Big Cat Energy Just Entered My Closet

This week I had planned to share a roundup of some of my favorite summer items from past catalogs, and I'm still bringing that to you, just next week's inbox instead of this one :)

Instead, with summer in full swing, I've decided to share the 5 items I picked up this week!

YSL LOVESHINE PLUMPING LIP OIL GLOSS

If you know me, you know I am a sucker for fancy lip gloss. I'm currently obsessed with this one! Shade 3 Mellow Mallow is the perfect natural lip color enhancer, with just a touch of plumping to know it's there but not to burn.

ROSIE ASSOULIN X TARGET COLLAB

I always check out the Target collabs. Maybe it's my obsession with all things limited edition, but I enjoy learning about the different designers (if they're new to me) and seeing their designs. This top from the current collection with Rosie Assoulin is fantastic. It has structure but is soft, feels classic and trendy at the same time, and is under $40. It runs TTS and I took a medium. You'll definitely see this one on me soon.

BIG CAT ENERGY

I've been on the hunt for a robe that feels luxe but will also hold up when I do my makeup, and this one checks both boxes! The silk fabric has that substantial, spa-like weight to it and drapes beautifully, while the bold cheetah print brings some big cat energy to your morning routine.  It's the kind of piece that makes a great gift, or a great excuse to treat yourself.

THE PERFECT CLUTCH

This summer I've been on a handbag kick, updating a lot of my bags and rounding out my collection. Being an autumn palette and a lover of the clutch bag for day or night, it's crazy but I actually didn't have a brown clutch. I was gifted this one and it's got me all excited to enter fall! I love the croc embossing, and you can add a strap to make it a crossbody, making it the perfect bag for a trip!

BRAIDED TOP HANDLE MULBERRY HANDBAG

And if we're talking about handbags, this one cannot go unnoticed! That handle! I love a top handle bag, and this one is another versatile piece. Its pebbled leather makes it durable and resistant to wear and tear, and the hardware is understated but chunky in the best way. I can't wait to start using this one too!

Next week, get ready for a full roundup of my favorite summer pieces from past catalogs, so keep an eye on your inbox! Enjoy the sunshine this weekend, and think of something you're grateful for :)
