Dear D'Arcy

Three little black dresses: by Jude Connally

Hello Pretty Lady, 

“Your talent determines what you can do. Your motivation determines how much you’re willing to do. Attitude determines how well you do it.” —

“Do what you love, and you’ll never work a day!”

I am lucky to be doing what I love, and I have you, pretty ladies, to thank for that! Thank you for being here and supporting my small business. Whether with a like♥️ on social media, a comment, a DM, shopping a link, watching my stories, or reading a blog post, each helps me do what I love and share with you. I appreciate you.

Living stylishly and looking good at any age is a passion of mine. I love helping you to do the same! With the Holidays approaching, I thought I’d get a jump start and start sharing Holiday looks with you. Just in case you needed a little Holiday outfit inspiration for the upcoming party season,

Today, I am sharing Jude Connally, a newer brand to me. Let me tell you, I am in love with the quality, fit, and darling styles. I even have a 15% off code to share with you. Use JDARCY to save 15% off your purchase.

“At Jude Connally, they believe in making women feel good and look great. Their clothes are designed to fit and flatter every body type, with vibrant colors and prints that express your personality. Jude Connally is more than a clothing brand; it’s a lifestyle.”

Three little black dresses: by Jude Connally

Ella Dress

#1. Ella dress stretch velvet with rhinestone details – I am in a small, head over heels for this short-sleeved- tee- shirt-inspired dress! With an easy fit, the Ella dress in velvet will be your new go-to this season. Featuring chic studded detailing on the front. Whether dressed up or down, it flawlessly combines timeless charm with modern chic.

Paired with a classic black pump, mine are Sam Edelmann, a simple and affordable clutch by Quilted Koala. You could do black for a classic and simple look or choose metallic silver for a fun, festive pop. Save 20% with code DARCY20. The jewelry is kept simple, as the rhinestones on the dress are enough sparkle—one simple rhinestone bracelet and a great simple rhinestone drop earring or even a large stud. Mine are vintage drop earrings. 

Hair Tip: When you’re styling an outfit versus just wearing it, you consider what hairstyle works with the dress and flatters you and your outfit. Here, the updo works and allows the dress to shine. Sometimes, when a dress is busy, wearing hair down adds to the busyness

Franca Dress

#2. Franca Dress– Jude Ponte with feather-trimmed sleeves fits tts in and makes a statement this season with our stunning new shift dress, Franca! Featuring 3/4 sleeves with eye-catching feathered cuffs and a classic crew neckline, this chic dress combines timeless elegance with a playful twist. A must-have for your wardrobe!

Finishing this look off with a pop of color, fushia tweed shoes by Madison Masion and a velvet tulip bag by Cecelia New York

Hairstyle tip: With the simple neckline of this dress, you really can wear your hair in several ways: down and full, straight and sleek, half up, or even in a low side knot or pony. It does depend if you add an earring you want to show off as well; with this dress, you could wear a statement earring and pull your hair away from your face. (I will be doing just that as soon as I find the fushia statement earring I WANT)

Maureen Dress

#3. Maureen Dress—Jude Ponte has a Halter neck and Bow detail

Step into the spotlight with our new super chic dress, Maureen! Featuring an elegant high neckline with an adjustable bow tie for added sophistication. This stunning style is a must-have for all your holiday parties, offering a perfect blend of modern elegance and festive charm! It fits true to size, and I am the size small.

I finished off the look with a pair of rock-studded Valentino pumps, which make a small statement but don’t overpower the bow detail of the dress. I took the gold stud from the shoes as inspiration for the jewelry and wore black and gold bold jewelry from Julie Vos. This perfectly finishes off the outfit.

Tip: Another important detail when styling a halter-style dress is to let the halter, and in this case, the bow detail, be the star. Wear your hair back off your shoulders, either in a chic ponytail, bun, or top knot.

