After three decades of experimenting with self-tanners (and varying levels of streakiness), I just discovered a favorite: Tan Towels. You wipe them over your face and body for a warm, natural, sunkissed glow, like you spent the day at the beach — and miraculously you don’t look at all orange.
How to give kids a 1970s summer, including playing outside all day and watching a boatload of TV.
10 times rotisserie chicken gets you halfway to dinner. Because it’s summer, and it’s so nice to stay outside until the last possible second.
In past summers, I’ve gone hands-free (with keys and $20 in a pocket), but the catch is that I can’t bring along a lipstick or sunglasses or book. So, I recently got this circle bag and it has become a beloved sidekick. How cute is the shape?
Happy summer! It’s really happening! xoxo
