Spotted Statements

Earrings are a pixie cut’s best friend, and for years, Sela Designs has consistently churned out my very favorites – from stunning statements to simple studs, and everything between. Better than looking 100% lovely 100% of the time? 100% of all profits are donated straight to charity. Now that’s pretty with a purpose. To Buy:

A Fancy Fanny

Finally, the pack is back – albeit far lovelier than the nylon counterpart of yesteryear. While the contents may differ (sadly, I’m no longer carting Dr. Pepper Bonne Bell Lipsmackers to King’s Island), it turns out a gal’s need for a fanny pack never really does go out of style. This version – a forever

And yet, our front porch has been neglected for years. Opting instead to

The Perfect Tee

Life with young kids means, for me, tees are in heavy rotation. A quick swipe of the hem for nursing, a shirttail handy for wiping a small boy’s tears after a bicycle fall. Something light and comfy; something I won’t fret over when the inevitable coffee spills down my front, or the banana pancake flips

Buttoned Up

The perfect white button-up is surprisingly complicated to find, and this one is it. Non-bunching? Uh-huh. Knot-able? You betcha. Perfectly lightweight, can-definitely-be-tucked, incredibly crisp? Check, check, check. Perhaps best of all, it’s made ethically, creating job opportunities for at-risk women living in the slums of New Delhi – restoring hope, dignity, and freedom that creates
