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 about some of my favorite things!
***************************************************
This package I received was totally a surprise and definitely a favorite this week! My friend Sam from Erin Condren sent me a box filled with Erin Condren goodies!!!! I’ve been using their planners for about 4 years now, couldn’t imagine not using them, and I get seriously giddy when my new one arrives!!! You can choose between TONS of different custom cover designs and customize it with your name or your business name. There are even some covers that allow you to customize with personal photos if you wish.
Click HERE to go check out everything offered by Erin (darling post it notes, stickers, markers, etc..)! Also, hop over to instatories sometime (search @sheaffertoldmeto on ig) today because I’m going to post a story around 5:30 a.m. showing you some of the goodies and the inside of the calendar. It will be live for 24 hours! Thank you Sam and Erin!

A couple of Fridays ago I told y’all how Modcloth reached out and asked me to check out their swimwear. I put a collage together of some one pieces and tankinis that caught my eye from several retailers (click HERE to see the collage), and I told y’all I had ordered #3 from the collage for myself. Well, it came in, and I love it! LOOK! HOW! CUTE! #Godblessrouching I also ordered this crocheted cover up (it’s only $39.99!), and it’s everything a cover up should be.
I’ll talk more about SuperGoop in a future post, but I’m a big believer in their products. This year they launched their sunscreen mousse (I’m a total fan and so is Carter). The refresh setting mist is a product I fell in love with last year, but they were able to correct some packaging issues, and this new bottle doesn’t clog anymore!!!! Yay!
Doesn’t this pic get you all sorts of ready for summer? I’ll be throwing all my sunscreens, cell phone, and lip gloss into the cute toucan pouch and throwing it in my beach bag when at the pool. And I’m still in love with my $12 sunglasses.

And I thought y’all might want to see me in it. I’m not quite ready to show y’all a full on swimsuit pic yet. I tried. I really did. But it’s just not happenin’ yet, people. I’m wearing it under the cover up, so use your imaginations. 😉

I love how the swimsuit has a large halter tie around the neck. It’s very Gidget-esque, if you know what I mean! If you don’t know what I mean, just move along. 🙂 The cover up is even cuter in person.
Click HERE for all of their swimsuits, but these are the ones that caught my eye. Just click on the picture of the swimsuit(s) you are interested in!
I’m so glad ModCloth reached out to me, because I’m not sure I would have checked them out for swimwear otherwise, but now I always will! Thank you, ModCloth!

LOFT is having a sale right now – 30% OFF of EVERYTHING (and 40% OFF for cardholders) with the code LOVEMOM. I ran into the mall yesterday, tried on a handful of things, and walked away with this chambray smocked yoke swing top (most excited about wearing it with white jeans and my fringe sandals that are ON SALE!!!!) and this gilded garden tie neck top (most excited about wearing it with my favorite denim shorts and some cognac sandals). The tie neck top does require a cami. Hopefully I’ll have pictures for y’all by next week.

In celebration of Mother’s Day, Anthropologie is 20% OFF with the code WOWMOM for the weekend. If you need a reminder for current things I have from Anthro…
I adore a buffalo check.
dress /turquoise with fringe necklace option / fringe pendant option / espadrille wedge option
This one is my new favorite because it is cute and INSANELY comfortable. Like it legit feels like you are just wearing a long t-shirt around the house.

********************************************************
I have posts of mine that are favorites…and in the last couple of weeks THIS one (love the bow back poplin top and peplum tees) and THIS one (still dying over the navy eyelet top and the bell sleeve tee) are definitely favorites. They give you great idea for spring and summer outfits, and they highlight some really fabulous tops!
*******************************************************
This face is definitely a favorite. I’m sorry…but my nephew is cuter than your nephew. #helloladies
Chris’s sister came in to town for a little visit, and I really enjoyed getting to snuggle this little butterball! I mean, LOOK AT THAT FACE!!!
***************************************************
Speaking of cute faces…this kid looks so proud here because he had just made an EPIC catch of a really high pop fly at pitcher this past Wednesday. He ran and then lunged forward to get it, he fell, and HE KEPT THE BALL IN HIS GLOVE. And I lost my mind yelling again.
He was in a pretty good slump for a good part of the season, so it’s especially sweet now when he gets a good hit or makes a great play! I’m so proud of this kid and his desire to better his skills. And listen to this, last night after the game he told me that the other team’s coach told him that he had good manners! I’m just as proud of those manners as I am of the amazing catch! 😉

And now it’s time for a sale collage. Because why not.

