Our Top Picks for the Week of July 12, 2021

From beach trips to backyard dinners here in Alexandria, we are on full-time summer mode! This week's Top Picks are here to help with gifts for those summer celebrations, hot weather, and spicing up any dinner dish. Amy shares a sea salt set needed in every kitchen, and Angela's top pick is a cult favorite back in a new shade. Elizabeth's top pick is selling so fast, I'd run to The Hive, and Celeste shares something for birthday fun that will make anyone want to party!

 

Amy: Salt has a way of magically transforming flavors, so just imagine the possibilities of infused salts. This Infused Sea Salt Set makes a great gift or a way to keep things interesting in your own kitchen. Each vial comes with tasting notes and pairing suggestions. (Available at Red Barn Mercantile, $32.50,)

 

Angela: Fresh Lip Balm SPF 15 in Velvet is a cult favorite. This hydrating lip balm is now available in a gorgeous new shade. The color is universally flattering, and we love it! (Available at Bellacara, $24)

 

Elizabeth: Nothing says summer like a jean short, and the Reese by Agolde is always a summertime favorite. We just got it back in stock, and we are sure they won't last long, just like summer. (Available at The Hive, $128)

 

Celeste: This fun cup is the perfect birthday gift! With a confetti popper and a noisemaker, it's sure to make the birthday girl smile. Add a mini bottle of wine, and it's the complete package. (Available at Kiskadee, $20)
