It’s Friday, so y’all know what that means! It’s time to link up with Erika, Andrea, and Narci to let everybody know what some of my favorite things are right now!
Let’s kick off today with some pictures at the baseball fields with this guy and his team last weekend. They had a pre-season tournament, AND THEY TOOK 1st PLACE!!!! Carter has a lot to work on (he’s in a bit of a batting slump, but don’t worry, we have private lessons set up for next week!), but he’s having fun and loves his team! 🙂 And the important thing is that he wants to get better and takes the initiative to practice, so we are proud of him for that!

Sale alerts are always a favorite.
Y’all. You’ve seen THIS SWEATER before, it’s still darling, and now it’s ON SALE for 40% OFF! It’s striped (love). It’s grey (love). AND IT HAS A RUFFLE (LOVE.). Now, although I often admire ruffles on shirts, I usually find that I can’t wear them. Ruffles usually add extra bulk around my chest, and I don’t need any extra bulk around my chest. But this ruffle is placed high enough that it doesn’t cause any issues! Hooray! I’m wearing a small in the sweater, so I think it’s true to size.

And here’s the same sweater in a flat lay for more of a Spring look!

I’ve got another sale item at 40% OFF!
Y’all know I love a plaid shirt. I have collected several over the years, and I still wear some that are over 5 years old. They are a closet staple that I find myself reaching for again and again. All of the plaid shirts I have are cut the same way. They all have collars and a squared off hem at the bottom. Well, not this one! I love the rounded (and frayed) hem of this particular collarless plaid shirt. I also love the colors. I’m wearing a small, so it’s true to size. I’m wearing it out here, but it’s not bulky, so it could be easily tucked in a half tuck as well. The shirt is from Treasure and Bond…and when you buy Treasure&Bond, Nordstrom will donate 2.5% of net sales to organizations that work to empower youth.

I hope all of you saw my WHITE JEANS POST on Monday! I shared some of my favorite white jeans, and I showed tons of outfits with white jeans. Here’s an outfit I showed in a fat lay on that post when I was outfit planning. I’m wearing a 27 in the jeans, so they are true to size. I’m wearing a small in the top, so it’s true to size as well.
tie sleeve blouse / necklace / earrings / white jeans / this year’s version of the UGG wedges / cognac clutch c/o. Live Fashionable
Don’t you just love the cute ties on the sleeves? I love the overall fit on this top. It looks good with regular denim, but I absolutely love it with white jeans.

So I showed this top with both white jeans and denim ankle jeans on the last Friday Favorites (click HERE for the post), and I know several of you purchased it (because I’ve received the e-mails that you love the top too)! I know we are all going to be wearing this top all summer, so I did a little outfit scheming for us. Top, shorts, and sandals all true to size.
OUFIT #1:
Everybody needs a great pair of denim cut-offs. And I mean, are you dying over the pom pom sandals?
eyelet top /will need best strapless bra ever / slouchy skinny jean shorts / sunglasses / neutral clutch / pom pom sandals

I have the same top and shorts for this next look, I just switched out the sandals and the clutch! These cognac slides are a great basic sandal for your closet. I recommend sizing up a 1/2 size in the sandals.

Do y’all remember THESE bracelets? You saw them last week, but I had several requests for the bracelet code after it expired. The girls at Accessory Concierge were sweet enough to re-activate it! The code STMTSTACKERS will get you the bracelets for $12 each (instead of the regular $20)! They come in TONS of colors and make awesome gifts!
********************************************
I was thrilled to announce last week that THIS bag was back in stock. Last year they only had it in black, but this year there are 4 NEW COLORS (see the ivory below)! And you can find a new similar necklace (ONLY $19) HERE in 3 gorgeous colors.
I have to say THE CREAM COLOR is perfect for Spring and Summer! And how fun is it that the inside is lined in pink!
**********************************************
I truly loved all 3 of my posts this week. In case you missed any of them, I have a little review!
Have you been on the look out for white jeans? Monday’s post had several WHITE JEAN OPTIONS for you AND tons of outfit ideas!

