In The Moment: Things I Love on May 10, 2018

May 9, 2018 LIFESTYLE

Alright, y’all, warm weather in Chicago has officially arrived! That means lots of patio time and running on the lake. It’s my happy time. In fact, I’m sitting on my patio with some fruit-infused water as I type. Without further ado, here are the things I love this week …

In The Moment: Things I Love on May 10, 2018

Things I Love May 10 Graphic for Bumble and Bustle

1. Caboodles | 2. Melodramatic Purple | 3. Citronella Candles | 4. Yumble | 5. Towne9 Tote Bags

Caboodles

I love anything that kicks it back to the 90s and these definitely fit the bill. Does anyone else remember the joy of getting a new Caboodle and filling it with junk … cough, I mean, important belongings? I love these “retro” designs at Urban Outfitters!

Melodramatic Purple

Recently, The Cut came out with an article dubbing the color lavender as “Melodramatic Purple” – a nod to Lorde’s dress at the VMAs. I’m thinking this name probably won’t catch on, but I do love the color and that it’s so in right now. A few ways you can get in on the melodramatic purple trend … shoes, casual wear, and jewels!

Citronella Candles

Did I mention patio season? Well, I love a good outdoor citronella candle, but they can get a bit much. My awesome Instagram friend Chelsea from Bridge Nine Candle Co. makes hers with a hint of lime to tone it down a bit, and they’re perfection. I got mine at the end of the season last year, so it’s still going strong to help me kick off Spring!

Yumble

Okay, this may be my most ridiculous move in a long time. I just got started on a new meal service … for kids. Yes, I’m a soon-to-be 31 year old that will be eating meals like “taco-rific” and “finger lickin’ chicken fingers.” But, hear me out … they’re a great portion size for dieting, mostly healthy and balanced meals, and they’re less expensive than other meal service options – because kids.

Towne 9 Tote Bags

Along with patio season comes farmer’s market season. Last week was opening day, and you bet your ass I was up at the crack of dawn to grab a tea and walk through the stands. I have the cutest market bag I bought last year that reads “the entire cat population is my best friend.” While that design is no longer available, Towne9 has tons of other options. My fav: “hakuna mimosas.” Most of their bags are priced differently, but that one is under $10 INCLUDING shipping!
