My bff and magnificence icon Georgie was sporting sparkly jellies the opposite day, and it acquired me questioning: what footwear will you be sporting this summer time? I’ve worn these all winter, however I’m undecided what my sandal plan is. Inform me your ideas!
The opposite day, our pals Rob and Kath invited us over and made creamy white rooster chili. Toppings included rice, bitter cream, cheddar cheese, scallions, avocado, lime, and crushed-up tortilla chips. (Is there something crushed-up chips don’t make higher?) “This soup is sweet for a cocktail party as a result of it’s not fussy to make,” Rob advised me. I’m considering of constructing spherical two this weekend.
My pals have raved about these slip shorts for years (our contributor Kelsey wore them in her week of outfits) for stopping thigh chafe and wicking away sweat. The shorts, after all, are nice for figuring out, operating errands, or layering underneath a sweatshirt for that Princess Diana look. However I’m planning to put on them underneath summer time attire so I can really feel blissfully free on adventures, versus sitting uncomfortably at picnics or attempting to maintain my knees collectively on bike rides. The cargo model has pockets (!), however on scorching days, I’ll be pulling on their cooling pair.
Lastly, how beautiful is that this youngsters’s bed room in Alexandra Tolstoy’s English cottage? My children can be thrilled to squish right into a room with in a single day company. This a part of the interview — about preserving a home trying the identical — was very candy, too: “I rehung two photos the opposite day and my youngsters had been aghast,” she laughs. “Each image, each little bit, has stayed as an alternative over time. I spotted what some extent of stability it was for them.”