12 Thanksgiving Outfit Inspirations

12 Thanksgiving Outfit Inspirations

Hello Pretty Ladies, 

I can’t believe we are in October’s last couple of days, and Halloween is tomorrow! How did that happen? This also means that Thanksgiving will be here before we know it, which inspired today’s blog post. 12 Thanksgiving outfit inspirations to inspire you, whether you are cooking all day and like to be cozy and comfortable, entertaining a small gathering and casual but a little elevated, or your family tradition is to get dressed up. Maybe you are somewhere in between. I have created some cute outfits that will fit all of the above. 

Suzanne, Dawn, Cindy, and Stephanie, who is new to our new group, are joining me today on our monthly blog hop. Each lady will feature something related to Thanksgiving, such as a recipe, table setting, or outfit inspiration. You’ll want to ensure you head to their blogs and see what they share. I am excited to see what they share, as I know it will be fabulous, as always. I’ve linked their blogs at the end of this post. I know they would love for you also to leave a comment to show you stopped by.

Thanksgiving outfits, I am sure, will inspire you

12 Thanksgiving Outfit Inspirations from Cozy, elevated casual to dressed up. No matter how you like to spend your Thanksgiving day, I have an outfit inspiration I think you’ll love.

I posted a poll on Instagram asking what style you wore on Thanksgiving, and it was a tie for Cozy outfits and elevated casual for the most requested outfit inspirations. This didn’t surprise me, as we have become such a casual society. I know so many cook all day, have football games or head outside to play a family ball game. 

I cook all day for our family, including family and friends. Please give me a good reason to get dressed up. Having a pretty table and using my china make me feel I need to dress the part. That said, I tend to dress up a little, even if it’s just a sweater and trousers or a silk blouse and trousers, which can still be comfortable. Last year, I did wear a dress. I had so many pretty clothes for the season, and it was a shame not to wear them.

Cozy Outfit inspirations

Below, you’ll find four great options for being cozy and comfortable while still looking put-together and chic. These looks are affordable and can be mixed with other items in your closet to mix and match all season long. A couple of these looks are also great for Holiday travel, as that always seems to be something people need inspo for. 

I can even picture a few of these outfit looks outside playing flag football with the family!

I was styling this viral Amazon comfy, cozy, soft, oversized hoodie and baggie jogger set. Perfect for FALL, it comes in sizes Xsm to 2xl. Easy to Elevate this set with a few easy tips to look chic and comfy. Great for travel as well. I styled it on Instagram with a Coat View here.

Fall outfit inspo

Here is one of my favorite elevated casual outfits featuring pieces you can use for work wear! I find myself grabbing these pieces weekly.

My favorite go-to jeans of the season are Risen jeans. They fit and feel like premium denim at a fraction of the cost. They are under $70 and fit true to size. I am in a 27 for reference.

The mixed plaid blazer in shades of fall has been a favorite go-to for a couple of seasons now. Unfortunately, it’s unavailable, but I linked this year’s version with the same vibe, fit, and colors. It fits true to size. I got a medium so I could layer sweaters under it. 

Cable sweater Turtleneck sweater by Banana Republic factory. It’s so soft, fits true to size, and is the perfect shade of camel that works with so many fall outfits. Mine is a couple of seasons old; I linked you a great option with the same vibe here.

Leopard accessories are a great way to add interest and a pop of pattern to an outfit to make it interesting. My go to Belt and these large buckle leopard kitten heals are so good, I can’t stop wearing.

Chloe tote in perfect shades of black, tan, and cream.

#9 Leopard Skirt outfit

It is a great way to wear a leopard skirt dressed up for the Holidays. I wore this look to church last week, as I love dressing up for church; it allows me to be creative and use pieces in my wardrobe that I love to wear yet don’t have a lot of places to wear. This Amazon finds leopard skirt fits true to size, Paired with a Black Pumiey bodysuit that also fits true to size; I love how a bodysuit is fitted and doesn’t add bulk, especially with a flowy skirt with an elastic band. Another styling must be done when wearing a bottom with an elastic band, and you must make sure you add a belt. Here, I added a wide chocolate brown belt with studs to cover the band, flatter the waist, and add interest. 

A Chocolate faux leather jacket, which fits true to size, is a great “third” piece for any wardrobe. A third piece is that layering piece that adds interest and layers to an outfit, taking it from drab to fab. It’s a great tip to finish off any outfit. Here is the same Moto jacket in chocolate suede by Chicos.

