make - Banana Bread Porridge Bowl. I’ve shared this one before but it is so delicious and filling and EASY to make! I top it with my favorite nut butter and if I have them, cacao nibs.

watch - Lupin season 2 is here! Loved the first one and just started watching this highly anticipated follow-up.

wear - My go-to wide leg denim. Loving this popular again style but not sure where to start? This pair from re/done is a great fit, not too tight, flattering on the bum, and the perfect summer hue of blue. This pair from Veronica Beard is insanely comfortable (almost like wearing sweatpants). The fabric is ultra lightweight and soft and also the perfect warm weather shade.

Most of the time we didn’t even have a net up! Check out this pretty set and here is a sportier version (which includes the net) from Target.

If you were following along last Summer this is huge news because these pretty beach/garden loungers were impossible to find in the US and were only shipping from Australia last year. Yippee!

make - This Grilled Vegetable Burrata Sandwich with Lemon Thyme Honey Mustard is so delicious you will want to eat it everyday for a week! It also works really well with goat cheese if you prefer that or have a lactose issue. Such a lovely lunch idea or dinner alternative to a burger! Service with crispy sweet potato fries.

local - The Darien Sport Shop is an incredible small business based here in Connecticut and they are now available to shop online! They have been family-owned and operated for over 75 years and I am so impressed with their assortment of Men’s, Women’s, and Children’s. I shared these sneakers for the boys on Instagram last week - the perfect summer shoe, easy to slip on and machine washable. My favorite part about the Sport Shop is their assortment of brands like Ulla Johnson, Sea, and Agolde. They often feature styles that are hard to find our sold out elsewhere like this pair of denim shorts (my absolute favorite for Summer). The best part of shopping small? The customer service! Don’t hesitate to call the store with any questions whether you’re local or shopping from afar.

It’s hard to tell in the product photo but they are thicker than a traditional workout biker short and softer too. Just perfect if you ask me! I paired them with this blouse I have from Xirena.

This Curry Chicken Salad Summer Rolls with Mango Chutney looks and sounds divine! It is fresh and light and I love that it doesn’t include any raw onions or peppers. Yum!

The wild flower series is my favorite: chamomile and astrantia.

watch - Currently watching: I finished season one of Broadchurch on Netflix last week and thought it was excellent. It was definitely on the sad/depressing side as it is centered around the murder of a young boy in a small Scottish town but very well done. We also just finished zerozerozero on Amazon Prime and it was a 10/10!

Back again to share more budget-friendly and size inclusive style. I feel very strongly that looking and feeling great in your clothes doesn't have to mean breaking the bank and should be accessible regardless of size. This is why I love Free Assembly.

A fresh pair of denim - high-waisted with just the right amount of stretch. I love this alternative to skinny jeans. Tuck in a tank top our your favorite boho blouse! * This pant runs TTS

The perfect tee - when I say perfect I mean PERFECT. This one has just the right amount of slouch, a great neckline, and the quality is so great you won’t believe it was $12. PS The “claw” color is an amazing creamy dreamy shade that is SO hard to find. TRUST ME! * This tee runs TTS

A maxi dress - This easy breezy maxi dress is perfect for warm days and nights. Love it in the back or white and for $39. *Runs TTS

Why Free Assembly? I was so excited to first introduce you to Free Assembly a few months ago for a couple of reasons. Not only is the line good-looking and affordable, they are also committed to sustainability. Most of their cotton is organic, which avoids fertilizers and pesticides. These 90’s style jeans for example are made up of 99% organic cotton and 1% elastane. Additionally, their denim is produced in LEED certified facilities that aim to protect the environment and are also Fair Trade certified. Free Assembly is also size inclusive and most items are available up to a size 24.

SUMMER FAVORITES ON SALE

I have been in need of an underwear upgrade! After reading that they’re supposed to be replaced every 6 months to a year…it was time lol. I found this set from my favorite brand Cosabella and was waiting for it to go on sale!I also bought this pack of three.

I’ve always loved this braided gold necklace. This is a classic style thats currently on trend but never going away. Wear it with your t-shirt and jeans with a cardigan or throw it on over a dress with a simple neckline. It can be worn casual or dressy.

My favorite under $70 sunglasses sold out in the tan color but they are still available in black AND just released in tortoise! they are such a flattering frame, not too oversized, a slight cat-eye, and I think they look good on every face (my mom wore them the other day and they were great on her).

