Lockdown on London Lane curated on LTK

It's officially February, and with the arrival of the new month, I'm already getting a start on my reading goals. While I'm planning on sharing a round-up of the books I've read for February at the end of the month, there are six new book books releasing today that I wanted to share with you. I've already finished the first book on the list and I definitely recommend it, especially for those of you who are fans of The Grace Kelly Dress that came out in 2020. I will also be sharing an interview with Jillian Cantor (Beautiful Little Fools) on the blog this month, so keep an eye out for that. #books #readinggoals

If you have a healthcare hero in your life (or work in healthcare yourself) getting a gift that you can use in your day-to-day life is always helpful. From an ’emotional support’ water bottle, the perfect pen for charting, notebooks that fit easily in your pocket when you’re learning a new process (or need to jot down orders in a hurry), and more, this list has something for your favorite healthcare hero.

As a lifelong homebody, it seemed only fitting to create a cozy gift edit centered around the fact that I love spending time at home. There are so many essentials to creating a cozy vibe, especially during the holiday season. The Balance leggings from Haven Well Within come highly recommended, and I love the idea of pairing them with a tank and a cozy sweater. Whether you like to do you are reading in bed, the Boll & Branch sheet set is the perfect way to update your bedding, or you like to curl up on the couch wrapped up in a soft blanket with a candle burning as you read, this gift edit has both options. As far as book suggestions, a mystery is always a good idea, so I’ve included two of the books (The Mystery Guest & Mastering the French Art of Murder) that I’ve read this month.

While I thought about a variety of different culinary/foodie-themed gift guides for my first edit of the holiday season, I ended up going with an edit centered around one of my favorite things throughout the year, mocktails. Having a selection of glassware, spoons (decorative and otherwise), and syrups is something any budding mixologist needs to have on hand.

It’s a well-known fact that we are lovers of all things charcuterie, so when I was contemplating which gift guide I wanted to create next, I knew it had to be centered around charcuterie. There are so many delicious things to choose from when perusing the Williams-Sonoma site, but these are just a few of my favorite selections that are sure to be palate-pleasers.

Sometimes the most delicious beverage is just San Pellegrino in a pretty glass with a little bit of honey.

I found this beautiful eyelet dress on MANGO last year and it’s one of the most comfortable, effortlessly feminine dresses that I own, making it one of my favorite pieces once the weather first starts warming up. I like to tie the dress at the neck and pair it with a pair of statement earrings and skip a necklace altogether, but depending on the look you are going for you could easily pair it with a layered necklace look, a locket, a more delicate understated jewelry look.

I paired my look with my favorite ballet mules from Margaux, in French Blue, Katie Loxton tote from last year, and added the Hidden Garden Scarf with three hidden bunnies in the design by artist Ashley D Begley from Sarah Flint NYC for a little extra blue.

This navy dress from Boden was the perfect dress to wear while exploring the Daniel Stowe Botanical Gardens. I’ve always loved navy whether it’s a solid navy, stripe, or floral print and it’s those pieces I tend to wear frequently. This Notched Neck Flutter Sleeve Dress is one of my favorite new additions to my spring/summer wardrobe which needed a little refreshing.
It’s hard finding a dress in longer lengths that don’t require hemming or have to be worn with heels, and this dress works well with my flat sandals just as well as a pair of wedge espadrilles. I paired my look with my favorite Kate Loxton Woven bag and dressed it up a bit with the blue and white floral Hidden Garden scarf from Sarah Flint. I love using the larger version of the scarf to zhuzh my handbags, while the smaller size is perfect for tying at the neck or wrist depending on what jewelry you’re going with for a particular look.

Planning a vacation and need to narrow it down to two books to take along with you. Something Wilder by writing duo @christinalauren (The Unhoneymooners) and Metropolis by @ba_shapiro (The Art Forger) was released today.

I had a chance to get a first look at both books and let me tell you these books will hook you in and won’t let you go until the last page. Something Wilder takes you on an unexpected treasure hunt with so many twists and turns you’re never sure who to trust.

Metropolis gave me an Only Murders in the Building vibe, except it’s set in a storage warehouse versus being an actual apartment building. We meet a diverse set of characters whose lives are changed when an accident happens, but was it really an accident? #books

Did you know that Apple Cider Vinegar has been used as traditional remedy for digestion? The first thing that I noticed about Goli’s ACV Gummies is just how good they taste. I still remember growing up when my grandmother used to have me drink a glass of apple cider vinegar that only had a drop of honey in it to make it taste better. The ACV Gummies from Goli couldn’t be more different!
.
Made with apple cider vinegar powder, beet root powder, pomegranate powder, pectin (made from fruit peels making them vegan!), Vitamin B12 and B9 (to promote metabolism, cellular energy production, heart and nervous system support, normal red blood cell production and antioxidant support).

While olive green might be considered more of a fall color, I love adding it to my wardrobe throughout the year. I found this beautiful maxi shirt dress from Tuckernuck during a sale a few months back, and I was already thinking of pairing it with a vintage belt from my mom, and my favorite pair of Sarah Flint’s.
There’s just something about shirt dresses that makes me feel nostalgic. My mom who has always had a sense of style I aspire to, wore quite a few shirt dresses when I was growing up in California. One of the dresses with a beautiful shade of pink, and I’m reminded of those days of spending hours in shopping malls from San Diego to Los Angeles with treats like my favorite snickerdoodle cookies, Sunday morning brunches with massive bran muffins, picking out books at the White Rabbit and trips to the beach only five minutes away from where we lived in La Jolla.

Blood Orange is one of my all-time favorites when it comes to citrus and San Pellegrino has the most delicious Blood Orange Sparkling Drink that we like to keep stocked in our pantry at all times. It’s delicious when paired with a charcuterie board, a pasta dish, or just on its own for a little afternoon refreshment.

#LTKSeasonal #LTKhome #LTKunder50

Charcuterie boards are the perfect way to celebrate the produce from each new season and I adore my charcuterie board from West Elm! #charcuterie #foodstylist

When it’s far too cold outside, sometimes you have to take the outfit shoot indoors. I’ve been looking forward to styling this little dark floral dress from Ann Taylor for over a month now. It’s an absolute dream to wear, so comfortable and it pairs well with several of my favorite flats from Sarah Flint, the Natalie, is an obvious choice, the style of this shoe lends itself to both dresses and jeans alike. I also love it with the Sacchetto in sand calf if you’re looking for a lighter color option and if you thought the Natalie was comfortable, the Sacchetto ballet flats are like walking around in your favorite pair of slippers.

Sometimes when you’re wearing chunky knits it’s hard to feel especially feminine, so one thing I like to do for myself is wear a beautiful lacy bra or bralette underneath.
.
I recently ordered the Lace No-Wire Push-Up Bra from @wearlively and I can’t get over how beautiful it is!
.
If you’re looking for the perfect lacy bra, this is definitely one to consider (plus you don’t have to worry about wires digging into your skin!)

I love to smile, but I’ve been noticing my smile and 11 lines more and more lately. When I heard about Cryo Fill from @siobeauty I couldn’t wait to try it out. It is made with ingredients that enhance your skins ability to lock in moisture plumping and reviving dull skin. The Camellia Japonica Flower extract defends skin from environmental stress, while Vitamin C brightens and Purified Oat Extract calms.
.
Another thing that I personally love is the fact that there is no overwhelming scent to this product. So if you’re looking for a non-invasive option to diminish fine lines, this is definitely a product to try out.
