Saturdays At Shop This: Sweet Things

Well, we made it through another Covid19 week. Much like the others, it was filled with images of violence, despair, inequality, and Mother Nature's wrath. I was so happy to see this sweet photo (above)  on my Instagram feed today. It's Katy Perry's baby announcement. Her first child, Daisy Dove, entered the world this week, and Katy had the sweetest manicure.  Today's post is meant to replace all of the negative images in your own mind with sweet things. Enjoy!

 
Introducing a New Baby to the Family Dynamic: Besides Katy, I know two new moms, Kate and Allie, that have given birth in the last 3 weeks. This subject is important. Share these great tips with someone in your life that may need it.

Sweet Treat: An apple a day keeps the doctor away. Make them chocolate covered, and life becomes a little sweeter. Mrs. Prindable's now has a Pumpkin Spice variety. A lovely gift to send across the miles. It's also a perfect teacher gift.

Miranda Kerr on Her Debut Furnishings Collection: The model turned entrepreneur states about her furnishings: "I strive to create and design products with positive intention that can hopefully uplift and inspire.” I found her furnishings positively delightful. And the pretty pops of pink were sweet and stylish.

The Sweetest Scent ever has to be that of a newly bathed baby. The Baby Detergent by The Laundress has the best scent. It's a sweet powdery blend that is allergy free and gentle of baby's skin. Select products are sale and ship for free from Nordstrom. To shop the entire line and save 25% on Fall faves, shop the products at

Cake: The ultimate sweet treat in my book. It's Food52's 11th birthday, and they want us to eat cake!  Here are 11 low key, one bowl cakes we all can bake. Think Olive Oil Cake, Simple Pistachio Almond Cake, an easy Apple Cake,
and more.

Sweet Feet:  I'd like to be walking into the weekend in these booties. They are the perfect shoe/boot for transitioning into Fall. Though not inexpensive, they certainly are fabulous.

Sweet Sentiments Beaded Bracelet: These sweet bracelets give hope to young ladies with words like "all good," "courage," and more. A great little off to school gift at Anthropologie.

And speaking of off to school, the new MaisonMe collection at Maisonette is truly the sweetest. With over fifty mix and matchable options, these styles will put your child at the head of the class.

Sweet Tooth: Sugar is the ultimate sweetness, and I must admit I love it. I do know that sugar does not like me. I found this article interesting and helpful: Overcoming Sugar Addiction & How To Fix It

So sweet: the children's masks at Hanna Andersson. They mix and match with the clothing. Think trucks, dinos, stars, stripes and more. 
They make very cute gifts.

Even More Fabulous Face Masks

Depending on where you live, masks are now a "must wear" indoors and outdoors, when you can't social distance at least six feet. For us in Chicago, that means if we aren't home, we wear them. Period. I find that I am tiring of my mini mask collection. They are fun, but not exactly pretty or stylish, like the Collina Strada mask above. If you are looking for something with pizazz, this post
 is for you.
