Heading into summer, and coming off of several days of nonstop shopping, I am reassessing what I might need heading into the hot Florida summer. Here’s what’s on my wish list:
1. Enameled bangles: The pretty sales associate at Kate Spade gave me a great idea for making bangles and cuffs work on my superskinny wrists: slip a bracelet or two that actually fits at the end of your wrist, to keep the bigger bangles from falling off. Fortunately I have a couple of gold bangles from Egypt that will do the trick, so now I feel like I have more options than ever!
2. Espadrilles: Aside from fun flats, espadrilles are one style of shoe that I refuse to spend a lot on, and they’re a warm weather classic. This summer I’d like a pair of red or orange ones, and maybe something neutral as well.
3. Lipsticks: I am looking for this season’s hot colors – red, pink, or orange, to add a pop of color to my basic summertime face!
4. Fragrance: Trying to find a new scent now that my bottle of Lola is running out. I bought a bottle of a scent that I adore and originally bought on a whim for my mom, Hermes Le Jardin Sur Le Nil. Love that it’s off-the-radar, but not wild about the bottle, and it went down a notch when I found out it’s actually supposed to be unisex. I’m a girly girl. SO I am also considering YSL Belle d’Opium (I got a sample from Sephora), one of the Fresh Sugar scents or Fresh Hesperides (a favorite for years – and perfect for summer), MOR Marshmallow (LOVE Mor, and love the girly packaging – sprayed some on today and I am liking it)…
