Saturdays At Shop This

  
{ Via: Zsazsa Bellagio }

Last weekend was a whirlwind. This weekend is as low key as it gets. Thank goodness! Today's weekend wrap up features interesting reads (a Day in The life of Victoria Beckham,) links to the best sales (25% off at Stuart Weitzman,) Etsy finds like beautiful Montessori toys and more. Enjoy it all.



Chic Ceramics: I fell in love with the modern home decor and pretty pottery at this Etsy Shop, SIND Studio. I think you will, too.


Disco Ball Pumpkins: I am not a big Halloween decor person. However, I could get down with these disco themed pumpkins from Etsy. Fun for a party.


Spice Girl Goals:  A good read about a day in the life of Victoria Beckham.  It includes warm lemon water, a glass or two of red wine, spicy seeds and nuts, and her fabulous clothing and skincare.

How To Apply Eyeshadow: If you don't wear eye makeup, maybe it's because you aren't confident in knowing how to do it. This informative article really spells it out for you with step by step directions, photos, and product suggestions.

Beauty Buys at Bloomingdale's: Take $20 off every $150 you spend. It's good on almost all beauty.

New Digs: Welcome home to Banana Republic's new home store, BR Home. They say it best: "A celebration of traditional craftsmanship and exceptional materials, brought to life in natural textures and modern designs." I could do this. It reminds me a bit of Restoration Hardware. 

For your little loves:  The Best Montessori Toys For All Ages via Etsy

Fall Footwork: Stuart Weitzman is offering 25% off Full Price Styles. Loving the booties this season. Use Code: FALLFAVES25

Cinq a Sept stunning: I had so much fun looking at the Cinq a Sept collection at Bergdorf Goodman last weekend. It's all so fun! And much of it is on sale or 25% off this weekend.

All About Coffee: Recipes & More

Let me begin by saying that I am not a coffee drinker. Wish I was. If you add a little liquor to it, and top it with crema or whipped cream, you could twist my arm. But today, on "National Coffee Day," I am giving us all a little caffeine fix with recipes that promise to perk you up.


Espresso Martini
Let's start with a cocktail, shall we? I am not a martini drinker, but the night I tried one of these, I had two and a half. It consists of cold espresso, vodka, Kahlua, and honey vanilla syrup, Cheers!

Caramel Frappuccino
Heavy cream, coffee, and caramel sauce. Sounds like the triple threat, and a Starbucks moment at home.
Recipe Rebel


Florentine Chocolate Tart With Coffee Meringue
Is this not an elegant dish? That pastry crust looks amazing.

Coffee Brown Sugar Bourbon Rib Roast
I am putting a pin in this recipe for the holidays ahead. It's a special and well seasoned dish with a crackley crust. Just Yum!

Nespresso Machines
If you have been wanting one, now's the time. Bloomie's has some on sale with an additional 20% off. The full price models will also be 20% off at checkout. We loved ours. Shop soon. The sale is over this Sunday.

Coconut Iced Coffee…with Mini Chocolate Glazed Coffee Doughnuts
Have you ever? This coffee and those little donuts almost look too good to eat!
Half Baked Harvest

Rice Pudding Tiramisu
This looks and sounds decedant, doesn't it? It's rice pudding and tiramisu turned into a pie. How deliciously clever! The coffee can be found in the ladyfingers which have been soaked in it. It's all topped off with a heaping layer of mascarpone whipped cream.

Chocolate Coffee Ice Cream Coffee Cake
Oh my! The crust of this cake is brownies!!! This is a celebration cake if I ever saw one.

Coffee Pancakes
Here's an eye opener for breakfast or dinner! The pancakes are said to be tender and studded with mini chocolate chips. Then there is that coffee glaze! This a real treat. 

Maple & Coffee Glazed Bacon
All I can say is WOW! This recipe really takes bacon to another level. You bake the finest cut of bacon you can get your hands on. Thick cut is best, and it's my favorite. Perfect for your brunch set up, too. This is a must make.


Coffee Caramelized Croissant French Toast Sticks
Words can't really describe these French Toast Sticks. So I will just let you sit there and drool for a minute :)

Dolce&Gabbana
Moka Machine 6-Cup Coffee Maker
Don't we all need one of these? It's g great gift for a coffee, design and fashion lover.

Spiced Coffee and Chocolate Mousse
Chocolate Mousse happens to be my very favorite dessert. I have not tried this recipe. However, I do know that coffee enhances the flavor of chocolate. Sounds like a delicious flavor duo.

Chain Reaction: Fall 2023 Bag Trend


Admitingly I am not one to go crazy over handbags. Give me a chic clutch and I am happy. Of all the bag trends for this season, the chain bags are my favorite. Silver or gold, they are all beautifully bold! Here's 12 styles to carry all season.



Liselle Kiss Taylor Bag
A new designer to me, but I love the price point. 
It's all leather, and comes with both a leather and chain handle, plus a detachable crossbody strap. A very ladylike look.

Rebecca Minkoff Edie Collection
Woven and wonderful! The exagerated quilted leather and chain detailing  create a modern but chic bag.  Find them at for 25% off at....


Zac Posen Convertible Crossbody
I like this bag. It's a nice size and all leather. The fact that you can wear it multiple ways.  It is a value at 30% off.

Kara Handbags
These bags are not for everyone, but I love them. You will find a stylish selection here, and they are majorly marked down. Oh! And red bags are also having their day this season.

Leopard Print Calf Hair Shoulder Bag
I think by now, we all agree that leopard print is a  neutral. And I don't think it is ever going out of style. This bag is 25% off and under $250.

Brandon Blackwood Mini Bag
Another new name to me, but I am glad that I found it. Made from ruched leather with the chunkiest chain. I also love the price at $285.

Inka Mini Bag
It's vintage inspired and made from marbelized acrylic. It will be your dress up bag for every outfit.

JW Anderson Chain Hobo Bag
This style is so good, it's almost sold out everywhere.
Bergdorf Goodman    and    
Shopbop


Fiona Beaded Bag Chain Edition
This bag sparkles with style. Loving the oversized chain, and the ability to tuck it uner your arm. It will work for dressy or casual. Fun to wear with a pair of metallic kitten heels and denim. $110

Alexis Bittar Punk Royale Clutch
This beautiful bag is truly jewelry for your hand! In this design the chain is made from crystals. Also available in black

Skip Tote Patent Pink
Pink for fall? Oh yes, and you can thank Barbie for this. Imagine this bag up against a black or grey coat, or even burgundy. What I like most is the quiet tortoise chain link. Also available in black and leopard print.

See By Chloe Mara Evening Bag
Not sure why this is called an evening bag. I think it can be worn day and night. It's fabulous. Don't you think?
