Elsie’s Favorite Buys:
Favorite Book:
“To be fair, I had like 10 favorite books. This was my favorite popular novel that MORE than lives up to the hype it receives.”
Elsie
Most Worn Item:
“I wear these boots nonstop. They are perfect with tights and dresses or jeans. They make me feel like a cool mom (not a regular mom …).”
Elsie
Favorite Coffee Table Book:
“This mini art book shows 400 paintings from one of my favorite surrealist painters. It inspires me that it’s OK to have so many different styles and phases over the decades. It’s very beautiful and weird!”
Elsie
Favorite Etsy Purchase:
“Personalized library stamp! I got this with my kids’ names for their new library (which you can see here!).”
Elsie
Best Investment in Creativity:
“I have been taking classes on Masterclass all year. I love the pacing of them and that I can fit them into my busy work/mom life. I love taking e-courses as a way to build my confidence as a creative person. Protecting your creativity is so important at all ages and phases of life.”
Elsie
Emma’s Favorite Buys:
Favorite Beauty Item:
“I use this serum at night and love it! You can also blend a little bit into your foundation for a dewy day look.”
Emma
Favorite Travel Item:
“I love this backpack for travel, but I also use it anytime I’m taking my laptop somewhere. It has a built-in USB charging port, too!”
Emma
Favorite Night Routine Purchase:
“I put this lip mask on every night before bed, and it’s especially great in the winter.”
Emma
Favorite Etsy Purchase:
“I wear this stackable ring everyday—it’s customized with my son’s name.”
Emma
Favorite Home Item:
“We have four of these light fixtures throughout our new home.”