Accessories

Great styling, but it comes down to adding interest with accessories. I’ve said it before, and I’ll repeat it: accessories finish the outfit and add interest to your style. I purchased these vintage suede Mary Jane heels with stud details over 25 years ago. I fell in love with them, and I adore them now. Mary Janes is having a big moment this year, which is one reason I tell my clients to save certain items, especially if they love them. Some older or Vintage pieces in your wardrobe keep your style from looking like everyone else. It adds character to your outfit, especially if you can bring pieces out that might be on trend again; yours will be that unique piece that stands out just a little bit more. Here is a similar pair of Mary Jane heels.

Speaking of vintage, I pulled out another piece from my archive, this great multi-chain statement bib necklace I purchased 15 or 17 years ago from Bauble Bar. It’s technically not vintage yet (something needs to be 20 years old to be labeled vintage.) This outfit would have looked great with this Julie Vos chunky chain necklace. I also love this multichain statement necklace, which made a big statement and made the outfit fabulous. Need a multichain statement necklace? I found this one HERE to finish off your look.

Julie Vos’s earrings and a ring complete the look. Shop the earrings, bracelets, and rings.

Hello Pretty Ladies,
It’s officially Fall! Wow, I think that was the fastest summer ever! I love summer and Fall—my two favorite seasons—and they seem the shortest here in Utah! Fall means my birthday month is coming. I have my Fall bucket list ready and am looking forward to crisp mornings and evenings and the stunning shades of the season. 
 

Today, I am sharing some fall favorites for our monthly blog hop with Suzanne, Cindy, and Dawn.

I will keep this one short and sweet! Below, you will find all the fun things I want to share, including my family’s favorite recipe for this easy pumpkin chocolate chip cookie recipe and a few things you could have missed. (I’ll be sharing the sunflower field later next week.)

Affordable and Easy Coastal Tablescape

Affordable and Easy Coastal Tablescape

Hello Pretty Ladies,

Entertaining doesn’t need to be complicated or daunting. Throwing an unforgettable party doesn’t require much time or money; it just requires a little thought, creativity, and heart.”

I was so flattered to be a part of Isabella’s @confessionsofasuperager “create the life you want to love” girlfriend’s trip… let alone having the honor of creating a tablescape and charcuterie board to welcome our friends Into her home.

“There is nothing that makes me happier than sitting around the dinner table and talking until the candles are burned down.” 

Isabella had mentioned a month prior or so in her stories that if she were going to create a “Dream Team” to create a dinner party for her, she would pick me to create a tablescape, her friend Marie @cocktailsinbloom to make the cocktails, and our friend Suzanne @crazyblondelifeblog to cook the meal. Talk about the ultimate flattery. 

 “Hospitality should have no other nature than love.” 

Fast forward to when she decided to make her “dream” a reality and decided to host a girl’s trip and Make it Happen….. See, ladies, dreams do come true… with action! Of course, I was flattered and even more honored to be a part of her “dream” in the presence of such talented, loving, and beautiful souls. This was an extraordinary time shared between incredible women, and I am so blessed to be a part of building these lasting memories and friendships.

This is your sign to host a girls’ night out or plan a girl’s trip with the woman you love.

Tips on ways to create a fab tablescape

Tip: Use what you have and then create around that. This helps you see what you might have to fill in with and makes shopping for items you need easier.

Get creative and think of regular items that you can create something with. I used wine corks for the place cardholders; I just used a knife and cut a slit in it to hold the card. In this case, two stickers were used to create the card. 

Using what you have

 A little something from our garden, cutting flowers from our garden, to bring a little outside in. It is an affordable way to create a centerpiece. These sweet little vases are perfect for single steams, making a big statement for a simple centerpiece. 

Flower arranging Tips:

-Always remove any leaves below the water line. Leaves in water instantly start decomposing and causing bacterial growth. 

-Cut stems at an angle so they can “drink.”

