Saturdays At Shop This: It's All About Paris


Paris Fashion Week will be wrapping up this weekend. If you have been following, you haven't been disappointed. The fashion is fab. Head to Vogue Runway to see the Spring 2020 styles and shows. If you just can't get enough fashion, you can purchase the above limited edition illustration from artist,  Tiffany La Belle by clicking HERE. In honor of the beauty of Paris, this post is all about Parisian chic. Enjoy these lovely links.


Fave Find Of The Week: Vintage French Umbrellas straight from a Paris Flea Market. Aren't they fabulous? Read about their story at Jayson Home, where they just had a fabulous vintage drop. And you can save 15% on anything in their Fall catalog with Code: 15FORFALL

Chanel: For color cosmetics and fine fragrances, you can't beat Chanel beauty. Shop it or any beauty brand at Barney's New York and receive your choice of complimentary men's dopp kit or a women's bag both filled with tons of samples. Just spend $200 in beauty, fragrance or skincare. Everything
ships for free.

Destination Swaddle: Need a baby gift for your favorite Francophile? This Paris Swaddle Blanket has all of the French feels. So so cute!Anthropologie

Croissants: Is anything more quintessentially French than a buttery croissant? I remember my first one in Paris. Now you don't have to fly to France for this treat thanks to Authentic Gourmet at QVC. They are actually made in France and shipped to your door. Take your pick from Butter, Chocolate, or Savory.  Mmmmmmm!

Pop that Bubbly! And serve it the Vintage French Champagne Buckets. I think that they are wonderful. Such a gorgeous gift! Use them for floral arrangements or fill them with guest towels in the powder room.

Roger Vivier Footwear: Add instant glamour to any look with the French brand's iconic jewel buckle. If you look at any archival images of Jackie Kennedy and Grace Kelly in the ‘50s and ‘60s, it's likely they’re wearing a pair of Roger Vivier’s shoes. Shop the collection at Saks.

I love the saying "Just say yes, and figure it out later." These "oui" pillows handcrafted by individual artisans, say it all! Shop them at Society 6.

Karl Lagerfeld Paris: This is the destination for Karl's designs that are actually affordable. It's a good time to shop the website as everything is 25% off with Code: 25KARL.
I found a few good pieces like these gold toe Sneakers, loving this Notched Color Houndstooth Blazer, and if you are a tee shirt girl, this Lagerfeld Paris tee with sunglasses is quite chic. Cute under a blazer.

No matter where in the world you are this weekend, stop for a minute and make a memory.

Foodie Friday: Tailgate Recipes & More


Ready for some football? Whether you are or not, chances are your spouses are. For many like myself, eating and drinking in Fall's cool crisp air, is even more fun than the game itself. Chips and burgers are fine, but why not wow your crowd with something creative? I promise that this recipe roundup will score big with 
football fans. 





The Best Bloody Mary Bar
If you are starting early, like the most die hard fans do, a Bloody Mary is a must. Make it a bar, and you now have everyone's attention. Your guests are interacting and serving themselves. It's a win win for everyone. This article gives you great tips on making the best bloodies ever!
Williams Sonoma Taste

Baked Sweet Potato Parmesan Tater Tots
These tempting treats begin as mashed sweet potatoes and turn into a real crowd pleaser! The secret to their deliciousness is rolling the mashed potatoes in panko 
bread crumbs!
Half Baked Harvest

Annoyingly Addicting Bourbon
 Apple Fritters
These fab fritters have bourbon in the dough and in the glaze. Just what a tailgater wants. The more booze the merrier. I have to admit, I had an apple fritter last weekend, but without the bourbon. I can only imagine....
Broma Bakery

Pumpkin Queso Fundido
What an indulgent treat that is sure to be a crowd pleaser.  It's up to you if you allow
 double dipping! 
How Sweet Eats


Tailgate Table Accessories
If game day is your theme, these accessories score big!
Fancy Celebration

Slow Cooker Pulled Pork Nachos
Citrus infused pork shoulder is a crowd pleaser. Put this together the night before in your slow cooker. Assemble the day of. Impressive, right?
Hy-Vee

Crispy Blackberry Honey Jalapeno 
Chicken Wings
Am I the only person you know that has never had a chicken wing? They are just "eewww" to me. But I know that they are a stadium staple for hungry fans. If I were to make them, it would be this recipe. Their gorgeous color and tart and sticky honey sweet taste, really step up this football classic.  PS. The wings are made with gluten-free flour.
Heather Christo

Cheese "Burker" Sliders & Samuel Adams Ketchup
You have to love a recipe that is made with four bottles of lager! Recipe by David Burke so you know it must be good. Sliders are fun and easier to eat standing up. Going the extra mile with the pickle and tomato makes these 
extra special.
Tailgate Magazine

Bourbon Pecan Fudge Brownies
I like the way the recipe author thinks. She and I both consider bourbon always a good substitute for vanilla. And like a good bourbon, these tasty treats get better with age. So feel free to make them ahead of game day.
Love and Olive Oil

Mini Chili Bowl Bites
Another easy to eat recipe. Aren't they the cutest? What you see is a pretzel bite hollowed out with a melon baller. Clever!
Bakers Royale

Olympia Provisions Football Summer Sausage
Here's center stage for your next game day cheese board. It's also the best host gift you can bring to any football celebration.
Isn't it great?
Food52

Apple Butter Old Fashioned
This cocktail just screams Fall. If you want to class up your game day experience, serve these.
Half Baked Harvest

Oh how cute! Remember the Itty Bitty Bag edit? This should have been added. It's faux but fabulous, and only sold at .....

Floral Print Blouse
Fall florals are everywhere this year. I am not always a fan, but when you make them dark and sexy, count me in. The ruffles and sheerness add a feminine flair.
Topshop

Livin' In This Cardi
They say that we will want to live in this cardigan, and I can believe it. Pretty in lavender but also available in cream and grey. It's soft and cozy and the perfect layer for the new season. And anything with a drape is so on trend.

At 59 degrees this morning, Mother Nature has served up a perfect Fall day in Chicago. We begin the "Shop This" household's favorite season. It's time to turn the page, and get excited about cocoa and cashmere, and coats and candles. This post features all of the feels we love about Fall. Enjoy!


Karma Travel Scarf
If you aren't a plaid person, this ombre use of colors just may be your style. It's an unexpected use of soft Fall-ish colors. And the weight is the perfect light layer as we transition to the 
new season.

Walk into Fall with the best transitional shoes. Not quite a boot, and definitely not a sandal.....they are the perfect pair for all of your fall outfits.
Club Monaco


Your Fall Nail Color
Every Fall I try a new color as my "go to" for manicures. Lucky for me neutrals never go out of style, but they are particularly in this autumn. Essie's newest shade, "Easily Suede," is a warm grey with taupe undertones. This is what I am trying for this weeks' mani.

A Luxe Coat
A good coat is a wardrobe changer, and a forever piece. The outerwear edit at Intermix is one of the best. You'll find chic coats and all of the accessories to wear with them. Click the image or the below link to start shopping.

Oh the scents of Fall! Aren't they just the best? Now that Henri Bendel is gone, I am on the hunt for new candles. Nest makes luxury scents that burn clean and last long. The Pumpkin Chai scent is fab! It's a mix of wild pumpkin, spicy chai, cardamon, ginger, and cinnamon.