Conner has a work wear post coming up on Monday, but I thought you might want a sneak peek of one of her outfits since the sale is going on right now. How precious is this dress?!? Look at the cute little styling with the ruffled sleeve!
Here’s what Conner had to say about it: I’ll be honest – this dress is not typically something I would wear, but I’m so glad I added it to my cart! It’s stinking adorable! I mean, look at the ruffles on the sleeves…I die. The dress is shorter and I wouldn’t pair it with heels or even wedges. Throw it on with a pair of Sam Edelman flats and call it a day. I will wear this dress on casual Fridays at the office. It’s so comfortable! This is one of those dresses that you don’t have to think too much about accessorizing. I just put on my Stella and Dot Amala earrings and walked out the door. I’m wearing an XSP in the dress and I think it’s true to size. It’s machine washable, but I will lay it flat to dry.

And here are the other LOFT items she will be highlighting on Monday, in case you want to take advantage of the sale right now!

And last, but certainly not least, I thought we would end on a high note today. These block heels are everything you could ever hope for in a shoe. And they are ON SALE!!! And they are fully stocked, which pretty much never happens. They are truly fantastic. This neutral taupe color is gorgeous (but they also come in cognac, black, navy, and wine!), the height is just what I was looking for (tall, but still easy to walk in), and they really are incredibly comfortable. I’m so excited about this addition to my closet! Oh, and they are TRUE TO SIZE. I will be wearing them with denim jeans, white jeans, skinny cargos, skirts, rompers, and dresses! I like them SO MUCH, that the MUST HAVE status is definitely being tossed around. I’m telling you, they are great.
I’m wearing the $59 frayed hem ankle jeans from Wednesday’s post (you really need to see the full length pic and the review of these awesome jeans). And y’all! The leopard clutch is $45 and the sunglasses are $12! And the block heels are ON SALE for $59.90! Click HERE for the shoes.
You know what they say: Life’s too short, BUY THE SHOES. And eat the tacos.
I might have added that last part, but I think it pertains. 🙂 Have a great weekend, y’all!
Stephanie says
So you convinced me on those shoes. In fact, I just got 2 colors. Hahaha! And the leopard clutch might be on it’s way to me as well.
Erika Slaughter says
Your quote is exactly why we’re friends. So we can buy the shoes and eat the tacos together. XO And you sold me on those Third Love bras. I’m ordering asap!!
Lauren says
Your pictures with that eyelet top and your denim shorts have me all ready for summer. What is the name of the self tanner you’ve recommended in the past? My blinding white legs need some help!
Sheaffer says
Hi, Lauren! They are Dr. Dennis Gross tan towels. I get mine from Nordstrom! xoxo, Sheaffer 🙂
Narci says
There are too many adorable things to comment on! First the boys at the baseball game: precious!!! 2nd, that pink top with the shorts, and those sandals: darling! 3rd: those block heels! Yes ma’am! What great Friday Favorites!!
cassie {hi sugarplum} says
So many great favorites today, and all week! Not only do I now need those frayed hem jeans, but those tennis shoes!! And off-the-shoulder top! And new bras!!! And I can vouch for those block heels and that flutter sleeve dress…both are perfection!! xo
Kim says
Love this post. I love the sandals with the block heels. Do they run true to size?
Sheaffer says
Hi, Kim! Yes, totally true to size! xoxo, Sheaffer 🙂
Kristen says
Here we go again! Just ordered the block heels (do I need them in navy too?). Third Love bra on its way (I don’t even “need” a bra). What other damage can I do during triple points weekend!
J says
The must have boots are the most comfortable boots/shoes I own that aren’t sneakers! I have foot problems, and have surgery on one foot, but even with my wonky feet, I can wear these boots and stand/walk ALL DAY!
I just ordered Connor’s dress a couple days ago, but wish I would have waited for the better sale price!
LeAnn says
Hi, Sheaffer!! Loved your post. I was wondering if sometimes you could show us how your sister Conner’s clothes look on your body. Maybe some dressing room selfies to show it. I have the same body type as you(boobs and not real curvy anywhere else). Everything I like on you and order has fit me perfectly. I am concerned about ordering some of the cute clothes Conner shows us, though. Thanks!
Sheaffer says
Hey, LeAnn! I’ll see what I can do! xoxo, Sheaffer 🙂
Mackensey says
OMG that BP bag is the cutest! And I love that coral off the shoulder top. So perfect for spring.
April Parrish says
Love the first outfit!!! The top is too cute and looks great with that necklace!
I ordered the block Heels in black. Hoping they arrive on my doorstep today!!!!
Carter is so cute and growing up so fast!
Have a blessed weekend!
Sheaffer says
Awww, thanks April! I love when you comment! I remember you as one of my very first readers!!! Xoxo, Sheaffer 🙂
Lizzie says
Couldn’t resist those block heels….darn somehow another Nordstrom box is on it’s way to me! Justification-don’t have any summer sandals that aren’t wedges or flats-so I need them right?
ShootingStarsMag says
Thanks for all the fun outfit posts and sales. I really like the ruffle on that sweater, and your dress is adorable!