– Change water every couple of days to extend blooms

My secret little shops for finding affordable treasures

I am always looking for inexpensive treasures to create pretty and affordable tablescapes and items for entertaining everywhere I go. From little boutiques to antique stores, garden centers, and even second-hand shops. It’s a great way to be inspired by a tablescape, too.

 Affordable shops

Amazon has everything you need to create a beautiful table. From beautiful tablecloths to runners, placemats, napkins, silverware, glasses, dish sets, chargers, and the little extras.

Follow my Amazon storefront for my picks, inspiration boards, and ideas.   

HomeGoods is a favorite place to pick up unique and affordable vases, serving pieces, stemware, and glasses. I also like looking for unique pieces I can reuse for other occasions. We found the pineapple plastic—yes, plastic dishes above—and the silverware. We also found the Coral (we got the seashell on the beach), but you can purchase bags of them at HomeGoods as well.

The Dollar Tree—The Dollar Store has been hitting it out of the park lately—fabulous chargers for $1.25 each, Affordable dishes. Above, we found these gold chargers, wooden beads with tassels, stickers I used for place cards, and mini candle votives. 

Hobby Lobby—This has an excellent craft section, candles, holders, silk flowers, a party section, and a great selection of home decor for every theme. You’ll find some fun things to create with seasonal items. 

Zurcher’s Party Store—I always find the little details that make the party special here, including Party supplies, theme ideas, paper goods, unique candy, serving pieces, and party favors.

Fall Trends To Refresh Your Wardrobe

Fall Trends To Refresh Your Wardrobe

Good morning, Pretty Ladies,

Need a little wardrobe refresh for fall?

If you want to refresh your fall wardrobe, I’ve got some top picks that will keep you looking stylish all season long without breaking the bank! Something about the change of season makes you want to add a few new pieces to your wardrobe. 

Today, I am sharing a few essential items you could add to your Fall wardrobe that work now for a tremendous summer-to-fall transition and that you’ll be able to style all through the Fall season. I always say, “A great and affordable way to stay current” is adding on-trend accessories to your wardrobe each season. 

Accessories finish off the outfit while also changing its look. Have you ever noticed how you can change a basic outfit just by styling it with your accessories?

My girlfriends Cindy, Suzane, and Dawn are joining me today to share FALL for our monthly blog hop. I’ve linked them below, and you want to see what they’re sharing today, as I know it will be amazing.

Adding a few essential accessories to your wardrobe

On-trend Fall Accessories 

Fall Trends To Refresh Your Wardrobe


Belts

Belts have been an accessory trend, from designer to Amazon finds, for the last few years. This fall, you’ll see even more, from thin to wide. Belts add interest, flatter your figure, draw attention to your waist, and add texture to your outfit.

Belts are for every style, whether you’re a quiet Luxury classic dresser, a girl who wears mostly work wear, jeans, a tee shirt, a dresser, or that country gal. Several cute belts are on trend this season in every shape, thickness, and style. 

Here are a couple I love and a couple I’ve styled.

Shop Belts Below:

Fall Trends To Refresh Your Wardrobe

Chunky earring 

The 80s-style chunky gold workwear earrings started making a comeback last year, and they’re making an even bigger statement this year. 

I picked up this designer-inspired pair at the end of 22 and have been wearing them weekly ever since. I love the classic feel, yet they’re just the perfect size to wear casually with jeans and a tee, great for work wear, and great with dresses. These aren’t heavy, and the quality is fantastic for $12-14, compared to the $890-1400 designer look-alikes. 

Here are a few more affordable, on-trend, chunky earrings to refresh your wardrobe.

Bangle Bracelets

I’ve always been a bangle bracelet girl. I love a good arm party or arm candy stack, and bangles are a great way to add texture, color, and interest to any look for any season. 

However, we are seeing them coming in strong for Fall. A great stack I’ve owned for years is my BudhaGirl all-weather bangles. I’ve enjoyed these waterproof bangles because they’re light and can be worn underwater. They also take all the guesswork out of creating a stack. You can purchase the 3/5/7/9 stack bundles. 

I am a “more” kind of gal, and I adore you. Mix these bangles with your other favorite arm party bangles and bracelets. 

