From my June newsletter — enjoy, girlfriends.

Simple kitchen additions! Just elevated my baking experience with these brass measuring spoons and cups. Also have to highlight this sweet berry bowl too.
Raffia coasters add a sweet summery spark.
My recent Etsy wins: these stemless wine glasses and bud vase! The artist reached out to me on IG and is gifting me new pieces I’m excited to share — he is so talented and sells his beautiful glasswork at a reasonable price.

After buying too many matcha oatmilk lattes, I realized I needed to begin crafting my own at home. I love this matcha powder (and I also got this whisk to make it all come to life). Unlike coffee, there is L-Theanine in matcha to combat those caffeine jitters.
Speaking of L-Theanine—Michael and I take these supplements with morning coffee. L-Theanine has loads of benefits: it makes us mentally and emotionally calmer, it helps us focus and improves retention and recall, it also increases dopamine.
Intrigued the by Theragun, but scared by the price tag? Just realized there was a more affordable mini and I am on the verge of splurge.

iS Clincal may be the most effective skincare line I’ve ever dabbled in. I just got their Active Serum, a glycolic acid formula that makes my skin glow like no other (it’s their most popular product).
I recently bought this non-toxic fingernail polish remover. I like to let my fingernails breathe (with no polish) for 1-2 days before painting them again.
*Side note: I recently wrote a blog on my favorite go-to neutral colors for the “no manicure” manicure look.
A new line I just discovered: Nature of Things. I’ll be honest, I am a total sucker for the branding, but it’s insane quality too. I currently have their body cream, and I’m going for the floral bubble bath next.

A chic-but-easy event dress I just got: this little number. Great for a wedding, graduation, dinner date, etc.
With warmer weather here, I’m looking at swimsuits — and for some reason, I’m very drawn to white (1, 2, 3) and brown (1, 2, 3) one-pieces right now.
Often asked about my favorite athletic items: love these tights for running, this sport bra for all activities, and also, my beloved Ultraboost (been loyal to these running shoes for years).
