Our Top Picks for the Week of August 13, 2018

Stars! Stripes! Polka dots! And...puppies! Something for everyone to love in this week's top picks. And speaking of love, how amazing are these pink (pink!) opal earrings, and we're bordering on an obsession with Herbivore products.Elizabeth: Polka dot perfect brought to you by our favorite, Ulla Johnson. The Adalene Pullover is made in Peru from the softest cotton. You will be happy when the nights get colder. (Available at The Shoe Hive, $450)Amy: Did you know there are more than 150 breeds of dogs? Yep. And, we’ve got ‘em. Well not all of them, but quite a few. Share your love of corgis, shepherds, and labs with all your friends and family with boxed notes from Rachel Canada. They will thank you for it! (Available at Penny Post, $12)Alicia: Looking for ideal “buy now, wear now” items? The Scarf Tie Tee gives you a fresh way to wear your white or ivory wide-leg pants or your white denim now and then transition into your black denim all the way into November! I think it would look great under a blazer for work, as well. (Available at TSALT, $128)Angela:Rose Hip, Sea Buckthorn, Meadowfoam, and Neroli oils, combined with Chia Seed Co2, dramatically re-hydrate and revitalize the skin. In contrast to traditional cream moisturizers and lotions, which can be high in water and emulsifying agents but low in truly effective ingredients, Herbivore's facial oils contain no fillers and are formulated with only truly natural ingredients. They absorb easily to get moisture, vitamins, fatty acids, and antioxidants into your skin and they form a natural barrier to lock moisture in. The Phoenix Facial Oil is a game changer. (Available at Bellacara, $88)Meaghan: Ani, our manager, is going to a wedding next week in Big Sur and I am, of course, very jealous. To cope with my FOMO I'm imagining what I would wear if I were attending this soiree and these blush pink briolette earring would most certainly be making an appearance. Paired with a salmon pink Emerson Fry wrap dress and gold strap-y sandals and maybe I could blend in with the sunset and no one would notice me gate crashing... (Available at Alx&Co., $342, 14k yellow gold with pink opal briollette drops)Celeste: A star is born! A shimmery constellation of studs adds stellar detailing to this classic loafer made from buttery-soft suede and fitted with a cushioned footbed. Patricia Green does it again! (Available at Kiskadee, $230)