Here’s the Budha girl bangles I own:

I’ve created a few bracelet stacks that would be perfect for the summer-fall transition and would significantly refresh your wardrobe.

Shop the Leopard Dress and Bangles HERE

Fall Necklace trend

Pendant necklaces are making a comeback. I love a suitable statement pendant. They add a longer line to your outfit, giving the illusion of length, so if you need a little height or a slimming effect, a pendant necklace does that. 

I love necklace stacks, and it’s okay if you do, too. There are still a variety of ways to style them.

Fall color trends

Adding Trending colors

Color trends are easy to incorporate and a great way to update your wardrobe.  

Shades of green, with olive green coming in on top. There is a lot of brown. Red is still popular, but plum/Wine and Terracotta/ Pumpkin are coming in strong.

As I’ve shared before, Something about the change of season makes you want to add a few new pieces to your wardrobe. Adding color trends is an easy way you can incorporate a trend without being too “trendy” if you like me and have more of a chic, classic style and like to add a pop of whimsy or something that makes a statement. Color is a great way to incorporate something new. Whether it’s the latest accessories, shoes, a bag, or a new arrival of clothing, a trending Color can easily update some of your classic pieces. 

Olive Green:

Olive green evokes space, wisdom, and compassion for humanity. It is also associated with harmony, diplomacy, and self-love.… Olive green represents the traditional color of peace.

This is a great color that pairs well with all the shades of fall; it looks preppy with navy and Chic & casual with denim.

Shades of Red:

Red is a powerful color and super fun to incorporate into your wardrobe. Everyone has a shade of red that works with their skin tone, blue or orange tones. Find the one that works for you. 

I am a blue-tone red girl. Last year, I started adding red pops with my accessories: a great bag, fun bow flats, a pair of red tennis shoes, a red belt, and even a red cashmere sweater and blazer. And I must say they were some of my favorite pieces, which I’ve worn repeatedly. 

They added that pop, yet worked with my classic workwear, dressed up a button-up and jeans to accessorize my summer style.

Shop this Fall transition look HERE.

Terracotta, or I Like to call it, Pumpkin.

Pumpkin is a color I love in the fall, and it pairs very well with Leopard and denim. It’s a fun color for the season but can be tricky for some skin tones to wear. Incorporating this color into your wardrobe is a great way; if it does not look great, try it with accessories or a fun pair of pants or jeans. This color is great with cream, brown, and olive green shades.

Leopard is an all-time favorite and, in my eyes, a classic pattern that is also neutral. Whether you want to add a pop to your accessories or wear it from head to toe, leopard is a must this year.

Pearls & Prosecco Bridal Shower

Pearls & Prosecco Bridal Shower

Hello Pretty ladies,

What an honor to throw my future daughter in LOVE a bridal shower in June.

In honor of the wedding week approaching.. 8/24/24, I wanted to share all the details of this beautiful day celebrating are all the details of this unique shower, What I created, The DIYs, Tips for building a Beautiful event, Ways to save money without sacrificing style, The menu, How to prep, Picking a theme, and Where to shop.

I’ve saved highlights on Instagram (the circles in my bio) of more details, prepping, flower arranging, close-ups of the DIY, etc., and live moments.

It brings me joy to entertain and create events, and it was an honor to be creative for such a special occasion. I enjoy doing this and showing my love through food and entertainment. I hope that shows in all the details.

Today, I am recapping a little bit of the shower and sharing some entertaining tips. I hope you enjoy this Post.

Tables setting 

Table settings set the whole tone and theme of the party. After you’ve settled on the party’s theme, this should be your next focus: picking the linens, the table place settings, flatware, and the stemware. Round or rectangular tables and Chair style. This will help you make the choices for the following steps: The flowers, the decor, the menu, your invitations, and the tables help set the tone of your party.

