Our August Must Haves
For the home:
We’re obsessing over the delicious summer scents—Thai Lemongrass, Peonies & Peaches, White Tea & Ginger, and Lemon Lavender—concocted by Malvern-based Main Line Candle. They’re all-natural and made of 100 percent soy wax. $9-$28.
Available at www.mainlinecandle.com.
For you:
Move over bonbons, it’s all about pom poms. Add a statement that’s pure fun with these brightly embellished “Havana” hoops from Baublebar. $18.

Personal touch:
Megan Kristel wears many hats: blogger; personal shopper; style expert; and, now, owner of Kristel Closets boutique. The intimate space—which recently opened in Conshohocken—is a by-appointment-only style studio where Kristel meets one-on-one with clients and hosts her popular “Well Dressed Woman” workshops. You’ll also find a well-curated selection of clothes from the designers sold on her e-commerce site. “Price point is really important to me,” says Kristel. “Nothing in the boutique is more than $100.”
