The Coveted

April 23, 2015 by jessica 6 Comments

This week, I’m coveting:

A gold turtle for our coffee table. The shell comes off to reveal a hiding place for essentials and, better yet, it’s only $15.
A flirty little dress from Shopbop’s ONE by collection. It looks awfully short on the model, but it’s worth trying at $58.
Gedebe’s embellished bags. I can’t stop daydreaming about this new-to-me brand, even if the bags are out of my price range.
Fringe sandals! They also come in gold and navy, but the white is my favorite. J.Crew is also offering 30% off, so it’s a good time to snag them. (Edit: I see that the white pair is already sold out. This pair isn’t quite as cute, but they’re only $20. Might be worth a try.)
This DVF top. It would look so good with shorts all summer.
Silver sunburst earrings from Kenneth Jay Lane.
An affordable squash blossom necklace. Have you ever looked for vintage ones on eBay? They can go for hundreds of dollars. I’m totally fine with a new costume version.
Not Pictured: This pretty perforated tote.
Not Pictured: My favorite Prada sunglasses are 30% off today. You can see them in Monday’s post.
Plus: Have you taken advantage of Piperlime’s discount yet? There’s an extra 40% off sale items with code SALEONSALE. I couldn’t resist this Lele Sadoughi necklace.

Mother’s Day Giveaway

April 21, 2015 by jessica 7 Comments

Mother’s Day is just around the corner on May 10, an annual reminder to shower your mom with the kind of love and attention she bestowed upon you for all these years! And why stop with mom herself? A beloved aunt, an expecting friend, a new mom, and your grandmother all deserve a little extra attention on the special day. After all, motherhood is the most difficult–and selfless–job any of us could have!

This year, treat the most important woman in your life to a keepsake she’ll treasure forever: a delicate charm necklace from Helen Ficalora. Helen is known for her timeless stamped pendants and the “Mom” version couldn’t be any more perfect for the upcoming holiday. I’m thrilled to share that one reader will win a sterling silver “Mom” charm on an 18″ fine chain to give this Mother’s Day. This prize is valued at $95.

Enter with the Rafflecopter widget below. Good luck!

I’m actually wearing the “J” charm in yesterday’s post. As you’ll see, the size of the pendant is subtle enough to wear every day.

Tropical Prints

April 20, 2015 by jessica 15 Comments

I wish I could say it’s good to be back home, but it’s really not as lovely as our vacation in Florida! We had such a relaxing week taking day trips to nearby cities, lounging oceanside, and dining (and drinking) at various restaurants. Despite getting back Saturday evening sun-kissed and sleepy, I set an alarm for 1 a.m. to await the debut of the Lilly Pulitzer for Target collection. Did anyone else stay up for it? I know many ladies had problems accessing the site (including Kristin Davis) and I was extremely lucky to find my must-have items. I was only able to add items to my cart if I clicked the quick shopping link on the mobile search page, instead of the product page. I managed to purchase the pineapple serving bowl (it was the one item I would have thrown elbows for in-store 😉 ), two of the giraffe-print pillows for our bed (lucky Dave), a cosmetic case, a pair of pom pom shorts, and this top. Honestly, I felt ridiculous making these purchases in the middle of the night, but everything was sold out when I stopped by Target around 8:15 a.m.

Top: Milly x Banana Republic (old, also love this tank)
Shorts: J.Crew
Bag: Tory Burch
Necklace: c/o Helen Ficalora*
Ring: Lulu Frost
Sunglasses: Prada
Sandals: Sam Edelman (I wear these on repeat all summer.)
Lips: Stila “Fiore”
Nails: Clinique “Hi Sweetie” and Essie “In the Cab-ana”

Bon Voyage

And we’re off! Dave and I are headed to sunny Fort Lauderdale, Florida for a week of beachside lounging. We also have plans to visit Palm Beach, West Palm Beach, Boca Raton, Delray Beach, Lauderdale by the Sea, and Hollywood. (Phew!) If you have any recommendations, please share them on Instagram or Twitter! (Seriously, any hidden gems for vintage or thrift shopping in Palm Beach would be a dream!) I’m planning to steer clear of the blog while we’re away, but you can always see what we’re up to on Instagram or Snapchat (find me at bedknobsbaubles).
