The Strategist Haul: What the Editors Bought in June

Photo: Retailers If you follow our monthly feature Your Shopping Cart, you know that we have some eerily good intel on what you all are buying. Which led us to think that, as Strategist editors, we could turn the tables and highlight all the things we’ve been buying for ourselves. As you’ll notice, it’s both a blessing and a curse to be a Strategist editor; we’re picky, but sometimes we just have to get on with it. Below, what we all bought in June.

$14 at Amazon Buy $16 at Biblio Buy Chloe Anello, junior writer RHODE Rosie Heart-Print Wrap Dress $158 $395 now 60% off $158 Due to all the uncertainty with the coronavirus, it became unclear if my sister would be able to keep her wedding date in February 2021. Neither she nor her fiancée were interested in postponing, so they decided to just get married in my grandparents’ backyard in July .

$28 at Everlane Buy Maxine Builder, managing editor Everlane The Super-Soft Summer Jean Coverall $98 $98 It’s no secret that I love a jumpsuit, and ever since the weather started to heat up, I’ve been on the hunt for a not-too-expensive, not-too-thick, white option. I love the white Alex Mill jumpsuit, but I really wanted something with short sleeves . The off-white option from Big Bud Press is the right style, but it’s sold out. Even if it were available, it’s still a little too pricey.

$48 at Bolé Road Textiles Buy Justina Blakeney Botanicals on Blush Tea Towels $28 $28 Meanwhile, it was a beloved colleague’s birthday recently, so back to the 138 Black-owned businesses story I went. She loves anything bright and colorful, so I got her this festive tea towel from Jungalow, a blog turned home-décor shop, where with each purchase, two trees are planted. The pattern is an original watercolor courtesy of the store’s owner, Justina Blakeney.

From $35 at Amazon Buy From $35 at Amazon Buy Thinkbaby Safe Sunscreen SPF 50+ $18 $24 now 25% off $18 Now that summer’s here and we’ve introduced our 2-year-old to the joys of running through a sprinkler , we’re going through so much sunscreen. ThinkBaby is a baby-safe, mineral-based, great-smelling option that was suggested by my friend Maura, who always has incredible product recs for kids.

$19 at Sephora Buy “Children of Blood and Bone ,” by Tomi Adeyemi $12 $19 now 37% off $12 I have never in my life devoured a book as quickly as I did this YA fantasy novel by Tomi Adeyemi. Children of Blood and Bone is a fast-paced hero’s quest that explores magic in a stunning fantasy world inspired by West African mythology. Adeyemi’s writing is exceptional — there are twists and turns that will keep you at the edge of your seat throughout the entire book.