These are arguably the most flattering pair of denim I own. I cut the hem on mine which is why mine has a frayed edge (you can see how I did on my Instagram reels). They are under $100 and will just wear so well overtime. the fabric is a little stiffer then your classic jean so I suggest sizing up one size. Trust me…the low stretch means they never get baggy and remain SO flattering (especially from behind!).

make - 10 Overnight Oats Recipes That Are Full of Flavor, Fiber, and Protein. Love these recipes from Well + Good. I’ve been making a lot of oatmeal recently - It’s hearty, filling, and FODMAP friendly. I love that it’s also a great base for whatever I have in the fridge/pantry at the moment. I usually add banana, almond or peanut butter, cacao nibs, and berries depending on how recently I last went to the grocery store! This is also a great (and simple) recipe.

refresh - I recently read somewhere that you should replace your underwear every 6-12 months….just going to let that sink in! Yeah I definitely don’t do that. SO just ordered a few new sets including this classic one from Calvin Klein. Here’s an article debunking the semi-annual purge theory however still felt like it was time for a refresh!

go - Got kids? Thinking of hitting the road this Summer? I discovered kid & coe through a girlfriend last year and it seems like a great tool for traveling families. She’s used it several times and highly recommends it for finding kid-friendly homes to rent around the country (and the world). We are looking at a few places for a road trip in August!

store - I’m obsessed with seagrass and jute baskets for the home. I love the natural texture of them and they are a great addition to virtually any space: on the kitchen counter for produce, as a planter, as a bread basket, even to organize toys. You can never have enough in my opinion! I’ve had these for a while. I take them out in the summer and usually fill them with tortilla chips but they can also be used to store utensils or napkins if you’e having a casual dinner with friends. I also LOVE this one from Jenni Kayne. You can use my code ArtemisT15 for 15% off!

I originally purchased them in Belgium and haven’t been able to find the source but The White Company always has beautiful options and they ship to the US!

Terry - As loungwear and streetwear continue to collide, our options are only getting more comfortable. One Spring trend I can get behind (or into) is Terry cloth. The fabric, which brings back memories of Ashton Kutcher in That 70’s Show, is popping up in ever silhouette like this playsuit from the new-to-me brand Terry. It also comes in this very pretty sky blue. Zara also has this super cute tie sweatshirt in the perfect grassy green.

tee - This week I did a sponsored style session with Walmart and it was hugely successful. By far my favorite item from the collaboration (and yours) was this $12 t-shirt. It is still available in a few sizes so I had to share it again here. The claw color is the perfect cream and the slight burnout texture makes it looks lux and soft. Highly recommend!

make - Recently my doctor suggested I follow a FODMAP diet for a few weeks as a way of determining what foods, spices, and beverages have been contributing to my tummy troubles. The rules aren't easy, no shallots, garlic, avocado, or chickpeas (I used to eat hummus 3+ times a week), but if it means feeling better, I’ll try anything! I was very pleased to discover that one of my favorite oatmeal recipes was FODMAP-approved! This banana bread porridge is delicious and satisfying. I make it with GF oats (no quinoa flakes) and I leave out the sugar. You can also add a nut butter to the top for a little added boost!

liberty - Doen has new arrivals for Spring and their latest collection is splurge-worthy! I love this liberty print blouse (which is on the pricier side) and this style in a similar print for less. They always make the prettiest white dresses.

blanket - I haven’t mentioned Zara Home in a while! Just perusing their new arrivals and found this perfectly neutral cotton and linen blanket. These are the best for picnic blankets and I also love using them as a tablecloth or on an outdoor table. I also love this classic linen style.

This year I made a commitment to share more budget-friendly and size inclusive style. I feel very strongly that looking and feeling great in your clothes doesn't have to mean breaking the bank and should be accessible regardless of size. This is why I love Free Assembly. So where do we start? With the classics of course:

A great pair of denim - high-waisted with just the right amount of stretch. * This pant runs small so size up

The perfect tee - when I say perfect I mean PERFECT. This one has just the right amount of slouch, a great neckline, and the quality is so great you won’t believe it was $12. PS The “claw” color is an amazing creamy dreamy shade that is SO hard to find. TRUST ME! * This tee runs TTS

A gray sweatshirt - These days comfort is key and this $20 sweatshirt is how to get there. Want to go all the way? Check out the matching sweatpants with the perfect gathered bottom to show off your sneaker. * This pant runs generous so size down

Why Free Assembly? I was so excited to first introduce you to Free Assembly a few months ago for a couple of reasons. Not only is the line good-looking and affordable, they are also committed to sustainability. Most of their cotton is organic, which avoids fertilizers and pesticides. This sweatshirt for example is made up of 60% organic cotton and 40% recycled polyester. Additionally their denim is produced in LEED certified facilities that aim to protect the environment. Free Assembly is also size inclusive and most items are available up to a size 24.
