Weekly Wrap-up

img_3499

Yesterday I spent some well needed time poolside to relax and unwind. I went outside, soaked up the sun, and sipped an Arnold Palmer. It was a nice way to conclude a week full of cooking, blogging, and a great chat with Professional Lifestyle Organizer Amy Suddleson. I’m excited to share what I learned from Amy with all of you next week. 

Since the weather has warmed up in LA I was finally able to wear my Kule shirt dress (look for less here), and my Banjanan Flora dress (now on sale along with these two Juliet Dunn and Lemlem dresses). I realized my J. Crew swimsuits from last season could use an update, and I’m going to take advantage of J Crew’s 30% off sale. I recently replaced my straw hat in the above picture (never enough shade). While lounging poolside, I browsed & Other Stories and found a Jenni Kayne look for less cotton cardigan along with this white eyelet mini, chainlink pearl necklace, and organic cotton tank. 

That’s a wrap for the week! Hope everyone has a great weekend. I’m getting lots of texts and DM’s about recipes you’ve been cooking from my blog. Don’t forget to tag me on Instagram @juleseebyjuliewoolenberg.

XOXO

Wrap-up

Anything that takes me from morning to night is a GO during quarantine! Case in point this quilted Ulla Johnson jacket. I have been wearing a similar quilted version from Ellies & Ivy that I got on my trip to Copenhagen last year. Some more affordable options include this, this, and this by Natalie Martin. For a belted utility look try this & Other stories or this H&M jacket.

Faux Sure

I say Faux Sure when it comes to faux leather jeans. They are comfortable, can be dressed up or down, and are more affordable then the real ones. The Atlantic Pacific x Halogen ones I wore over the weekend are nearly sold out but these Mother Insider Crop’s (they also come in a skinny leg) are a great alternative. I wore mine with an Everlane cashmere tee (also love this pearl embellished one & Other Stories), Laura Lombardi necklace, H&M Blazer (also like this corduroy blazer & Other Stories), and leopard Loeffler Randall Sylvana heels.
