20 Things I Loved in June

Back by popular demand—welcome to my June favorites! You all have been loving this series (check out last month’s favorites if you missed it!) so I’m bringing it back for another round.

June’s list has a bit a theme: getting back to me. A mix of wellness, routines, home updates, always some baby magic, and of course, no roundup would be complete without some shopping. I’m finally feeling like things are back to “normal”, so this summer is all about taking a breath and finding my groove again. Here are all the things that have been making that easier, and more fun, this month.

  1. My fitness journey is still going strong, and I recently got a weighted vest to level up my daily walks. My trainer suggested starting with an 8-pound one, and it’s perfect. Just enough to get more out of it, but not so heavy that it slows me down.

  2. I had lunch with nutritionist Mia Rigden (more on that soon), and she introduced me to Ella’s Flats. I’m obsessed. The everything flavor is my favorite and pairs perfectly with my Good Culture cottage cheese! The ultimate snack.

  3. Earlybird CBD could honestly make my “20 Things” list every single month. My brain runs pretty active, especially at night, and sometimes I need a little help slowing it down. These gummies take the edge off and help me sleep without making me feel groggy the next day. I usually start with half and occasionally take a full one. Watermelon is my absolute favorite. Each one has about 12.5mg of CBD and 2.5mg of natural THC. In my experience, you don’t feel high, just totally relaxed. Like you and your bed have become one. MALLY20 for 20% off at checkout. Highly recommend!

  1. You know I struggle with dark under eyes, and this color corrector from Tarte has changed everything. I can wear it alone for instantly brighter under eyes or layer it under my favorite concealer when I want more coverage. I have the color light medium.

  2. I’ve also been loving YSE Beauty’s Skin Glow. It’s a glowy primer with SPF 30, but lately I’ve been wearing it on its own with a little of the Tarte undereye corrector and my go-to brown mascara. Simple and fresh.

  3. I don’t shop in person much anymore, but I stopped into Henry Lehr in Sag Harbor and fell in love with the Winslow Jean from Citizens. They look like vintage Levi’s. Loose in all the right places, great length, I got them in my smaller size. I just ordered the lighter wash too. So summery.

  1. The beets and berries smoothie from Joe and the Juice tastes like a strawberry milkshake, has over 20 grams of protein, and is packed with all the good stuff. Smoothies and summer just go together and I just can’t stop with this one.

  2. On the home front, it’s been so exciting to see our space slowly come together. We’re working with Alex Yeske, and with every new delivery, it starts to feel more and more like ours. It makes me so happy to feel at home again. Sharing a couple sneak peeks below.

  1. Is anyone else watching Love Island USA? We’re not fully caught up, but this season has been wildly entertaining.

  1. Having a one-year-old is the absolute best. I know I’ll feel this way about every stage, but I’ve really been trying to soak up this summer with Shep. Watching him come into his own is the sweetest thing ever. He smiles with his whole freakin’ face and it shatters me into a million little pieces every time.

  1. We went to a wedding on the North Fork last weekend, and it was such a fun excuse to get dressed up. I bought a new dress, shoes, and accessories and it felt good to mix it up from my usual jeans and a tee. If you’ve got a summer wedding, this dress is also stunning. So is this one. And this one too.
