Happy Friday! What’s better than a summer Friday after a short week? The weather looks a little iffy here, so I’m hoping we at least have some pockets of nice sunshine (or at least no rain). Our pond club is open on weekends now and so I’d love to spend as much time there as possible– the easiest place to hang out with kids and see our friends!
Here’s what has been on my radar this week:
ONE // Minnow Swim Summer Collection
I am absolutely loving Minnow’s latest collection. I swear every time they come out with a new collection, it’s my new favorite. They just keep perfecting their vibes. Minnow sent me a one piece (I am obsessed with the fit) and matching trunks for the boys. I think I’m going to get them one more pair for the summer– the red gingham is darling. And if you have daughters, please do me a favor and get them the cherries! I can’t handle how cute it all is!
TWO // Simon Books’ Bookstore Blitz
What a fun idea for a short form series from a publisher. Special guests are given five minutes and $100 to spend in McNally Jackson book store. It’s a creative way to promote author’s new books and entertaining at the same time. (I wouldn’t know where to start!)
THREE // Clambake Is BACK!
I used to paint my nails all the time with various shades of reds and pinks. One of my go-tos was Clambake and then it was retired! Essie recently brought it back as a limited edition color for the summer. And in a genius touch of marketing, they partnered with Wishbone Kitchen to announce the comeback. Truly genius. Definitely one of the best collabs I’ve seen all year– very on brand for both Essie and Meredith!
FOUR // Navy Knit Maxi Dress
Talk about a chic summer dress. I, obviously, love anything navy, but this maxi knit dress takes it chicness to the next level. The richness of the navy, the gold button detailing, and the texture of the knit?! Not even to mention the elegant length! Love.
FIVE // “They’re 15. Wait Until You Read Their Newspaper.”
This was one of my favorite articles I’ve read in a while. Love to see kids doing something different… A group of teenagers out on Long Island have created a junior newspaper. Completely run by themselves. I felt so hopeful reading this. Like, “the kids are all right.”
