Happy Monday, friends, and welcome to the new and improved Hi Sugarplum! With over 13 years and 3,000 posts, it was certainly an undertaking… and we’re still working on some spots and updating others… but I hope you love the new layout and find it easier to navigate!
Rather than scrolling through (literally) 1000s of posts, we’ve organized everything by easy-to-find topics, placed the most recent and popular posts right up front, and even added all my daily outfits I post on Instagram.
It’s best viewed on a laptop or desktop, so I hope you’ll take some time to poke around and find inspiration! Let me know if something isn’t working for you, or you have additional requests. My goal is to make Hi Sugarplum a helpful resource for you!
Today I’ve got a new Loving Lately post for you, a round-up things I’ve ordered lately that have become part of the regular rotation around here.
Loving Lately //
1. Woven Leather Tote Bag // 2. CR Vitamin C Serum (code SUGARPLUM20)
3. Acrylic Tumblers // 4. Gauzy Pajama Shorts Set
5. Sunglasses // 6. College Beaded Bag Strap (code CASSIE15)
7. Gold Curtain Rods // 8. Charging Pad
9. Floral Puff Sleeve Blouse (code CASSIE15) // 10. Golden Goose Sneakers
11. LOVE Sweater (code SUGARPLUM10) // 12. Ponte Wide Leg Pants (code SUGARPLUM20)
1. Woven Leather Tote Bag // I’ve shown this cute tote bag for months now, I have it in both tan and bold pink, and carry it with my everyday outfits and even as a beach and pool tote. I recently ordered it in ‘palm green’ for the perfect fall bag!! This color is everywhere right now, and is a great neutral for fall’s best hues!
2. CR Vitamin C Serum // Vitamin C is a necessity in every skincare routine, but thanks to the odd smell, it has never been my favorite step. Leave it to my favorite Colleen Rothschild to make an incredible new Vitamin C Serum that’s both powerful and brightening, but also has no smell or tacky residue!! I use it every morning under my moisturizer. Save 20% with code SUGARPLUM20. (See my summer skincare routine HERE.)
3. Acrylic Tumblers // Sloan has a pretty intense addiction to Starbucks iced coffee in the morning, so in my attempt to cut back on that expense, I ordered these insulated tumblers… and problem solved! They’re insulated for hours of chill, with snap top lids and straws, perfect size for at-home coffees and smoothies on the go! (I shared them in a recent Monday Mail Day and y’all went crazy for them, too!)
4. Gauzy Pajama Shorts Set // Is this a cute shorts set or a lightweight pajama…. I’ll never tell! Made of a soft gauzy cotton, it’s a comfy pull-on short with a wide elastic waist, pockets, and a-line top. Comes in several prints and solids (my collection currently sits at four!), and I love wearing them as separates, too. (See how I wore it in Mexico HERE & HERE.)
5. Sunglasses // These might be the boujee-est looking sunglasses I’ve found yet!! They look so high-end and designer, no one will know they’re less than $20! See them on me HERE (I’m in the gold and grey).
6. College Beaded Bag Strap // These beaded bag straps are an incredible find!! They come in over 25 big name schools, and attach to your favorite small or clear crossbody for the perfect game day accessory! The quality is amazing! Code CASSIE15 will save you 15%.
7. Gold Curtain Rods // Mr. College was home for a couple of weeks before heading back to school, so I figured it was high-time I finished up his room! We added molding, paint, and curtains… and the transformation is incredible! But these curtain rods were my best budget find, and look amazing in the space (see it all HERE).
8. Charging Pad // A recent travel (and at-home!) must have… this compact charging pad allows you to charge your iPhone, watch, and AirPods all at once with a single cord! No more cluttered nightstand and tangle of charging cords.
9. Floral Puff Sleeve Blouse // This darling statement top with puff sleeves and ruffle trim is a fave find from my most recent Dressing Room Diaries, and I couldn’t love it more! I’ll wear it to TCU games this Fall with the fun beaded strap! Code CASSIE15 will save you 15%.
10. Golden Goose Sneakers // Definitely a splurge, and a style I never thought I’d wear! I’ve never really been a fan of Golden Goose, with the distressed (dirty) finish, but I finally found a style with no distressing, and the all-leather makes them perfect for year-round (unlike the styles with suede accents). I’m officially a fan, and know I’ll wear them on repeat with everything from dresses and jeans to lounge sets and skirts.
11. LOVE Sweater // Talk about LOVE at first sight… this sweater stole my heart! The cotton weave makes it soft and a little heavy, but not overly hot, with the cutest graphic and mock neck. Code SUGARPLUM10 will save you 10%.
12. Ponte Wide Leg Pants // Meet your favorite new everyday/travel pant!! These Ponte knit pants are beyond soft and so comfy, but have a chic, pulled-together wide leg style. They’re super versatile, too, and go with everything from tees to sweaters. Use code SUGARPLUM10 to save 10%.

The update is beautiful! Congrats! My only comment is the font is a little small, but then again, my eyesight just keeps getting worse haha.
Yes Lisa thank you for this feedback!!! I will see what I can do about this! xo, C
Are you bringing back your Blog Love list? That is how I went to the other blogs – though some needed to be deleted or updated as it looks like some no longer blog or have a broken link.
I loved that list! But sadly, most of them are no longer blogging! I still check in on a few faves regularly, but there aren’t many of us left! So many have shifted their full focus to social media.
Hi cassie, love your website and visit regularly. So far the new layout seems to operate nicely, but the font comes through very small on my laptop and there is a ton of white space on both sides of the screen. If you can bump up the font a bit, that would be really nice.
Yes totally agree, Deborah!!! Working on the font and white space for sure. Getting through the kinks! xo, C
I LUV it! Really easy to navigate and look up past goodies.
Lady, be patient w/the serious injury. They need to investigate the extent of your injury. X-rays, etc. Orthopedic surgeon=you’re in good hands. Then possibly physical therapy. I know, been there. Torn ligaments, the worst. You will feel it for a looong time. Do what doctor says. With mine, I can now predict the weather. Ugh. So sorry this happened to busy SP. You can pivot and work out the rest of your awesome self/body. xoxoxoxooxoxo. -S
Thank you for the encouragement, Sandy! In case you missed my IG Stories.. ugh, it’s a clean break! Got a cast and am posted up on the couch for a while! xoxo, C
I like the new look! I couldn’t get a couple of the links to work. The ponte wide leg and the Love sweater. The site they came from may be down! Thanks for updating your site!
Hi Kim! Shoot, I just checked those two links on the blog and they are both working for me! Here they are again for you in case these work better…
LOVE sweater (afflink): https://shopstyle.it/l/b0zBK
Ponte pants (afflink): https://shopstyle.it/l/b0zBL
Code SUGARPLUM10 works for both, too!
Love the new site design! Happy Fall!
Thank you thank you Wendy!! Fingers crossed for some cooler temps soon!
I truly don’t mean to be unkind, but I prefer your previous layout. The new one feels chaotic and busy to me, and the font is not as reader-friendly. Having said that, I’ll still probably tune in.
Thank you for this feedback, Cher! I agree that the font is a bit too small… we are still working out some kinks!! Thank you for reading!
