It’s Time for Fall Jackets?

Even though it’s just beginning to feel like summer around these parts, Kat and I have been off buying for our favorite season: Fall! This is the time I look forward to each year. Browsing through the Fall collections make me feel full of sprinkles and sunshine. Ha.

Last week we made another quick day trip to Chicago to do some buying.  Despite getting lost a few times, we filled our bellies with the most amazing sushi, which totally made up for the labyrinth that is Chicago. Anywho, here are three quick shots of what is in store for y’all!

 

IOTW: Gwenyth

Hey folks. Our apologies for the absent IOTW last Monday. We had a crazy busy trip to the city (more on that later!) and had to skip it. However, we are back full throttle this week and can’t wait to show you all the goodies we have been getting in. Kat gave you a little insight on Friday, but there’s even more to show you now!

This week we are offering free shipping on our dear friend, Gwenyth. She is a little cutie and can be paired with anything from casual to dressy.  Call or stop in to make her yours!

Cute as cake.

Apples and bananas,
Jenna

Birdie’s Favorites

Nearly two years ago (wowza!) when we first opened, we had a rack designated as “Birdie’s Favorite’s.” These were pieces highlighted each week as our personal favorites. Seeing as how we have been getting loads of new arrivals and are busy fighting over our favorites, we decided to reintroduce the favorites rack.

We have already seen some of these pieces find forever homes so make sure to stop in (or call) soon!

Loves,
Ladies

New Arrivals: Covet

Whew. We made it through Memorial Day Weekend without a hitch. Go LB!

This past week brought in a new shipment from Covet and my eyes immediately darted towards the My Tie Blouse. I. Am. Loving. It. I have dreaming about this piece ever since we saw it at Stylemax all those months ago. And now it has made itself a new home in my closet. Don’t worry, we still have some left for you!

Isn’t this tunnel fantastic? It’s a few short miles from my homestead. Who would have thought that a tunnel littered in graffiti existed out in the country. Well my friends, it does.

IOTW: Pearl Top

This week brings us a new line Olive & Oak. You may remember back in April when we semi-introduced this line to y’all. Well, we finally received our first mini-shipment and the pieces have easily found their place here at LB.

Here is the new Pearl Top, which has free shipping this week! Give us a call to order!

My new mode of transportation: a blue bus.

New Arrivals: Kain

Summer is upon us. I can feel it. Two good things about this. The first, being able to spend time outside with my baby bird has me feeling giddy. Second, it brings a load of new arrivals to LB! Today’s new arrival post is brought to you by the amazing Kain.

Not only is Kain reappearing here at LB so is Angeline! We love both of them so much. Here is Miss A in my most favorite striped dress ever:

Bonus!

Angeline’s new home!

Meet you at Angie’s (for a Pepsi),

IOTW: Memory Lane Tunic

A few weeks back LB received this little number from MinkPink. I have not taken mine off in that time. It has become my go to piece for all occasions. A day at work? Check. A weekend trip to FL for my little brother’s college graduation? Check. Running around town with my peanut? Check. Seriously. I have yet to come across a day’s worth of events that is not worthy of this lady.

Get yours now while the shipping is free!

 

Can’t believe my little brother is all grown up,

Take My Peanut to Work Day

So, who all remembers the most amazing get-out-of-school day titled Take Your Daughter To Work Day? I do!

Growing up, this epic day was all about being included in another aspect of my mother’s life. Seeing her in her work environment and becoming a part of that was a huge deal for me. I loved witnessing the daily tasks of a working office. Over the years I spent these days in my mom’s office filing paperwork, making copies, running the mail and fulfilling any other errands that were sent my way. At the time it was merely just a day that I got to spend shadowing my mom at work. Now looking back, it is so much more.

Yesterday, my little peanut followed me to LB and I put her on the grind straight away. And by grind I mean laying out a blanket and allowing her to play with toys. Just wait my child, that’ll change as the years go by. I did allow her to assist me in some web work. Here she is schooling me in her photoshop skills:

Bookkeeping, taking phone calls and photoshop. All in a day’s work.

Hard at work editing.

She is also schooling me in the ways of fashion. Mixing prints at the ripe age of six months!

Don’t forget to check out our new arrivals from Kain and KLD!

Bee-boop,
Jenna
