Our Top Picks for the Week of April 9, 2018

This week's Top Picks have a warm, sunny, beach-y vibe -- we can pretend, right? -- with a tropical print shift, sunglasses that are as stylish as they are affordable, and clever beach/pool bags. Plus, an updated take on a classic graduation gift, a heavenly bath gel, and the next fun National Letter Writing Month event.Elizabeth: We are so excited to introduce our newest import from Australia -- they seem to have the corner on the market for all things for sunshine and the beach -- Le Specs sunglasses. We have been looking for the perfect compliment to Krewe sunglasses for the clothing store and we finally found it. Cool styles and a great price! Bandwagon shown; come in and check out the entire selection. (Available at The Hive, from $59)Amy: Penny Post’s National Letter Writing Month fun continues this week with a Letter Box project at AR Workshop this Saturday, April 14th!

It’s hard to go wrong with pearl earrings, and these dual-sided earrings give a fashionable update to a traditional gift. Perfect for her first job interview and for after-work cocktails. (Available at Alexandria and Company, $235)Alicia: Can you tell how much we’re tired of the cold weather? You know winter has overstayed its welcome when you’re dreaming of split leaf Philodendrons and Monstera Deliciosa. We love the Coley Crew Neck A-Line Dress, Alice + Olivia’s take on the classic shift with a tropical botanical print. (Available at TSALT, $285)Sarah: Whether for a gift for a friend or yourself, these cheeky totes with embellished letters are a sure-fire hit! (Available at Kiskadee, $77)Angela: Made in France the lovely Provence Sante Shower Gels foam up beautifully and come in the most amazing scents. I can't decide from day to day which is my favorite, so I'll go with today's fave: lavender. The calming scent is so light and fresh. (Available at Bellacara, $20)