Round tables/ white wooden chairs

White linens

Gold and white dishes and Gold flatware

Lots and lots of baby’s breath

White flowers/ crystal vases/upon gold chargers

White candles with crystal and gold candlesticks

Pearl strand and loose accents

Diamond Napkin Rings

Gold Champagne buckets on every table 

White and gold place cards

White dual-sided frames with engagement photos

Pearls & Prosecco Bridal Shower

Dinner Menu

Food is served on all-white serving platters and bowls. The same color serving pieces give the buffet table a polished and professional look. Menus printed for tables and the buffet

Dessert table

Dessert table: Dessert tables are a fun way to add drama to a party; whatever the theme, you can find candies, treats, and fun display pieces to match your party. I went with an all-white theme for a Pearls & Prosecco Bridal Shower. White desserts and candies were served on all-white serving pieces and stands.

Handmade candies and chocolate treats dipped in pearls. I made these a couple of days before and refrigerated them. I did the strawberries the night before. Getting creative and making a few handmade treats will save you money and create an impact on your dessert table. If you need inspiration, look on Pinterest for ideas that fit your theme. I often make candies and treats. I create them because they are simple to do with store-bought items you dip in chocolate and roll in sprinkles, such as pearls. 

-Pretzel sticks

-Strawberries 

-Rice Krispy treat hearts

-Cherries

-Oreos

– Vanilla wafers

Bakery Items

I wanted to add a focal point dessert, if you will, and thought specialty sugar cookies would make a pretty impact. And who doesn’t love a good sugar cookie? I ordered from one of our favorite local bakeries, Parson’s, in Bountiful. I ordered white sugar cookies with white icing decorated to look like roses, heart sugar cookies dipped half in white chocolate and the other in a white chocolate drizzle. 

Tip: When doing a dessert bar, you do not have to have every item, one per person per item. Not everyone will have dessert, and they rarely take one of everything. If it is a small item, they might have two or three; if it’s a more oversized Item like a full-size cookie, brownie, or cupcake, they’ll have one and maybe a candy. For instance, I order 24 specialty cookies from the bakery with 40 guests. With all the other desserts to choose from, it was the perfect amount. (please remember if you only have one dessert choice, make sure to order 1 for each person attending)

Candies

White chocolate Reeses peanut butter cups

Butter mints in solid white

Processo Bar

All champagne flutes rimed white frosting pearls…I created four signature prosecco flutes.

-Clear rock candy= Sparkle Time

 -White cotton candy= Fly High

– Fresh Berry = Berry Pellegrino Mocktail

It’s all about the details.

Details don’t have to cost much; they require creativity and maybe a little DIY. Below, I am sharing some tips, things you can collect to help make your entertaining easier, and places to shop.

Tips: 

-Look through what you have around the house that fits your theme. Maybe you have something that could work, but it needs to be spray-painted.

– Champagne and wine bottles – for vases and candle holders

– Collect serving pieces in white or crystal; this makes creating a beautiful buffet, charcuterie board, or dessert bar easier. 

Shop for out-of-season items or check out sale sections for things that could be used multiple times.

 

Items you will always use for parties, dinners, and events

Candles and candlesticks

Vases

Platters, cake stands (not just for cakes), great risers, perfect for other desserts and great for appetizers 

Frames- for signage photos, and great for party theme art

Linens and napkins

Chargers 

Pearls & Prosecco Bridal Shower

Details that make a difference

Bubble machine $20 a fun detail & impact for entry, especially for pearls and Prosecco theme.. (cute for wedding Bride & groom exit)

Ribbon  

Lighting

Invites & Signage

place cards

food signage

linen napkins and napkin rings

Music-Play list that goes with your theme.

Shopping resources:

Etsy

Amazon

Homegoods

Target

Dollar store

Walmart

Micheals

Zurchers Party store 

Rentals

 

Pearls & Prosecco Bridal Shower

Photo wall backdrop Idea:

A great way to save money is to create your Photowall; I used the items below to make one for this event.

I have a white ruffle shower curtain with gold sequin fabric. Years ago, I purchased a photo backdrop stand and got my money’s worth out of it. I’ve used it for Birthday parties, events, school dances, etc. I own this one HERE.

