You guys sure know how to make a girl feel good!! I can not even begin to thank you for all the love and support you gave me, and the Gibson x Hi Sugarplum Collection yesterday! I am blown away by your enthusiasm and excitement, and am thrilled you love the pieces as much as I do.
We had an early sell-out, but were able to get most every style fully-restocked by the afternoon. So if you missed something, be sure to check back. The Gibson team is also already hard at work on re-orders, and we hope to have more coming soon (maybe even in new colors and patterns!). So stay tuned for that! (Find the full Collection, including plus and petite sizes, HERE)
Today I’ve got a new Dressing Room Diaries for you…and this one is a little special because I’m sharing all my own pieces (I don’t think I’ll ever get used to saying that!). But instead of perfectly styled, I’m showing them in the format you like best…real and raw, with close-up views, styling tips, and real-girl fit. And of course I brought my darling Mama Sugarplum along for her take. Let’s get to it!
Sidenote: I’m 5’4″ and 120-ish pounds, and usually wear a 0/XS. Mama Sugarplum is 5’1″ with an hourglass figure, and usually wears a small/2p.
Scottsdale Striped Tunic
This Resort Collection is created as a capsule wardrobe, so you’ll see a lot of mixing-and-matching of the pieces…starting with the Scottsdale Striped Tunic. Soft and breezy, the lightweight material is perfect for steamy days, and cool nights. It’s long-sleeved with roll-tabs, and front flap pockets. It hits below the hips for a longer, relaxed fit.
Styling Tips:
The length makes it a chic cover-up over swimsuits (shown here)
Half-tucked into jeans or the Cabo Pool Shorts
Wear it open and tied at the waist with shorts or open over the Seaside Jersey Romper (shown here)
Fit Tips:
We’re both wearing regular XS, but size down if you prefer a more traditional shirt fit.

Carmel Halter Top
The perfect Summer top for day or night. It has a true halter neckline, with adjustable tie to make the v-neck as high or low as your sass-meter prefers. It has a high-low shirttail hem, and fully covers the bum. It comes in vibrant prints and a gorgeous pink.
Styling Tips:
Fully-tucked in the Sedona Wide Leg Pants for a chic & comfy look. (shown here)
Half-tucked with jeans for day or night. Just swap out sandals for wedges and add punchy jewels to dress it up. (shown here)
Paired with cut-offs for a fun casual, breezy style
Wear it with white jeans, and add a jean jacket for an extra layer of style.
Fit Tip:
We’re both wearing an XS, and the adjustable tie allows for a more custom fit at the chest.
Carmel V-Neck Top | Sedona Wide Leg Ankle Pants | White Jeans | Sandals | Earrings | Ring | Retro Bangle
Santa Fe Ric Rac Top
Made of textured, gauzy cotton, it’s hard to imagine a softer, lighter Summer top. The colors make it festive and the ruffles keep it flirty. The elastic is soft and stretchy, and holds at the arm or shoulder. Mom prefers it a little higher on her shoulder for an exaggerated boatneck style.
Styling Tips:
Fully-tucked in the Sedona Wide Leg Pants for a chic & comfy look. Cute with flat sandals or wedges. (shown here)
Thanks to side slits, it’s cute untucked with cropped pants or slim shorts.
Half-tuck it with skinny jeans or jean skirt and wedges for a casual night out. (shown here)
Fit Tip:
We’re both wearing XS. The elastic is stretchy and allows for more room in the chest.
Santa Fe Rickrack Top | White Jeans | Sandals | Earrings | Ring | Retro Bangle
Savannah Embroidered Tee
Your favorite t-shirt, but with oodles of style and personality! The body is a soft, relaxed, slub cotton, with a beautifully-sewn embroidery in contrasting trim. A button closure gives it an elevated style. It comes in this blue and black, plus a darling pink and vibrant multi-color.
Styling Tips:
With cropped pants and wedges. Add a jean jacket, too!
Half-tucked into jeans or the Cabo Pool Shorts (shown here)
Fully-tucked in the Sedona Wide Leg Pants for a chic & comfy look. (shown here)
Fit Tip:
We’re both wearing XS, but it’s a generous fit, so you might consider sizing down depending the fit you prefer.
Savannah Embroidered Tee | White Jeans | Sandals | Earrings | Ring | Retro Bangle
Malibu Embroidered Racerback Tank
If I were a tank, I’d be this tank. Super soft and flattering fit, with a statement back. The embroidery panel is beautifully sewn in the best contrasting color for a chic or flirty combo…your pick!
Styling Tips:
Fully-tucked in the Sedona Wide Leg Pants for a chic & comfy look. (shown here)
Fully-tucked into shorts or jean skirt for a casual day style.

