This will be a very different holiday weekend for most of us. It won't look like the 1958 Swimsuited revellers above, enjoying a glass of wine outside the Carlton Hotel, Cannes. I do feel bummed about the restrictions, but Chicago, where I am, has over 63,000 Covid19 positive cases. So social distancing will be done with my Quarantine Team. Do you have one? Here's some links to begin the holiday.
I think we all have been holding back on our shopping lately. But now is the time to treat yourself, or get those things we absolutely need. I have updated the list of Sales and Coupon Codes on the blog. Find them HERE.

Have you Shopped the "World Bazaar" at
Bloomingdales yet? It's an interesting edit of interesting finds and handcrafted pieces from all over the world. I loved the small Turkish scarves.

Made In The Shade: With warmer weather upon us, it is time to get outdoors. The sun is so good for us, but don't get too much. This edit of sale Patio and Beach umbrellas is very chic and unique at
One Kings Lane

Doing any Zoom Cocktail Hours over the long weekend? Be mindful of your background, or you may be caught with your ironing board and clothes basket in view. Here's a hook up for free downloadable Zoom Backgrounds:
Flavor Paper Wallpaper's backgrounds will add so much flavor to your
cocktail hour.
One King's Lane backgrounds are less fun but very design orientated.

24 Quick & Easy Recipes To Make for
Memorial Day via Food52

With the warmer weather this weekend and beyond, are you looking for a sun hat? Here's a really cute straw one for under $50. Then there are these pearl trimmed hats by Jennifer Behr.
Both fabulous!

And finally, there's help for dark roots and grey hair. I have been using Style Edit for the last 3 weeks to cover some dark roots. Not having my hair colored since Valentine's Day has posed a problem. This powder product is a lifesaver! It comes in 10 colors, takes me about 2 minutes to apply with zero down time or mess. I use Medium Blond for my highlighted hair. You will love it.
