{Fashion Friday} Bag Obsession (& Giveaway!)

August 29, 2014

Happy Friday, my loves! The only thing better than Friday, is a long-weekend-Friday! I’m hoping my boss gets the memo, and we start this weekend early…I have sales to hit up, and projects to start! Even without the extra day off though, I’m super excited about today.

It’s no secret my striped Barrington bag is my favorite, go-to accessory. Not only is it my everyday bag, but it makes the perfect carry-on when we travel, and even doubled as a beach bag on our recent Summer vacation.

I’ll monogram anything not moving, so I’m especially smitten with the personalization. The leather straps make it sturdy, yet comfortable, and the bottom is lined with leather, as well, so it’s protected when you set it down. The cool thing about these Barrington bags, is you create your own by choosing from seven colors and nine patterns, so you get a fully-customized bag! I went with black and white stripes. Who’s surprised? #nobody

Hi Sugarplum | Beach Style

It is so chic and functional, and the black and white stripes make virtually every outfit look more stylish.

Hot Pink & Aqua
Cobalt & Aqua

 Fuchsia & White

I didn’t realize my addiction to this bag was so severe until I looked back through my Sugarplum Style posts….I think I need a bag intervention.

The black and white stripe is a good fit for my wardrobe since I wear so much color and pattern….it really complements almost every combination. If loving this bag is wrong, then I don’t want to be right! Now, why am I rubbing this amazing bag in your face, and parading it all over this post?
Because Barrington noticed my obsession, and decided to give one of you lucky ducks your very own St. Anne’s bag! You can choose any color and pattern, and they’ll personalize it even further with your monogram! And I never carry my bag without the elephant tassel…you’re in more luck, because it’s back-in-stock, and on sale, this weekend only! Now how good is this Friday!?

Hi Sugarplum | Beach Style

 Just enter through this Rafflecopter…good luck and happy weekend, lovebugs!

Fashion Friday

July 18, 2014

Happy Friday!! I’m so excited for a weekend at home…with nothing to do, and nowhere to be! Like yours, my inbox is flooded everyday with sales and promotions, but very few peak my
interest. However, there is one sale I look forward to every year…the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale…which starts today!
I love it because it’s not picked-over, end-of-season stuff…but next
season’s must-haves…and for a few short weeks, it’s marked down A LOT!!

It may be the middle of July, but I can’t miss this opportunity to grab Fall essentials at such great prices. You guys seemed to like when I shared my real-life reviews last year, so I thought I’d do it again, just in case you’re considering any of it. My Nordstrom was already sold out of most of the things I wanted to try, but I was able to check out a few. I’ve ordered the rest online (yay for free shipping and free returns!) and will share that stuff when it arrives.

1) I can’t believe I’m doing it again, but I’m humiliating myself by posting a butt-shot on the blog. But how else are you going to see the cute pockets on these Hudson jeans? They have a good amount of stretch for a comfy fit, and there’s no gap in the back waistband (you booty girls know what I’m talking about). I’ll
still wear my skinny jeans this Fall, but I think a slight bootcut is a
bit dressier, and more flattering on curvy shapes.

I also love that these come in Petite sizing (online only). Nordstrom offers free alterations, but they’d just cut the bottom off,
which changes the line of the jeans and where they are supposed to hit
on your leg. By going with the Petite length, the bootcut starts at
the right placement on the leg. I ordered these in my regular size, but in Petite, so they should be perfect with a slight heel. If you’re considering designer jeans, now is the time since they are $70 off! Update: It looks like the petite is currently sold out…but keep checking for re-stock!

Jeans

2) I’m still completely gah-gah over my striped bag, but I’ve wanted a cognac-colored bag for the past few Fall seasons. I think this one fits the bill….especially for the price. It’s the perfect size for all my stuff, but still has good structure to it, so it won’t collapse on my arm. The lighter shade makes it perfect for pairing with any color outfit, including black. And of course I’ll slap my tassel charm on it! #duh

Bag



3) The only thing more awkward than taking butt-shots, is taking a picture of your feet!! Especially without getting funny looks from strangers. But I sacrificed my dignity in order to show you these cute booties. The heel is a flattering height, without being uncomfortably tall, and the sole is sturdy. I think they’ll be perfection with skinny jeans, and the neutral color will go with any top. My normal size was a little tight across the toe area, so I ordered one-half size up online.

Booties

 

4) I always get my kids school shoes during this sale, too…at these prices,
they aren’t much more than Target’s shoes, but they’ll actually last the
entire school year! They literally walked in this week, wearing the shoes we bought at last year’s sale. My son is all about the over-priced Nikes now, so I’m thrilled to score them for under $50! He also only wants to wear athletic gear or jeans, so we scooped up quality items like this hoodie, and these well-made jeans for $25.

Hi Sugarplum | Nordstrom Sale picks
Sweatshirt | Athletic Shorts | Tennis Shoes

5) My daughter doesn’t like to shop at all. Like seriously, not one bit. But once she caught a glimpse of herself in this ridiculously cute outfit, she decided shopping wasn’t so bad. And clearly I’ve lost my mind, because I actually bought her this pair of Hudson jeans. But she said they were as comfy as leggings, and with the sale price, they aren’t much more than Gap jeans. Don’t even get me started on the leopard hoodie and booties! I’m in trouble if she ever decides she likes to shop!

