Rapid round of answers to your shopping questions on the heels of this morning’s more themed one:
Q: New children’s books. All my top picks here. Inspired by the above to read Where the Wild Things Are tonight, but my list has more off-the-beaten-path recs.
Q: Sneakers that can be dressed up but also support a spontaneous jog when on walk. Of course I love my Daybreaks. I have also heard the very trendy Chloe ones are ultra-comfortable/cushioned.
Q: Dress to wear to a Baptism, under $200. This Tuckernuck.
Q: Outfit to wear to Disney. A Hill House Ellie with sneakers and — c’mon! — something from Stoney Clover with a Disney patch. (Your little might need this or this?). She loves a theme! (And I’ve heard you can’t forget the stroller.)
Q: Maternity photo dress. A breezy dress from Thierry Colson or Parterre.
Q: Newborn pic outfit for mom. Same as above! Another option: a Julia Amory shirtdress.
Q: Gift for sister’s 30th birthday. A set of pajamas, a fun tote bag from The Jacksons, or festive coupes.
Q: Jeans for short legs. (25″ inseam.) 26″, but these are fantastic. I would size up one size. I found my true size a tad snug. Alternately, look for pairs with raw hems and cut the hem yourself. That’s what I did with these — currently my most-worn pair of jeans!
Q: Luggage tags to differentiate our Away luggage. These!
Q: Toddler girl swimsuit with sleeves. Minnow! (More children’s swim here.)
Q: Solid colored, high quality cover-up. 9Seed.
Q: Pretty spring jacket (maybe quilted?). Antik Batik!
Q: The planters in the photo you posted on Instagram. Ballard!
P.S. Read last week’s rapid-fire WYSF post here. Do you like this format?
P.P.S. The Whole Sky Is Yours.
P.P.P.S. Love the comments on this post. SO FUN.
Just wanted to chime in on kids’ books. My kids are 2 and 4 and their favorite book is Dory Fantasmagory. It is about a mischievous and imaginative kindergartener. It is honestly hysterical to read even as a parent. It’s a ‘chapter book’ but with enough illustrations to keep little eyes interested. My kids have been really loving using a bookmark to hold our place each night. I can’t recommend it enough!
Oo, thank you for this! It looks right up my daughter’s alley. I just added one to cart. Agree on the bookmark obsession — my daughter LOVES placing it!
