Lately








I hope you are all having a wonderful week! This week has been hectic as I am en route to Georgia, so I had to fit my week into just the first three days while also trying to pack and get everything in place for my trip! All good things, and I have no complaints! It's a grueling 10-hour drive, but well worth it, that's for sure. We always drive because of the pups! 

I've had a fully packed social calendar lately. Normally, I'm pretty good at keeping a nicely spaced calendar, but man, oh man, did I fit in way too much lately. I'm excited to relax and recharge on vacation with family and friends. 

I actually have a good 'problem' right now. I have SO much content to share with you all. So stay tuned!

This past weekend, we went on a little triple date with friends to Pusadee's Garden, my favorite restaurant in Pittsburgh. It was such a nice evening. Then we went out for my dad's birthday. We had drinks at the Le Mont and then dinner at Del Frisco's. Then, we packed up the card and headed south for a mountain weekend with family and friends. 
 
Wearing: Frame sent these two pieces from their new pre-fall arrivals. It is far too warm for this kind of outfit now, but I am so excited to be able to wear sweaters again sometime soon. I love sweaters and fall clothing. It is my favorite season for outfits. They gave me a discount code SYDNEY15 for 15% off full-price purchases. I love their denim, I've collected quite a few pairs over the years but this pair felt very current and not a style I had in my wardrobe! I think I'll really let them shine in early fall with a simple white button-down. 

Are you following me on the LikeToKnowIt app?! You can shop all of my outfits, favorite finds, and more in the app. I am constantly updating it with the latest! You can also access all of my posts, here, if you don't use LTK! You can also find me on ShopMy, another shopping platform! 

Eating: I'm reporting back about these olives I snagged at Whole Foods. I bought them for the packaging, but wow, they are some of the best jarred olives I've ever tried. They're so crisp and flavorful—the most perfect martini olives ever. 
Drinking: A family friend brought this cabernet to the mountains this past weekend, which was incredible. He said it wasn't expensive, but wow, it tasted like a $100 bottle. 

Sale: The Lake sale goes through tomorrow! You can see my roundup here! Last week, I shared my list of codes; I'm going to share it again because I have two more codes to add to it. I try to get a code from a brand whenever I can! 

Dermstore// SUMMERWIND

Frame Denim (this is a new one!)// SYDNEY15 (full price only)

Simplified// SUMMERWIND

Spanx// SYDNEYXSPANX

Tigre de Tartan (the brand that makes the custom dog pouch; this is new!)// SYDNEY15 (on $100+)

Versed// SYDNEYCARVER

Ziip// WINDZIIP

Watching:
 I just restarted The Wonder Years. It's one of the best sitcoms. I've watched it many times but haven't in a while! It's just such a nice, feel-good show. 

Loving: I've been liking this face cream so far. It's much too soon to fully give my stamp of approval, but people compare it to the $200++ Augustinus Bader cream, which I love and use daily. Except, this cream is under $50. It definitely has a similar consistency/feel to the AB cream so I get the comparison. I like it under makeup just as I wear the AB, too! 

Wanting: This mini tote
is currently in my cart. I just can't decide between the natural or the navy, what do you think?! New Balance 327s in so many new colors and are fully in stock! They're one of my favorite fashion sneakers that I own! I also noticed that these sneakers are popping up everywhere. They were SO popular for guys (in the gray color) when I was in college. Fashion really is cyclical! I love a novelty wardrobe piece, and this one is SO good for fellow martini lovers. This linen dress is so chic. These sandals are on sale and fun but neutral. These pants are on my fall wish list. 

Pittsburgh: I snapped this photo last week at the Le Mont. We went there for drinks before our dinner downtown for my dad's birthday. It's the prettiest view of the city!

Amazon Rec: If you work out with grip socks (pilates, barre, etc.), check out this sock brand on Amazon. I recently got these grip socks for Pilates, and I love them. They're so comfortable and much nicer than the other random Amazon pairs I have ordered in the past. 

This bag looks SO much like Dragon Diffusion and the price is much less! Love that there are so many color options. 

You can find more of my Amazon favorites, here on my Amazon page where I am constantly updating it with all of my finds and top picks from home, beauty, fashion, and more!