White, clear & pearl balloons & Gold confetti Balloons to create a balloon feature (I purchased an electric balloon pump) are affordable, and you can use them repeatedly. Purchase it HERE

Strings of pearls mixed in with the balloons.

Party Favors

The Party favors were a pair of Pearl earrings in mini champagne bottles. I purchased the pearl earrings in bulk, hand-punched the earring cards with a scallop paper punch and heavy card stock, and pierced the holes to place the earrings on the card. I added metallic grass to look like champagne placed in bottles and tied with the tag.

Flowers

Tip: You can save a ton of money if you create your flower arrangements or get help from a friend who can. Another huge money saver is purchasing flowers from Trader Joe’s or Costco. They have great flowers at excellent prices. If you live near a flower mart, that is another beautiful option.

What I used:

All white flowers, Hydrendyas, roses, camimile 

Lots of Baby’s breath

I planned this spring when I planted all the pots for our decks, porches, and entryways and potted them with all-white flowers to match the bridal shower theme. Thinking ahead and filling all of our potted plants to match really help

Entertaining

I genuinely love it… the planning, preparation, creating… DIY, shopping, Etc. But it’s a massive amount of work and many long days and nights. Prepping ahead of time makes a huge difference. The more you can do and set up before the event day, the better and easier it will be for you. I have a great list of things you can do before the event and more tips HERE.

Quotes I love

“People will forget what you said. They will forget what you did. But they will never forget how you made them feel.”

Maya Angelou

“Quality is never an accident. It is always the result of an intelligent effort.”

“Hospitality is simply an opportunity to show love and care.”

 

Live life stylishly and look good at any age.

Hello Pretty Ladies,

Are you Cheering on the USA? Today, I share a fun and easy Patriotic Lime & Berry Spritzer. Make it a cocktail or mocktail..either way, it’s festive and yummy. Perfect if you’re throwing a closing ceremony party

I hope you had a great July! It went way too fast, with the 4th of July, Our Son’s Birthday, a couples getaway, and a girls’ trip! We’re in wedding month; our oldest gets married on the 24th. I can’t believe how fast a year went by. Exciting times and a month ahead! 
Summer does need to slow down.
Patriotic Lime & Berry Spritzer Recipe

Today’s little catch-up

These blog posts are dedicated to helping you out if you’re interested in shopping the sale, and my LTK shop Nordstrom collection tab is shared HERE.

Cheering on the USA  Cocktail Idea

I’m sharing a fun and easy Patriotic Lime & Berry Spritzer. Make it a cocktail or mocktail—either way, it’s festive and yummy. It’s perfect if you’re throwing a closing ceremony party. Something I love about this cocktail is the fruit-filled ice cubes; they are complete and pretty, making cocktails easy. Adding flavor to your ice cubes takes away work later, and you can make several cocktails at a time. 

Patriotic Lime & Berry Spritzer Recipe

Recipe:

Raspberries 

Blueberries 

Mint

Limeade (I like Trader Joe’s sparkling limeade)

Raspberry sparkling water 

White rum 

You’ll need larger ice cube trays; I like the round citrus-shaped ones, an Amazon find I use often. Grab them HERE

Making the Ice Cubes: Fill the trays with raspberries, blueberries, and a mint sprig, then top off with raspberry sparkling water and freeze.

Creating the cocktail:

Place 1 or 2 ice cubes in your glass, add a shot of rum if making a cocktail, pour limeade over, and stir. 

(If you don’t like your cocktails very sweet, use 1/2 limeade and 1/2 Raspberry sparkling water) It’s that easy

To make it a mocktail, add ice cubes and limeade.

If you don’t have Trader Joe’s sparkling limeade, use regular limeade in the freezer section, make it as directed, and then add sparkling water.

10 Favorite Things I am Loving

10 Favorite Things I Am Loving

Hello, pretty ladies,

I hope your July was a good one. I feel like I just asked you about June! These summer months seem to fly by.

Our oldest son is getting married on August 24th, and I know it will be here so fast. As we’re getting closer, I’ve been emotional several times. Maybe this will help me have my emotions under control by the wedding week. 

