Hi, I’m Kristina, a lead designer at W Design Collective. I’ve been part of the team for just over a year now and have been loving it.
Outside of work, you can usually find me in the pottery studio, sketching at home, or hiking the canyons near where I live. This summer, I’m especially looking forward to weekends at our family cabin - filled with kayaking, paddle boarding, and plenty of time outside.
Now, let’s get into a few things I’ve been loving this spring and summer!
This t-shirt is one of my favorite elevated basics. I love the soft pointelle fabric and delicate lace detail on the sleeves — it makes such a simple piece feel special. Definitely worth the splurge.
I’ve carried a Moleskine sketchbook with me ever since college. I especially love this version because the heavier unlined paper is perfect for notes, ideas, or quick sketches, and it holds up well to being tossed around in my purse.
I’ve been slowly swapping my products for cleaner alternatives, and this lotion from Oak Essentials has become a favorite. It keeps my skin hydrated in our dry climate while still being gentle enough for my sensitive skin. The soft herbal scent feels natural and subtle — never overpowering.
#4 Act and Acre Scalp Exfoliator
I reach for this product when I start noticing product build up and excess oil on my hair. After using it, I feel like my hair is bouncier and stays clean longer. I’m running low, so it’s time to restock.
I love changing into loungewear as soon as I get home after a busy day. I ordered this set from Pact back in January and have been pleasantly surprised by how great the fabric is. It hasn’t pilled, and it’s soft with a great fit. The tees are awesome too.
I love this monochromatic mat and frame from Etsy. I’m using a couple to frame special photos, and they add the perfect touch of color and whimsy to my gallery wall. I also love how they make everything feel a little more personal and collected.
I picked up a pair of leather sandals from this brand while I was in Puerto Rico earlier this year, and I loved being able to customize them with pretty ties around the ankles to make them feel uniquely mine. They were incredibly comfortable right from the start — no breaking in needed. Now that the weather is warming up, I’m excited to finally start wearing them.
