Gift Guide: Easter Basket

Tay and I love Spring.  In fact, I'm visiting her in about 3 weeks and am pretty excited about being reunited in LA with her.

Kate Spade Strand Tote / $14.95  We love this cute collaboration between KS and the Strand, a much-loved used bookstore in NY.  The theory I'm testing is that you can never have enough of these canvas bags.



Middle Men by Jim Gavin / $15.64 New Yorker contributor Jim Gavin's book of short stories draws from his own experiences growing up in Southern California and includes his seminal piece, "Costello" (originally published in the magazine).  


Illamasqua Nail Varnish in Fragile / $21.92 Because the only goal I have for my nails is for them to be seasonally appropriate and coordinate with holidays.  

Gypsy Pepper Scarf / $15 I imagine this scarf with yards of gauzy white linen.  Tortoiseshell sunglasses.  Maybe a floppy hat.  A skin tone with actual signs of color.  I hate winter.


Babycakes Vanilla Cake Mix / $25  I like this bakery.  Most products are gluten, soy, and dairy-free but without being too precious about it (after all, it is a cupcake).  Yes you could make these at home, but as a child of consumerism, why?  Kidding, but the packaging is adorable.


Goat Milk Soap in Nautical / $6.50  This stuff is actually amazing.  My whole family (even our dog) uses this line and it's incredibly moisturizing.  A family and their team of goats in rural Indiana are responsible for this miracle product.  I love the brisk freshness of this particular scent.


Tools of the Trade Earrings / $12 I'm a fan of her whole line.  Lots of unique, inexpensive handmade jewelry with an emphasis on eco-friendly construction and using recyclable materials.
