The Edition VI

May 17

Hello, lovely readers! Welcome to my latest edition of The Edition, where I share my recent adventures, new purchases, and must-have beauty finds—all curated just for you.

Spring has been a whirlwind of travels and treats, and I’ve been adding some fabulous pieces to my collection. Whether you’re looking to invest in timeless staples or indulge in a fun splurge, I’ve got you covered. I’ve curated a list of my current and new beauty favorites—all priced under $200. Trust me, these finds are worth every penny!

For those of you who love a good bargain, I’ve uncovered some fabulous Amazon treasures perfect for pool season. From stylish accessories to skincare must-haves, these picks will keep you looking chic without breaking the bank. Let’s dive into what’s in my pool bag—because summer is upon us!

I’m a firm believer in protecting my skin, especially during sunny days! I love any product with SPF, and I’ve rounded up my favorites to keep you protected and glowing. Think lightweight sunscreens, SPF-infused makeup, and after-sun hydration—perfect for poolside lounging.

This season, my go-to activity has been listening to audiobooks. I need something to keep my mind engaged while styling for work, so I’ve been obsessed with mystery thrillers. I recently had the incredible opportunity to attend the Taste Maker Travel Trip in Nantucket with 25 other creators, where I met the renowned author Elin Hilderbrand. I’ve downloaded one of her audiobooks and am already hooked—perfect for summer days and long drives.

This stunning brown and white ensemble is by Colombian designer Andrés Otálora, known for his effortlessly elegant silhouettes and vibrant, Latin American-inspired aesthetic.

First up, I revisited Palm Beach in March to celebrate my daughter’s ninth birthday. It’s always such a special place for us, and this trip was no exception. My sister Megan and her daughter—who’s also nine—came along, making it even more memorable. We stayed at the charming Palm House again, indulging in the perfect mix of beach days, cute activities, and exploring the adorable shops around town.

My daughter absolutely adored every moment—building sandcastles, collecting seashells, and simply soaking up the sunshine. Palm Beach has a timeless charm that keeps drawing us back, and I can already tell we’ll be returning soon, perhaps after our trip to Turks or once summer is in full swing.

After Palm Beach, I headed to South Caicos for the grand opening of Salterra Resort in Turks and Caicos. Let me just say—it’s absolutely incredible. The resort is stunning, the views are breathtaking, and the vibe is pure paradise. I’ll be sharing all the details and behind-the-scenes stories in a full post coming live on Sunday the 18th—so make sure to check back then! Trust me, you’ll want to hear about the luxurious accommodations, the amazing activities, and all the fun we had during our stay. I have a hotel code if you want to book a stay at Salterra.

Just five days after arriving in Turks, I made a whirlwind trip to Nantucket. This was a quick turnaround, and honestly, I don’t usually schedule back-to-back trips like this. However, the delay of the resort opening in Turks meant I had the perfect opportunity to explore somewhere new—and I’m so glad I did!

Nantucket stole my heart. I attended the Taste Maker Travel Series with about 25 other creators, where we celebrated community, creativity, and all things travel. It was an incredible experience—full of inspiring conversations, beautiful scenery, and new friendships. I’ll be sharing more about my Nantucket adventures soon, so stay tuned!

Thanks for following along on my latest travels! I’m excited to share more stories, tips, and discoveries with you in the coming weeks. Until then, happy exploring!
