This & That of Life Lately

Buckle up, friends…today I’ve a big ol’ hodge podge of This & That, a random mixed-bag of life lately, latest finds, discount codes, and more. You’ve told me you love these round-ups, so I’m happy to share snippets of what you might have missed over on Instagram Stories. (Follow along HERE, I promise we have fun!)

Mama Sugarplum’s Glowing Skincare Routine //

I brought Mama Sugarplum to a fun Mother’s Day event recently, and as soon as I posted this pic, people went nuts asking for her skincare routine! I get it…she looks incredible, right?! And can you believe at 70 she’s never so much as had Botox! She credits Colleen Rothschild products…she’s been a hardcore fan for over a decade.

So of course I had to share her full routine…code SUGARPLUM20 will save you 20%!

Overpackers, This One’s For You //

I’m a tried-and-true carry-on girl…but every now and then, the trip calls for a little extra everything. I recently found the Bagsmart Getaway Trunk, and it’s basically a dream for overpackers! The trunk-style design makes it so easy to organize (no digging black hole situation), with tons of structured compartments, compression panels, and space for all the “just in case” outfits. It’s lightweight, smooth-rolling, and surprisingly easy to maneuver for its size…aka no wrestling your suitcase through the airport. If you like options (or outfit changes), this one’s a game-changer.

A Month of Milestones //

It’s been a big month of birthdays around here…starting with our sweet Sloan turning 20!! WHAT?! I’ve been posting on Hi Sugarplum for 15 years, so many of you have literally watched her grow up!! We also celebrated Jackson’s longtime girlfriend’s 25th, which felt just as special. Lots of cake, lots of dinners, and all the reasons to pause and soak it in…these growing-up years really do fly.

Lake Look-for-Less //

If you love the look of Lake pajamas but not the price tag, I found a true gem at Walmart! Same classic prints, soft cotton feel, and that easy, polished look Lake is known for. I grabbed a pair to try and can confirm—they’re just as soft, comfy, and cute as you’d hope. A great little $15 find if you want that elevated sleepwear vibe without the splurge.

Travel MVPs //

A few of those random little travel finds that earn their spot in my bag every single trip. Not the flashy stuff, but the kind that makes travel feel easier, more organized, and a whole lot less chaotic.

Book Club //

I just finished Theo of Golden and absolutely loved it. Such a sweet, wholesome story…one of those books you don’t want to rush through. I found myself reading it slowly, savoring every chapter with Theo, and honestly a little sad when it ended. If you’re in the mood for something gentle and feel-good, this one is a gem.

Amazed by Amazon //

I stumbled on a new workout wear brand on Amazon that honestly feels and looks so similar to Lululemon. The fabric is that buttery-soft, holds-you-in (but not suffocating) kind, and the fit is super flattering. I’ve worn it for workouts and just running around, and it holds up beautifully. Such a great find if you love elevated activewear but don’t always want to pay the premium.

Aspen with LTK //

I was invited to Aspen recently for the LTK Creator Summit, and it was such a fun mix of work and mountain time with my love. I shared a full recap HERE, with peeks of what I wore, the special dinners, and even savoring the last day of ski season!

Luka On Sale…Finally! //

My absolute go-to personal bag for travel is the Calpak Luka Duffle…aka my “Mary Poppins bag” because it somehow holds so much. It fits under the seat, keeps everything organized, and still manages to look cute doing it. I never travel without it, and it’s actually on sale right now, which basically never happens!

New from Spanx //

New colors and styles just dropped from Spanx and they are so good. Their activewear is that perfect mix of supportive and flattering, with fabrics that feel polished enough to wear beyond the gym. I’ve been reaching for mine on repeat lately, so I’m excited to see fresh pieces for the season. And if you’re new to Spanx, code CASSIEXSPANX saves first-time shoppers.

Spring Breaking //

In case you missed it, I shared our full Anguilla trip recap with where we stayed, ate, and everything in between—it’s all linked HERE if you’re planning a getaway or just want a dose of sunshine.

Weekend Day Dates //

Mr. SP and I are leaning into this new season of freedom and started doing weekend day dates around town…and it’s been so much fun. We’ve been discovering new spots, trying restaurants we’ve never been to, and just enjoying a slower pace together. It’s such a sweet little shift, and honestly something I’m really looking forward to each week.

Poolside Picks //

New swim styles and coverups from Cupshe just landed, and they’re so good for the price. Think flattering fits, pretty prints, and easy pieces you can mix and match for vacation or pool days. I’ve been really impressed with the quality lately—such a great option when you want a fresh swim update without a splurge.

Krazy for Kiziks //

Kizik dropped a new style and I’m instantly smitten! Their signature hands-free design means you can just step in and go (no bending, no fuss), and the new Siena style is especially lightweight with a clean, minimal look that works with everything. Super comfortable right out of the box and perfect for travel when you want something easy, supportive, and still chic. And code CASS15 saves us 15% off!

Did Someone Say Summer Travel? //

Y’all must have big summer travel plans, because the requests for shoes are coming in hot!! Along with the Siena sneakers, I’d also pack these sandals. They’re affordable, super comfortable, and the kind of neutral style that goes with everything in your suitcase. I wore them all over Europe a couple summers ago—miles of cobblestone streets, endless steps—and they held up beautifully. If you’re building out your travel shoe lineup, these are essential.

Unplugged by the Water //

Snuck away for a girls weekend at the lake and it was just what we all needed. Lots of sunshine, long chats, slow mornings, and not much else on the agenda. We unplugged a bit, soaked it all in, and left feeling so refreshed. Those kinds of weekends are always good for the soul.

My Latest Amazon Cart //

Amazon Hauls continue to be the most popular posts each month, and my latest was no exception! But hello… look how cute all these styles are!! See my latest finds HERE and my try-on HERE.
