Wear it with Barrett: Weekly Roundup 4.29.18

April 29, 2018 By Barrett K

Happy Sunday, friends! I hope you all enjoyed the shopping break last weekend! I took the week off to enjoy my BIG Birthday! Yikes! 40 is a hard pill to swallow but I am so thankful and blessed, so I’ve decided I have to embrace the number! My friends and family went above and beyond to celebrate my Birthday and it has been the best Birthday! So, I decided to do a HUGE blog post today to share lots of fun new finds and tons of amazing deals too! NORDSTROM is having quite the sale and I am excited to show you my picks! ANTHROPOLOGIE also has some great promotions right now, all of the details are below! I’m also sharing two really exciting things that I am using that I think everyone needs.  Head to the end of the post to see all of the information!

EXCITING AND NEW

I am always on the lookout for cute sneakers and I found the cutest blush pink pair that were just released! I love these new SNEAKERS!!! They have sold out at a lot of stores already, but I found them for you! They are extremely comfortable and I think they are really pretty!

I wanted to find a pretty dress to wear for one of my Birthday dinners and this DRESS was exactly what I was looking for! All of the lines trick your eyes into thinking that you look even better than you do! Ha ha! Really though, I felt so comfortable in it and it’s just an easy, soft dress! I’m wearing it with my favorite HEELS that are currently on sale, 40% off!!!

The weather is still chilly in the evenings here, so I wore this knit MOTO JACKET.  I can’t say enough about this jacket, it’s soft and cozy, it hits at just the right length and it’s really flattering! I didn’t have anything like this, so I am excited to add it to my wardrobe!

I fell in love with this DRESS! The square neckline is beautiful and it’s actually a soft grey background with blue and pink embroidery! It’s perfect for the Spring! I ordered my normal size but if you are between sizes, you can size down in this one! I’m wearing it with the cutest WEDGES! I really love these, the footbed is comfortable and the cognac leather goes with just about anything! They also come in rose gold which would make a good neutral too! They are almost impossible to find because they have sold out so quickly!

You guys know I love anything metallic and this foiled floral T-SHIRT fits the bill! I’m wearing it with my favorite DISTRESSED JEANS that are such a good price and the gold MILLER ESPADRILLES that I adore! They are actually really comfortable because the footbed is soft.  They are also available in silver! I think they are a fun, casual new option that I will get a lot of use out of!

These embroidered CHINOS caught my eye too! I think they are so cute with a white t-shirt, or they would look great with a chambray shirt too! They are on promotion right now too! Yay! Love them with the MILLER ESPADRILLES!

Speaking of promotions, ANTHROPOLOGIE has 20% off of full-price denim right now! This is a great time to grab a new pair of white jeans for the Summer! They have an amazing selection of denim! Here are some of my favorites… the back of these WHITE CROPS are adorable!

Love the ties on the bottom of these WHITE JEANS!!!

These are the best basic WHITE JEANS! You can’t beat getting 20% off right now!

These are super cute BOYFRIEND JEANS!

STEALS & DEALS

There are so many great sale finds, here are my picks! You can click directly on the item to shop! There are also some new arrivals in this grouping!

 

Remember that I said that I wanted to share two amazing things that I am using? These were both recommended to me by two different special friends and I had to share them with you guys! First up, the BEST way to trim your flowers! A friend had these amazing FLOWER SCISSORS that she was using to trim the stems of her fresh flowers.  She was literally cutting through the entire bunch in one swipe! I couldn’t believe it! The best part is that one of my other friends bought these for me for my Birthday! Lucky me! They are a total game changer and something that would make a great gift for any woman!

My second tip has to do with natural deodorant… my amazing Zumba teacher uses this NATURAL DEODORANT, in the aloe delight scent.  I have been trying for a long time to find a natural deodorant that actually works and doesn’t give me a rash.  I’ve had lots of experiments without much success, until this one! It’s a rollerball so the liquid goes on easily.  The scent is very light and delightful.  I will say that I tried the unscented as well and it wasn’t as effective.  The aloe delight is amazing! If you put it on in the morning, you might want to reapply in the evening if you are going to exercise or something like that.  I have really been impressed and no rash at all!!! So exciting! So, I just wanted to share these two things with you guys since we are all friends here! =)

Hope you found some new goodies! Enjoy the rest of your weekend!

When designing our home the kitchen was such an important space. We spend a lot of time in there. I wanted it to be beautiful and functional. Here are some of my favorite features in our kitchen.

I’ve been on the hunt for faux flowers for my outdoor pots and I finally found a winner!!

🌸 comment SHOP and I’ll send you the links

I kept spending lots of money each season on real flowers and it was so much work keeping them alive!

I was looking for a better option and finally found one!

These faux flowers are
•BEAUTIFUL ....always in bloom
•ZERO MAINTENANCE ...no watering, fertilizing, etc
•BUDGET FRIENDLY ...these are priced great and you don’t have to replace them each season
•AND LOOK REAL. Some faux flowers are bad!! These really look good and unless you dig in there you’d never know they are faux

Each pack comes in a bundle of 2 bunches. Each bunch has 7 stems. You can plant 2 ways and I tried both. You can plant the bundle attached together and bend the stems (they are wired) to spread everything out....or....you can cut the bundles apart and plant the stems individually. I ended up doing that and thought they looked more realistic that way.  I ended up using 5 packages (10 bunches) for 2 large pots and 1 smaller pot.

I share both ways on IG stories so you can see the difference.

I also removed some soil and added floral foam blocks beneath, recovered with dirt and stuck the flowers in them.  I don’t think this step was necessary, but I wanted to make sure they were in there firm.

I’m so excited I now get to enjoy beautiful flowers with zero work 🙌🏻🙌🏻

Last year, Geoff and I added wires up this wall in a diamond trellis pattern. We planted creeping fig, but unfortunately, it all died this winter. I just planted Star Jasmine in its place so really hoping it survives. Texas weather is hard!. Thanks to a little AI magic I was able to create what my ultimate vision is. Fingers crossed it will look like this in a couple of years.

I just learned that May 3 is World Naked Gardening Day 🤣 I seriously can’t believe there is a day dedicated to this, but maybe lots of people need fences 🤷🏼‍♀️😉🌱🌿

Yall I recently discovered you could make fun art on ChatGPT using your own images for free! @ciarakenaston inspired me with her Beatrix Potter images and I did a deep dive and found you can do so many cool things!

🩵 Download ChatGPT if you haven’t already and have fun!

Upload an image. Can be of your home, your family, etc and then type in prompts to have it alter your image. You can play around with it and try all kinds of things but here were my prompts for the video

1. Beatrix Potter inspired illustration
2. Jan Brett inspired illustration
3. Vintage oil painting
4. E.H. Shepard inspired illustration 
5. Retro British cottage core style

If you do some be sure to share and tag me. I’d love to see them. Endless possibilities!!
