Weekend Wrap Up


It's Easter Weekend, so I am wrapping up the week a day early. There are eggs to dye and hide, lemon cheesecake to create, and tables to set. I hope that you have good holiday things happening, too. Enjoy this roundup of stylish sales, fashion finds, and interesting articles. 



One of the best sales of the weekend is at Banana Republic. Save 30% on full priced fashion and accessories for men and women. They have done a great job this season. This jumpsuit is my fave.

Another great sale is at Anthropologie. Save 30% on in-stock furniture, decor, bedding and more. There are over 650 home products in the sale.

I mentioned last week that I ordered Charlotte Tilbury's Beautiful Skin Radiant Concealer. It's even more lovely under my eyes than on my hand when I tested it! I took Fair 4.0 for under my eyes. Couldn't be happier!


Velvet shoes for spring? When they are this pretty, and a mule, why not? But if velvet is not your thing, Mystique crystal sandals and flip flops are so fabulous. You will love them!

People Who Live The Longest Swear By These Nine Rules. Loved this article, especially the part about wine.

You can count on Nordstrom to always have a Beauty Sale. This weekend you will find over 1,000 products on sale from MAC, Lancome, Kiehl's and more.


One of my favorite pieces this spring: 
Cinq à Sept's Summer Love Blazer. It's both pretty and unique. Get it on limited time sale at  Bloomingdale's.

I just bought the most beautiful black and gold disposable dishes from Smarty Had A Party at Etsy. They are substantial and luxurious looking. 

I purchased my first fashion accessory on Amazon last week. It just may be my new fave. This Mini Belt & Crossbody Bag looks luxe. I am going back for the white one. Ms. Shop This asked me if it was Chanel. Under $20. 


Pavillion Paper has the most unusal and pretty  paper goods. They are perfect for mixing and matching. Truly chic designs!


I love the look of a kaftan, but I currently don't own one. Cynthia Rowley's Calypso Kaftan with built in jewelry is a chic option.

Happy Easter To Those Who Celebrate!