I haven’t done a Favorite Things wrap-up in a while, where I share what I have been loving and wearing or using on repeat. I thought sharing for our monthly blog hop with Dawn, Cindy, and Suzanne today would be fun. They’ll be sharing their July Best Sellers, favorites for summer, or things they love. Their blogs are linked below, so head over to them and see what they shared today.

—Things I am loving lately—

I could say “Favorite Things,” but my True favorite things aren’t “things”… It’s family, & friends, entertaining/hosting, making a home a home-cooking, gardening and traveling, and wandering boutiques, bookstores, and antique stores. 

So, with that said …. Things I am loving lately will do! Ox

10 Favorite Things 

Fashion

Eric Javits, budha girls, jeffery campbell

Eric Jervits bag, Budha Girl Bracelets, Jeffery Campbell sandals

Bags

Eric Jervits has a straw/rattan bag that comes with a clutch. The quality is impressive. It is fully lined, and the leather trim detail makes it sturdy and a piece you can use season after season. It truly goes with everything from pool attire to shorts and dresses.

Amazon Seamless Panties– If you love skims or hanky-panky thong panties, you’ll love these seamless packs of the BEST buttery-soft panties for under $19. They stay put, don’t roll, and are genuinely seamless—no panty lines, no matter what you wear! I give these as gifts to my girlfriends who like things, and they adore them and always purchase more! This is a genuine BEST SELLER for me.

Shoes

Jeffery Campell Sandals– Linques Flip Flop: A polished, link-shaped buckle and diagonally slanted square-toe top, this sleek flip-flop is crafted from smooth leather. Jeffrey Campbell consistently delivers a range of edgy, on-trend footwear, from bold shapes to versatile basics. Year after year, the fun-loving brand’s fresh, lively silhouettes delight, inspire, and never disappoint. I genuinely love his shoes, and these are a pair I’ve been living in all summer. They go with everything from shorts to linen pants, jeans, and sundresses. If you pack correctly, you could take these on a trip and go from pool to evening with these shoes.

Jeans

Flats Styled from Day to Night with Ally Shoes
Wit & Wisdom
Flats Styled from Day to Night with Ally Shoes
Walmart
4th of July Outfit Inspirations: Over 40

Oversized Cuffed Jeans– I am completely obsessed and have several pairs in various washes, brands, and price points. I’ve always loved a cuffed boyfriend’s jeans and even a straight leg. (to be honest, I’ve been wearing for years, and it’s always been a great way to wear jeans that might be just a hair too short because of my height. I could cuff them and make them look right. It always felt a little French-inspired. You can get wide-leg, patch-pocket, and straight-leg denim in various washes and price points. Let me tell you, I am in love with them all. I am sharing below all the styles I’ve been wearing on repeat for the last couple of months, and I even have this Risen pair in a lighter wash arriving tomorrow.

If you wear only one stack of bracelets, I will pick these! They go with everything and can even be worn in the pool. Wear it all year long. 

For the Home

things I am loving

A steamer for clothes—a clothes steamer with fast wrinkle removal and a large 300ml tank. It is ideal for all fabrics, is easy to use, is compact, and is a portable travel garment steamer. I use this every day! It’s easy to use, fills, and heats up almost instantly.

Just Call me Martha With a Hack… Biscuits and Ber Just Call me Martha With a Hack…

Biscuits and Berries recipe is what “is this “Sunday’s in the Kitchen with D’Arcy”

I had heard good things about @magnoliatable  Buttermilk Biscuits,
And I’ve been wanting to try them. 

I thought that would be a good quick hack to serve them for a Sunday breakfast treat.

I brushed them with 🧈French Butter and French flaky Salt… (makes all the difference) you could eat them just like that…

I served them with Homemade Whipping cream and my Strawberry sauce along with Fresh Berries🍓🫐🌱

So so good… this would be a great brunch side dish or dessert as well.

These biscuits would make a great mini breakfast sandwich- egg cheese and bacon✔️
Or my Family’s  favorite-Biscuit’s and Gravy 

❤️save to reference later

“So whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God.” – 1 Corinthians 10:31

I hope you have a day full of Gods Blessings and good food
