Our Top Picks for the Week of April 27, 2020

We may still be in full quarantine mode, but this week's top picks are all about prepping for the warmer days ahead. It's time to refresh not only your beauty routine, but also in your closet and home for summer! Celeste has found the most adorable house slippers that will instantly elevate any outfit. Tamara's pick is a gingham-inspired top that you simply can't pass on this season. Angela's pick isn't just a cult-favorite, but it's lightweight, dewy, and still packs the punch to ward off those harmful UV rays. Have an important Zoom meeting coming up? You don't want to miss the chance to shop Elizabeth's pick this week at her Frank & Eileen trunk show. Pottery that doubles as a gorgeous flower display and can be used as a sangria pitcher?! Make sure to shop Amy's pick at Red Barn Mercantile.  Angela: The Supergoop Glow Stick is a must-have for summer. It's mess free, travel-friendly, and the SPF is totally invisible. It's also majorly hydrating and perfect to use as a face or body highlighter, as it leaves behind a dewy finish without an oily residue. Keep one in your purse for easy on-the-go SPF protection! (Available at Bellacara, $25)Tamara: This isn't the first spring we've been obsessed with gingham, and it certainly won't be the last. The Smythe Asymmetrical Gingham Top is a must have item for this season. (How adorable is the asymmetrical top?!) (Available at TSALT, $295)Elizabeth: This week we are hosting another virtual trunk show with our favorite shirt brand, Frank & Eileen. There are a variety of fits and fabrics, so you can find a style that works for you. My staple piece is the "Frank" - a little oversized but not too much and I mean, you can’t go wrong with a white shirt! (Available at The Hive, $238)Celeste: I have a small obsession with "house shoes" and slippers these days. I wanted to have a fun pair for my Kiskadee customers and I found this sweet pair. They are perfect for strutting around the house and they make me smile just looking at them! (Available at Kiskadee, price ranging from $38)Amy: We are in the middle of our Farmhouse Pottery Trunk Show, so it seems appropriate to feature one of their gorgeous handmade pieces. We can't take our eyes off of these Countryman pitchers, which function perfectly for big batches of lemonade or sangria, but also look amazing packed with fresh flowers. Available in two sizes, these beauties, along with all other Farmhouse Pottery items on our website, are 15 percent off through April 30! (Available at Red Barn Mercantile, $165-$245 - less 15% through April 30)
