to create a subtle statement (the tiny studs get me). They’re also incredibly comfortable and lightweight. My favorites are the Brooke Rain Resistant boot, the Emi Lug boot, and the cashmere ribbed socks. (15MEGAN for 15% off).
