New month and new Lust-Have List! July is the first official month of the second half of the year, which means we are half way finish with 2016. Crazy talk, I tell ya! Still, like the beginning of every new month, I get excited for all the upcoming things planned for the month. In my circle of family and friends, from July 9-21, I know someone who has a birthday EACH DAY. Needless to say, I have a couple of birthday dinners and festivities penciled in my planner for the next upcoming weeks. FYI, for gifts, I give gift cards or wine. Pick your poison.

Here’s to a great month full of success, health, and happiness.

LUST-HAVE LIST: July 2016

• Supergoop Defense Refresh Setting Mist – I have a few skincare and beauty products that are on my radar to try and this one from Supergoop is currently at the top. Not only is this a setting spray for your make-up, but it also controls the oil on your face AND refreshes your sun protection with an SPF 50. This is definitely a bag staple.
• KAANA Salinas Sneakers – A soft metallic gold sneaker with matte tan toe cap is a perfect option to add a casual twist to frilly summer dress. Actually, these sneakers will work for you all year round.
• Floral Maxi Dress – This dress is giving me heavy 90s retro vibes and I’m all into it. What I love that you can pair this dress on it’s own or even as a cute cover-up or pair it with some almost inappropriately short shorts. Options are key!
• Tequila Crossbody Bag – Every now and then I appreciate a good cheeky statement bag and this crossbody bag by SkinnyDip is definitely one of those bags. Totally work for summer parties and will definitely get you some attention.
• Shoe Dog: A Memoir – I recently added this memoir from the creator of Nike to my summer reading list, because I love reading about the early days of mega companies and Nike is one of those companies.
