August felt like a bit of everything — long summer days, a road trip with the kids, and starting to shift into back-to-school routines. We spent plenty of time outside, soaking in the last weeks of summer, but I also found myself craving those little comforts and easy pieces that make everyday life smoother. A few of these finds ended up being staples on our recent trips, while others are simple swaps or small updates that have made the home feel a little fresher. Here’s everything I bought and loved this month:
A crisp short sleeve blouse– the kind of polished basic that looks just as good with denim as it does tucked into a skirt. And this cut is perfect.
Green Mary Jane Flats – I couldn’t resist this classic style in a bold green. They instantly make even a simple outfit more fun.
A classic button down – Oversized, cotton, and easy to wear — I’ve been throwing it on with jeans and sandals.. Don’t forget the monogram!
Baby Chair – A practical buy that turned into a road trip essential. It gave me a safe spot to put the baby down, and it folds easily to take along.
Green Cardigan – A lightweight layer in the prettiest shade of green — I’ve been reaching for it on cooler evenings.
A new travel tote– Structured but soft, with that quilted texture I love. It makes everyday outfits feel pulled together. This will be my fall carry on tote!
BaubleBar Necklace – A playful, pop of color that adds personality to my basics (and the price point makes it even better).
A new to me road trip book!– I grabbed this for our road trip and it was such a hit. The kids laughed through every page — it turned long drives into family fun.
Aluminum-Free Deodorant – A clean deodorant that actually works — no irritation, no harsh ingredients, and it kept me fresh all day.
Gluten Free seed crackers– A crunchy, seed-based cracker that’s been my go-to snack. Tasty, healthy, and perfect with hummus. My current healthy snack obsession!
Subtle fun touch for our home – I’ve been intrigued by these rechargeable lamps for far too long and finally ordered!
Moisturizing Face Balm – Lightweight, nongreasy, and hydrating — exactly what I wanted in a daily balm. I use it morning and night!
Just placed my First Grove Order in August. They have all the brands I love for our home. Favorites so far: their eco-friendly toilet paper, plastic-free floss, these containers I use for leftovers and snacks on the go.
