Some Of My Favorites—A Few Of These Would Make Great Gifts For Mother’s Day

I have grown to love this time of year when nature can’t make up its mind what season to be. lol The mornings are chilly with temps anywhere from the upper 40s to the mid 60s. Every morning is truly a surprise. Being a lover of warm weather, I eagerly watch the weather station in my office and kitchen, growing excited as I see the temps tick up. Sometimes I cheat and look at the Weather Bug app on my phone to see what the expected high for the day will be, but it’s more fun to watch the temps on the screened porch gradually increase digit by digit, guessing what they’ll be by noon and then again, by 3:00. Anyone else play that game? (Weather station is available here: Weather Station.)

I saw this beautiful sweater yesterday and thought what a wonderful transition piece it would be for spring. I would even wear this sweater during the summer months when dining out since restaurants can be so chilly.

 

Love the beautiful colors! It would also make a great Mother’s Day gift. This sweater is currently on sale 30% off here: Beautiful Cardigan, Perfect for Spring and Summer.

 

Since I’m not a fan of wearing sunscreen on my face—just don’t like how it looks or feels, I always wear a hat if I’m going to be outside for a while. I thought this one was so cute, love the style! You’ll find it on sale here: Summer Hat.

 

This bag would be so cute paired with the hat above! I like that it’s made with real leather and no PU (fake) leather. This bag is currently on sale here: Raffia Bag.

 

This adorable pink baseball hat makes me wish I had a sailboat! I love the color! It would be great to take along on a beach trip this summer. It’s also on sale right now, you’ll find it here: Cute Pink Baseball Cap, Sailboat Motif.

 

There are so many cute things available in this spring kick-off sale, including this pretty beachy barrette. You’ll find it on sale here: Beachy Shell Hair Barrette.

 

Madras has always been a favorite of mine. Many years ago, I had a complete Ralph Lauren madras outfit—skirt and top. I loved it wore it often. This skirt is so cute and looks great paired with a white top. The skirt is on sale here: Madras Skirt. I think it would look great with this top: White, Ruffle Collar top.

 

Love this double-breasted, blazer-style sweater! It looks so sophisticated, like we should be getting ready to board our chartered yacht or perhaps a luxury cruise ship. 🙂 I bet it would look amazing with white slacks.

 

It is currently on sale here: Sweater Blazer.

 

I’ve shared this top before, but since it’s on sale and one of my favorites, I wanted to share it again. I love, love, love how long-sleeve linen shirts look with the sleeves rolled up. It’s such a sophisticated, effortless, classic style! They are my go-to shirts for summer outings when you never know where you might end up. Go into a restaurant where the A/C is blasting—time to roll down the sleeves! Long-sleeve linen shirts are so versatile for moving from indoors with the sleeves rolled up, to outdoors with the sleeves rolled down for sun protection on the arms. Again, I much prefer that over wearing sunscreen. This linen shirt is available in a five different colors. The aqua is my favorite; it makes me long for a beach trip! You’ll find this beautiful line shirt on sale here: Pretty Aqua Linen Shirt.

 

If you missed it, this top that I shared recently is on sale. It’s available in several different patterns. This floral design with the coordinating placket and cuffs is my favorite. So pretty! Styles like this are classic and never go out. This is a shirt you’ll be wearing for many years. You’ll find it on sale here: Beautiful Top, Light Blue, and Coral.

 

Another gorgeous transition piece, I’m in love with this beautiful, embroidered jacket! I like how it can be dressed up or down. It would look great with pretty white slacks or casual denim jeans! You’ll find it currently on sale here: Beautiful Embroidered Floral Jacket.

 

Happy spring shopping!
