CABANA LIFE

Did you know May is National Skin Cancer Awareness Month? If you’ve been following along for a while, you’ve likely heard about our enthusiasm for wearing sunscreen everyday, and now we’re thrilled to tell you all about Cabana Life and their chic resort wear that takes sun safety to the next level! All of Cabana Life’s clothing and swimsuits are made with special UPF 50+ fabrics that help protect the skin from burning and accelerated aging in the sun. Founded by skin cancer survivor Melissa and her bestie Alyssa, their brand is on a mission to make sun protective clothing fun, so you don’t have to choose between fashion or function! Be sure to browse our favorite styles below!

UNDER THE CANOPY

What’s better than changing into a a pair of cozy pjs and slipping into a bed freshly made with crisp sheets? As far as we know, that feeling is hard to compete with, and exactly why we adore Under the Canopy’s unfussy approach to luxury linens! Under the Canopy also takes a serious stance on sustainability, using only organic materials and non-toxic dyes…meaning their products are easy on both your home and the environment! They’re committed to making high quality textiles that are designed to last so you can love them longer. From bedroom, to bathroom, to wardrobe, there are so many super soft categories to browse…and you can find our picks in the gallery below!

COCOBELLE

Sandal season is back and we couldn’t be happier about it! Cocobelle is such a great source for classic summer footwear that is ethically handmade in Italy. We just can’t resist a strappy tan leather style like the pair pictured above (they go with absolutely everything!), but they have so many other fun designs to explore as well (don’t miss these gold slides!). Founders Lucy Peglar and Ignacio Bussy met while surfing in Indonesia, and their shared love for travel still inspires the brand’s getaway-ready aesthetic today! In addition to sandals, Cocobelle also designs a charming range of raffia handbags and beaded belts…click through the slider below to see our sunny Cocobelle picks!

JOY CREATIVE SHOP

We just can’t resist adding to our collection of colorful stationery, and Joy Creative Shop’s playful designs are both practical and pretty! In addition to incorporating some of our favorite colors, graphic motifs and monogramming options, they’ve also developed a collection of organization papers that are truly game-changing! Imagine the messy scrawls of your everyday to-do list elevated into a stylish hour-by-hour schedule or color-happy visualization of your goals for the week! We’re loving the grocery list + meal planning notepad pictured above, and can’t wait to explore more of their clever products! See the gallery below for the color-happy picks that caught our eye!
