Designing a Life Worth Living

earrings

Wow! It's a miracle!

Fashion, Chloe + Isabel, lifestyleGabby Jacobsen

I’m blaming my old eyes for this sudden miracle … because it’s the little surprises in life that make a day just go better.

I put off ordering the Blooms of Kyoto earrings until the closing of Chloe + Isabel was announced because I just hesitated wearing these beautiful statement earrings to work. And those of you who know me, I rarely purchase any fashion that can’t perform double duty in my office. But I purchased this dress from J.Jill that has tiny white flowers and they just needed these earrings. So I took the leap - figuring “hey, they’re on sale and should go with this dress to maybe fancier events” … but lo and behold … I received them on Saturday and decided to put the dress on today for work. Looked at the earrings to see how they looked with the dress and the CONVERTIBLE PIECE AT THE BOTTOM SLIPPED OFF! Hello Dolly … now they’re the perfect size large studs! I’d missed the fine print (and numerous pictures) showing the convertibility. Duh …

My day has officially just gotten better. Now I may go back for the red! Only $34 while supplies last.

It's a GREAT month for a sale ... apparently!

Time’s Running Out

On 2 of the best sales of 2019

I wouldn’t normally hit this 2 for 1 on my social media … but I’ve been pretty busy and so here it goes.

Both Sseko & Chloe + Isabel are having sales!!

Two of the loves of my life have been put on the back burner for awhile, but that doesn’t make them any less amazing.

Chloe + Isabel is having it’s Semi-Annual sale until Saturday, January 12th. Up to 75% off some of some gorgeous styles from the last few years. These are not pieces that are going out of stock, but clearing out warehouse space for new spring styles.

I’ve always said that C+I is home to some of the most gorgeous designs backed by amazing quality and lifetime warranty. I still wear mine daily … you can be assured that each piece is heirloom quality and you won’t be sorry (especially at 75% off!)

Sseko is the latest love of my life and the Sseko Ssisterhood grabbed my attention with it’s story and handmade goods. I never leave home without a Sseko purse - and am holding my breath for all the new beautiful spring collection pieces I’ve pre-ordered. But, the Fall/Winter pieces are calling my name! I can’t believe there are so many gorgeous designs left in our warehouse - because with Sseko - often times when inventory is gone - it’s gone!

I actually can’t believe that the Eden Backpack is on sale! That baby is only $162! That’s incredible since it retails for $250! This is a HUGE fine leather backpack, pretty much good for any occasion. Made with so much love by artisans in Ethiopia. My favorite Sheba Purse is also on sale … the last time it was on sale I easily sold 5 of them! Everyone loves them - I carry mine daily.

Can we talk about the clothing for a bit - I never in a million years thought I’d wear a Kaftan but I have jumped in that pool with both feet! This is a beautiful dress that I have worn like crazy since I took a chance.

  • Summer with sandals - check!

  • Summer with wedges - check!

  • Wedding - check!

  • Swimsuit cover up - check!

  • Lounging around the house - check!

  • BBQ - check!

  • Church - check!

  • Flight - check! (can you imagine showing up for your next flight ready for the upgrade to 1st class looking fully put together in a beautifully comfortable dress?)

So pretty much this dress can go anywhere. Now currently available in the Monet and the Dandelion prints on sale.

I want to talk about 1 more piece - the reversible longer blazer in black/dandelion print. It’s worth checking out and adding to your spring/summer/fall/winter wardrobe. Great for travel and I could easily see this being worn with shorts or skirts or pants or a dress for any occasion. Perfect for office or a night out with the girls … on sale now while supplies last!
