Happy Hour

Can you link the FP tanks you love Heather? Are they lined/have a shelf bra?

Love my Free People crop! I have it in most colors and I wear one every single day if I’m working out or not! The only workout I won’t wear them is for a run because I am larger chested and it does not have a built in bra. However, it is a ribbed material and very thick so I wear them under tanks all the time as my “bra.” I have the long line version (goes below your belly button) and cropped version (that hits right above your belly button). I love both equally.. just preference on how “cropped” you want it!

What is your favorite under eye concealer? I usually use the Tarte share tape but just ran out and wondering if I should try something new?

I (Heather) use Laura Mercier because I love her entire line of makeup, it doesn’t clump up on me, and it’s just a quality brand and product. I’ve used it for over a year and just replenished an empty bottle!

My daughter is ready for a booster seat. Which one do you use for your older kids?

I (Heather) have two brands.. Jackson uses this one and Cameron uses this one. I prefer boosters with backs but neither of these are four point harness.. just the seat belt, which is age and weight appropriate for my boys. I have this version for extra kids in the car or short jaunts around town. But they are usually in the boosters with backs as they are more comfortable (especially if they fall asleep).

OK- if tie dye sweatshirts are out can you link some cute light weight pullovers for spring/summer?

LOL I mean if tie dye is still your thing, rock it girlfriend. But I just think trends are moving to a bit more neutral tones like these:

I love your guys’ baseball hats. Can you link you LA and NY hats?

Thank you! A lot of the ones we have are sold out right now because #baseballseason but here are a few versions of the ones we love:

Alix- are you planning to use a diaper bag or just an insert in a purse?

I got this diaper backpack and also plan to use this insert in other purses as needed.

I want a necklace/bracelet with my kids names or initials on it for Mother’s Day. Can you link some inspo I can pass along to my husband 😉

These letter necklaces are the best..pricey but great quality. For a bracelet with kids name or initials, Erica Woolston makes the cutest and good quality as well.

I’m going to Palm Springs in June with my girlfriends.. what do I need to pack?!

Bathing suits, flowy dresses (go with color because you’re on vacation!) and cover ups, sandals, sunglasses and shorts! You need nothing tight or constricting because Palm Springs in June is hot hot hot! Oh and hats and SPF galore. Have fun!

I’m graduating law school in a month!! I’ve been studying so much that I am at a loss for what dress I should wear for my graduation photos. Could you please link some cute ones? Thinking of treating myself to something nice to celebrate finishing school! What types of items do y’all recommend?

Congratulations – what a huge accomplishment and YES you should treat yoself! I think a classy dress or flowy pant with blouse would be beautiful for photos! And since this is an accomplishment you will look back on one day, you want it to be timeless and classy. Nothing over the top or colorful.. play it safe with a simple silhouette like this dress or this dress. If you want a little something with flare, this dress is very classy in the front but has a sassy back. The ones I just linked are all a little simple and if you want something lighter and brighter here are some great options: one | two | three

Alix- what protein powder are you using in pregnancy and what is the electrolyte supplement you take?

Right now I’m finishing up Primal Kitchen protein powder and like the flavor, but will probably switch to this protein powder after as it’s a little cleaner. My friend let me try a sample of hers and the flavor and texture was great. I take this electrolyte supplement daily…I pour one packet in my 40oz Hydroflask with ice and it tastes great. I plan to continue to take this while breastfeeding as well to help me stay hydrated.

What is a good sunblock for kids, face and body? Maybe even a face one they can wear everyday like we do. What is a good daily face sunscreen/moisturizer for men?

I use Beauty Counter for myself and Quinn. I love their sunscreen stick to get her face and quick reapplication. Thinkbaby Sunscreen and Badger are also safe options. For body lotion with SPF for the family I like this or this one. I like to use the EWG Healthy Living app to check how clean and safe products are. A lot of men like this face sunscreen or can also use the Beauty Counter face sunscreen.

xx, A+H
