Why is it that once 4th of July hits, everyone is like shoot, summer is gone?! My birthday is early August, so Iā€™m sitting over here like ā€œexcuse me maā€™amā€, can you please put away the pumpkins for a little while longer?!ā€ Anyway, we are over here soaking the warm air of summer up like itā€™s our job. In the meantime, here are some of my favorite things for the last couple of weeks.

Everything is linked in collage - just click on the image and it will direct you to the webpage. Each item is also hyperlinked below. Enjoy!

  1. The Family Game by Catherine Steadman. I love Cat Steadman! She writes great thrillers and this is her latest one. Sure, not very summery, but it is very good. I thoroughly enjoyed it.

  2. Alohas Vegan Leather Sneakers. I pre-ordered these 3 months ago and they finally came! I love how they are clean, comfy, and elevate any outfit.

  3. Simple Mills Organic Seed Crackers. I try to eat GF a lot of the time and these are my favorite crackers. They donā€™t taste ā€œtoo gluten freeā€ if you know what I mean. Simple Mills can do no wrong.

  4. Perfect Sweatshirt. I know it feels odd to recommend a sweatshirt in the height of summer, but it sometimes gets chilly at night, plus I know all of you central AC people get cold sometimes too. This runs slightly small in my opinion, but drapes wonderfully and is so comfortable. Did I mention itā€™s under $50 and I like it better than some of the more expensive sweatshirts out there?

  5. The Kingdom of Prep by Maggie Bullock. I love fashion history and J. Crew, so naturally I enjoyed this book. So much history and reliving my more preppy days.

  6. MZ Wallace Metro Sling. She can do no wrong! Iā€™ve used this a couple of times now and I love it. Iā€™ll test it out on a plane ride next week, but basically it looks chic and can hold quite a bit. A full review will come soon!

  7. Wooden Letter Magnets. I wanted to get some for the twins to play with, but didnā€™t want too many bright colors taking over our living room. These were the first ones I found that I actually liked. They are natural looking, but still fun to play with. The magnets are small, but they are embedded into the wood. Nick and I also like to leave sweet messages on the fridge for each other. Not just for the kids ;)

  8. Siete Maiz Totopos. I have always liked Siete, but I love that they have come out with more corn options. They give the flavor of a regular chip, but of course are made with Sieteā€™s high stipulations like minimal ingredients and quality products. So good!

  9. Evereden Detangling Shampoo and Conditioner. Iā€™ve gone through quite a bit of shampoos and conditioners, but didnā€™t find some I loved until Evereden. These work wonderfully on the twinsā€™ hair and have natural fragrance that doesnā€™t give me a headache.

  10. Summer Romper. I shared this romper here, but I wanted to share it here, because it is such a good piece for this summer. Dress it up or dress it down. It comes in other colors and is under $50.
