Biscuit Season 2

Thursday, May 16, 2013 MBM

BISCUIT-SEASON2

Hot out of the oven… Warm, warm Biscuit Home loving… It’s Season 2!  Our bestie Bailey and her team at Biscuit have been working hard on the launch of their second line of prints and colors for what has become our favorite bedding line.  I stole the precious pillow graphic above from Bailey’s announcement post today and now I’m stealing her copy, too.  Because what you see above are the newest Biscuit players: Alaina (eiffel towers), Amber (ikat), Erika (stripes), Jenny (floral), Harold (constellation), and Mackenzie (bows) – and some old favorites in new color ways: Pete (plaid), Paul (faux bois), Grace (hearts), Katie (dot) and Joanna (bikes).  Sally and I got some sneak peaks early on of the goodness and we’re pretty excited that now all of it is available to buy on the site…  I’m thinking that the Harold sheets, an Erica sham, and maybe an Amber boudoir need to come live on my biscuit.  What are you all favoring?

Also… I know we told you all about some maje sales happening in yesterday’s post, but some new sales sneaked up and we can’t not let you know about them.  Tory Burch: good sale stuffs with up to 30% off, like this tee. Loeffler Randall: new styles added to their summer sale (up to 30% off) – these gladiators, I mean, come on. J.Crew: 20% off ALL women’s apparel with code “LOOK20″!  Someone please get this tunic. The Outnet: got in tons of new Equipment blouses – get you some before they’re all gone!

Summer in Dallas is hot, like really hot.  So hot that the only way you could be outdoors is if you’re fully immersed in a pool – up to your neck at all times.  No, I am not exaggerating.  During those dream-like times in this city, I wear as little clothing as possible.  Thin dresses, shorts, and tank tops are my usual uniform if I’m not in a pool.  In preparation for that kind of weather that is approaching, I am trying to get as much wear out of my white jeans and tunics as I can.  Over the years I have built quite the collection of white denim, but I swear that I wear every single pair.  Since they’re not like real jeans and can’t go unwashed between wears (I swear my white jeans get dirty before I even leave the house), its so nice to have backups hanging up in my closet.  This skinny pair from Old Navy might just be my new favorite.  I actually didn’t own a single pair of super skinny white denim until now, and I don’t know how I have ever lived without them.  They’re perfect for when you want to wear a looser top.  At $19 a piece (stealing?), I am definitely going to probably get a second pair.  I also, wanted them in the so cute micro-stripe, but they didn’t have my size:(  Will have to order online!

Right now, all skinny jeans at Old Navy are on sale for the $19 price tag – now is the time to stock up, no!?

Some Sales + Steals

APoT_Sales+Steals_130515

Lottsss of good finds this week, friends!  This is going to be short and sweet because its been one crazy Wednesday.  Crazy week, actually.  Molly and I have an even crazier weekend ahead of us.  I have to say, I think I am going to be glad when things slow down a little bit.  We were talking last night about how excited we our for our family beach vacation that is coming up in less than a month.  It will be so nice to just unplug and do nothing all day long.  I have been eying West Elm’s beach towels for weeks now and I really think that its about time I buy one now that they’re on sale.  They’re so classic, and with our trip and our apartment pool, we can always use a few more around our place.  I love the idea of monogramming it and giving it as a gift, too!  Both Molly and I were talking the other day about how this one pair of Tory Burch sandals that we both have and bought years ago have literally held up like brand new over the years.  It definitely makes me want to invest in another pair.  Knowing that something will last makes all the difference.  These come in the best colors, I don’t know how I would choose.  I think I am partial to the blue?  A great neutral, yet still fun.  If you’re in need of a pair of loafers, Dolce Vita’s Luna pair also comes in great colors and they’re a steal.  Just wheelin’ and dealin’ over here guys.  Nothing screams summer quite like eyelet, right?  Love the blue in this J.Crew top to pair with white jeans!  I’ve been wanting these striped shorts from ASOS from a long time coming now and I think its about time I make them mine?  So versatile and I live in shorts in the summer.  Top the shorts off with a wrap sweater and you’re set for this time of year:)  How about that insane sale going on at Barneys Warehouse?  I kind of had to stop myself from looking – the prices are just that good.  So many pretty handbags.  Molly and I both have been wanting one of these A. Wang clutches!

Hope you’re all having a happy Wednesday!  And thank you SO much for the tips on my TMI post yesterday.  Its good to know that I’m not alone in my weirdness/grossness (?).  I’ve decided to stick it out with my Kai and keep it in my purse during the day in the event that I need a little added freshness:)
