Happy Sunday everyone! We told you we had two amazing reveals, didn’t we? So different but both are incredibly perfect. In case you missed them, we’re talking about the farmhouse craft shed/art barn and the river house primary bathroom. And in even better news, we have another SUPER FUN farmhouse reveal tomorrow. Can you guess what it is?? While you’re thinking let’s get to these links.
This week’s house tour is about a very special home in Guatemala, designed by the owners Molly Berry and her husband Juan. We feel like this quote says it all, “Decorating took time. The couple sourced materials from the sustainable tree farm Juan manages (alongside cocoa, he grows endangered tropical hardwoods like mahogany, rosewood, and teak) to construct everything from the coffee table to kitchen island stools.” Go take a look at this warm, intentionally designed home!
From Emily: It should be no surprise that our favorite food chef/blogger would make such delicious-smelling candles, and yet when I opened them up we were so blown away by how good the Half Baked Harvest x Sniff candles, smelled. They smell like the holidays in the best of ways (not chemically, just like delicious smelling scents like apple cider smash and pumpkin smash (that has the following notes: pumpkin spice • cinnamon stick • cardamom • whiskey • brûléed orange • salted maple • roasted chocolate). A huge congrats to Tieghan Gerard for making another product I love (and I’m so excited about her upcoming book called Quick and Cozy – you can pre-order it here which always helps the author:))
From Jess: I just got maybe my most favorite sports bra yet. It’s from Vuori (my first purchase from them) and it’s the perfect mix of simple and a drop of sexy. I love the look of the straps on the back and the tiny cutouts on the side. Clean and cool. It says it’s medium support so better for walking, yoga, pilates, errands, etc. Less great for running or jumping, especially if you have larger boobs. I’m VERY tempted to get another because I want to wear it all of the time!
From Gretchen: Two, separate friends of mine were rocking equally adorable jackets recently and when I asked each of them where they were from, they both had the same answer: Old Navy! Now, I’m no stranger to a good Old Navy find, but man, their clothes have really been catching my eye lately. Sadly, one of the jackets is already sold out (maybe it’ll come back in stock soon? Fingers crossed!) but the other cute, quilted jacket is still available in a few sizes! I tried on my friend’s in a size large and it fit perfectly. Nice and lightweight, still roomy, and I appreciate that it covers my butt. A great jacket for fall–I’m adding it to my cart as we speak!
From Caitlin: You know J. Crew’s famous all-cotton tissue turtlenecks? They’re currently less than half the price over at J. Crew Factory (and I think the Factory ones are higher quality, to boot!). Every few years, I get SUPER into layering with turtlenecks – I guess the obsession has returned this year. I’m really excited to pair them under this denim shift dress with some sheer tights (these tights don’t rip and are more than worth the investment), some cute socks, and whatever shoe fits with the vibe. Long live turtlenecks!
From Mallory: One of my favorite designers/artists is Luke Edward Hall and I really want to incorporate some of his vibe/essence into my new apartment…so in doing some research I ordered this book of his (which came out in 2019) and I’m devouring every single page. The reason I bought this book over some others is because of his work for the Parker Palm Springs and The Flamingo Estate (they’re phenomenal) and I wanted to get a closer look. Highly recommend checking it out (it’s also cute on a coffee table or bookshelf!)
From Arlyn: In my house, we don’t really buy juices or sofas. I could strictly drink water and my daily coffee and be happy, but sometimes, I want my beverage during mealtime to feel a little more special. We were going through two 8-can packs of sparkling water on a weekly basis and finally decided to invest in a carbonator instead. I did a ton of research weighing aesthetics, performance, price, and bubble quality. While I was tempted to pull the trigger on a much more expensive yet beautiful model from Aarke, after reading reviews, I actually settled on the Drinkmate Omnifizz instead, and let me tell you, it makes a mean bottle of sparkling water. The bubbles are so small and fizzy, so it feels more like Perrier than La Croix. Plus, it’s one of the only models that lets you carbonator almost any beverage (we gave some rose a whirl and really enjoyed it). It doesn’t require any electricity so no need to plug it in, and they have a great recycling program for the CO2 canisters. We’re so happy we finally made the switch.
Thanks for stopping by and hope you’re ready for another VERY fun farmhouse reveal tomorrow. See you then! xx
