Simply Found #66

Happy April! I hope you all had a lovely Easter Weekend. We went away for the weekend (our first vacation in over a year!!!) to Georgia for a long weekend, and it was heavenly. 

As always, for this week's edition of Simply Found I am sharing some of my favorite recent purchases, things I am up to, and items I am eying. 

  • Weekend Trips to Greyfield Inn on Cumberland Island: What is better than a nice vacation?! We drove to Georgia to stay at Greyfield Inn for Easter weekend, an old estate on Cumberland Island (an 18-mile island on the coast of the edge of Florida and Georgia.) The property is stunning and simply so peaceful and relaxing. See a few more images on my instagram, here.

  • Loungewear from Donni: Simple nights at home (aka every night for the last year!) calls for great loungewear. Donni, founded in 2009 by Alyssa Wasko, was created to celebrate comfort and essential pieces in your wardrobe. While the items might be more of an investment than sweatpants from a big box store, let me tell you, they are so worth it! These are some of the softest and coziest pieces I own. My go-to items from Donni are their Fleece Sweatpants and the Polar 1/2 Zip (with the pearl detail, swoon!)

    • *If you are looking for a more budget-friendly idea - I also love this black sweatshirt with a ruffle detail that I bought from Target for less than $30!

  • Travel Tumbler from Stanley: I am full-heartedly obsessed with this 40 ounce insulated cup from Stanley Brands. (Do I realize it is crazy to be obsessed with a travel cup, yes! Do I care, no!) It just occurred to me the other day that I have never shared my love for this cup - which is shocking, as it is always by my side when I am home. Drinks just stay cold in it for so long and it is so big (but the tapering at the bottom means it still fits in your car cup holder!) This size is currently sold out but expected to be back in stock in May.

  • Scarlet Demi Flat from Margaux: I have said it before and I will say it again, the Demi Flats from Margaux are mainstays in my closet. I truly have more pairs than I feel comfortable admitting (I think at least 5+ pairs!) They are just the best everyday shoe to wear, from running errands around the city to a work meeting, brunch with friends, or dinner out; such a versatile and comfortable shoe. This bright red scarlet color just came back in stock and they are making me excited for spring!

    • If it is your first time ordering from Margaux, use code Nan10 at checkout for 10% off. (Discount code only applies to your first order with the brand.) I find Margaux shoes run true to size; just follow the size guide they provide.

  • Heather Chadduck Beach Towels by Weezie: I have long admired Heather Chadduck's beautiful interiors and fabric line (see her stunning Southern Living Idea House here), so I have been anxiously awaiting her collaboration with Weezie Towels. (P.S. want a small world moment - Heather was staying at Greyfield Inn with her family last weekend the same time we were there, it was just a joy to meet her in person; she was just as sweet as can be.) These limited edition beach towels just launched, and I am sure they will fly off the shelves, so don't waste any time before placing an order. My mom just ordered a whole bunch of these beach towels in Navy for our home in Maine! (Photo by @davidhillegasphoto)

  • Needlepoint Pillows by Furbish: One of my go-to online shops for excellent home decor is Furbish Studio founded by the amazingly chic and fun Jamie Meares. What's more, Furbish sells amazing quirky, statement-making, fun needlepoint pillows - aka a home decor product right up my alley! While I am usually busy stitching needlepoint canvases and making my own pillows, I regularly have readers or friends ask me where they can buy needlepoint pillows that are already done (aka buy the needlepoint pillow without stitching it yourself or doing any of the crafting.) Furbish is your answer! :)

    • EXCLUSIVE DISCOUNT CODE: The Furbish team is kindly offering you all an exclusive discount - use code nan20 for 20% off sitewide!