Sydney Couch says
Sheaffer, I am so upset. I ordered those adorable Steve Madden sandals, and anxiously awaited their arrival. I received them, and THEY WERE NOT THE RIGHT SHOES. Not the same brand, not the same size, not the same style, not the same color, nothing. I am so very disappointed. To add to it they are now out of stock in my size, so I am now without those adorable sandals. 🙁
Sheaffer says
Oh no, that’s terrible! I’m so sorry, Sydney!
Erin Port says
Yay for the baseball win – congrats! Baseball season is a little later for us northerners…you know still snow possibilities up here ;)! That last picture momma, dar-ling! Can’t say enough about the ruffle trend…love it! xoxo ERIN
Nicole Dhillon says
You are absolutely precious!! I look forward to your posts and seeing your smile and stylish self!! I have ordered so many things you have recommended and have never been disappointed!! Next on my list are those cropped jeans and Madewell top with the ties on the sleeves!! Too cute! I love the Barrington bags, also. I’m just trying to decide between the Monogram Navy Geometric, Navy Ziggurat, or the Axis (the faux fur one). Which do you think is more versatile?
Sheaffer says
You are so sweet! I have the navy ziggurat, and I carry it year round. It’s super versatile! Don’t forget to use the code PTMTSAVE10 for 10% off! Xoxo, Sheaffer 😉
Jennifer says
Hi Sheaffer !
Just wondering where your sister shops for casual (non-work) clothes? I love Loft for work wear, and I find Nordstrom sizes often too big on my petite (=short) frame.
Thanks!
Sheaffer says
Hi, Jennifer! She shops at LOFT for casual clothes as well…and I believe Old Navy because of the Petites section. She does like designer jeans and is willing to pay for those! xoxo, Sheaffer 🙂
Kristen says
Oh my goodness! So much cuteness on the blog today! I love the frayed jeans and the scalloped tote – just added them to my list of must-haves!
Sandra R says
Thanks for the bracelet code, I am going on to ordering my 4th one! LOVE THEM!
Question about the L&G Denim shorts. Is the cuff permanently tacked on the shorts or can they be unrolled. I love when the cuff is permanent, especially when they come out of the dryer. It is not in the description and hard to tell in the photo.
Thank you!
Sheaffer says
I’m so sorry I’m just now responding to this. The Lou and Grey shorts are tacked up, but just on the sides. Actually, I would tell you to hold off on ordering them. I’ve ordered a couple of more pairs to try that are quite a bit less expensive. I hope to have a review on them on Friday! xoxo, Sheaffer 🙂
Barbara Parnell says
Received my Third Love bra! Love it!! Thanks so much for the recommendation! Will be buying more!
Sheaffer says
YAY!!!! So happy to hear this Barbara!!!!! xoxo, Sheaffer 🙂
LeAnn Drumm says
Sheaffer, I am 5’5″ and ordered the cropped frayed edge jeans. The jeans don’t hit me on the leg at the same place they do you. They hit me right at my ankle. How are they shorter on you than on me? I am taller than you. Any ideas? Thanks!
Sheaffer says
Hi, LeeAnn! Hmmmmm…..Well, I have long legs for my height, so I guess that’s it? Sorry if they don’t work for you!
