\"Georgie\"<\/p>\n

My bff and style icon Georgie<\/a> was wearing sparkly jellies the other day, and it got me wondering: what shoes will you be wearing this summer? I\u2019ve worn these<\/a> all winter, but I\u2019m not sure what my sandal plan is. Tell me your thoughts!<\/p>\n

\"creamy<\/p>\n

The other day, our friends Rob and Kath invited us over and made creamy white chicken chili<\/a>. Toppings included rice, sour cream, cheddar cheese, scallions, avocado, lime, and crushed-up tortilla chips. (Is there anything crushed-up chips don\u2019t<\/em> make better?) \u201cThis soup is good for a dinner party because it\u2019s not fussy to make,\u201d Rob told me. I\u2019m thinking of making round two this weekend. <\/p>\n

\"thigh<\/p>\n

My friends have raved about these slip shorts<\/a> for years (our contributor Kelsey wore them in her week of outfits<\/a>) for preventing thigh chafe and wicking away sweat. The shorts, of course, are great for working out, running errands, or layering under a sweatshirt for that Princess Diana look<\/a>. But I\u2019m planning to wear them under summer dresses so I can feel blissfully free on adventures, versus sitting uncomfortably at picnics or trying to keep my knees together on bike rides. The cargo version<\/a> has pockets (!), but on hot days, I\u2019ll be pulling on their cooling pair<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"Alexandra<\/p>\n

Finally, how lovely is this children\u2019s bedroom in Alexandra Tolstoy\u2019s English cottage<\/a>? My kids would be thrilled to squish into a room with overnight guests. This part of the interview \u2014\u00a0about keeping a house looking the same \u2014\u00a0was very sweet, too: \u201cI rehung two pictures the other day and my children were aghast,\u201d she laughs. \u201cEvery picture, every little bit, has stayed in its place over the years. I realized what a point of stability it was for them.\u201d<\/p>\n

What small things have you been enjoying lately?<\/strong><\/p>\n

P.S. More fun things<\/a>, and an ice-cream sandwich taste test<\/a>.<\/p>\n
