Friday’s Fun Finds and Living Well Save or Splurge

Fall is officially here, even if the thermometer hasn’t gotten the memo yet. 😂 This week I’ve got a fun mix for you: a clever chair for when the grandkids come to stay, the candy Martha got all of the Hog-Eye girls hooked on, and my before-and-after pickleball secret. Mom’s back with her picks (she’s got good taste, I can’t argue with that), and I put together some game-day outfits that don’t involve wearing a giant team logo. Plus, don’t miss Save or Splurge, because some of those Amazon finds are SO close to the real thing. Grab your coffee and let’s shop!

Fun Finds

J.Jill Contrast-Trim Pullover + Jogger

This matching set had me at burgundy. It looks pulled together enough to wear out of the house, but it’s still basically permission to wear comfy clothes all day. Win-win.

Latitude Run 3-in-1 Sleeper Chair

Wayfair 3-in-1 Sleeper Chair

Now THIS is clever. It looks like a regular chair, but it unfolds into a single bed when the grandkids come to stay. Perfect if you don’t have a dedicated guest room—or if you do and somebody has already claimed it. 😂

TOMS Desert Wedge Ankle Bootie in Taupe Suede

TOMS Desert Wedge Ankle Bootie

I love a heel, but I’m increasingly unwilling to suffer for one. Lol. This suede wedge gives you a little height without making you regret your footwear choices two hours later.

Tommy Bahama Salt & Sea Wash Wave V-Neck Sweater

Tommy Bahama V-Neck Sweater

This is the kind of sweater I reach for over and over in the fall. Easy, relaxed, and cute with jeans without requiring a whole lot of thought first thing in the morning. Comes in other pretty colors.

BarkBox Bright Original Dental Kit

BarkBox Dental Kit

Hickory, Joey, and Traveler may not care about fresh breath, but I certainly do. 😂 These dental chews come with toothpaste, so the dogs think they’re getting a treat while you know better.

Fenty Beauty Fluid Flex Foundation Brush 165

Fenty Beauty Foundation Brush

If my foundation is going to settle into every line on my face, I’d at least like to make it work for it. This flexible brush is made to blend foundation smoothly for a more natural, airbrushed finish.

Ballerina Farm Farmer Protein

Ballerina Farm Farmer Protein

I’m always looking for easy ways to sneak in a little more protein without turning breakfast into a major production. This one can go right into coffee, oatmeal, or a smoothie.

Epsom-It Soothing Nerve Lotion

Epsom-It Soothing Nerve Lotion

Who has time to soak in an Epsom salt bath? Apparently not me. I use this BEFORE and AFTER pickleball, and you can use code LW4S15 for 15% off!

Bubs candy

Martha’s Candy Find

My friend Martha introduced the Hog-Eye girls to this candy on our Kentucky trip and OH. MY. GOODNESS. I’m passing the problem along to all of you now.

Selling Fast at Lands’ End

Two cozy fall layers that are going quickly at Lands’ End. Grab your size while it’s still around!

Lands' End Women's Drifter Rugby with Woven Collar Sweater

Drifter Rugby Sweater

I love the preppy look of this one! The stripes and crisp collar make it look a little more special than your everyday sweater, but you can still throw it on with jeans and go.

Lands' End FeatherFree Quilted Insulated Jacket

FeatherFree Quilted Jacket

A lightweight jacket that actually keeps you warm without making you look like the Michelin Man? Yes, please. This navy one would go with practically everything in your fall closet.

 
Margie’s Picks
Splendid Mini Heart Toss Satin Silk Robe

Splendid Heart Robe

Mom found this pretty cranberry robe and I like it too! Plus it’s on sale.

Splendid Lemon Tennis Flora Pillowsoft Short Set

Splendid Tennis PJS

Well, obviously the tennis print got my attention. 😂 This one is made from Splendid’s Pillowsoft fabric, which sounds exactly like what I want to wear when I have nowhere to be.

UNTUCKit Wrinkle-Free Classic Fit Isabella Shirt

UNTUCKit Wrinkle-Free Shirt

Wrinkle-free AND specifically designed to look good untucked? They’re speaking my language. This would be especially good for travel when you want to pull something out of the suitcase and actually wear it.

UNTUCKit Faux Suede Amalia Skirt

UNTUCKit Faux Suede Skirt

This camel faux-suede skirt just screams fall. Add tall boots and a sweater, or pair it with the navy shirt Mom picked—and you’re done.

 
My Style: Game Day
Women's Stripe Midi Sleeveless Shirt Dress from Macy's

Red & White Striped Shirt Dress

Game-day colors without wearing a giant team logo across your chest. 😂 This would be so cute for those early-season games when Mother Nature hasn’t gotten the memo that it’s supposed to be fall. Also available in blue and white.

Blue and white striped top

Scalloped Striped Top

This is such a cute way to do team colors without looking like you raided the college bookstore. It comes in several color combinations, so hopefully your team is represented!

Old Navy SoSoft Crew-Neck Cropped Sweater

Old Navy Sports Sweater

Okay, THIS is my kind of game-day outfit. It says SPORTS, which is vague enough to cover football, baseball, pickleball—or whatever game I happen to be yelling at that day. 😂

Lands' End Women's Drifter Sports Icon Sweater

Lands’ End Football Sweater

Once it actually gets cold, this is what I want for game day. It’s festive without being over the top, and I’d wear it with jeans and sneakers whether I was headed to the stadium or watching from the couch.
