Guess what?!  Our three day weekend is finally, finally here!  And, in honor of the occasion, this could very well be the first round up of items where I am equally in love with each and every thing.  I want to make all of these amazing things mine and stat.  Obviously I have prints and colors on my mind this week, but at the same time I can’t help but love a great neutral tote or ballerina flat.  I have heard incredible things about Yosi Samra flats, but have yet to own a pair.  This might be my chance – the price is right and I love the t-strap and stud details.  I hope you all have a fabulous three day weekend and get some much needed relaxation – I think we all need it?!

P.S. A bunch of you asked about Molly’s clear pouch from yesterday’s post… you can buy it and other sizes here at Truffle.  They’re our absolute favorite!!! AND they’re offering 20% off from now through Memorial Day – use the code MEMDAY!

TGIF and to all a good weekend!  I’m looking forward to staying in town for this three-day weekend and doing nothing but catching up on emails and laying low.  Maybe getting in some pool time with my new Supergoop SPF.  Probably going to throw on this new maxi for a night out.  Hoping to finally finish this book.  Hope you all have a fab weekend no matter what you do!

One sale I’ll for sure be hitting up… Madewell has 20% off tees, tanks, and shorts plus free shipping on everything – use the code SUMMERNOW.  I have this tank, these shorts, and this bikini in my basket.  Pleaseandthankya

Picking Favorites for Pretty Mommy

Thursday, May 23, 2013 MBM

APoT_PrettyMommyPicks_130523

We all know that between Sally and me, she is the expert when it comes to online shopping.  It’s not not my thing to page through endless sites, hunting for unique, fresh finds to wow you all with.  Big retailer websites don’t entice my shipping appetite – but smaller online boutiques always have my attention.  I like that while the assortment might be smaller, the shops are typically carefully curated with very special things that aren’t saturating every other site.  When our friend Michelle, owner of one of our favorite online boutiques, asked if Sal and I would be interested in picking a few favorites from her Pretty Mommy shop I told Sally, “Sit back, I got this one.”

Michelle asked us to find 5-10 things we loved from the shop and while I could have just said “everything” and called it a day, I really, really love the ten items featured in our curated section of her site…  A little bit about why I chose what I did:

.01:  The perfect structured and simple summer tote for running errands and taking to and from the pool/beach.  I love the sunny yellow interior!

.02:  Oversized t-shirts are a mainstay for my spring/summer wardrobe and this sophisticated tie dye one is beyond cool.

.03:  I want this to wear as a cover-up during the day and with white jeans at night.

.04:  A ”statement necklace” that wont weigh you down… I love the neutral color and organic materials!

.05:  When it’s hot outside, the air conditioning gets cranked up inside… I always keep layering pieces on hand to fight the summer chill and would love to have this bright and happy Matta scarf in lilac or aloe!

.06:  The must-have sandal on my summer wish list!  This shoe is the talk of the town for it’s easy look and beyond comfortable feel.

.07:  These bangles are timeless perfection and I love the story behind them… We want to start collecting them!

.08:  The ideal summer dress style that can be worn casual (with leather flip flops) or dressy (with strappy heels).  I’m dying over the organic pattern and bright hues!

.09:  A chic hat is a must have – especially to keep the Texas sun off our faces – and we are so in love with the chic shape of this plank hat…

.10:  Is there anything more luxurious than linen cocktail napkins, especially when accompanied with a summer cocktail?

Thank you, Michelle for inviting us to curate a selection of faves from your already beautifully curate shop!!  Be sure to check out the other “curated by” selections by Natalie Holbrook of Nat the Fat Rat and Alyson Brown of Unruly Things!  AND – Michelle wants you all to find somethings YOU love from her shop so she’s giving all A Piece of Toast readers a 15% off discount to any order – just use the code “apieceoftoast” at checkout (:
