Cutest new bag from the FV team. They gave me a discount code, SYDNEYC17 for 17% off. It saves around $68. It's beautifully made and looks SO much like the Loro Piana Bale bag but 1/9 of the cost.
I hope you're all enjoying your week! It's been very busy over here since I am currently en route to visit my sister in Charlotte! My mom and sister are going down for a relaxing little girls weekend and I'm really looking forward to it! Therefore, I've been trying to cram as much work as possible in ahead of time so I don't have to do too much work while I am away!
We have been enjoying hints of spring here! March 1st, it snowed so my hopes were crushed a little, but this week has been absolutely beautiful!
I've been spending the last month or so doing a little spring cleaning and cleaning out some of our kitchen cabinets and then ordering a handful of basic items we needed to replace like a small sheet pan, basic ramekins, berry colanders, and an ice cream scoop!
Wearing: I've been into color lately. I mean, I am always in to color, but especially right now. We are getting hints at spring with the weather and I am living for it!!
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!
Watching: I am watching so many things right now, I can't keep them all straight! I love to binge-watch a good show, but waiting each week for episodes is not my thing because I don't have much time for TV during the week and would rather watch several episodes in a row on the weekends. Anyone else?! Anyway, I started the Night Agent on Netflix. I saw the first season and am enjoying the second season. This is a show you can binge because it is all out! I started Love is Blind but got bored. There are so many episodes in the pods it fell flat for me and was just too much to keep up with at the moment. Right now, we are all caught up on severance and it's SO GOOD. I think it might be the best show in the history of TV. I'm on the edge of my seat. Also on the edge of my seat for Paradise (Hulu). We are not caught up on that, we haven't had time! We are also not caught up on White Lotus but loving it so far. I also have Summer House and Southern Charm, behind on both but love them. Oh, and The Pitt on HBO. I am also not caught up on that, but enjoying it. SO much good TV that I'm likely forgetting something that I am watching. It is crazy after going so long where there was seemingly nothing to watch.
Wanting: I just ordered this casual dress, this dressier dress, and this gorgeous skirt! This is a beautiful lightweight, neutral cardigan. Another great dress in this print. I hope they make a tablecloth in this print, it's very Brunschwig and Fils Ikat Kilim. This is the cutest little cordless lamp! For my fellow bow lovers, how cute is this bag?! An adorable sun hat under $50. I love the shape of these little glass bowls! Love these neutral slide sandals and they're under $100! This pink button down is currently in my cart! I just ordered all of the colors of this long sleeve tee. I think it could be really good. I love when something is labeled 'heavy weight' because usually that just means 'actual good quality'. HM has so many good things right now. These chic pants for a tropical vacation are so fun, and I love this open-back dress. I want to get this basic tank to go with a few skirts for spring. Zella, Nordstrom's in-house brand, has a line called 'ultra soft' which is likely to compete with Varley's dream fabric! This little linen dress is adorable, affordable, and could be worn as a coverup, too! The most perfect one piece swimsuit!!!
Eating: Mini crunchwraps just launched at Taco Bell and I couldn't get there faster to try them. If you are new here, I love Taco Bell. The crunchwrap is my favorite thing on the menu, and this latest version comes with two in an order that are about the size of a silver dollar pancake. The inside contains cheese, a spicy creamy sauce, pico de Gallo, and steak strips. It was delicious. I think the regular crunchwrap is a 10/10 and I'd give this a 9.8/10.
Eating: These might be my favorite chips of all time. This Boulder Canyon brand is so good all around, but these two flavors are my top favorites. They are SO crunchy. I love the flavors of both of these! I find them at Whole Foods.
Drinking: We had this great cabernet the other night when we were over at my parents' house for 'steak night'. If they don't have plans for the night, they always cook steaks on Saturdays. My dad makes the best steak. I really enjoyed this. I couldn't believe it was 13 years old. It had a really good dusty, earthy flavor. My mom calls it 'dusty book' wine, haha!
Sale: My EBY code was renewed for March so you can still use code SYDNEYCFS15 for 15% off and free shipping but I don't think it'll be renewed for April, just as a heads up! Also the Dermstore sale is still going strong! There is a code on their site to use but my code will save you a few extra $$ more depending on what you're ordering!

Listening: Bose sent me this speaker and I am loving it. My dad has been a Bose fan since I was a child. We always had that Bose alarm clock speaker with the CD player in it and speakers for our living room and even for our computer when computers had separate speakers so I always think of him when I see anything Bose! He always brings a mini speaker like this one on vacations, and even just day things like picnics. The other week, we went skiing, and he brought the speaker to listen to music while we had an apres-ski cocktail at the ski lockers. Anyway, I was so blown away by the sound on this little thing I brought it over to my parents' house this weekend for them to check it out. My mom and dad were both amazed by it. The sound is SO crisp and clear. My dad said 'it's like sitting in the front row of a concert.' Anyway, I love it and would highly recommend it. I am also mentioning this because it would make a *great* Father's Day gift. They have a few different sizes to choose from.
Listening: I have been loving George Benson and Christopher Cross, and many of you told me that's called 'Yacht Rock'. I've heard of Yacht Rock as there is a Sirius radio station with that title, but every time I'd put the channel on, I wouldn't like what was playing. Some of it can lean cheesy, in my opinion. I love the Doobie Brothers; they are considered 'yacht rock,' which I had no idea. Anyway, I made my own Yacht Rock playlist and am sharing it with all of you. It has a nice, happy but relaxing vibe.

I've been wearing this pretty gold cuff lately, it's a nice budget-friendly alternative to the Tiffany bone cuff. Code LAYER20 may still work for 20% off.
Pittsburgh: Lately, I have not been able to get enough of Pizzaoilo Primo and, specifically, their Pizza Bianco! It's so flavorful!
Pittsburgh: So excited to hear about this new pizza restaurant opening in place of Bado's on Beverly!
Amazon Rec: The best cuticle oil saving my hands right now! Just had to re-order this stain spray because I ran out. It's the BEST for getting stains out. It's marketed as a spray for messy children, but as a messy adult, I can confirm this is a savior! I use it on clothing, carpet, upholstery, and even drapes. There hasn't been a stain that this spray could not get out... even dog pee!

Hand Soap + Lotion Gift Set (or just the handsoap)
Smelling: This is the most gorgeous and best smelling hand soap I've ever smelled. The brand sent me this gift set. The lotion is wonderful, too, but I think the hand soap seems more 'useful'. The glass pumps are huge and unique, and they have gorgeous designs. The scent is 'sea salt, maritime pine, and cypress.' If they made this in a perfume, I would wear it daily. My husband is sensitive to scents and he loves this one. This brand is fancy and pricey, but I will say they don't have any toxic chemicals in them, and this hand soap has ingredients that treat your hands like skincare would. This is the kind of hand soap you'd see at a luxury hotel like a St. Regis, high-end restaurant, club, or something you'd give as a gift to someone who likes very nice things and you're stumped on what to get them. The only thing that even holds a candle to this is the Hotel Lobby Hand Soap which smells incredible and comes in a stunning glass pump bottle.
