I’ve loved Lake Pajamas for so long, but this is my first set of their PJ’s in their DreamKnit fabric and it is buttery silky soft! Their Pima Cotton is incredible too, but if you want the silkier feel to your pajamas then definitely go with the DreamKnit! Turn on your JavaScript to view content SIZING NOTES : for this set in the DreamKnit I took my true size – for their pima cotton sets I size up one – for their nightgowns I size down one      View this post on Instagram   A post shared by Taylor Sarcastic Blonde (@thesarcasticblonde) I shared on my instagram this w ..read more

in honor of mother’s day (a little late, as always over here) I rounded up a list of a few things my mother taught me. I always hear her voice commenting on things in my head and started writing some nance-isms down in my phone. it’s been almost 2 years since she passed away and I still think about her and things I want to tell her every day. *this flowering arch in the backyard blooms every year during Mother’s Day  Nance-isms :  “Well, people in hell want ice water” is the perfect response to someone complaining. *I heard this appx 547,000 times in my lifetime. “what do people in ..read more

Melasma. Ugh.  The never ending skin battle. I’m finishing up my third round (once a year) doing hydroquinone for 3-4 months which always helps my melasma *so* much.  I’ve shared how it helps and the results in the past (this lengthy blog post shares more) and wanted to share how this year has been different because I used different products and a slightly different regimen. And even if you don’t have melasma, there are a couple of holy grail skin products I use year round even when I am not incorporating the hydroquinone! for those unfamiliar with melasma (lucky you!!) here is what ..read more

I’ve been meaning to do these weekly posts to summarize each week but I haven’t kept up with it, so here are some things from the last 3 weeks or so.  I hope you have a great weekend!  READING : I post my weekly reads in the book highlight on my instagram profile  I finished The Hotel Nantucket this week after having it on my list for months and months and it was the perfect beach read.  I’ve only read two of her other books and it was years ago, so I need to add more of hers to my list! I also finished another Christina Lauren novel, The Soulmate Equation, and loved it ..read more

I got my first (and only) pair of white sneakers 3 years ago and have never looked back.  Cole Haan makes hands down the most comfortable sneakers, and with their recent sale I stocked up on the exact same pair.  I’ve ordered a few others before and have always returned them because nothing compares to the comfort and classic style of my go-to pair. Cole Haan is still having a huge sale on so many great styles – I rounded up some favorites below.   // links to sneakers //  My funnel neck coat is an old favorite from H&M but I found some similar styles at great price p ..read more

the annual LAKE pajamas sale is here and there are so many amazing pieces up to 60% off, this robe being the cutest of them all in my opinion! Turn on your JavaScript to view content I size UP ONE for their pieces because they shrink a bit in the dryer!

I ordered 17 pairs of high waisted dark wash jeans in January. Excessive? Yes.  Necessary? Yes. Free shipping + free returns – HEYL YES. Who knew there were so many hideous pairs of jeans out there? The whole “90’s is back” mindset has been making shopping impossible. (Unless you’re interested in crop tops and ill fitting jeans) ONE pair made the cut.  One! There was also one runner-up but they didn’t have the wash I liked in my size. And I don’t care what anyone says, I LIKE SKINNY JEANS.  I haven’t stopped wearing my Uggs since High School/College even when they “went out of ..read more

A group of us went to Charleston last weekend for a girls trip and we couldn’t have had a better long weekend.  We truly didn’t want to leave!  What I would give to move there or have a vacation property there!! We stayed at the cutest airbnb one block from King.  We each had our own room, it had tons of space and charm, and was the perfect rental home for the weekend. It faced one of the most insanely delicious bakeries, too – Browns Court. We essentially went with plans to Eat and Drink and Shop our way through town, which we did We barely put a dent in our restaurant l ..read more
