Fashion Accessory: A Mask For Every Outfit


My search for the best face masks continues. I don't think one can have too many. In fact, I am so looking forward to what the makers come up with for Fall. Hopefully, we will see cashmere, suede, faux fur,  tweed and more.  For now, these fashion forward masks will see us through the rest of  Summer. Let's #MaskTogether until we 
can stop this virus.


Silk Mask Scarf
So many ways to wear this mask/scarf, and very different than the rest!

Limited Edition Lace Face Mask
Embrace lace for day or night. I recently saw Sarah Jessica Parker wearing this
 on line. 

Silvia Tcherassi Face Mask
Created from upcycled fabrics from previous collections. It's cut in all cotton with comfy ear elastics.

Alice + Olivia Masks
These are great fun. But best yet, they are donating up to 10 meals to No Kid Hungry for each mask sold. Chic and charitable is a 
winning combination. 

Limited Edition Mask
Loving these creative masks that have been hand made by artists.  The Savannah was created by Christy Leigh. It was made responsibly in Turkey from breathable 100% cotton. Ships in 
2 - 4 days.

Cotton Face Mask
For red letter days! Why not make a statement while staying safe? Other colors and styles available. It's very chic in cotton.

Katie May Disco Ball Mask
If you are like me, and enjoy a bit of glam, this mask is for you. Also available in pink and ivory.

Artist Print Face Mask
Also made responsibly in Turkey of 100% cotton. Your purchase includes 3 disposable filters.

Mona Lisa Mask
The perfect mask for the art lover. This mask made me smile. You will find many different versions of this mask at....
Redbubble

Embroidered Cotton Face Mask
This is a fun Etsy shop from Canada with lots fun things for parties, weddings, and face masks. I thought this style (there are many more) stood out nicely against the leather jacket for Fall.
Love And Luxe Handmade

Rose Gold Sequin Mask
A limited edition of only 400. It's fun and fancy for day or night.

Slip Silk Face Coverings
From the makers of the Slip silk pillow cases. I can think of nothing more luxe than the feel of silk against your face.

Cooking With Kids: Recipes & Cooks Tools

 

My heart goes out to parents and grand parents this Summer and Fall. The decisions to be made are many and so important. "Miss Shop This" and I always enjoyed cooking together. It was good bonding time, and having her help, created an interest in good food and a sense of accomplishment.  This recipe roundup features food that kids will love, and can actually help to make. They will have fun with the pint sized 
cooks tools, too!

Cake Kit
It's Summer. Let's start with dessert first. Kids of all ages will absolutely love this cake! Who wouldn't? The perfect kitchen project for Grandma and Grandpa! It's only sold at

Flour Shop Rainbow Pop-Up Cake Kit
If the layer cake intimidates you, this kit could be a good option.  Last I heard, kids love cake pops. Eating these pretty pops will make any day a special occasion. 
Williams Sonoma

Ghirardelli Brownie Mix Cookies
Using a boxed brownie mix really makes baking cookies easy. It certainly does away with several steps. Ghirardelli's chocolate is so yummy. I would love to use their mix. You can get it at Amazon, if you can't find it locally. My guess is that any brand might do just fine. The recipe can be found at

Encourage protein whenever you can. These are crisp on the outside and creamy on the inside. The kids will love breading the tofu, and it is a good messy, which is always fun.  This recipe creates a healthy after school snack.

Sending them off to school? The lunches you pack will be good for the environment, and for

The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale


During these uncertain times, sales are plentiful. Paying full price, just doesn't seem important. Nordstrom's Anniversary Sale is a bit different than the rest. They have reduced new season items, styles we will wear or use way into Fall. How fun is that? As I have been working on this post the last 24 hours, some of my picks have already sold out. So fair warning, shop fast. Prices go back up, if not sold out, August 30th. This edit features my faves for your home, wardrobe, and skincare. I invite you to visit the sale, and find something 
you love.


Donna Karan Quilt
Glamorous and serene, in silk, this one piece will transform your bed into a sophisticated retreat. Available in ivory, gold dust or silver.

Nike Sportswear Palazzo Pants
Atleisure at its' best! I know that I would
 live in these.

Taylor Waterproof Bootie
Cole Haan is known for their comfortable footwear.  These are sleek and will stand up to all weather, and feature energy foam cushioning.

Living Proof Full Styling Set
A three piece volumizing hair care set that really works for fine hair like mine. I use these products with every shampoo. It's a $85 value that is now $56 during the sale.

Form and function. It's also your cocktail's best friend. BPA free and keeps cold drinks cold for up to 25 hours and hot drinks warm for up to 12 hours. This is on my list.

Balloon Sleeve Cashmere Sweater
It's all about the sleeve in this causally chic cashmere sweater. Gathering at the cuffs and hem create soft folds throughout.

Polarized Cat Eye Sunglasses
If you collect sunnies, you need these in the collection. They feature an edgy retro look.

Almost too pretty to use! 

Frame Les Second Tote
Loving this citrus orange color. It reminds me of my favorite H brand. And yes, the pouch is included. It's a great buy now.
After Sale: $450 Now: $199

Kiehl's Creme de Corps
What a wonderful body cream! Before I went to all clean skincare, it was my fave. It's thick, rich, and oh so nurturing. I also loved the sheen it leaves on your skin. This is a beauty of a buy!

Leather Moto Vest
Lafayette 148 NY creates luxurious leather. Biker chic at its' best!  This darkest of navy is almost black. Love it.


I love using votive candles around the house and on the dining table. Sprinkle these everywhere for a glam and romantic vibe. Available in four 
fab fragrances.
