Hello GlamFam! How are you doing at this time?! Now, more than ever, I appreciate the little things in life. Receiving the Rachel Zoe Summer Box of Style was such a welcome highlight during this new normal. I am FULLY excited to share the amazing products curated by the queen of stylist, Rachel Zoe. This would be such a kind and thoughtful gift for yourself or a style loving friend! You can check out the past seasons in these posts to see why we love them so much - the Spring BOS and the Winter BOS in these posts.
We still wanted to do our Chic at Every Age posts but stayed safe in quarantine by styling the pieces in our own way!
WHAT'S IN THE SUMMER BOX OF STYLE FOR 2020? IT'S FIVE FABULOUS PIECES! ($500 VALUE FOR LESS THAN $75)...
AND EVERYTHING IS CURATED BY RACHEL ZOE, SO YOU KNOW IT'S AMAZING!
Peter Som Dream Floral Print Sarong // (retail $195)
*This is the choice product of the Summer Box of Style, and you can choose either Rose Quartz or Meteorite (as shown on me)! Rachel worked with the fashion designer, Peter Som, to re-color the pattern from his runway archives and create this gorgeous Summer Sarong! The tassels are a fun detail on the sarong that make it fun to wear!
I LOVE LOVE LOVE scarves, and this is a perfect oversized one that is so versatile! In the above photos, I wore it as a kimono and dress (over my swimsuit)! It really can be worn so many different ways or just as a beautiful oversized scarf to wear on chilly Summer nights.
Henny + Lev Weekender // (retail $169)
This canvas and vegan leather bag is a fabulous carryall with a classic silhouette. It has a roomy interior with two large side pockets and one main zipper pocket inside. It also comes with a clutch and shoulder strap for easy carrying.
I love a good bag, and this weekender is a chic neutral colorway that is perfect year-round. I could even see it being used as a gym bag too! Henny + Lev is a new elevated sustainable handbag brand that is sister to the Lionel Handbags, an LA-based brand.
Panacea Beaded Tassel Earrings // (retail $55)
Accessories are the finishing touch to any outfit, and these white beaded statement earrings are a fabulous pair for Summer! They are 3″ long, lightweight, and will go with everything! I love the white color which shows up really well against my dark hair.
Panacea is a Dallas based company founded on the principles of GIVING BACK! I love that! The founder, Vivian, is an Aggie which makes me LOVE the brand even more!
Kosas Color & Light Palette- Tropic Equinox // (retail $34)
If you've been with me for a while, then you know that KOSAS is one of my FAVORITE clean beauty brands!!! It is fabulous makeup with skincare properties! I was SO EXCITED when I saw this cream blush/bronzer/highlighter duo in the Summer Box of Style. This is the Tropic Equinox duo and will be beautiful on any skin tone and used beyond Summer (if it lasts)! It contains moisturizing ingredients like apricot kernel oil, marula oil, and jojoba oil. The darker shade can be used as a blush or bronzer giving it even more versatility.
This set can give you a gorgeous bronzed glow by layering on top of a fully made-up face on swiping on bare skin. On days when I running late, this is a wonderful set to use for a 5-minute makeup face! I used the bronzer portion on my eyelids, as a blush, and quick color on my lips. The highlighter created a dewy-glow when used on the high portions of the cheeks, bridge and tip of the nose, and above the cupid's bow of the lip. I'm wearing it as a bronzer and highlighter in these photos!
Grown Alchemist Hydra-Repair Day Cream // (retail $49)
I've heard about the clean beauty brand Grown Alchemist and was happy at the chance to try the Hydra-Repair Day Cream in the Summer Box of Style. It did not disappoint!!! First, the ingredients include hydrating and good-for-you oils like rosehip, camellia, and geranium. Second, it is very lightweight but also hydrating which is fabulous for Summer. If you tend to have drier skin like me, then I would recommend adding a little more to places that need it.
This moisturizer absorbs quickly, has a semi-matte finish, and has been great under my makeup (shown in these photos)! The smell is absolutely gorgeous ~ lightweight citrus and floral. I know that is will be in heavy rotation as the weather heats up.

Alright GlamFam, let's chat about the outfits! This is always my favorite part since we don't discuss what we are wearing before-hand!
Cathy draped hers over a navy Summer dress which brings out the gorgeous print and tassels. Heather wore her sarong as a skirt paired with a white button-up and metallic sandals! I love her beach vibe! I tied mine as a kimono over a white tank and jeans for a relaxed boho look. Natalie looks so beautiful in a white swimsuit and hers tied as a coverup!

Happy Friday GlamFam!! How are y'all doing? Fort Worth has slowly been re-opening our city. My cousin in New York said it will be May 15th for them. We've still been holding down the fort aka staying at home. We head out to the parks on the weekend for walking/bike riding but I'm still nervous to bring the Littles to any public places like the grocery store. I'm looking forward to Mother's Day with the family this weekend! Maybe, we will do a drive-by to honk at my MIL and SIL!! We miss them!
Thank you so much for stopping by and supporting SOS! I truly appreciate it!
