Saturday Shopping - A Thoughtful Place

Good morning, sweet friend. How was the week? We enjoyed celebrating our 17 year old and surviving AP exams. So nice to have my family back under one roof and with only finals to go, summer is so close! This edition of Saturday Shopping is one of my favorites. So many great things to share. Grab a cup of hot tea or coffee and let’s get to it.

NAUTICAL STYLE

So much red, white and blue goodness. Loving all of these pieces, especially for Memorial Day and the Fourth. The nautical trend right now is so good.

flag sweater ( I ordered in the tan version)
gingham blouse
adorable sneakers
floral dress
striped sweater
denim shorts (so good)
lobster clutch
jeans

MOST LOVED GRAD GIFTS

I did a post this week on what Riley really loved and used (this is not a post on what you need in the dorm . . more on that soon). These were all things she was gifted. Plus one thing she wish she had. There are ideas for boy as well with more thoughts on that in the full post.

ENJOY THE PATIO

I dream of walking out onto a patio like this. It’s giving me inspiration to give our screened in porch a little makeover.

Do you need lighting in your backyard or on a porch? We are obsessed with these. Seriously the best warm light and solar powered . . . no need to charge. I love these so much we bought three. When we entertain outside, we only use these and it’s magical.

BACK IN STOCK

If you need a piece outside to store items and host from, we love this console table. It’s metal, designed to look like wood, and has held up like a dream. Truly a great find and so happy to see it back this year. The gray planter is a steal and so good. We have four of them! We have also been very happy with these striped towels. Absorbent and still using them two years later for our hot tub.

We have these striped towels in our beach rental and like them as well.

MCGEE AND CO. 30% OFF SALE

The rug used in this room is 30% off and it’s stunning. The colors are so beautiful together.

Classic and beautiful. Now 30% off. So pretty.

These add charm and texture to any shelf or sideboard. 30% off this weekend.

Eek. So in love with this ottoman. I would have used this in the basement as a coffee table. So good.

This travertine coffee table is a show stopper. The 30% off sale makes a big difference with this piece.

I am considering this quilt for our guest room. It’s giving Nancy Meyers vibes and I love it.

Lastly, this is my dream piece. Everything about it. What a beautiful place to house your favorite pieces to gather with friends and family. I will be living vicariously though you if you are putting this in your home. So beautiful.

This best selling coffee table is so classic. Great size and the extra shelf is fun for styling. It’s 30% off.

If you love McGee and Co. this really is the time to shop. Up to 30% off and so many gorgeous pieces that will stand the test of time. This page has so many of my favorites. So so pretty.

WAYFAIR SALE

We are thinking about putting a king size bed in our basement guest room and this beautiful bed is top of my list. It’s what we used here in the townhome by the beach and we love it. It’s currently on sale. We bought the Classic Talc Linen and it’s a beautiful shade. The drapery panels are from here and the rug is here.

*The fan is really pretty . . hard to come by with fans.

Love this rug so much. It’s indoor/outdoor but soft underfoot. Perfect for high traffic areas or a rental. The price is really good right now. Thinking of getting one for Riley’s apartment next year.

If you have a blue inspired room, this rug is gorgeous in person. Such a pretty combination and now on sale.

TIME TO GROW HERBS

I am planning to grow arugula and herbs and have been searching for a raised garden. This one has wonderful reviews and is currently on sale.

I ordered one more set of these outdoor lights. They are solar and have been really wonderful. Love the lighting they give off. Great for uplighting trees and shrubs or parts of your home. In a perfect world we would hard wire lighting but that is probably 100th on the list right now so these it is!

These are fantastic, my friends. Especially for the teens. Highly recommend. Also really great for travel.

If you need a basic frame, this one came packaged so well. We wanted to frame some artwork of my son’s and this is perfect.

Looking for a good book? I loved this so much. Felt so connected to the characters and didn’t want it to end. Beautifully written.

I receive compliments every time I wear these and they are just fun Amazon bracelets. Fun to wear.

Don’t sleep on this dress. I have it in two colors. Beautiful fit and feel. My daughter has borrowed both colors. A really great dress.

This set is a favorite of mine. Feels like Spanx but with a lower price tag. Great for travel. I often wear this on the plane and take a denim jacket or lightweight cardigan.

Shared this before, but it really is a great one piece. You can adjust how high you would like the size. Classic and cute. I will be taking this to Florida with me.

NORDSTROM

This one piece would be beautiful for any upcoming vacation. Love the cut and the colors on this.

Did someone say vacation? I love this bright and happy dress.

Yes, please. Love the caramel color with the color blocking. So unique and pretty.

A beautiful summer dress . . .the back on this!!!

Big fan of the kitten heel (especially when I travel) and these come in so many different colors ($49).

ADD TO CART

Our favorite quilted jacket now comes in powder blue. I saw it in store and its ADORABLE. I held it up to take a photo and when I set it down another gal grabbed it and walked away. So I will be ordering mine online. I like to go down one size in these.

ANTHROPOLOGIE

Wedding or special event coming up, this dress is so pretty.

I’ve tried this on and it’s so flattering. A really great cut on this dress. It also comes in classic white.

I was dropping something off at UPS the other day and a gal had this dress on. Beyond cute in person. The fit on this is fantastic. So many colors available, too.

TUCKERNUCK

Have you seen the new Shea Mcgee colab with Tuckernuck? What a perfect pairing. This skirt is gorgeous.

This striped sweater is on my wishlist. I love how it looks with denim.

This dress is so romantic and pretty. The print is beautiful.

You can shop the entire collection here.

RILEY’S PICK

I bought this for Riley and she loves it. It’s the cutest fit. Highly recommend and now on sale for $21! It’s more of a pretty warm white in person . . not super bright white.

We also had many questions about this dress. You can find it here. It really is a darling one.

THE BEACH IS CALLING

The beach is calling and I can’t wait to be here. If you would like to book a stay in our 30A place, this is the best link (less fees). I just updated our favorites list so if you do book, definitely shoot me an email so I can pass it along (athoughtfulplaceblog@gmail.com).

Wishing you a really wonderful weekend. Graduation parties are in full effect over here and I will be finishing up some artwork for the basement as well as repainting our front steps (wish me luck).
