ODDS & ENDS
I continue to use and love the Choose app, which hosts limited time sample sales from under-the-radar international brands and vintage dealers. I’ve gotten some amazing pieces, like the above earrings, button-down top, and a bunch of new activewear, including the track shorts (so great). Everything on the app is current collection but some of it is more than 50% off (sales last just a few days, so items go fast, but new sales by different brands start every day). Also: free shipping and free returns! You can use the code VCHAMLEE and get $20 off your first order.
I’ve been really into the makeup products by Soshe, which bills itself as “skincare infused” — meaning the products are gentle enough that they won’t clog your pores. The blush is highly pigmented, goes on creamy but lasts like a powder, which I love (I have every shade!) I also use their lip liner (my go-to shade is desert rose) and tinted lip treatment, which I recently brought on a girls’ trip and forced my friends to try.
My OB-GYN recommended I take a magnesium supplement every day to deal with hormonal headaches. So I started taking this supplement powder with water every night, about an hour before bed. It’s not the easiest thing to swallow (I just gulp it) but it has magnesium plus other minerals to aid in exercise recovery and digestion.
If you’re looking for a Father’s Day gift, one of my faves DAR Proyectos has created a quiz to help you figure out your “puzzle personality.” Take the quiz, or just buy one of their very aesthetic stone puzzles.
What can I say? I cannot resist a tassel. The gold tassel necklace is otw to ME.
I'm a sucker for Brutalist pieces! Check out Robert A. Larin (or Robert Larin), Guy Vidal and Raphael of Canada - the Canadian Brutalists of the 1970s were AMAZING (I collect Larin and have a Raphael ring/necklace set). Larin only hired deaf people so that their hearing wouldn't be damaged by the forges.
Thanks so much for this wonderful round-up of eye-candy, Virginia!
