One Good Thing: Murphy & Daughters Bon Bon Soap

Okay, I haven't actually tried this Murphy & Daughters Bon Bon Soap in person, but I am so smitten with the packaging alone that I almost feel as though it doesn't matter what the actual soap is like (although I see it has rave reviews online, so that's a plus). These would work so well tucked into little gift parcels for friends or displayed on the bathroom counter in a glass apothecary jar. Soaps are available for purchase at Anthropologie.

Three Things: Summer Skin

Oh Summer...you conjure up so many wistful memories. Of sun dappled skin, gazing up at the night sky from blankets hurriedly thrown upon still-warm ground, car rides with windows down as the evening breeze runs through our hair... sigh.

What are your summer memories? Are you transported back in time whenever a certain song plays on the radio? For me, that song is Summer Skin from Death Cab for Cutie. xo Ez
