Good morning! I was up with the sun today which felt nice. I am in a new book club and it was so nice to enjoy an hour of reading before anyone else was awake. Are you a Kristin Hannah fan? I love her books and am currently reading Winter Garden. Grab a cup of tea or coffee and let’s do some Saturday Shopping together.
SPANX BEST SELLER
I get it now. So many of you have raved about this Spanx set (top and bottom) and I finally know what you’re talking about. It’s velvety soft and such a great fit. Perfect for any day of the week but also really great for travel days. I LOVE it. I had been wearing this one from Amazon (I really do like it) but my husband gifted me this set for Christmas. I would say the difference is the material and the better fit in the booty area. It just has a bit more tailoring that makes it very flattering. Hard to see in this photo but I’m sold and can honestly recommend the splurge.
I do have this set in black and really love it. It’s under $40 and I wear it so often in the warmer months. It’s a cute one to wear around the house or run errands in but you still feel pulled together. I really like this coffee color.
My daughter’s favorite set comes in this pretty mocha color. Love this, especially with the black bag.
FOR THE TEENAGERS/COLLEGE GIRLS
- Tiny Tags Heart necklace – love Tiny Tags and this is just $25
- pink water bottle – my daughter really likes this brand of bottle
- heart pajamas – adorable (this Amazon set is also cute)

I’ll be adding these ruffle socks to my daughter’s care package. She LOVES this style and you can’t beat the $10 price tag. Yes, please.
Spotted these on Amazon and thought they were really cute.
FAVORITE LEGGINGS
When I mentioned that I did a deep purge of my closet, a few of you asked about workout clothes. I am not the girl with a huge workout wardrobe. I just don’t see the need to have one million outfits. Having said that, I definitely have my favorites and the leggings I kept were these from Vuori. I honestly adore them. They are such a nice weight, stay put and I love the tie waistband. To me, these are worth the extra money. I wear these every day for my walk and then for my workout.
LOVE IS IN THE AIR
Love this with the one pale pink heart.
Darling heart sweater. I really like the cut on this. It reminds me of the Amazon one I love so much (but without the heart). My daughter borrows it all the time. I noticed it’s currently 23% off!
In love with this sweater. I should have taken a photo wearing it yesterday. I have the same one with the horseshoe on it. Such a good sweater. Go with your usually size or size up if you want it a little looser. Beautiful color. (The lines on it are from the coming in the window). The color is much brighter (as shown here) then on the website. It’s so much more vivid and pretty in person.
What a beautiful ring. Love the style of this.
DENIM TO TAKE A LOOK AT
These are sure cute. Loft runs large so I always go down one size. On sale for $61.
These jeans are $50 and so cute. They have wonderful reviews.
I recently shared the larger version of this in black, but this size is great, too. It comes in three colors and has wonderful reviews.
CUTEST EVER
What??? This is so darn cute. It also comes in white and blue (very serena and lily). This could be an art cart, used in a nursery, really anywhere. So darn good.
A friend of mine has this sofa and it’s beautiful. I am considering one for our basement. Love the wood frame and the higher corner pillows. It comes in three colors and is on sale.
IN THE KITCHEN
Sort of a funny story to share. We bought this back in 2022 and used it maybe 5 times. I just didn’t the hype. Fast forward to my son having a major sweet tooth but also wanting more protein. I was determined to ditch store bought ice cream and make our own for him. Holy smokes!!! Apparently I wasn’t respinning it enough. This machine is magic. We are now hooked and he loves being able to eat an entire container of ice cream every day (no added sugar, weird chemicals and loaded with protein thanks to protein powder or Fairlife shakes). LOVE!!!! It only took my 3 years to warm up to this baby. Now I am perfecting a recipe for my own protein ice cream. Do you have one?
BATHROOM FIND
I have always been the girl that tucks everything out of sight in the bathroom. Two years ago that changed when I bought this acrylic stand and it’s been the best addition ever. I never thought I would love having my products on the counter, but it’s been life changing. I am so much more consistent with my skincare routine. It’s been wonderful.
*I use clean, non-toxic waterless products that I love. They have been wonderful for my skin. Great time to give it a try. If you purchase two products after taking the quiz, you will get a FREE bottle of F59 (everyone’s favorite and a $96 value).
VACATION DRESSES
All so pretty. I have the orange printed one and LOVE it. I recommend going down one size.
- rik rak sundress – adorable
- rainbow maxi – so sexy and pretty
- green dress – love this cut
- brown stripe – such a great dress
- short dress – just looks like vacation
- orange – also comes in blue, highly recommend, have and love
MAKE THE MEMORIES
This girl. I miss her so much. But so thankful for these fun memories we created in Florida over the holidays. When it doubt, book the trip. We’ve learned just how short life is and any time we can unplug and be together as a family I will take it. This was snapped when were taking the golf cart to the beach for sunset. I wish I could rewind the clock but can’t wait to be back to 30A with the kids. It’s also an incredibly trip to book with just your spouse. So many amazing restaurants to enjoy.
Some of you have reached out about staying in our townhome and I have had so much fun corresponding with you. It makes us so happy when readers who feel a connection choose to stay. Pro tip when booking: use this direct link to save on fees 🙂
Even on cloudy and rainy days the water looks so beautiful. Can’t wait to be back. This are of 30A brings us such peach and we have so much fun there.
What is on your agenda today? I need to get some things cleaned up and then we are headed to Nashville. My son has a dance tonight – can’t wait to see the kids all dressed up. Love these memories he is making.
Make it a great day.
Good morning! I am annoyed with myself for failing for the Ninja Creami hype. Just haven’t found a recipe everyone loves, and it’s taking up valuable kitchen real estate 😉 Please share your recipes. I would love to put it to use.
Winter Garden…oh my. Have tissues handy. If you’re a Kristin Hannah fan you already know that but this one was extra. It upsets me that more of this wasn’t taught in school, at least not any of mine. This is absolutely fiction but it could have been a true story and it inspired me to dig deeper into the history she alludes to in this book.
I loved it. I hope you enjoy it as well!
