Phew - thank goodness for 4-day work weeks. I say we make this a habit, shall we? IF ONLY!
We spent last weekend in Orlando (see my weekend snaps here!) so getting back into the swing of things was hard. Luckily, there were lots of fun things I had planned for the week ahead!
Wednesday I met up my friend, Leah, for a little shopping trip in Georgetown. We grabbed a quick bite at Chaia then popped over to a few of my favorite local shops, Lynn Louisa! I picked up some sassy shorts that I canât wait to show you soon!
Shopping at Lynn Louisa
Later that evening, I attended the opening of the new Blue Mercury shop in Cathedral Commons and got to meet the companyâs founders, Marla and Barry Beck! I got some great skincare secrets that Iâll be sharing on the blog next week! In the meantime, be sure to check out their new location at Cathedral Commons at 3320 Wisconsin Ave., NW.
While at the Blue Mercury event, I snagged a few of my favorite products - their M-61 makeup remover (the best one Iâve tried so far!) and the Oribe Supershine Cream. Friends, itâs an investment, I know. But after using up my sample size version of this, I knew I had to go ALL IN. Itâs the only way I survive the summer humidity and the winter static-hair syndrome.
Inspiring read of the week - this post by the Be. Bangles founder will make you realize youâre worth more than you give yourself credit for.
This weekend will be ALL ABOUT the gardening. In case you didnât know, Iâm a little old lady at heart. Weâll be planting zucchini, summer squash, spinach, heirloom tomatoes, cilantro, thyme, basil, and more. As long as it doesnât rain.
Are you addicted to the farmerâs market? Then you wonât want to miss this post where I share my tips on how to make the most of your trip!
