Favorites for the Month of April

We’ve already made our way to mid-April, and it’s time for another round of IDCO favorites. This month, we added a few new faces to our team, which means we’ve gathered more recommendations than ever. Of course, we’ll cover our top picks for your home, but we’ve also got product recommendations in beauty, fashion, skincare, books, and so much more. From one friend to another, here are all the new things we’ve loved over the past four weeks.

for your home

 

 

Alex Soffer Custom Artwork

Anastasia commissioned custom artwork from Alex Soffer Art (featured below), and it’s quickly become one of the most loved pieces in her home. Inspired by the modern art her grandmother collected in Paris after WWII, this one-of-a-kind art is an absolute treasure. Plus, she can’t recommend the experience of working with Alex enough.

 

Slatted Wood Accent Chair 

Our product manager, Bridget, is loving this light-wood armchair in her living room. It’s got all the vibes of the incredible Amber Interiors Lex Armchair, but it’s quite a bit easier on the budget. 

 

Antique Chinese Stool

Milking stools are having such a moment in design, and this one from Bloomist is a total winner. The antique stool’s natural patina brings tons of soul to a space, and this one has found its way all around Anastasia’s home.

 

Staub Cookware in ‘Sage’

Stephanie from our editorial team is always looking for the latest and greatest in cookware. She’s had her eye on the French brand Staub for quite some time, and they just released a new sage color tone that’s perfect for spring.

Janessa Leoné Gloria Hat

Here’s the deal: we know not everyone considers themselves a “hat” person. But that’s where this Gloria Hat by Janessa Leoné comes in. It’s super classic style looks good on everyone, and it comes in four sizes to get your right fit.

 

Prada Leather Platform Sneakers

After years of searching and saving, Anastasia finally found the perfect designer sneaker. There’s zero “breaking in” period, and they get compliments from friends and strangers alike.

 

St Tropez x Ashley Graham Glow Kit

While a beach vacay may not be in our immediate future, this St Tropez x Ashley Graham Glow Kit feels like the next best thing. It’s the most fantastic olive color without a hint of orange in sight.

 

Audrina Eyelet Mini Dress

Nothing says spring like a sweet eyelet lace dress, and this one from Anthro is our current favorite. It’s mini (without being too short) and comes in a great range of size-inclusive options.

 

Chloé Perfume

Finding the right perfume is a process, but this scent by Chloé checks all the boxes.

 

Rael Miracle Patch

We can all agree that blemishes are a huge annoyance. But once we discovered the miracle patch by Rael Beauty, it’s managed to change the game completely. Stubborn spots are gone by morning—no extra creams needed.

Home Before Dark

We’re currently streaming Home Before Dark on Apple TV. The story follows a young female heroine turned investigative reporter, and it’s such a suspenseful family drama.

 

Leave the World Behind 

The ‘vacations gone wrong’ category is one of our favorite genres, and Leave the World Behind delivers all that, plus then some. You’ll follow the story of a young family vacationing on a remote island when they suddenly receive a late-night knock at the door. It’s got twists, turns and will keep you guessing until the very end.

 

Minimalista 

Our dear friend Shira Gill’s new book is now available for pre-order, and you better believe we’ve already ‘added to cart.’ It’s sure to be filled with all her organizational wisdom while showcasing stunning interiors, including Anastasia’s own kitchen

 

Even the Rich

Explore some of the greatest family dynasties in history with our new favorite podcast series, Even the Rich. Our Account Director, Erin, is known for her A+ taste in podcasts, and she’s given this one her full stamp of approval.
