Shoes for Spring + Summer

I always get asked about spring and summer shoe options are are not espadrilles. You guys know that I absolutely love my espadrilles and ALWAYS wear them, but I think you are right and I need to mix it up a bit. I have compiled some great options and other favorite pairs to wear this spring and summer. Obviously, I included my favorite espadrilles but also included other options with and without heels so I hope there is something for everyone! Remember for any of the Sarah Flint pairs you can use my code for $50 off your first pair: SARAHFLINT-BALIBBYM.

ADD TO CART

  Happy March and welcome back to the blog! It has been awhile since the last post- school and getting covid again got in the way. But, I am on break this week so I am dusting off some drafts and writing some new posts! I have been loving these new arrivals from J. Crew. This gold button/Lady Jacket era style that has been in for this winter/spring season is one of my favorites. It is such a classic look that will always be in style and a great investment piece for your wardrobe. I am really eyeing the striped one but also the pink gingham one is adorable and I normally do not gravitate towards pink! I love all these great basics too- button-ups, sweaters and a great cut of white jeans. I am so excited for warmer weather ahead and fun spring outfits!

THE PAJAMA EDIT

 I am not big into new year resolutions or goals, but I do love a mood board for some fresh inspiration. One thing I have on my mood board this year are the Sleeper feather pajamas. Yes, this feels random but I am loving the cozy chic vibe of it all. Last year, it was super popular to "romanticize your life" and to continue with that in the new year, insert the iconic feather pajamas. Matching pajama sets, in general, just make my every day experiences feel more elevated and even fun so I bring you the 2023 Pajama Edit. I think my love for pajamas and matching pajamas is not a secret. I think every pajama I own is a set. Also, I am sharing pajamas while everyone else is sharing work out sets, which I think is a way better start  to a new year :) THE PAJAMA EDIT:  Blue Short Set  |   Gingham Feather PJs  |   Robe  |   Navy Set  |   Headband Gingham Top + Bottoms  |  Blue Striped Pant Set  |  Blue Trellis Top...

What I'm Loving: 2022 Favorites

  Hello and happy one week into the new year. Every year I like to think through what my favorite things of the year were- what did I wear the most, reach for the most, hobbies I loved, books I read. So enjoy my favorites from 2022 :) FASHION: The Nap Dress : She is an icon and closet staple at this point. I love how versatile the nap dress is and how easily I can style it so many ways. It is also a piece that can be worn all year round with the right accessories like tights and sweaters in the winter! They now make them with pockets which as been incredible. Ily HHH 💙 Natalie Flats : These are my most worn pair of Sarah Flint's. Whenever someone asks me what pair of SF's to start with I always recommend these flats. They have that Sarah Flint comfort and are such a classic style and silhouette that you will wear them forever. I say they run true to size. I have a code for $50 off your first pair of shoes from SF: SARAHFLINT-BALIBBYM.  Clogs:  I think I will be a clog ...

What I Packed for the Holidays in NYC

  I am headed into the city for a few festive days to kick off the holidays! New York during the holidays is one of my favorite times of year. For this trip, I tried to think about what would be chic, cozy and warm and would transition well from day to night. I will wear my over the knee boots during the day and can easily switch them out for my black platforms for our shows and dinners. I also wanted to feel a little festive in my outfits so we have some pops of plaid- like the tartan nap dress and headband.  NYC HOLIDAY TRIP PACKING LIST:  Black Jacket  |   Headband  |   Sherpa Jacket  |  Ear Muffs  |   Plaid Pants Feather Shirt  |   Black Dress  |   Black Turtleneck Mittens  |   Black Platforms  |   Black Boots  | Plaid Nap Dress Happy holidays, and #dontforgetyourpearls  SHOP THE POST: JavaScript is currently disabled in this browser.

Small Business Gift Guide

  This gift guide is always one of my favorites to put together every year. I love shopping and supporting small businesses, and the holidays are the perfect time of year to support your favorite small brands! Some of my favorite small businesses have grown so much over the years that they might not be small but smallish now! (I have still included them here:) ) I also seem to forget a few brands when I first write this post, so I will keep adding as I think of more. For this post, it is less of a strict guide, and more a list of my favorite small brands with a few favorites from each one. A lot of these businesses are having sales this week, so now is the time to shop! Hope this is a favorite for you too! - Dudley Stephens - Currently 40% off their site!!
