From Caitlin: Earlier this week, I discovered myself glued to my couch whereas binge-watching all 6 episodes of Netflix’s new sequence, Hitmakers. It’s a fast, simple watch that follows a number of the world’s main songwriters via three completely different writing camps. I LOVED IT. I labored in a recording studio in a previous life and had by no means seen the artistic course of documented so precisely – it felt like I used to be again in a room, pitching concepts and phrases. It was a BLAST, and the present jogged my memory how enjoyable it was to faucet into that artistic, collaborative vitality! (PS. Right here’s the largest hit that my workforce wrote – the demo was spun up through the 2012 World Cup. The unique refrain was truly simply the Olé chant time and again, but it surely was tweaked to a “actual refrain” when Avicii minimize the monitor. Are you able to inform?!)
Additionally From Caitlin: This is perhaps TMI (learn: it’s undoubtedly TMI) however post-pandemic, I sometimes put on a sports activities bra day-after-day – I hate wires, am consistently coping with spillage on the high (why are my boobs formed so bizarre?!), and lots of the straps on the 36F choices make me really feel like I’m 90, not 33. So when certainly one of my trusty sports activities bras bit the mud final month, I figured I’d check out this $34 bralette different. GUYS, IT’S MIRACULOUS. It seems toddler-sized – I actually laughed after I picked it up – but it surely someway holds my ladies in AND up. (I imply, it’s not a push-up bra, however there’s a particular distinction. I obtained it within the XL!) I wouldn’t suggest any of Skims’ different bras -I have tried virtually all of them, none work for me personally – however I discover myself turning to this baby-sized bralette day-after-day. It’s been via a number of laundromat washer/dryer cycles with no points, and it’s infinitely extra wearable than my sports activities bra options. If this suggestion might help one different wire-hating, cozy bra-loving gal, I can be thrilled!!!
From Jess: Whereas at my dad’s this previous weekend, he was very excited to point out me his new wax hearth pit. It’s an eco-friendly different that doesn’t make any mess and is cute! You don’t want any wooden as a result of it’s powered by 100% biodegradable vegetable wax. He loves it as a result of it’s good for his small patio, will get 8 hours value of burn time, and once more, he doesn’t have to wash up after it. It will probably additionally act as a stool if you’re not utilizing it. An ideal approach to keep outdoors so long as doable:) Right here’s a hyperlink to the refills the place there’s a citronella possibility too. See ya bugs!
From Mallory: My favourite sports activities bra is definitely this one from Lululemon (been carrying it on repeat for over a 12 months now), and I couldn’t adore it extra. I’ve it in white, after which I additionally snagged it in a mauve and (obtained the matching shorts) and so they’re SO cute – put on it on a regular basis!! I sometimes dimension up in Lulu sports activities bras (I obtained a 6) fyi:)
From Arlyn: As soon as my knees began sounding like a bag of popcorn within the microwave, I seemed into introducing some collagen into my life. I attempted Very important Proteins and favored it sufficient however to be trustworthy, I’m not even certain what “liking” a collagen powder is meant to seem like. However I’ve been utilizing Bubs Collagen Peptides for six months since I discovered it via a Fb advert and it’s nice! Sure, my knees nonetheless crackle like Rice Krispies in milk, however they don’t actually harm anymore in order that’s a plus, yeah? Principally, I’m glad to squeeze in 18 grams of additional protein in my morning espresso (it’s warmth tolerant), which is a large win for me basically!
From Marlee: That is certainly one of my fave heavyweight sweatshirts ever – I’ve had the identical one for five years at this level and I’m nonetheless loving it. It’s tremendous plush and the proper outsized – I’d say it’s fairly true to dimension and has a brilliant large hood that’s so good for lounging round in (I hate when sweatshirt hoods are small/tight, however in case you don’t prefer it outsized, this may not be for you). It’s undoubtedly definitely worth the value IMO, contemplating I’ve worn mine practically each week for the previous 5 years. Price per put on has obtained to be pennies at this level! This one is extra of a slouchy, straight down the torso match, however in order for you it slightly extra fitted/tapered on the waist, this one can be an amazing selection:) I simply have black, however they each are available tremendous cute colours.
From Gretchen: I picked up this tremendous cute, tiered swing gown from Outdated Navy the opposite day, and I actually prefer it! It’s not something too groundbreaking. It’s a light-weight material and really breezy, and the reddish brown plaid simply appears like me. The sleeves grasp properly, and I like you can put on them on or off the shoulder. However largely, I simply respect that it’s as simple to throw on as a t-shirt–stretchy, no zippers, loads of flowy material. I wore it the opposite day with a cropped hoodie over high and was stunned at simply how cute it seemed collectively, however I’ve additionally loved carrying it with no layers and only a cute pair of sandals. Inexpensive, cute, and straightforward!
