11 Things

A random list from the week.

This past week was a doozy with lots of twists and turns, making it feel like the week would never end! Here are a few things I found along the way.

1. Butter Yellow. Pale Yellow. Bright Yellow. I love the yellow trend happening at the moment. While I personally think brunettes have an easier time wearing yellow, I love a pop of this trending color with any outfit.

   

   Bikini, Tote, Flip Flips, Pants, Sweatshirt, Handbag, Heels

2. Save your face: I have been wearing this sun hat and sunscreen on repeat.

   

3. A major new fave for white denim jeans. I also have them in this wash and am obsessed.

   

   The Lemon Twist Sneak

4. I am so sick of my Oura ring telling me it’s low on battery. I just got this on-the-go charging case, which is just what I was looking for.

5. I had jury duty this week and had some time on my hands, so this is what I wore (and yes, these are the sweatpant jeans and I kind of love them). And I love a great Clare V Bateau tote to throw a bunch of stuff in - who knows how long they will make you wait at jury duty. Always come prepared!

   

   Oversized Car Coat, Black Tee, Tote, Socks (with a little green for St. Pattys Day), Sneaks, “Sweatpants” ;)

6. PUSHING PEPTIDES! I need to learn more about the enthusiasm and phenomenon around peptides. It’s all a bit overwhelming, so I am jumping in here with this Town & Country article, which helps break it all down.

   

7. I love sipping my coffee from this oversized Mother mug with my favorite lap tray. We have just one left in magenta (who wants it?!) Both of these are great Mother’s Day gift ideas.

   

8. I had fun making a personal styling board for a friend looking for outfits for a work event next month. Send us a note at info@unionandmainsf.com, and we can make a Bespoke List just for you!

   

9. March Madness, Jenny and I have a deep love for hoops. We might even go as far as to say we both fancied ourselves as quite good ballers way, way back in the day. We thought it would be fun to start our own Union and Main March Madness group. Join us here to pick your final games.

10. This crazy warm weather we have in SF right now is making me realize I need more casual dresses. I ended up getting this dress in both colors. I think the fit is flattering, and I love the weight of the fabric and how it moves.

11. I am waiting for my replenishment order from Eighth Day to arrive. But while I am out of certain serums, I tried two of Counter’s hydrating and advanced super serums along with their cushion cream, and I have to say - I am impressed! The price is right, and I truly love the way it makes my skin feel. I also can’t leave the house without this new under-eye favorite and, of course, YSE Beauty’s skin glow. As for my splurge, it was my birthday recently, and I treated myself to an upgrade in my LED mask routine. I had been using my old one for six years, and while I do love that one, I think the technology has improved over the years, and this one is my new friend. I am easing into using it, and its varying times and levels, but I can already tell it’s working, and I am loving it.

I lied…one more…new MANGO must-haves!
