Saturdays At Shop This

{ Via Moda Operandi }

Let's take a break from  January's chill, and enjoy some sunset hues.  I sure miss my sunset cocktail on the terrace.  Soon, right? Until then, let's dream a little, and warm up with these links.  

Zimmermann creates the best resort collections. This year's is no exception. This is the Wanderlust Dress. It's all pricy, but as I said.....a girl can dream. 

You won't fear the fine print with Look Optic's "Linda" Progressive Readers.  Loving the look of the shiny tortoise, but they are also available in other colors.Still love my Keaton's, but these are tempting.  They are so well made, and 25% off this weekend.

Getting away? Nothing says "island girl" better than a sarong. This one is super pretty and really great with a black swimsuit.  Easy to pack. too.

Perfect for Spring Soirees. This Zimmermann style will make an entrance!

My younger self would be all about these pretty platforms. My current self is, too, but my knees would not be. Find them HERE

Creamy White Chicken Chili

I have made this twice this fall and winter. Though I never follow a recipe exactly. Tiegan, of Half Baked Harvest, always brings the flavor in her recipes. A good choice for Super Bowl Sunday.

Romantic Ruffles. A good look for a casually chic  date. The Abely blouse is 100% organic cotton. From Sezane Paris

Enjoy delicate genuine gemstone and pearl jewelry? You will love the creations of Joie & Lily.  The founder, designer, and creater is a friend of mine, Nicole. She would take excellent care of your order. These bracelets alone or as a stack, would make a lovely Valentine's Day Gift. Currently everything is 25% off.

Festive Finds To Trick Out Your Look

A Taste Of Fall At Anthropologie

 

Anthropologie is one of my happy places. Walking through the door of their stores immediately elevates the spirit. A few minutes spent on their website has the same results. Their fall collection is spirited and stylish. Here's some of my favorite looks. 

Maeve Blazer & Faux Leather Skirt

A belted blazer is something new. The cut work on the leather midi skirt is quite unusual and wonderful. A fabulous look!

Pilcro Long-Line Cable Tunic Sweater

Form and fashion. An unusual piece that will get you noticed. Loving the sharp contrast when worn over anything black.

Long Cardigan

What a great piece for fall layering. I would even like it belted.

Bibi Lou Varsovia Boots

Oh what fun! I would wear these with everything. Metallics are having a major moment again this Fall. These are a shining example of the trend.

Way F Pleated Trousers
I was surprised to see so many pleated trousers offered at Anthropologie. But I am here for them. Love that they are lined. Click the photo or link above to see the entire look.

Wyeth Pillbox Beret

This look never seems to go out of style. It's a great accessory, especially with a midas touch of gold.

Maeve Barrel Boots
My perfect boot. A pointy toe and a manageable 2" heel. Simple but stylish.

Velvet By Graham & Spencer Poncho

I just love poncho weather.  This style is full of fall flavor. Made in a wool cotton blend.

Avec Les Filles Leather Moto Jacket
With a Paris meets LA aesthetic, this jacket has a super modern vibe. Just the thing to wear with a silky slip dress.

By Anthropologie Faux Leather Midi

Faux can be fabulous, and so much more practical. This style comes in standard, petite, and plus sizes.

Back Bow Sweatshirt

I love a good sweatshirt. And this style is super cute. The bow elevates the basic.

Le Superbe Modernist Slip Dress

Fabulous fall hues create an effortless look. Love this with a blazer as shown or even with a leather jacket.

Slouchy Oversized Leather Tote

The perfect bag for the commuter or traveller. The green is gorgeous and unexpected. It also is avialable in black.

Shine Kimono Sweater

Cuddle up and get cozy for fall. This comfy chic cardigan will be your "go to" this season.

Sale Styles That Go From Summer To Fall

Saturdays At Shop This: Motherhood

{ Via: ZsaZsa Bellagio }

Most Mothers aren't royal, and most children don't marry a prince, but motherhood is filled with moments like the above. My own daughter was hell on wheels at home, but I could have taken her for tea with the Queen, and she would have been the perfect child. Today's links feature a little something for every type of Mom.

Time-Saving Hacks from #Momlife.

If your Mom has everything she could ever want, (really?) make a donation to No Kid Hungry in her name. Every $50 dollars you give can provide up to 500 meals for a child who is facing hunger. Best yet, you still have time to do this. Mom will be so proud of you.

Homemade Playdough Recipe For Mom's out of ideas on how to entertain the kids. I made it all of the time. Two thoughts I would add. 1) Don't use toxic and messy food coloring. Here's a recipe for Natural Food Coloring. 2) Add some vanilla or almond extract, to make it smell as enticing as the real thing.
