Fall Fashion 30% off Brindle Boutique

Hello, pretty ladies,

Happy Wednesday! I hope your week is going well. I wanted to hop on and share a “shop small” boutique I love, Brindle Boutique, and a fantastic Flash sale they have offered my followers of 30% off goods until the end of the month. 

Several of you know I am a former Boutique owner and how important I believe it is to support small businesses. Here’s an excellent opportunity to do so and get a deal on some great Fall pieces.

I took advantage of this sale and grabbed a couple of items I had been eyeing for Fall. This Velvet duster and this velvet top. Both are perfect to dress up or down and perfect for Fall.

Below are several outfits I created wearing Brindle Boutique pieces. All items are affordable, in great quantity, and can be mixed and matched in all Fall and Winter seasons. Use Code DARCY to Save 30%off

Outfit #1

Dusty Mauve Blazer| Black Joggers| Graphic Tee|

The Blazer is a great fit, perfect with jeans for a chic casual look or paired with trousers for work. Here I am wearing their joggers. 

The graphic tee is a small boutique By Jodi Pedri. You can shop it Here.

 

Outfit #2

Black Jeans| Shoulder Top| Kitten heels| Clutch | Similar Earrings| Ring | Bracelet

I created this fun outfit for date night, but it could also be worn for a girl’s night out, grabbing a cocktail after work or a meeting. Black jeans with frayed hem, so comfortable and long enough for tall girls. It fits in size and is great for casual Fridays with a button-up top or sweater. 

This one-shoulder detail top with chain details and bat wing arms is so flirty and playful. Perfect for a date- night. Comes in several colors and prints. It looks great with the black jeans above. 

 

Outfit #3

Judy Blue Jeans| Bow Shoulder Top| 

It’s one of the pairs of Jeans I’ve been wearing on repeat.

A great fit, flattering, and easy to style. Wear it with every top you own, and it looks great, from button-ups and tees to sweaters and blazers. This jean style works. This is a jeans you can wear from Causal to chic.

This one-shoulder with bow top would be cute dressed up with leather or satin pants for date night or the holidays. Also, darling styled with jeans and a loafer for a more casual look. 

 

2 Pieces I shopped

Velvet duster| Velvet button-up

2 Pieces I shopped from Brindle Boutique and can’t wait for them to arrive, the cute velvet Duster and Velvet top. I can’t wait to style them for you. These pieces will also be perfect for the Holidays. Both pieces come in several colors and can be ordered in true to size.

Barbie Color Mixing for Fall

Pink is a great transition color. It’s a color we often wear in the Summer, last year we saw it in a lot of Fall fashion and we will again this year. Pink looks great on every skin tone and pairs well with shades of Fall. Mix pink with creams and browns, and bring those summer pieces into your Fall wardrobe. I have a fun Reel to watch HERE

Think neutrals, feminine and a little flirty, in shades of Pink (blush and Hot pink), creams, ivories, and browns. Shades that look beautiful in the Summer yet transition into fall with a breeze. Barbie🌸 loves floral, pretty details, a good ruffle, and attention to detail in clothing and accessories.  Gibsonlook has launched a new Now and Later collection that fits right into my theme and several of their best sellers in the perfect shades of fall.

Barbie Accessories

Remember, dressing Barbie as a little girl. Accessories were some of the most important finishing touches. This is still true as you get dressed today.  Accessories finish off the look. Pay attention to the details.

In-Stock Items To Purchase on The Nordstrom Sale

Hello pretty ladies. I hope your week is going well. Yesterday, I headed to the Nordstrom sale with my sweet friend Cammi, From Cammi’s Happy Place. We had fun shopping at the sale, doing try-ons, and having dinner at the Nordstrom grill. Have you eaten at a Nordstrom grill inside of Nordstrom? The food is always so yummy, and they give you refilled drinks in to-go cups, which is always a plus in my book. 

As you know, I love to share wardrobe builders and great classic pieces from the sale with just a couple of cute and fun trendy pieces. This is a great time to pick up some of the premium denim and more design pieces at a great price, as they usually don’t go on sale any other time of the year. 

I searched the racks for items that would make for great basics and pieces you’ll wear on repeat all season long and for years to come. That is still in stock in both stores and online. Many Premium denim sells out fast, but I found some great pairs still in stock in all sizes and great fitting. Nordstrom does restock often throughout the sale, so it is worth checking back often if you have your eye on something that is sold out. 

Below is 4 outfits I created with all In-Stock Items To Purchase on The Nordstrom Sale.

Caprese bowtie pasta salad with chicken

 

Happy Sunday, pretty Ladies,

Today’s “in the Kitchen with D’Arcy,” I am bringing you a crowd favorite. This is a dish I take to parties or make for family BBQs. It’s easy to make. You can whip it up in 30 min. Taste great hot or cold and is fantastic the next day to make it ahead.  

I love the flavor of Caprese, Tomatoes, mozzarella, and fresh basil. It makes for a great pasta dish and adds grilled chicken for protein. 

 

Caprese bowtie pasta salad with chicken

Caprese bowtie pasta salad with chicken big enough for a crowd

2 boxes (1lbs box) of Barilla mini farfalle (cook as directed) 

8 tomatoes chopped 

4 chicken breasts grilled and chopped

2 cups chopped white onions

1 cup chopped fresh basil (I would do 2 cups next time)

2 cupped shredded mozzarella cheese

1 bottle of Newsman’s family recipe Italian dressing 

1/2 cup balsamic Vineger 

1/2 cup olive oil 

2 tablespoons sea salt

1/2 tablespoon black pepper

1/2 tablespoon garlic powder

Directions:

First, I cook the pasta as directed on the box, Then I marinate the chicken breast in olive oil, salt, pepper, and garlic, and my hubby grills it on the BBQ. (If planning, I always add extra chicken to the grill, then you’ll have grilled chicken later in the week.)  As the pasta is boiling, I cut the tomatoes and onions, set them aside, and mix the dressing with the Newmans, Balsamic vinegar, sea salt, pepper, and garlic powder. When mixed up, add it to the tomatoes and onions, stir, and set aside.

Cut chicken into cubes, and set aside. Strain pasta, add olive oil to the pasta, and stir to keep it from sticking. In a large bowl ( I use an extra large wooden serving bowl), add 1/3 of the pasta, 1/3 of the tomato and onion mixture, and stir. Add chicken, stir, then repeat, stir, and repeat until all the pasta and tomato mixture is added and stir.

This process makes sure everything is thoroughly mixed. Then mix in cheese and stir. Add fresh basil and stir. I like to top it with more cheese and fresh basil. Serve warm or cold.
