Lately


We had the best time in Charleston celebrating my parent's 40th wedding anniversary. What an amazing milestone! Since my sister and brother-in-law live in Charlotte, it's always extra special when all six of us are together. 

I got back yesterday, and I've been playing catch-up ever since, hence the lack of blog post yesterday! I feel a bit overwhelmed but all good things! We are headed to an event tonight (I'm wearing this!), but I am glad we don't have any plans this weekend so I can work on catching up some more! I have two deadlines for Friday that I am working on. It's busy season over here and I am so grateful and wouldn't change it for the world!

Wearing: A new-to-me brand, Rhone, sent me this activewear set and as soon as I got it, I wore it on my morning walk and then to Pilates. The pieces are so well made and incredibly soft! The jacket is from another favorite activewear brand. It is also well made and the perfect layer for this time of year but also great for layering as it gets cooler! 

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 finally tried the peelable mango gummies this weekend! They are sooo delicious and you really can peel them. You can find them at Walgreens.
Drinking: This cashmere wrap has been out of stock for a while and it's now back in stock. Some colors are already selling out! I love this color SO much! I tried a grasshopper cocktail this past weekend. For my fellow Palm Royale lovers, you all know what I'm talking about. It tasted like a peppermint patty milkshake with alcohol. It was good but so rich! 

Top (on sale)

Dress (on sale)// White Sneakers

Sale: Today is the last day for the Tuckernuck sale! My picks and reviews are here!

Watching:
 The Freeform 31 Nights of Halloween schedule is out and while you can stream just about anything these days, I love me a holiday movie, commercials and all! Honestly, watching live TV feels practically vintage, in the best way! I'm also excited to start The Golden Bachelor. I liked the first season. I hadn't watched a Bachelor or Bachelorette season in many years and the Golden Bachelor seemed so much more tame, which I prefer. Otherwise, I'm not really watching anything! Has anyone watched anything really good lately? 

Loving: I own one pair of cowboy boots that I have had since college and the only time I really wear them is to concerts. I love them, though. I saw these red boots in the store and I can't stop thinking about them! They are wholly impractical but they were just so pretty. I am picturing dark wash skinny jeans tucked into the boots and an oversized white oxford button down. So simple but cute, right?! I put a poll on IG and it was a 50/50 split on those that voted yes/no! 


Wanting: This jacket
is fall perfection! The most-perfect-shade-of-red cashmere. These black boots are incredible. This gold signet ring is such a great price... it's less than I paid for my signet ring 10 years ago! This cardigan is a steal and looks gorgeous, but I am hesitant about it because it doesn't have any reviews! This lounge set looks wonderfully cozy! I'm thinking about ordering these clogs. I don't own clogs, and they look slightly more fashionable than Birkenstocks. I seriously love all of the Varley new arrivals! This sweater is so classic. On my wish list! This coat is a standout!

Pittsburgh: Golden Gai is opening for dine-in October 15th. I cannot wait to try this restaurant!
Amazon Rec: We are nearing Ugg season and that means it is time to treat your shoes! I like to treat most of my shoes with this spray! It keeps my shoes cleaner for longer and with Uggs, it helps to keep them from getting any water stains! 

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!

Traveling: We are staying put for a little while and I am so glad! I love fall in Pittsburgh!

Red cowboy boots are on my wishlist too! I think they'd look so pretty with a voluminous white dress in the summer but I'm having a hard time justifying them!
