Raise your hand if you’re TEAM HOUSE DRESS! 🙋 Raise your hand if you’re TEAM HOUSE DRESS! 🙋🏻‍♀️ Ok good, then you’ll love @thesleepshirt. The house dress so comfy, you can sleep in it…literally! 🛌 Are you familiar with house dresses? They’re the dresses I live in – comfy, cute dresses that are easy to wear – you just toss ‘em on and you’re all set to lounge, work from home or go out and about. The key is they are so comfy, you can wear them at home. Hence the term “house dress.” I live for a good house dress so I’m excited to team up with + introduce you to a new-to-me brand @thesleepshirt. 💙 The Sleep Shirt started as a sleepwear brand, so they have comfort down to a tee. But they’ve recently expanded into a resort wear brand (my favorite – hello caftans!). 🦩 I’m wearing the Fluo Pink Striped Sleep Shirt, which you can wear 4 ways: 1) As a Nightshirt 🛌 2) As a Cover-Up 🏝 3) As a Dress 👗 4) As a Shirt 👚 (leave the last few buttons unbuttoned & tie the ends together... will be cute to top with a cashmere sweater/cardigan in cooler weather too.) 🍁 It’s so light and airy, perfect for summer + Palm Springs! 🦩 🌴 ☀️ Are you team house dress too? 👗 LINK IN MY BIO + STORIES to shop the look + see more pics & faves! #mysleepshirt #thesleepshirt 📷 @fredbaby13 . . . http://liketk.it/2Rutk . . . #housedress #palmspringsstyle #stripeddress #verytandc #atomicranch #midmod
Join me on a wellness challenge: Tell me one good Join me on a wellness challenge: Tell me one good thing! ⠀⠀ 💛 In an effort to focus on the positive, let’s rewire our brains for good! ⠀⠀ 💛 We have a tendency to start conversations over something negative that we can commiserate about. And while there is likely some biological/sociological reason (bonding, relating, venting), I want to make more of an effort to focus on the positive. So I’m hoping you might join me in this challenge. ⠀⠀ 💛 Whenever you start a conversation, be it in person or on the phone, ask the person to tell you one good thing. And be ready to share one good thing too. It’s a great small practice to rewire your brain towards the positive. ⠀⠀ 👆🏼LINK IN BIO for my one good thing.

How are YOU? Have you had any small moments of joy How are YOU? Have you had any small moments of joy that lifted your spirits lately? I’d LOVE to hear in the comments! The other day I had a nice long FaceTime catch-up with my BFF Melissa, whose Austin living room I designed earlier this year (featured here in this pic – the Briar Sleeper Sectional is by @joybird). 🛋 It made me so happy to see her all glowy and happy in her space (which she calls “The Boutique Hotel”) & spent nearly 2 hours on the phone laughing over the silliest things, like googling the correct pronunciation of “bougainvillea” and then having Google Translate say it to us in 50 different languages, with us trying to repeat it (we could use some work, haha!). Ah, it felt SO good to laugh that much. 🌺🌺🌺 Speaking of feeling good, she always says the fabric on this sofa feels super good against freshly shaved legs. Haha. I totally know what she means. Blue velvet, if you please… 💃🏻 Have a good one, friends xo! 😚 p.s.

BLACK LIVES MATTER (continued in comments & Storie BLACK LIVES MATTER (continued in comments & Stories). I know most of you come here for happy, colorful, uplifting posts. And I love to deliver that. But I hope you will take the time to read this too. It’s important that we acknowledge the trauma occurring right now, and that has been occurring for so long. I like to live in my bubble. And it’s especially easy to do in Palm Springs. I typically avoid the news or anything unpleasant for my own mental well-being and because I believe that we have to take responsibility for what we ingest. And while that’s worked pretty well for me in life, I recognize that is 1000% privilege. A lot of people have problems with the P word – privilege. I used to be one of them. Many bristle at it. “I didn’t grow up with money.” “I had nothing.” “I pulled myself up on my own with hard work.” But that isn’t all that privilege is. That couldn’t be more crystal clear now. Privilege is the ability to leave your home and not feel afraid and like you have a target on your back (or even BE in your home and feel like you have a target on your back). If you’d rather call it having a leg up, fine. Semantics is NOT the issue. But there was a short video I reposted to my Stories yesterday of Jane Elliot asking a group (I believe she was a reverend and she was addressing a room full of white people). She asked a simple question: “Please stand up if you’d like to be treated like a black person in America.” As you might imagine, NO ONE stood up. And I’d be surprised if anyone would stand up right now. I used to think that if I participated in a protest that wasn’t about “my group” so to speak, it would look like I wasn’t sincere, or like I was co-opting someone else’s struggle and pain. Like it wouldn’t be authentic. Like seeing men at a womens march. But that is 1000% WRONG. The easiest way for me to understand that was to think about the example of sexual assault. Sexual assault is NOT a womens issue. Yes, they/we are the victims or it, but it is 1000% a mens problem. THEY should bear the burden of fixing it. Women aren’t perpetrating it. MEN need to fix it. {continued in comments}👇🏻👇🏼👇🏿