Cabo Pool Shorts
Easy-to-wear, pull-on elastic shorts in a lightweight, breezy material. They hang well, without hugging the body. Adjust the fit with a cute drawstring, and wear them high on your waist or lower on the hips. And yes, there’s pockets!
Styling Tips:
Pair them with the Savannah Embroidered Tee and sandals for a cute day look. (shown here)
Layer the Summerland Pocket Tank and a jean jacket for an easy transitional style.
Fit Tip:
We’re both wearing XS, but size up if you’re pear-shaped.
Savannah Embroidered Tee | Cabo Drawstring Shorts | Sandals | Earrings | Ring | Retro Bangle
Summerland Pocket Tank
I’m a sucker for basic tanks in the steamy months, but can never find exactly what I want!! Until now! This cotton is soft with just a touch of drape so it hugs the body, but doesn’t wrap it. It scoops in the front and back, showing just enough skin. And we even threw in a little pocket for extra style!
Styling Tips:
Fully-tucked in the Sedona Wide Leg Pants for a chic & comfy look. (shown here)
Layered under the Scottsdale Striped Tunic, tied at the waist, or a jean jacket/cardi. (shown here)
Thrown on with the Cabo Pool Shorts and flip flops for easy Summer style. (shown here)
Fit Tip:
We’re both wearing XS, but if you’re small-chested I’d recommend sizing down.
Summerland Scooped Neck Tank | Sedona Wide Leg Ankle Pants | Sandals | Wedges | Earrings | Ring
Seaside Soft Jersey Romper
Softer than your favorite pajamas, this terry cotton feels like heaven! It’s soft and stretchy, without being clingy. It’s relaxed through the body, and the elastic waist and drawstring allow you to wear it on your natural waist or pulled lower.
Styling Tips:
Tie the Scottsdale Tunic or a jean jacket over for fun layers. (shown here)
Wear it over your swimsuit for a pool to lunch cover-up. (shown here)
Pack it as your head-to-coffee or wallowing-on-the patio loungewear on vacation!
Fit Tips:
We’re both wearing XS, but I’d recommend sizing down if you’re small-chested.

Laguna Jersey Ruffle Tank Dress
I’m most excited for you to receive this dress…the luxe material is just impossible to describe, or deny! Everyone I know just melts the moment they touch it. Now imagine being able to wear it! The racerback fit is fun, and the ruffles so flirty. It skims the body without clinging, and is a great knee-length.
Styling Tips:
Pair it with wedges and a punchy bag for a sassy day out. (shown here)
Add a jean jacket and sneakers for a sporty look.
Throw it over your swimsuit for a pool to lunch outfit.
Fit Tip:
We’re both wearing XS, but size down for a closer fit, or choose petite for shorter length.

Catalina Ruffle Romper
A great alternative to a dress, this flirty ruffle-trim romper easily dresses up for Day or Night. The loose sleeves and legs move freely, and the elastic waist creates a comfy and flattering silhouette. We added a snap closure at the chest, removable tie belt, and even pockets!
Style Tips:
Dress it up with heels and statement jewels for date night.
Go casual with flat sandals and a woven tote. (shown here)
Meet the girls for lunch in wedges and oversized sunglasses. (shown here)
Fit Tip:
We’re both wearing XS, but I’d recommend sizing down one.

No style is more forgiving that a Summer swing dress! Go ahead and eat dessert, nothing is showing in this cutie! The halter gives you an adjustable fit, with long ties in the back for extra movement.
Styling Tips:
With strappy heels, clutch and statement jewels for date night. (shown here)
Flat sandals and a woven bag make it flirty and functional for day. (shown here)
Go with something in-between with wedges and a straw crossbody. (shown here)

We’re both wearing XS, and it’s true to size. Petite sizing is available if you prefer shorter length.

Styling Tips:
Sass it up with wedges and a clutch. Add a jean jacket for an extra layer of style. (shown here)

I could mix-and-match and style these pieces forever! In fact, you’ll be seeing more of them soon since we’ve got a little getaway scheduled next month! I’ve been dreaming of outfit combinations with them for months, and have a lot to share! Which pieces would you like to see styled more ways? I have a live try-on session with everything in my Instagram profile, too. (Look for the circle labeled ‘GxHSP Try On‘.)
What pieces did you grab for yourself? Don’t forget everything has been restocked, but if you see a sell-out, keep checking…we’re working hard to keep up with the demand! With all my heart, thank you for your enthusiasm and genuine support!!

