Walmart just dropped REAL cashmere for women and men — and it’s only $45–$60.

I was putting together my LTK collection and one style/color is already down to only TWO left in the entire company.

There are so many beautiful colors and combinations, but they are going FAST.

This outfit is such an easy end-of-summer look from A New Day at Target. I love the bright blue top paired with the striped pants — comfortable, polished, and easy to carry into early fall.

I finished the look with my Susan Shaw pendant, which adds just the right touch.

I linked all four pieces in my LTK, including the pendant, so you can shop the full look.

Target has a sweater that’s been selling so fast! The open crochet-style weave is perfect for warm weather. I love the relaxed “sand and surf” vibe—it feels effortless, versatile, and polished at the same time.

If you like a little arm coverage without feeling hot, this is a great option. The lightweight weave keeps it comfortable even on warm days.

I paired it with these ocean-blue zip-front pants. They have pockets, are easy to care for, and the color is gorgeous for summer.

Simple pieces styled for an elevated everyday look—perfect for summer travel, lunch with friends, or everyday wear. 💙

Sizing:
• Sweater: Large
• Pants: Size 10
• Sandals: 9.5 Medium

My exact pants are older, so I’ve linked the closest current option I could find.

Question: Do you prefer tops that cover your arms while still keeping you cool in the summer?

As a former wedding planner, I’ve seen countless tablescapes over the years, but this Hester & Cook collection at Dillard’s Home completely stopped me in my tracks.

The oversized peony placemats, coordinating bow placemats, and floral table runner create a designer look that feels custom and elegant.

At first glance, I honestly thought I was looking at specialty linens.

Instead, these are beautifully designed paper tabletop pieces that make entertaining easy while still creating a stunning presentation.

Perfect for bridal showers, tea parties, garden gatherings, birthdays, luncheons, or anytime you want to make guests feel special.

Inspired by a beautiful Hester & Cook display I discovered at Dillard’s Home. I’ve linked similar entertaining finds in my LTK oversized peonies may be my favorite detail of all. 🌸

Would you have guessed these gorgeous peonies and bows were paper instead of fabric? Let me know below! 👇🌸

Timeless Style in London 🇬🇧👜

There’s just something about walking into Tory Burch on Regent Street in London… timeless handbags, polished classics, and that effortless elegance the British do so well.

This navy beauty immediately caught my eye — structured, refined, and the kind of bag that instantly elevates even the simplest outfit. Classic style never goes out of fashion. ✨

I linked some of my favorite Tory Burch finds on my LTK for anyone who loves polished, wearable luxury with a modern edge.

Which Tory Burch piece would you choose first — the handbag, shoes, or jewelry? 👜
