Saturdays At Shop This

{ Via Cult Gaia }

This week flew by just like all of the others in August. The Labor Day Sales have already begun. You'll find a few featured here. More to come next week. We are going with brown as our color theme today. And though it never has been my favoite color, it's big for fall, and it is growing on me. Enjoy these links, articles, and fun finds.


Candle Chic: This Etsy candle maker was featured in the Host Gift post earlier this week. I adore their sculptural and affordable designs! Do yourself a favor and take a look at their shop, Marney Ash, from New York.

Tennis Anyone? Town & Country Mag has the Ultimate Guide To Attending the U.S. Open. How exciting would that be? By the way, I followed their link, and there are plenty of tickets available.

For your outdoor entertaining: This Round White & Bamboo Melamine Platter is a steal for under $14! Pick it up at Crate & Barrel.



Head Scarves for fall are a thing! And why not?  Queen Elizabeth was often seen wearing one for casual events. I think it is another chic way to accessorize. Anthropologie is offering a set of two for $38. Pick your prints.

Bloomies on Sale: Buy more and save more at Bloomingdale's this weekend. Save Up to 25% sitewide. Worth a look.

From Transplants to Tints: Your Guide To Fuller Brows: By the way, I swear by MAC'S Big Boost Fiber Gel. It tames and colors at the same time. It's all about that brush. I use shade FLING for my highlighted blond hair. It is a tad darker than the sample looks


Cheers to the weekend and this sale bar cart. It's a little bit funky and very mid-century modern. A great size for small spaces, too. On sale for $319.

No more bad hair days thanks to Jennifer Aniston's longtime hairdresser, Chris Mcmillan. He has his own clean hair product line debuting at Sephora. Read his story HERE, and buy his products at Sephora, Thank you, Sara, for this tip!

Does Mama need a brand new bag? This leather handbag shop on Etsy offers beautiful bags for the fraction of the cost. And the styles you won't see anywhere else. I LOVE the first bag shown.


Fun with stripes! One of my favorite designers for fun and unique styles is Simon Miller. He is all about brown for the new season.....even with peek-a-boo cutouts!

Sweater Weather: It will be here soon enough. Found this very feminine Bow Cardigan at Neiman Marcus. Isn't it so pretty? 

Save 25% sitewide at Bobbi Brown Cosmetics!  Her All Nudes Eyeshadow Palette is perfection for a natural eye look!




Bag "it". Top handles and crossbody bags are trending for fall. This Cult Gaia Kazia Nano bag goes both ways. I may like my tee shirts basic, but I want a bag that stands out. This one is outstanding! Save 20% at Bloomingdales.

Have A Beautiful Weekend, Friends!

A Wardrobe Staple: The Long Sleeve Tee

I think we all want to hang unto summer as long as we can. But here in The Hudson Valley, we have needed long sleeves all week.  With one month to go until fall is official, these shirts can be worn now and layered for the next season.  Though these are wardrobe staples, each one offers something special like, fabric content, color, pattern, or details like covered buttons.
