What I Would Pack for a Winter Vacation

I am still home in Minnesota on break, and it is quite chilly here already. I was going to take a short trip somewhere warm during winter break, but we decided it would be best to postpone it as there is a surge in the pandemic. As the high temperature this weekend is -4 (yes below zero degrees plus a windchill..), I am trying to think warm thoughts. So here are my warm thoughts in the form of my packing wishlist/what I would pack for a winter holiday. Stay warm, friends! White Embroidered Dress Pearl Straw Bag - dressed up, fancy vacation dinners are my favorite part about being on holiday. This sweet pearl embellished straw bag is the perfect accompaniment to your going out look. Blue and White Long Dress - this dress is absolutely stunning, and I hear nothing but good things about the brand. Scalloped Straw Hat Sunscreen High Waisted Bikini- Top + Bottoms White One Piece Swimsuit Lace Up Sandals - use code SARAHFLINT-BALIBBYM for $50 off! I wear these sandals on repeat during the w...

Fall Wishlist

  Even though it is still 90 degrees in Indiana, we are getting into full on fall and pumpkin spice season. Fall is not typically my favorite season, but it is still fun to dress and shop for. I recently placed a few orders for some fall pieces, but there is still some on my wishlist. This year, dressing for fall feels a little different for me. I have been so in love with exploring the feminine, grandmillennial side of my style, that I want to incorporate it into my fall style. It is hard to bring all those blue and whites into fall when the fashion season tends to move towards darker colors and neutrals.  With that said, that classic fall, classic style/east coast prep is something I love! There are such great pieces out this season, and I love that they are bringing in those feminine elements of puff sleeves and some lighter colors. Puff sleeves have become one of my favorite trends that is not too trendy. Clogs should also be on your fall wishlist. They are back, and they ...

Warm Weather Wishlist

  After 2 weeks of below zero temperatures, I am ready for warm weather to be here. I am also excited that we are out of the polar cold snap and that it will be 40 degrees for a couple of days. A week ago, I started to online window shop for spring/summer pieces and decided to compile them here. I really love dressing for warmer weather and just wearing nothing but flowy, cute, comfy dresses. I did include the tan trench coat (which I already own), as spring can still be chilly here in Minnesota and I always advise light layers! So hopefully the trench gives you some warmer weather outfit inspiration. As you can see, most of my picks are in my favorite color way: blue and white. If you scroll farther down, I have included some bonus pieces I did not include in the collage 😊. Trench Coat | Striped Dress | Blue+White Dress | Striped Shirt Dress Sneakers | Woven Bag | Flats (use code LIBBY10 for 10% off!) Pajamas | RicRac Dress | Nap Dress | Blue Floral Dress | Sun Hat Flor...

My Wish List (more gift ideas!)

  I am sharing my own wishlist today. Every year, I feel guilty asking for things for some reason, but my mom/family always asks me for a list and to give a few suggestions! (Anyone else not like to pick out their own gifts haha? I just love the thoughtfulness and surprise element!) I tried to think of practical things and things that I will get a ton of use out of this winter and upcoming year. I think I did a good job of curating my own list, haha. If you need more gift ideas, or are not sure of what to ask for, this might be a great place to start! (you can also scroll down to shop the post!!) Check out my other Gift Guides: Core Gift Guides   |   Small Business Gift Guide Hydroflask : I drink SO much water every day. Lately, I have been using a big mason jar and straw combo that I fill up so many times per day. It gets annoying to keep refilling my cup, and I would really love a Hydroflask! I would also like a straw lid to go with it for very easy hydrating, hah...

Fall Wishlist

 Oh wow, did it get very chilly overnight here in Minnesota. As much as I want summer to hang around for a bit longer, I am too cold to think about a sundress and sandals, haha. I do think we will have a hint of some more warm weather on the horizon, which makes me happy.   I really feel like I do not need much for fall, but that is why it is called a wishlist! I definitely would like to have and cozy into the number one on this list! What is on your fall wishlist?  Chappy Wrap  Blanket I have been lusting after these blankets for a while now, and I hear so many good things about these blankets! They look so cozy and warm, and those are things I love, haha. I feel like I have several blankets that need to be retired because I am constantly wrapped in a blanket, and a Chappy Wrap seems like the best replacement for them!! I am always cold, and would love to snuggle in a Chappy Wrap! (I love this Navy Striped one too!) Camel Dudley Stephens Boatneck Fleece I have...

First Gift Guide of the Season!

I like to get a jumpstart on holiday shopping, and the holidays in general! I LOVE this time of year, and for me it starts November 1. The spirit, cheer, togetherness and magic is why I love this season. It is a cozy time with friends, family, cookie baking, and hot cocoa drinking. I love how it makes me feel so happy and on a high, so I am starting my first ever gift guide series! I absolutely love giving gifts, and making it special, so this has been fun for me to put together! I think I am going to launch gift guides on Mondays, but would you like it more if it were on Friday so you would have ideas before weekend shopping?! Please please let me know!! Also, if there is any kind of guide you are interested in me making, I want to know that too!! 🎄 To start, I actually am sharing what is on my wishlist. If your family, um mother haha, keeps pestering you for a list, maybe this can give you some inspiration. Hopefully it also gives you some inspiration for what to get to a 20-...

Fall Finds +Wishlist

Hello, friends!  Sorry I did not post on Tuesday, but I was dead exhausted from my sister's wedding this past weekend, and Tuesday was a travel day, so I just did not get to it. But today, I have jumped on the "Fall Wishlist" bandwagon, and am showing you what I have my eye on this fall! This fall has been an interesting season to dress for, so far, because it has been consistently in the 80s, so we can only wait patiently for actual sweater weather, ahah! What are you guys loving for fall, or lusting after for fall? Cozy Flannel Dress Sam Edelman Loafers in nut brown (on sale on Shopbop.com) Celeste dress in cream Pleated Midi-Skirt (I have this skirt, and OMG is it gorgeous!
