Friday Faves: Walmart

· spring surprises at Walmart ·

This week’s Friday Faves post is all about spring items from Walmart! Walmart has stepped it up, adding brands like Scoop, SpaceNK, & Free Assembly. I found a few new items, like these cloud slippers, beaded earrings, and an old favorite, the By Terry body oil. The jewelry is upgraded too–check out the 14k gold heart necklace…

Reader Request: Denim Jackets

· we all need one for spring ·

I guess we all have spring on our minds since I received not one, but two requests for some denim jackets. Worn over a dress, with some white jeans or just a light layer for the beach or airplane, the jean jacket is a multi-tasking, three-season, must-have piece. Whether you invest in a more pricey…

Sunday Sales: Saks

· Friends & Family 25% off sale ·

It’s that time of year again, the Saks Friends and Family sale– which means you get 25% off new arrivals (now thru 3/29). I headed to the jewelry section and the designer clothing, specifically Veronica Beard and Derek Lam (this dress and this tee are in my cart). I am also eyeing this pearl initial…

Are you celebrating Easter with a large family gathering? Setting a table for twelve? Need some whimsical Easter basket goodies, or a table favor or two? Maybe you just want to look your best for brunch with a new dress and spring heels. However you celebrate, I hope it’s with family and friends. But, if…

Friday Faves: Spring Teases

Warmer weather has me with some serious spring fever and my posts will all reflect the change in season and mindset. For the summer, I round up some great straw totes and white sandals. For the beauty junkie I…

Splurge or Save: Spring Denim

· time for a jeans refresh ·

I don’t know about you, but come spring, I need a jean refresh. The few pairs that I rotate between during the winter are fine, but a new pair (or two) is usually called for. Last spring I tried the distressed look with my Agolde Wilder pair (splurge buy at $198), and this time I…

Sunday Sales: Ballard Designs

· revisiting the design catalog ·

A simple search for a cute mirror resulted in this post (as many shopping searches do). I was distracted by the many items that didn’t resemble the Ballard Designs I thought I knew (the catalogs usually get recycled right away). I found so many fab rugs, lighting, mirrors, linens, tableware, and of course, leopard pieces…

Book Blast 42: Revisiting & Rereading

· old faves I am rereading ·

Recently, I listened to a podcast called Once Upon a Time at Bennington College. I am not even sure how I came across it, but it sounded interesting because it centered on two famous alums, Bret Easton Ellis and Donna Tartt (two authors I love). It got me thinking that I really should reread both…
