It feels like we have been saying this for weeks now, but spring is just around the corner! It’s almost time to take advantage of the outdoors and we’ve got a few tips for how to have the best afternoon ever. We shared some photos from this day with you guys on Valentine’s Day, but we thought it was worth revisiting.
For your best day ever:
Happy second day of Spring, folks! Yes, yes, we know that there is snow on the ground and that is the opposite of what comes to mind when Spring is finally here – but, we ware excited for this season in Richmond nonetheless. ( we are craving more outfits like this)
Spring is such an exciting time of rebirth and renewal and what better way to celebrate this (hopefully) upcoming warm weather than with a new perfume for yourself or a friend? We wanted to let you guys know that Saks Fifth Avenue Richmond at Stony Point Fashion Park is hosting a Bond No. 9 happy hour tonight, March 22, from 6-8. We are talking about a happy hour with two of our favorite things: champagne and chocolate covered strawberries!
For those of you that don’t live in Richmond, don’t worry, we have rounded up some of our favorite scents from Bond No. 9 in this blog post for you! And if you love girl boss companies as much as we do, you will be excited to learn that Bond is owned by a fellow girl boss. We love opportunities for women to support women!
Heres to finding the perfect Spring perfume and meeting you guys tonight at Saks! We love ya!
It was true love at first sight when I was perusing ASOS, looking for the perfect denim jacket. I immediately added it to my cart, without even looking at the price. Then, I cringed a little when I saw it was ~$200, then realized it was Tommy and thought, well it’s probably going to be worth it. So I ordered it and decided to take it for a little spin and see if I just couldn’t live without it.
Because, honestly, who doesn’t LOVE brunch?
We love Richmond for about one million reasons, as you all know if you have been following along with us for any amount of time. From the shopping scene, to the restaurant scene, the James River and beyond, our hometown is a seriously rad place. Our hometown pride is REAL, and we love being able to share the happenings with you guys here on the blog.
So here’s the deal! Next weekend, March 24-25th, As Told Over Brunch + The Massey Alliance are bringing us the third annual Richmond Brunch Weekend. Over 40 Richmond Area restaurants are participating in this epic weekend and all of the proceeds (15% of each meal) are going to the Massey Cancer Center.

All you have to do is show up for brunch and voila! you’re helping an important cause.

The Crystal Press has new denim for your wardrobe this spring: Evidnt Los Angeles
There will never be a season where denim isn’t on our minds. Whether it be the perfect pair of skinnies for every occasion (this striped number is still on rotation) or the denim skirt that can go from a Spring day to night effortlessly, there is no denying that denim is a major wardrobe powerhouse. That being said, you can find denim pieces at just about any price point but discovering the cuts and designs that suit your taste and style can be a challenge. This, my friends, is something that is my everyday challenge and I am so excited to share with you that I have found another denim brand that I love: Evidnt Los Angeles.
I have had back to back success with Evidnt online shopping orders. First I loved this black pair of their wide leg jeans and then, I had mega success with this uneven hemmed skirt I’m wearing in this blogpost. I love the asymmetrical hem and the strategic frayed edge that adds just enough flare to any outfit. I especially like that Evidnt’s price point is affordable around the one hundred dollar mark and under. You can’t go wrong with the casual yet modern look of Evidnt’s laid back California designs. See for yourself – you can shop Evidnt Los Angeles at Anthropologie, Nordstrom, and ASOS.
(and hurry because there are a lot of pieces on sale beauties!)
As I stepped out of the airport last night at 10pm into the pouring rain, it felt surreal that simply 10 hours before I had been basking in the sun in the Dominican Republic. But alas, isn’t that how it always feels when you come back from vacation? It’s like “duh duh duhnnnnnn” was playing in the background as our return soundtrack. The rain was just an added bummer on top of the vacation return blues!
