We’re perpetually on the hunt for beautiful dresses that we’ll wear again and again, and the Saks website is always our first stop! There’s such a great selection from our favorites like Agua by Agua Bendita (worn above), Johanna Ortiz, Rhode, Sea NY and Silvia Tcherassi, plus we love finding pieces from new-to-us designers too. You can search dresses by occasion, length, sleeve style and even neckline details, making it super easy to find exactly what you’re looking for!

This dress has the most fun details, with side cutouts and ribbons that tie into darling bow accents. It’s perfect dressed up for a wedding or other special occasion with pretty heels and dramatic jewelry, but we also love that it could be dressed down with flat sandals and your favorite straw hat for a resort getaway.

Browse our latest dress and accessory finds in the gallery below and check out even more must-haves at saks.com, where the Saks Friends & Family Sale just kicked off. So many new styles are 25% off right now so it’s the perfect time to snap up your favorites!

Breakfast Meetings Made Easy with Walmart!

September 26, 2022/ Gen Sohr

We love finding ways to make our day more efficient and affordable…Walmart to the rescue with their online ordering and delivery service for groceries! We just used the service to get everything we needed for a yummy and colorful breakfast meeting. These triple chocolate muffins and chocolate chip cookie dough bites were our favorites, and they’re also the perfect easy additions to school lunches and kids’ parties! Walmart’s online grocery service is great for stocking up on your morning coffee must-haves, and don’t forget the milk and this frother that has been such a game-changer for our daily routine! It’s super simple to start an online order with quick delivery…just select “today” from the speed filter to find grocery and household items that are eligible for same-day delivery or in-store pickup.

Walmart is also our secret weapon when is comes to setting the table with the prettiest styles while not breaking the bank! These sweet scalloped jadeite dishes are a favorite go-to, as well as this stoneware dining set (available in three color options) and this great bamboo flatware. We also love adding a pop of red into our tabletop to keep things fun and colorful! You can see our latest tabletop and kitchen favorites below, plus even more don’t-miss-deals over at Walmart.com!

If you haven’t tried Walmart’s online ordering and delivery for grocery and household items yet, definitely give it a try! You’ll love this simple hack for stocking up on must-haves while saving time and money. New customers can save $10 right now on their first three delivery or pickup orders when you use the promo code TRIPLE10 at checkout ($50 minimum order, restrictions + fees may apply).

Welcoming Schumacher to Nashville!

September 23, 2022/ Gen Sohr

dress here and here / shoes / earrings / tablecloth fabric / plates / placemats / napkins / framed artwork

It’s the perfect time of year for alfresco entertaining in Nashville, and it was such a joy to help welcome Schumacher to Nashville with a dinner party held at Gen’s home! Schumacher is opening a new designer showroom and retail space in the Wedgewood-Houston neighborhood of Nashville on October 17th, so be sure to mark your calendars!

We’re so smitten with the custom table linens that were made using Schumacher’s Lansdale Bouquet, Capri Stripe and Santa Monica Ikat fabrics, with the prettiest Calcada Fringe hem detail! These were paired with the striped ruffle-edge placemats, matching napkins and hand-painted dinner plates from our Dondolo collaboration (which are on sale right now!), along with gorgeous glassware and mochaware vases from Reed Smythe & Company, and stunning florals by Ostara Gardens. The fun custom-lettered balloon (the perfect way to be sure not to miss the party entrance!) is from The Golden Slipper here in Nashville.

The most lovely dinner was prepared by Juniper Green, accompanied by outstanding wines from Wölffer Estate Vineyard.

The charming hand lettered menus were created by Chelsea Petaja, and Kayce Hughes gifted beautiful art pieces to the attendees.

Click below for details on many of the pieces featured during the party, and you see more P+P entertaining favorites here!
