August Inspiration
What’s Inspiring Us This Month
Edgy florals, 90s-adjacent fashion, NEUTRALS, and a few more things.
Happy back-to-school season, friends!
We’re currently reminiscing on the days when a pristine Crayola 64-pack, with the built-in sharpener, felt like the height of luxury. Somebody please invent such a candle—we’ll be first in line.
Each month we’ll include a few random things our team is loving, just for fun. This is Maddie's current list:

Maddie's Current Favorites: —
My desire to be a healthy morning smoothie girl and my inability to prepare anything in the morning that doesn’t come prepackaged didn’t previously mix well. But these contain all the pre-portioned ingredients for a yummy little breakfast drink that wakes me up and doesn’t feel too heavy.
This is my tiny daily reward for powering through the early afternoon sleepies and making it to 3 pm.
Soooo soothing on my face that is always at least mildly sunburned during the summer. Plus, it goes on clear, so is a little less alarming for my husband to happen upon than a sheet or clay mask. ;)
Known for educating you on all the things that entertain, but do not matter, the Popcast is the lighthearted and truly hilarious departure from everyday heaviness we could all use sometimes. And the hosts are local to Birmingham!
Going to class means 50 minutes to worry only about me, listen to my favorite music on full blast, generate some endorphins alongside dear friends, and leave feeling rejuvenated and ready for the rest of the day! I’m obsessed.
Plus, a few more notable updates since we last talked—
Sydney, our design intern, said yes to her now fiancé, Matt! Anna Cate and her husband, Jeremy, prepped for the arrival of their baby girl with a beautiful baby shower. And my husband, Philip, and I celebrated our fifth anniversary.
As you jump into a new fall calendar, whatever that may hold for you, we wish for you opportunities to make new friends, love on your old friends, and find moments for good rest.
