The Barrington Boat Club's Michelle Streit

What actress would play you in a movie? Elisha Cuthbert

Who from history would you want to travel with? Katherine Hepburn: Classy, fun, sporty, and always up for an adventure. She’s been known to say, “If you obey all the rules, you miss all the fun.” I think we’d get along quite well!

Where do you look for inspiration? I usually find inspiration when I unplug and enjoy time outside and on the water. I also rely on a tight group of female friends and entrepreneurs who keep me motivated and inspired.

Favorite book? Gone with the Wind. Scarlett O’Hara is a woman who knows what she wants and doesn’t stop until she gets it. A bit scandalous and sassy, but my heroine, nonetheless.

Most beloved cookbook? I am a busy working mom of three, so I rely on fast solutions to meal planning! My Pinterest account is popping with searches for “fast, easy, healthy meals.”

Best dinner party hack? The best dinner party hack is hiring a Food Truck! Everyone loves it, and it makes dinner parties festive, easy, and fun. I also have an amazing charcuterie goddess who I order boards from on the regular.

What’s in your bag right now? Well, I suppose that depends on which bag … I am constantly on the go working or driving my three kids around, so I rarely leave the house without my tote with work essentials so that I can use any downtime to multitask; my purse with my favorite lip gloss, hair ties, sunscreen, Blenders sunglasses, and my phone; my workout bag so that I feel obligated to hit the gym; and my “soccer mom” athletic bag filled with snacks, waters, an umbrella, and a blanket for those chilly days!

MICHELLE LOVES

Gadget My frother. Makes every cup of homemade coffee look and taste like it was made by a well-trained barista! Scent Chanel’s Coco Mademoiselle is my absolute favorite scent to wear, and Capri Blue Volcano No.6 is my current scent obsession for our home. Barrington spot The Barrington Boat Club, of course! There’s nothing better than water, sunshine, and nice boats! You’ll find me prepping boats with our crew and greeting members. Hostess gift to receive Bubbly, please! Gift to give A hostess gift or club member gift I like to give is a custom labeled bottle of a nice wine or champagne to match the occasion or a beautifully crafted charcuterie board. For birthdays, I love to gift my favorite products. My must-haves are Thrive’s Extension Lash Mascara, Trish McEvoy’s Instant Eye Lift, Blenders’ sunglasses, Infinite Warrior’s healing stone bracelets, Rodina Botanical’s cuticle oil, and list goes on…
