Handbag Wishlist!

January 06, 2025/ Gen Sohr

Hi friends! On this first Monday back after the holiday season, we’re setting our intentions for the new year! One of these is to try to “shop” our own closets as much as possible, and limit purchases to a few great investment bags that we’ll wear and enjoy for years to come. We’re big fans of sourcing pre-owned luxury bags here at a fraction of the original cost…right now we’re on a vintage Diorissimo kick, and we’re also eyeing this woven straw style and this bucket bag in our favorite red. For new styles, this chic tote is a great value today (40% off and comes in both brown and black!) and we’re crushing on mini bags like this classic chain handle style and this drawstring pouch in the prettiest shade of blue. Happy shopping!

We’ve created a little under-the-counter coffee station setup at the P+P atelier with our new icemaker and our other must-haves for making our favorite iced coffee drinks, including our bamboo lid glass tumblers and a milk frother for the perfect foam, all contained in a wicker basket that we’ve labeled with handy metal clip-on labels.

Take a peek at our latest holiday present picks below and you can find even more great gifting ideas over on walmart.com!

Dresses For Every Occasion!

December 16, 2024/ Gen Sohr

Post sponsored by Saks Fifth Avenue

We’re always on the hunt for the perfect dresses, and this is the time of year when we’ve got festive holiday parties and upcoming warm weather resort getaways on the calendar, plus we’re adding everyday favorites to our closet. Saks is our longtime go-to when it comes to finding great dresses for every occasion, as well as the investment-worthy bags, shoes and accessories that we’ll turn to again and again.

This pretty red dress is such a fun new find…we love the drama of the off-the-shoulder style and full ankle length skirt! This ruched jersey dress is another new favorite – it’s such an easy silhouette that can be dressed up or down and we’re crushing on this wine color!
