A COLLECTION OF LIFE-LATELY-FAVORITES. PEOPLE, PLACES, AND THINGS ON OUR MINDS...AND IN OUR VIRTUAL SHOPPING CART

Kenesha Sneed is the artist behind Tactile Matter. She can basically do it all, but I am in awe with her ceramic girls, which are handmade, hand-painted and so, so cool.

Really enjoyed the last Salon at Yellow Door Gallery!!  A great opportunity to experience art and community in Des Moines! The next Salon is coming up soon, don't miss out!

Honestly, I have never seen a more gorgeous shoe. Definitely something that you can get away with wearing every day.

Sugarfish by Sushi Nozawa is the best sushi my lips have ever tasted. They have locations in both LA and NYC. Their most popular order is the “trust me” which is several courses of amazing raw fish. The different courses vary between coasts, but I have had both and completely approve. OMG THIS SUSHI IS SO GOOD PLZ BELIEVE ME.

I feel like I have waited all winter for these pieces. Savannah of Merewif really out-did herself with this New Collection, good luck choosing!

I have been REALLY wanting a new tattoo lately....Paolo Bosson please come to the USA!!  

This Instagram account that posts floral arrangements for inspo, so pretty!

This book is blowing my mind right now. I have been listening to the audible version ( which I would not recommend; the narrator sounds like a robot ) I am not going to convert to a lectin free diet or anything but, the more you know…

The new playlist made by our interns, perfect summer vibes! 

When I’m feeling stressed and need some spiritual guidance. I’m currently reading the works of spiritual teacher Ram Dass. Watch his wonderful doc. on Netflix or read from the list of his many books. 

We all watched the Royal wedding, didn’t we? Who was obsessed with Meghan's mom?! What a dream!

My go-to face mask-- it does WONDERS for my skin such as tightening, brightening, and toning and it seems to work on so many different skin types too!

I follow @thegreta for my dose of cool mom style, and hilarious toddler videos.

In the past two weeks, I’ve gone to work, out for afternoon pho, out for dinner pho, met my boyfriend’s parents, walked the dog, had a pool party, grabbed a coffee, and have magically worn this dress alone to each of these occasions. Yesterday would have been 3/3 days my go-to baristas have seen me in this dress. It’s become one of my favorite pieces in my closet by far, I just love it!

... More favorites from babe we love, Alicia Irlmeier, owner Oliver + James:

Currently obsessing over the Coconut + Mint cooling mist from Little Barn Apothecary. Smells amazing, extremely refreshing and sends you into immediate "Just-off-the-beach" summer vibes. Not to mention its organic, vegan and cruelty-free so, win win.

Anyone able should jump at a chance to see Anderson East and Leon Bridges. Both currently on tour with their second albums "Encore" and "Good Thing" -- Been a huge fan since introduced while indulging in the series Big Little Lies.

Speaking of Big Little Lies, dying for season 2 to be released! And fun fact, Meryl Streep will be joining the cast for round 2 so don't miss out!

These Mexican style, soft leather clutches from Cleobella are on my summer splurge list because, yum.

I never leave the house without my favorite Komono and Smith&Cult gloss in "the lovers".
