The Gift of Time

Ok, so you can't REALLY give the gift of time (we wish!), but you can give an ultra chic monogrammed watch to keep TRACK of time!  We are so excited to feature our watches in Week 5 of our 12 Weeks of Christmas sale for 30% off!  You heard it right, that makes our watches just $40!  Stock up for everyone on your list this week; the sale ends on Sunday, Nov 3!

 

Happy Shopping!!

 

Fashion Friday - Fall Fever

Happy Friday!  It is finally feeling like fall here in the Southeast, and I'm pulling out my fall clothes!  Here's what I'm wearing today (possibly without the vest...it's still mid 70's)!

Now that it is fall, I have traded in my white jeans for cream skinny cords.  I'm obsessed...they match everything!  Vineyard Vines' westerly vest could easily be my uniform - I have it in 3 colors!  I finally gave in and bought Tory Burch boots during their Labor Day sale.  I can honestly say that it is the best $400 I have spent all year!

Now the fun part - ACCESSORIZING!  I am wearing our stainless steel boyfriend watch on my left arm, and I paired a gold-tone monogram bracelet with some of my Alex and Ani bangles on the right side.  I'm representing my my sorority with a stately necklace (also available with a monogram), and I finished the outfit with some simple pearl earrings, a must have for any girl (especially at just $12)!

What are you wearing this weekend?

Trick or Treat Refresh

It's that time of year...  The air is cooling down and kids are planning their trick or treat tactics.  We are busy prepping our house and making sure we have enough candy to hand out to the little princesses and monsters in our neighborhood!  But every year, I seem to forget about what I'm actually going to put the candy in.  The big day arrives and I scramble to find a suitable basket or bucket.  Not this year.  This year I am leaving the basket where it belongs and getting a fresh, updated market tote that I can use year after year!

 Our market totes come in two sizes - large and mini.  The large is a great size for handing out candy at home and for the bigger kids to carry their stash in. 

 

Our mini market totes are perfect for the little ones that can't carry as much, or for a small treat basket!

The large totes start at $36, including personalization, and the mini totes are start at $28 for solids with personalization!  We also carry some great prints like a floral print or orange chevron to add even more fun!

 

Get even more use out of your tote by packing a picnic for the pumpkin patch!

Pumpkin Spice Playlist

So this fall I have been drinking Pumpkin Spice Lattes from Starbucks like it's my job!  This morning's visit prompted me to create an Autumn Playlist on Spotify.  We hope you'll enjoy these warm fuzzy tunes while sipping on a PSL and browsing the Preppy & Co. website!

 

Weekend Wrap-Up

What a weekend!  I have been off the radar for a few days while I flew to Orlando to spend a few days with my little sister!  MKL took a job with a dancewear manufacturer in January and moved away from home.  I have missed my partner in crime and it was wonderful to have a Girl's Weekend again!

We started the weekend on Friday with some shopping.  I love a good outlet mall, but I have never seen anything like the Orlando outlets!  They seriously have EVERYTHING!  From Kate Spade to Fendi to Tory Burch, it is like heaven!  I was most excited about the Tory Burch outlet, and the prices were amazing!  MKL found the elusive Amanda riding boot that I couldn't find in my size last year, and I found a tumbled Reva flat in Navy for just $129 ($225 in stores - SCORE!!).  The employees were so nice and are willing to take phone orders...I think I'll be calling back for a clutch soon!

 

What better way to end the day than with a glass of Prosseco at Prato in Winter Park?

 

Saturday started with a visit to the Winter Park Lilly Pulitzer store for their 8th Anniversary!   They set up such a cute display with cupcakes, candy and champagne in the middle of the store.  Everyone who made a purchase received a free bangle in the Resort White Pop print, and the first 50 customers received a free prize.  As one of the first 50 customers, I popped a balloon and won a $100 gift card!  Thanks Lilly!

 

From Lilly, we went to the most magical place on earth, Walt Disney World!  MKL and I hadn't been to Disney since we were tiny, and we just had to do it!  I am so glad that we did, because we were like two little kids all day!  We went on all of our favorite rides like Dumbo and Small World, and even rode Space Mountain 3 times.  The end of September was a great time to visit and it wasn't too crowded.  Even so, I am Disney-ed out until one day when I take my own children.

 

We ended the weekend on Sunday with a trip to New Smyrna Beach.  MKL and I grew up going to this beach with our extremely large extended family growing up.  I haven't been back in a good 15 years and it was so much fun to see our old condo and all the restaurants we used to eat at with our family!  We just had to pick up a greek salad from Manny's for dinner.
