4 Favorites for August
Can you even believe it’s August?
This week marks a year since we moved to Utah. In some ways it feels like ten minutes, and in other ways, our life in Arizona feels like a distant dream.
I’ve gathered up a few of my current favorite items that have been making my life better on a daily basis and I thought I’d share them here – every one of these is something I use almost daily!
4 Favorites for August
- The BEST cutting board. I got the smaller one (it comes in a two-pack on Amazon) at a dinner I went to with Kelsey Nixon a few months ago and it’s quickly become the cutting board I reach for EVERY time. The small size means that it’s perfect for cutting up an apple or a peach or some strawberries and the little rubber feet means it doesn’t slip around. Did I mention it’s dishwasher safe? I LOVE this thing.
- Drawer organizers. My sister Merrick recommended these earlier this year and when we got a new dresser for our bedroom, I ordered two sets of them so I could organize my jewelry, my makeup and my hair products in the smaller top drawers (this is life without a master bathroom). I love that you can arrange them however you’d like and I used these clear dots to adhere them to the bottom of the drawers so they don’t slide around when I open or shut the drawers.
- Gold and white sneakers. I bought these sneakers a few weeks ago when I was looking to add a sportier pair of shoes to my closet and I love them so much. They are super comfortable and I like the slim profile – it’s basically hard not to wear them every day and I’m certain I’ll be wearing them all fall long. (They also have a navy and rose gold version that is super cute).
- Overnight Balm. I mentioned back in April this sunscreen that goes under your makeup that I got for our Hawaii trip and I’ve had more questions about it than just about any product ever. A month or so ago, I got a new night balm from their line and I am OBSESSED with it – it’s so smooth and my skin looks so even and clear that I’ve mostly stopped wearing foundation. It’s basically a miracle in a jar.
What are your favorite things right now?
I’ve been loving all the organization stuff you’ve been doing lately in your house! It’s given me some good motivation to get projects done in our place!
