Saturday Shopping

August 15, 2026 by Courtney 1 Comment

Good morning. We are one week out from the move back to college and our house looks like a tornado came through. We will be spending much of today getting things under control. It’s just hard to believe summer is officially winding down. Sharing some great deals and favorites of ours in this week’s Saturday Shopping.

ANTHRO

This flattering dress is 30% off. It also comes in a classic black which would be great for fall.

This viral bag is now on sale!! It comes in so many colors and is so unique and fun.

Adore the cut of this dress. Many color options. So good and 30% off.

I have these in the color of the sole of the shoe and had no idea they were available in clear. I wear my clear heels more than any shoe in my closet. These are great! Very comfortable and highly recommend. This is my favorite type of shoe to take on a trip, too. You can pair them with shorts, denim, dresses and skirts. It’s the perfect heel. They are now $70.

These are beautiful. They look so much like the designer version but without the price tag.

Still one of my favorite necklaces to wear. It instantly elevates any outfit. I usually pair it with a white blouse or white t-shirt. So many color options and something I get compliments on every time I wear it. Riley and I both wear this multi-colored one often.

This Amazon version is also really great. Riley borrows it from me all the time. I think I’ll surprise her with one to take back to school.

SPLURGE WORTHY

These hand made dresses feel like a work of art. This beautiful orange one caught my eye. I have a blue and white one and LOVE wearing it.

I’ve been living in this set this summer. It’s so comfortable but you still feel pulled together. They gave me a code: COURTNEYF15 for 15% off. A splurge but really well made and designed (the shorts are higher in the back so they don’t move down when you sit). This Amazon version is really cute, too.

camo pants

Just when you thought these couldn’t get any better . . .they are now $14. What???? Girls, these are so cute and comfy. Truly love these.

These t-shirts are fantastic. Riley and I both LOVE them. I size up to a medium. It’s on sale for $6 so I literally just bought 5!

ON SALE

blue top

Heads up that this pretty blouse is on sale. It was already a good deal but is even better now. I always get compliments on this one.

WE USE THESE DAILY

adirondack

These were one of our best buys this year. We LOVE them and sit in them daily. Riley loves to get sun out here during the day and I love to enjoy them in the morning and for sunset. I am pleasantly surprised with how well they do in the elements. Great quality and they even fold up (we will likely tuck them away during the snowy season). I noticed the white is back in stock and you can’t beat the price. I just wish we had bought them sooner for this space.

HANGING THESE TODAY

drapery panels

I’m so excited to get these drapery panels up in our family room today. I am sure I’ll share over in stories. We ended up going with color natural. These are fully lined, pinch pleat trained and great quality. You truly can’t get a better price for the way they are made. They even come with the rings and plastic adjustable hooks to hang them. My sister adores these too and has used them all over her beautiful home.

I’m looking for a larger coffee table for our basement and have my eye on this one. I love the detailing on it. This is a great size and the price is really good for how substantial it is. It reminds me of Studio McGee.

EVERY HOME NEEDS ONE

So grateful to have this little machine. I was able to clean a rug that will go back in Riley’s dorm this year! It’s such a great machine to have on hand. And it’s the reason our white outdoor chairs still look fantastic. (Currently on sale).

LOVE MY HATCH

hatch

My Hatch has been a game changer. I wake up to sunlight and birds chirping. They just released a new version that can track your sleep (what phases etc) without you having to wear a ring or any other device. The technology is amazing. Plus you can listen to meditations, stories, music, etc.

LEAK PROOF WATER BOTTLE

water bottle

This was the talk of the town last week. I need to officially break up with Stanley. My water bottle leaked every day we took it to the beach. Meanwhile, Riley is here tossing hers around without a care in the world and it never drips. Genius design. Especially for college kids tossing water bottles in with their laptops. That can be really risky. This is the one I am switching to thanks to my daughter.

CROWD PLEASER

The best is when one of you reaches out to say you love a recommendation. I received a DM this morning letting me know that their kids LOVE this. Now the whole family is hooked. It’s fluoride free and whitens without the yucky ingredients. It tastes great and leaves your teeth feeling so clean (this is our favorite toothbrush). The floss is also a 10/10.

*So much of health is connected to good oral health. It’s great to take a look at your routine and what your are using.

BOOKS LATELY

I’m very excited to order this. I saw Caroline interviewed the other day and this book is set up in such a great way. I’m so excited to dive in. I need all the help I can get lately as I just don’t love spending a ton of time cooking dinner.

Also just finished Mad Mabel and it was great! A really enjoyable book. I am now reading Theo of Golden which I have heard really great things about.

I adore this book. Every recipe I have made has been wonderful. Highly recommend.

THANK YOU SO MUCH

It’s so heart warming when people take the time to leave reviews after staying in our home. It means so much to Ryan and me. We are currently booking for fall (our all time favorite time of year on 30A). The crowds are gone and the temperatures are dreamy. And the house will be decorated for Christmas this year between the dates of November 8 – January 3. It will be so fun to have it been festive and cozy for any holiday getaways.

Off to get things done!!! My to-do list is lengthy but I’m looking forward to being productive. Make it a great day, my friend.