Okay, ladies! Listen up! I have an INCREDIBLE deal for y’all to end today’s post. Thought we should go out with a bang!
Check out these adorable pom pom scarves!
Regularly $40….but with the code STMTpompom, you can get them right now for $14!!!!
STOP IT RIGHT NOW! FOURTEEN DOLLARS.
Think about this: TEACHER GIFTS!!!! FREAKING ADORABLE TEACHER GIFTS. And of course you’ll want one for yourself. You totally deserve a pom pom scarf.
I teased this picture on facebook last night….
But if I know y’all (and I think I do), I knew you’d want to see the scarf on. And I aim to please. I mean. This is a cute scarf. Light, airy, and easy to style.
For size reference, I sized up to a medium for a slouchy fit in the tee. I’m wearing my regular size 27s in the shorts, but if you are between sizes, I would suggest sizing down in the shorts.

And look how happy the pink is!

And because I think you need to see a close up of the denim shorts again, here you go. I also really love these $39 ones. And if you prefer a little bit longer, check out these 5″ frayed hem shorts.
And y’all….here’s another idea that the Accessory Concierge ladies gave me! They told me it would work great as a swimsuit cover up. I came up with 3 different ways it would be darling as a cover up! Just pretend I’m in a swimsuit. And as long as you’re pretending, go ahead and pretend that I have a six pack and perky boobies.
Tying this scarf into these 3 different styles was so easy! And I’m sorry, but this is ADORABLE. #ifidosaysomyself
And since we are on the pom pom train right now, look at the pom pom tassel ! It’s SO MUCH FUN on beach bags, straw totes, Barrington totes or even a cognac tote like this!
And with the code STMTpompom, they are ONLY $10.50 right now!!!
I ordered both of these bags last week, but I haven’t yet decided which one I’m going to keep.

Shay Shull says
Give me ALL the Erin Condren, ALL the Carter in his Sox uniform, ALL the tassel scarves and ALL the cover ups! Girl, I cannot wait until summer!!!
heather says
Super cute suits from Modcloth that you found. I never would have thought to check them out! Also, I love that pom pom scarf as a beach cover up. Going to have to get a couple of those!
Michelle says
I want all the pom pom scarves, but my husband told me not to! 🙂

stacey says
I imagine that you look perfect and adorable in that swimsuit!
gail wilson says
Keep that stripe tote – so cute and it could take you into early fall. Any excuse to buy a new bag!!
Kelly says
First of all, totally thought that picture of your nephew was Carter’s baby pic! Serious family resemblance. What a doll!
Secondly, love the swimsuit! I do, however, think I will use this moment to air one of my sincere swimsuit grievances. CAN YOU NOT ROUCHE THE BACK? Would this kill you, retailers? I mean, I am glad you are here to help me disguise this belly situation, but then you just PUT MY BACK ON BLAST. All these swimsuits and all their flattering fronts and then just a nice, slick piece of spandex to lay over my back transgressions. Get right, y’all.
Sheaffer says
Kelly! I have THE BEST NEWS! My swimsuit doesn’t have rouching on the back…JUST THE FRONT! #asitshouldbe xoxo, Sheaffer 🙂
Becky says
Ugh!!! You are killin me with those poms!!! I want them so baaaaaaaaad. But I’m trying to be strong, I pinned it so I could come back later to them after my spending freeze is over for things that I don’t necessarily need. But I feel like I do NEEEEEEEEEEEd the poms 🙂 🙂
Robin says
Sheaffer, I love your swimsuit and cover up! However, I need an underwire swimsuit. I’m a 36 D. Can you offer any suggestions of cute underwire tankinis? Thanks!
Sheaffer says
Hi, Robin! I’ll be on the look out! xoxo, Sheaffer 🙂
Robin says
Thank you! I’ll keep tuning in!!
Joanna Parrish says
Loooove the chambray top:) what size did you get??? Thanks!!!!!! xoxoxo
Sheaffer says
Hi, Joanna! I got a small, which is true to size for me. If you don’t have a large chest, you might want to consider sizing down! xoxo, Sheaffer 🙂
Naomi says
Love your white coverup! And everything in the sale collage is so cute. ????
Erin Port says
Your nephew and son are cuties! Love that suit you picked! I am a one piece gal too so I felt instantly connected to you ha! Love that tassel from accessory concierge and pompom scarf!!!! Xoxo Erin
