Monday Musings
Evereve summer pieces we love, Barcelona travel outfits, two favorite tanning options, Anthropologie dresses and a Nordstrom sale preview and “how-to”…
This past week Allison was in Barcelona and fell in love with the city. Get ready for the full travel guide: where she stayed, ate, what she did and wore. That will be dropping in the next couple of days. Gretchen and Laura held down the GTI fort back in the States. Gretchen stayed up at her house in the mountains for a few extra days to recharge. Her three boys are going in different directions with her oldest working, middle wrapping up summer school and the youngest heading to camp with his cousins (Laura’s son and daughter). Laura prepped both of her kids for sleep away camp and herself for a trip to Italy with her husband Andrew. They are sneaking away for the first time while the kids are covered. That’s great planning! As always, the trying doesn’t stop. In case you missed, here’s the week in a glance.
We can’t think of a time where we haven’t found something or mostly many things we love from Evereve. These three outfits speak to our summer style and we’ve been wearing them non-stop already. Shop them here.
It was linen, easy dresses, wide legged pants, the most comfortable strappy sandals and sneakers that felt like walking on clouds for Allison exploring in Barcelona. This black purse was her favorite to carry. She almost passed on it and is so thankful she didn’t. It was the perfect size and comfortable, soft leather. She wore her packable Janessa Leone hat almost every day. All Barcelona looks are linked here.
We love Loving Tan for a great at-home tan. Recently, we’ve been back on the Jergens train for a daily tan that builds gradually yet effectively. We love both options depending on what we’re going for. Watch here for Gretchen’s conversation explaining the two.
We each found two dresses we love for a total of 6 excellent dresses to wear now. Some will even take you into fall and beyond. Shop them here. If you’re reading this on June 30th, there’s still time to save 20% with our code “TRYIT20”.
COMING UP…
Nordstrom Anniversary Sale
We love a good sale, always, and the Nordstrom Anniversary sale is one of the best. It can be a bit confusing if you don’t know your particular place and date in the sale. We dedicated a recent Substack highlighting how to shop the sale and what brands we’ll be snagging here.
Amazon Prime Day July 8-11
We’ve got you covered with this sale too! Amazon can be overwhelming with so many choices that aren’t always worth it. We’ll be sharing the GTI picks that are worth it. Stay tuned.
