Nordstrom: The Beauty I’d Restock If I Lost My Bag
Thank you to Nordstrom for sponsoring this post.
These are the products I’d replace first because they shape how my entire routine works, the steps that make skin look smoother, makeup sit better, and everything feel more polished from the very beginning. They’re the kind of favorites that anchor what you do every day.
This edit follows the rhythm of getting ready, starting with skin on bare face and ending with the details that make you look finished.

Before Makeup: Prep that Changes How Everything Wears
The way makeup sits is decided long before you start applying it. These are the pieces I rely on to make skin look smoother, fresher, and more even so everything layered on top looks better.
Start with the Theraface Depuffing Wand on clean skin. The cooling metal head helps bring down puffiness and wake up the face, especially around the eyes and cheekbones, creating a smoother canvas for everything that follows.
Follow with U Beauty The Super Hydrator. This deeply nourishing layer locks in moisture so skin feels plush and balanced — an essential base that lets makeup glide on and sit evenly.
Next, apply U Beauty The Eye Concentrate. It hydrates and smooths the under-eye area so concealer and tint sit cleanly without creasing or breaking.
This is a step I reach for when skin needs a little more smoothing. This sonic dermaplaning tool removes peach fuzz and dry surface buildup, giving makeup and skincare a cleaner, more polished finish.
After Makeup: The Pieces That Make You Look Finished
Once skincare has fully settled, the focus shifts to bringing softness, dimension, and balance back into the face. These are the makeup steps that enhance skin rather than cover it — everything melts in, nothing sits on top.
Start with the U Beauty Super Tinted Hydrator. This is the base when you want skin to look even and fresh without full coverage. It offers a soft blur, natural glow, and hydration in one step, letting skin still look like skin.
Add a hint of color next. Westman Atelier Baby Cheeks Blush Stick brings a natural flush that makes skin look healthy and awake. The cream texture blends seamlessly and adds life back into the face.
Keep eyes simple and lifted. Westman Atelier Eye Want You Mascara defines and separates lashes for a clean, open look that lasts without smudging or heaviness.
Finish with lips that hold everything together. Charlotte Tilbury Lip Cheat Lip Liner softly defines the lip line and adds structure. Follow with Wonderskin Wonder Blading Lip Stain for long-lasting color that sets in place while still looking natural and effortless.

Vacation Dresses for Beach Getaways
Christiano Marcheli Dress, Gucci Sandals (also here, similar here and here), Loro Piana Bag (similar here and here), Irene Neuwirth Earrings (similar here)
Vacation dressing is about pieces that feel effortless, refined, and ready for the full day ahead. The dresses here lean into clean silhouettes, beautiful fabrics, and thoughtful details, each one designed to move easily from morning through evening.
Light, breathable fabrics lead the way.
Linen, cotton, and silk blends define this edit. Linen brings a natural structure with an ease that feels right in warm weather. Cotton keeps things soft and wearable for daytime, while silk and satin finishes add a subtle polish without feeling heavy.
Silhouettes are relaxed but intentional.
Long maxis, column shapes, and softly fitted sundresses create a balanced look—never overworked, always put together. Strapless cuts, halter necklines, and delicate straps keep everything feeling light and open.
Print and color do the work.
From graphic greens and tropical patterns to soft florals and warm sunset tones, each dress stands on its own. A strong print or color eliminates the need for overstyling—it’s a complete look in one piece.
Details feel considered.
Fringe hems, open backs, subtle draping, and textured finishes add dimension without complication. These are the elements that elevate even the simplest silhouette.
Versatility is built in.
Each dress works across settings—paired with flat sandals during the day, or slightly dressed up for dinner. The focus is on pieces that feel easy, look polished, and require very little adjustment throughout the day.
These are dresses chosen for how they wear, how they feel, and how naturally they fit into a warm-weather routine.

Introducing The New JB x Margaux Collection
Plush Top & Skirt, Magda Butrym Scarf, Saint Laurent Sunglasses, Isla Wrap Sandals
I’m so excited to share my collaboration with Margaux, a collection of six styles designed with the ease of a day away in mind.
Another Tomorrow Dress, Janessa Leone Hat, Altuzarra Tote, Palermo Sandals
When conceptualizing the collection, I kept returning to the pace of a day without structure, the kind that unfolds naturally, moving from morning into evening without urgency. Time spent walking through a charming neighborhood, lingering over lunch outdoors, resetting in the afternoon, and transitioning as the light shifts.
Sea NY Dress, Etsy Brooch, Call It By Your Name Bag, Fonteyn Flats
Similar Shirt Here, Similar Hat, Adam Lippes Skirt, Jenna Blake Necklace, Saint Laurent Sunglasses, Paros Sandals
Woven texture became a defining element. Light and breathable with a visually rich finish, it brings dimension to each silhouette while remaining effortless for warmer days. The ballet flats, in particular, are designed for all-day wear, pairing that intricate weave with a shape that feels both classic and easy.
Plush Top & Skirt, Magda Butrym Scarf, Saint Laurent Sunglasses, Isla Wrap Sandals
Color plays an equally important role. A chartreuse sandal delivers a bold, directional pop. I’ve been especially drawn to this shade for spring, while multi-tonal straps bring in a nuanced interplay of color that elevates the overall look.
Bottega Veneta Dress, By Malene Birger Bag, Parker Sandals
For warm spring days and spontaneous plans alike, these styles are designed to move effortlessly through the day. Shop the Margaux x JB collection now.