This collection was gorgeous and so YOU! I’ve got four pieces ordered but wanted every single one!! Cannot wait to share them ☺️☺️ Congrats Cassie!
Love the collection! Can’t wait for my pieces to arrive! Thanks for the hard work designing a great collection. Hugs
Congratulations on a wonderful collection! I abso-positively cannot wait for delivery. And a restock in more patterns/colors? My heart just expanded two sizes :0 Two questions: which wedge sandal do you find yourself reaching for most often – you have featured both the T&Bond and the VCamuto (which has a lower wedge). Also curious whether you size up in the TB Millers. I find my normal 8.5 a teensy bit small (short in length) but the 9s are a teensy bit big – what to do?!
Thank you so much, Paula! I love both wedges, but do find myself reaching for the lower VC more often. They are more streamlined and have a flattering leg line, plus the lower wedge is a little more comfortable. My mom has them, too. As for the Miller (adore these sandals!), I size up half because I have a high arch and need a little more room on top of my foot.
Step aside Cassie! Mama SP looks so fabulous in this Gibson Collection! Ha,ha. : )
The wide leg pants are still sold out in anything near my size so I’ll keep checking back. The Palm Springs Maxi dress would be my dream dress if it came with a built in shelf bra like a bathing suit. I know that would add to the cost of construction but boy would that make life easier!
You’ve worked hard to make this collection buzz-worthy. I hope you’ll have more projects in the future!
Alas, wide leg pants still sold out! I’ll keep checking…
PS Personally I blame you for making them look so darn cute on you and Mama SP …
Everything is so cute!! My order comes tomorrow-so fast! Fingers crossed the maxi dress is restocked!!
One of the positive things about your collections for me are the colors. For the past 20 years or so, it has been difficult for me to locate clothing in clear, bright colors. Apparently, most of the up and coming fashion companies are marketing colors that are dull or grayed. Those are not good for my blond mature lady coloring. With an influencer such as yourself in charge, the clothing line includes items that work for our southern conservative lifestyles as well. For example, I am not going to wear a brownish gray and extreme oversized sweater but will wear a comfortable clear light gray sweater. Yet the extremes seem to be what the fashion houses are pushing. Thanks for your work.
Love all of the pieces! My favorite is the “SAVANNAH EMBROIDERED TEE”. Love all of the color ways- trying to decide which one to order! You and your mom are darling! I enjoy seeing both of you together.
What beautiful pieces! I think the tropical print halter in the first pic is my favorite! So exciting!
Cheers!
Shelley
The new pieces are gorgeous – congrats!
You and your mom look great in them, but it would also be nice to see how they look on plus size models. Thanks!
I love all the styles! I really wish some of the dresses/rompers came in tall sizes for us long leg/torso ladies. Your family must be so proud of you 🙂
I think everything in the collection is absolutely beautiful, wish I could afford to buy one of everything! I love how everything mixes and matches….I saw today on your fb the romper and striped tunic, never would have thought of that! Congrats, you did a fantastic job. I’m hoping to get a few pieces, I’m pregnant and due end of March so fingers crossed items will still be available.
What color do you wear in the Vince wedges?
My tan color is sold out right now, but I’ll keep an eye on restocks!
You both look absolutely amazing in everything!!!!!
So many cute outfits in this collection! I love that striped tunic – I could totally wear it from work to night out. Love it all!
I am absolutely loving your collection and I just placed an order for three items. Since I live in Copenhagen, I will be sporting your clothing around town promoting Gibson in Denmark 🙂 I am lucky to have friends travelling to the US so they can pick up my delivery at their nearest Nordstrom store!
Congratulations on this very successful adventure 🙂
I love this!! That’s real dedication…thank you so much! I hope you love the pieces! xo
Love all the looks and your collection! The Savannah tshirt is gorgeous in all options! Your Mom is beautiful! Love to see your collaboration with her. Congratulations on a successful clothing collection debut! Ya did good girl! 👍😉
Thank you so much! xo
Received the black Sedona pants today and looooooove them! So cute on – and comfy! 🙂 Can’t wait to wear them on date nights and on a cruise in May! Bummed the Malibu top in black/white is not available in my size. 🙁 Hoping there are more on the way. Thanks for the fun pieces!
Yay!! I’m so excited to hear you love them!! I adore those pants! And stay tuned for reorder updates!!!
Hi Cassie, I just recently found your blog. Really love this new collection. Such fun and happy colors, can’t wait for warmer weather to arrive. Have a couple questions-wanted to know if the blue floral halter dress is more bright like in the Nordstrom website and your photo shoot in Palm Springs or is it darker the way it looks in your dressing room diaries? Same question for the blue embroidered short sleeve top. It almost looks navy in the dressing room picture. Congratulations!
Thanks so much, Pam! The colors from my Palm Springs photoshoot are most accurate, those were taken with a real camera with balanced light, etc. The dressing room shots are just with my phone, and the store lighting isn’t the best. Hope that helps!
Congratulations on your line. It is all beautiful. Sadly, work was challenging for me this week and prevented me from ordering. Tried today but most of my fav pieces are sold out. I will keep a look out for restocks. Congrats again.
Thank you so much, Vicki!! We’re working on reorders and hope to have updates soon!
Love it! I ordered the pink floral swing dress and would love to style it with the green earrings like you did, but they’re sold out. Do you know if they will restock the earrings?
Hi Elizabeth…mine are a light teal, similar to these: https://shopstyle.it/l/YZex
ALL my pieces have shipped and I can’t wait to try! Let me just say again girl…you’ve got some amazing genes. Your momma is gorgeous.
Yay! I can’t wait to see what you got and hope you love them!!! And agreed, hopefully I have ALL her genes!
Love this collection!! Can you tell me the color of the lighter pair of the TB Miller sandals?
Thank you so much! Those are ‘makeup’…a great nude that go with literally EVERYTHING!!!
