Saturday Shopping

September 26, 2026 by Courtney Leave a Comment

Good morning. It feels really good to be working on Saturday Shopping from home this weekend. I’ve been gone most weekends in September so waking up in my own bed felt great. And it’s chilly out today! I’ll take it. It’s starting to feel like sweater weather which is wonderful. If you need us you’ll find us in comfy clothes watching college football today. But before that, grab a cozy cup of coffee or tea and let’s do some Saturday Shopping together.

THIS JUST IN

This jacket just arrived and I LOVE it so much. It’s a 10/10 in my book. I love the contrasting collar and the fit. It’s so pretty. Now 30% off. More of an investment piece but one that is classic.

*Will be really cute with these $40 jeans. And this suede bag is so similar to the one above. I love carrying it for fall (can’t beat the price).

The gold zippers elevate this quilted jacket so much. I can’t wait to wear it this fall. It’s machine washable, too. It’s true to size ( I have the 4 . . .it’s a tailored fit).

NORDSTROM RACK

pants

These surprised me so much. I love them so much. The fit is fantastic and they are so comfortable. True to size and fun for fall.

These adorable jeans caught my eye. The pretty gold detail and front seam is so pretty.

handbag

This is another win from Nordstrom Rack. This purse is so pretty. Great lines and more than 50% off what it was when Nordstrom first carried it. Love that.

This leather handbag is beautiful. I often carry this size and really like the curved flap on this. It’s ideal when you just carry the essentials.

J.CREW FACTORY

Riley and I love this coat so much. We both like the flattering fit and the gold buttons. It’s on sale with an extra 30% off (when you spend over $150 with code: NEWSEASON). This is the coat I wear most during the holiday season, too.

I have the navy version of this but saw someone wearing this version with light denim. A great combination. On sale and very soft. True to size . . . I bought the small.

LOTS OF COMPLIMENTS

white coat

I’ll have Riley take a photo of this but she LOVES it. It’s so darling and she is already getting compliments on it. The white is striking but it comes in a handful of colors. Looks designer but without the price.

Riley and I both have this in brown. It’s a FANTASTIC purse. I honestly use it daily. The inside pouch is so useful for keeping things organized. Anthro also sells this purse but the Amazon one is almost identical.

CASHMERE AT WALMART

Walmart is now carrying cashmere and 100% cotton pieces. This sweater is BEAUTIFUL. It comes in so many colors and this is a great price for cashmere. Well done, Walmart. I just bought the gray for Riley. The reviews on this sweater are WONDERFUL.

Another darling sweater from Walmart. Love this Henley style. This is making me so excited for sweater weather.

black dress

I just noticed that this dress now comes in a beautiful cranberry color which would be perfect for Thanksgiving. I LOVE this dress and often wear it with a sweater over my shoulders. It’s a good one, girls.

EVEREVE

Ladies, I ordered this dress. I’m shocked myself. It’s so out of my comfort zone but I think it’s so fun for date night. I’m picturing it with a suede jacket or leather jacket. It’s fun and different. But I’ll keep you posted once I try it on!

This bomber jacket is so pretty. I love the pop of red. It also comes in a brown. Cute cut on this for sure. (And if game day includes red I would jump on this).

TUCKERNUCK

Eek. I think this is so pretty and fun. And just different. Love this whole look. The skirt comes in three colors. This would be beautiful for the holiday season.

This dress is classic and the plum is so lovely. You could add fun jewelry or a scarf for added styling. This would look darling with boots, too. Great layering dress.

This candle warmer is so pretty. My son gave me one and I LOVE using it because you aren’t worried about the candle being lit. These make for wonderful gifts, too.

A friend of mine reached out and wants to surprise her college freshman daughter with a gift. I suggested this bag. It’s on Riley’s wishlist and I just think they are so cute. There are a ton of color combinations.

fall stems

These fall stems are on sale this weekend. LOVE THEM SO MUCH. They are substantial with long stems (of course you can cut or bend them). So pretty and a very impactful addition for fall. I use three stems. They are gorgeous in person.

LOVE THIS TREE

christmas tree

Christmas is still three months away but I was just asked about our basement tree. It’s a beautiful tree. We love it so much we keep it naked. If you are looking for a well lit, charming tree this is it. The shape looks so natural and it brings us so much joy during the holiday season. I’m in the minority because I don’t care for the trees that sparkle/blink. For some reason I find them really distracting. If you are like me, this is a great choice.

Are you hosting Thanksgiving? If so these are so pretty. They add great texture to your table. Our dear friend used these for the rehearsal dinner and they added so much charm.

vacuum

A heads up that my beloved vacuum/mop is on sale. I will be using this today. It takes me 20 minutes to do all of our wood floors. You don’t have to vacuum or swiffer before mopping and it does a fantastic job. The trick is to use the self-cleaning mode and then remove the parts that are removable, rinse, and let air dry. Easy peasy and keeps the mop looking/operating like new.

I had a couple of you reach out this week asking about the spill proof water bottle and this is it. Riley loves it because she can toss it in her book bag and there is no fear of it spilling.

If you are wanting to warm up your pillows for fall, this color block pillow cover is so pretty and an incredible price. They look high end in person. I have the Vintage Walnut color. Mine are 22″ and were less than $30 for 2!

WELCOME IN

These linen wreath sashes are really pretty. And you can add a monogram. Love this to welcome guests to your home.
