The June List

What I’m wearing, reading, watching, eating, cooking and loving right now

I can’t tell you how excited I am that summer is finally here! This bit - before the holidays, before it all really gets started, when the long, warm days are all stretched out before you - I can’t help but feel that this bit, June, is my favourite month of the year. Here are a few favourites that I’ve loved this month and that I’m looking forward to enjoying all summer…

My lifelong quest for the perfect black swimsuit ends happily here: a super flattering fit; lovely thick fabric; stretchy in all the right places; I love the little details on the straps; and it doubles nicely as a top with shorts or a floaty, long skirt. The perfect LBS (little black swimsuit) for all.

I’m eating all the raspberries that I can right now. Now that they’re in season and have reached peak sweet jamminess. My particular favourite combination at the moment is hot toast (the seed-y kind if I’m being vaguely healthy, and brioche bread if I’m letting my hair down) smothered in nut butter (ideally almond, but cashew is very good too) and topped with juicy, sharp red raspberries. For more inspiration as to what is good on toast, take a peek here: so many delicious ideas! And more ideas for what to do with all those glorious raspberries here.
