Your Favorites & Mine on Sale: Memorial Day Edition
If there’s something you’ve had your eye on for the last few weeks, chances are you can find it discounted during the Memorial Day sales. I’ve been sifting through the markdowns, and found several of your favorites & mine, now on sale!

J.Crew currently has these “Classic Straight” jeans on sale in several washes. And you can save an additional 60% (!!!) off the sale price with code SUMMER. These run true-to-size; I’m wearing the 28 Petite.
And this long-running favorite sweater jacket is also marked down! (Runs large, size down.)
More of our favorites on sale…

A classic, lightweight cardigan is such a versatile piece to have on hand this time of year! Wear it buttoned, unbuttoned, draped or tied over the shoulders.
This one’s a cotton blend, available in several colors in Misses, Petite, Plus, & Plus Petite sizes.
Save 40% on 1 item, 30% on the rest of your purchase now with code SUMMER.
Vince “Venice” Slingback Flats
These cute & comfy flats are now 30% off in some colors (including this summery “Macadamia”) during the Nordstrom Half-Yearly Sale.


Banana Republic Cotton-Silk Sweater
I think this little sweater really punches above it’s weight. It looks (and feels) like a more expensive style. Several colors available, and it’s offered in Petite length!
This color is already marked down, but you can save 30% off full-priced styles this weekend.
These lightweight and versatile pants are now 30% off in most colors. Regular, Petite, and Tall sizes available.


My favorite sneaker style for travel or everyday. This versatile navy color is 50% off, just in time for your summer travels!
They’re included in the Nordstrom Half-Yearly Sale, with savings up to 50% off.
Everlane Organic Cotton Open Stitch Tank
I bought an earlier version of this tank a few seasons back, and it’s been one of my most-worn pieces! It layers beautifully under a jacket or cardigan, and adds a nice bit of textural interest.
I kept hoping they’d bring it back, and they did! This one’s organic cotton, available in Navy, Black, and Bone, sizes XXS-XXL. (I wear a Small). Save 25% sitewide during Everlane’s Memorial Day sale.


Brian is offering 25% off SITEWIDE this weekend, including all skincare, makeup and workshops/services! Save on some of my skincare “HG’s”…
Re-Creation Lip Treatment I lluminate & Contour Eye Treatment | Firming Neck & Chest Creme | Complete Skin Renewal Serum | Contour & Illuminate Moisturizer

A note of thanks…
to those who served our country in the Armed Forces, and paid the ultimate price. While I’m a pacifist and will always pray for peace, I recognize that the world would be a very different place today without their service, and am grateful for their courage and sacrifice.

Thanks Susan! I’m going to try the Everlane shell. I might spring for the J Crew jeans but need to look at what I have first. I wanted to thank you for your last personal note to us. It was a good reminder to me to make sure I have all our information written somewhere in case one of us passes. I’m truly in awe of how you navigated the last couple of years. All my best
Thank you, Susan, for your recognition of those who have served and made the ultimate sacrifice. I think we all pray for peace.
And, thank you for the good information regarding the difficult task of dealing with the death of a spouse or loved one. It cannot be easy and you have handled it with grace.
