Favorite Things April

FENTY CHEEKS OUT CREAM BRONZER & BLUSH – Thanks to the Sephora sale, I tried out Fenty’s new Cheeks Out Cream Bronzer and Blush. I have loved them so much more than expected. Love the quick, easy sweep of warmth and color, especially these days where I am opting for a more natural look. I have been using my fingers, but also just ordered their shaping brush.

JOGGERS – Being home all the time, I have been living in sweats. So comfy and easy to pull on. Now that it’s warmer, it’s t-shirts and joggers. I’ve found a lot of joggers I love from Old Navy, which you can see in the carousel below.

GUCCI SHEER LIPSTICK IN MILDRED ROSEWOOD & SATIN LIPSTICK IN THE PAINTED VEIL – When I last traveled to India, I picked up a sheer Gucci lipstick at the London airport and thought the color and packaging were absolutely beautiful. Since then, I’ve been wanting to try another shade. During this last Sephora sale, I splurged on Satin shade The Painted Veil and Sheer shade Mildred Rosewood. They feel great and the colors are so beautiful.

ATLAS PEPPER MILL – I love adding pieces to our home that we can treasure over time and this Brass pepper mill is the perfect addition to our kitchen. Super functional and over time, it will patina beautifully. These small details can make a big difference in the spaces you work to create.

MARBLE SALT/PEPPER CELLAR – Apparently, I’m into spices this month. Admittedly I learned a lot about salts (par for the course during quarantine!) and ordered these spice cellars to keep on our table. They are so pretty and super functional. ps. This is the finishing salt we’ve been using and it’s delish!

DISTRESSED VELVET SWIVEL DESK CHAIR – I’ve been looking for a new office chair for some time as I had been using a dining chair that was not comfortable at all, not ideal for 12-hour work days. I knew I wanted something of a certain aesthetic AND that was really comfy. Finally found this one at PB Teen which arrived quicker than expected. IT IS THE BEST. Gorgeous and incredibly comfortable… worth the investment.

MENU WINEBREATHER CARAFE – My husband surprised me with this and it’s my new favorite thing. It aerates your wine in less than a couple minutes by adding up to 10x more oxygen.  This softens the tannins and allows you to experience the full character of the wine. You attach the decanter to the top of your wine bottle and flip it (twice), allowing the oxygen to permeate as it slowly coats the glass.  Check out this video.

TABLE TENNIS SET & NET – My son turned 11 this month and we got him a table tennis set & net that you can attach to any table. During these days when we are all at home, it has been the best thing ever. We have all played a ton, and it’s been so much fun!
