Happy Hour: Sparkles Everywhere

Tasha Crystal Pond Clutch ($278)

I spotted this clutch on the blog Coco + Kelley, written by fellow Gonzaga Alum and style maven, Cass Lavalle.  It’s so shiny and chic.  I would carry it to cocktail parties, weddings and formal events and then, display it on my dresser the rest of the time.

Looking for a less expensive way to sparkle?  Tasha also makes a sparkly gold clutch for $78.  This foldover clutch with raffia and silver has a great mix of textures.  And this McQueen-reminiscent clutch from LuLu Townsend is just $39.

But my absolute favorite if this Kate Landry box clutch with a black clasp and a melange of large rhinestones. Very old Hollywood.  It’s $95.

Want metallic but no sparkle?  This gold envelope clutch from Chico’s is $35 (so much style for the price), and

this silver frame clutch is really sleek.

It’s been awhile since I’ve featured a champagne cocktail, but this drink from The Domestic Mixologist is perfect for drinks with the girls on a random Friday or a bridal/baby shower.  It combines blood orange bitters, a sugar cube and a sliver of orange peel for a citrusy libation that could easily sub-in for a mimosa at brunch.

Happy Hour

The Find: A Versatile Sweater Jacket

It’s allegedly spring. However, for every minute of sunshine, there seems to be an hour of rain and gloom. So while I’d love to wear lighter spring pieces, it’s time to bring on the layers.

Business Casual Outfit: Linen Closet

And just like that, it’s April. Summer is almost upon us, and the retailers are filled with linen wares. Now, you know that I am usually unwilling to wear linen to work due to the wrinkles. But in this post-pandemic world, perhaps my mind can change.

The Range: Spring Blouses for Work (or Zoom)

Since Sloane was born, I’ve fallen hard into a black, white, and blue wardrobe. This is not necessarily a bad thing, but as spring blooms, I need a little color in my wardrobe (and probably a little print too). Here are a few tops that caught my eye for work.