Jeans | Sweatshirt | Leopard Vest | Booties
She insisted I take a picture of her posing as me…should I be flattered or offended? Can I get this entire outfit in my size?!?

 

Hi Sugarplum | Nordstrom Sale picks

She always chooses wacky tennis shoes, so none of us were surprised when she went straight for these high-top Converse. The girl definitely has her own ideas about style…wonder where she gets that?!

I’m also scoping out holiday gifts in the Home and Beauty departments, like this Candle trio and Sawtooth Throw. And when can you get North Face for under $100? Never, that’s when. I’m taking advantage and grabbing this one for Mr. SP’s Christmas gift. Or maybe this one since it’s even less.

What are your faves? Have you grabbed anything yet? Shop fast, because the inventory won’t last long. Happy weekend, lovebugs!

{Top Ten} June

July 1, 2014

This year is officially half over. What in the?! How in the?! It’s been a fun and busy month around here, and in case
you took a really long nap (or maybe you’re just new to these parts), here’s a recap of my top posts for June.
Hi Sugarplum | Top 10 June
Colorful, cheeky art for my daughter’s room…all you need is felt and scissors!
A fresh new style for our Summer Mantel.
Baby got Showing some back in {Outfit Inspiration) Pink & Green.
Hi Sugarplum | Top 10 June
When I stage full-blown photoshoot with a new decor purchase, it usually means I’m smitten. This time it was a Moroccan Leather Pouf.
A chic Hola mat to greet your guests.
One $48 dress, styled five ways. Boom!
This nutjob and I celebrated our anniversary…so I shared our Love Story and His Proposal, in addition to our easy Date Night Style.
Hi Sugarplum | Top 10 June
Summertime means ice cream around here apparently, since I whipped up a batch of Mint Chocolate Chip, and got extra gluttonous with Ice Cream Sundae Cones.
After years of fretting over my grandparent’s rug, we finally welcomed something more our style!
And a new series was born….Sugarplum Style shows my everyday outfits.
I also shared a round-up of my favorite dresses, all under $50! Whew! That was a busy month…but you know what? June has nothing on what I’ve got planned for July! Happy Canada Day, lovebugs!

If you’re still playing
catch-up, here are some good places to start.

The Friday Five

June 6, 2014

We made it to Friday! Holla! This weekend I’m excited to have some girl time with my friends I’ve known since first grade. That is a loooooong time, but no one needs to do that math. It is so therapeutic to spend time with people who know your history, your mama, your heartaches, your triumphs, and about that time you did that thing with you-know-who at the neighborhood park. You know the kind of friends I’m talking about!! It’s safe to say we’ll get in to some debauchery. Or as much debauchery as 7 girls who likely won’t leave the house can get in to.

1) I ordered this adorable pink dress, and hope it arrives by the time I get home. I am a sucker for flirty dresses under $50!! The silhouette is flattering to all shapes, and the style is so versatile. You can easily dress it up for date nights, showers, parties, and nights on the town.

Pink & Blue
Exposed Zipper Pink Dress | Floral Sandals | Turquoise Clutch
Turquoise Earrings | Watch | Bangle Set | Sunglasses

2) Or swap out the accessories for a more casual look, and the dress transitions for work, lunch on the patio, weekend shopping with the girls, and church. Don’t you love the color, and the exposed zipper? Look for it to appear in my Sugarplum Style series soon!

Saturday Fun
Exposed Zipper Pink Dress | Jean Jacket | Straw Fedora | Sandals
Bangle Set | Watch | Tassel Necklace | Striped Monogram Bag | Bag Charm | Aviators

3) I love following along with bloggers who are building or remodeling their house…we get to enjoy all the outcomes, without the actual stresses! It was fun watching Shelley at Crazy Wonderful during their building process, and they recently moved into her gorgeous new home. She’s putting the finishing touches on the fabulous Kitchen, and I’m swooning! I wonder why I put espresso cabinets in my kitchen when white kitchens made me gasp?

4) I’m super excited to announce this little collaboration! During the month of June, I’ll be posting some of our Summer fun to my InstaGram and Twitter, as part of Staples’ #30SummerDays campaign. You can follow along with the hashtag, and post your own photo each day. Then, at the end of the month, I’ll be giving away one of these brand-new Samsung Galaxy Wi-Fi Cameras! It’s like a mini-tablet, with a kickin’ camera….basically perfect!

5) My firstborn turns 13 next month!?! What the?! How the?! I can’t even deal…but he’s already scheming and planning his party. These huge gold balloons make such a great impact for parties….and guess where I found them for only $6?! Urban Outfitters…BAM! I just ordered the 1 & 3, so maybe the cool balloons will take the sting off my baby becoming a teenager. How cute if I got them to spell out his name, too?

What are you scheming and planning these days? Happy debauchery-filled weekend, lovebugs!
