This, That, and the Other: Wrinkle Release, Perfect Flats, + Glow Drops.

The Fashion Magpie Crease Release The Laundress

Getting back into the swing of things after a long holiday weekend can be rough.  Below — some pretty lil thangs to ease you into the work week…

Pick No. 1: Wrinkle Release.

I ordered — and love — my upgraded handheld steamer (I also own a Rowenta iron and it has changed my life), but my mom told me recently that when she’s in a bind, she uses Crease Release by the Laundress.  Only a few days later, the organization experts behind Imagine It Done recommended Cold Iron’s wrinkle release solution.  I think I’ll give them both a whirl!

 

Pick No. 2: Cecilie Bahnsen.

OMG OMG — I am head over heels for the dramatic shapes of designer Cecilie Bahnsen.  I’d love this velvet bow-shouldered beauty for holiday parties (imagine with trim-cut cigarette pants!) or this embellished sheer peplum confection.

Pick No. 3: DVF White Flats.

White boots were A Thing this past season, and while I couldn’t bring myself to invest in that particular trend (too practical — as a New Yorker, I felt like I was always traipsing through muddy slush!), I am in love with white shoes for summer.  These smart, pointed-toe slingbacks are PERFECTION.  They look like they might be Celine or Jil Sander, but they’re $228!

 

Pick No. 4: Dr. Barbara Sturm Glow Drops.

I referenced this in passing in a recent post, but has anyone used the line Dr. Sturm before?  I’m especially intrigued by these glow drops, which purport to “transform and revitalize tired, dull skin and restore its radiance.”  The very-in-the-know blogger Bradley Agather uses a bunch of Sturm’s products, so I’m officially intrigued.

 

Pick No. 5: Apiece Apart Sweater.

How funky-perfect is this Apiece Apart sweater, now on sale in Goop’s incredible sale section?!  (This and this are also hanging out in my cart.)

Pick No. 6: Wide-Brim Hat.

I love this fringe-edged J. Crew hat — and what a great price, if you can’t quite pony up for the ultimate.  (Also love this top from J. Crew’s new arrivals.)

Pick No. 7: The Heart Pouch.

How fun are these heart-print pouches?  They would make such a darling gift — a gal can never have enough pouches.  (Or, at least this gal can’t.)

Pick No. 8: The Gingham Bucket Bag.

This happy gingham bag is such a fun punchy accent piece for your summer wardrobe — and the shape is so on point RN.

Pick No. 9: The White Maxi.

This maxi is nothing short of stunning.  Would make an elegant dress for a bride-to-be…or a married woman like myself.  HA!

Pick No. 10: The Bow Sandal.

These make me so happy!  I like the idea of wearing them with my favorite joveralls and a frilly white blouse.
