feeling floral {sweet p & fi}

Who loves boutique shopping? raises hand
Who loves the price tag? slowly puts hand down and runs away

Seriously though, I LOVE boutique shopping. The one of a kind pieces and pretty details always get me. Unfortunately, most of the time I see the price tag and think… hmmm...maybe not. 

I heard about Sweet P & Fi about 5 months ago and could not wrap my mind around the affordable pricing PLUS the amazing inventory of clothes and accessories. And to make it even sweeter? It's a local, online boutique! So when you order from Sweet P & Fi, your items are shipping directly from Omaha! If you know me, you know that nothing gives me a greater thrill than supporting local businesses…whether that be boutiques, farmers market vendors or small coffee shops; I truly love to know that families are supporting themselves by doing what they love! 

When Molly contacted me about picking out a piece from her most recent inventory, I could not contain my excitement. In fact, I already had a few items bookmarked when I saw the Instagram post and readily emailed her back. I am so excited to share this look with you! 


If I could put a single word on my favorite picks of this season, I would have to say "floral." It's almost always the first thing that catches my eye! I love that I can wear this top as a summery look with white jeans, or transition into a Fall look with jeans and booties. 




Shop this exact shirt HERE! (PS - It comes in white as well!)

My other favorite part about Sweet P & Fi are THESE earrings!
No earrings, in the history of my earrings, have ever gotten as much stage time as these beauts! They go with everything. Literally. I wear them to work, on date night, to weddings… seriously, they can do no wrong. And did I mention they are $10?


And my personal favorite? They are SO lightweight! As in I'm not ripping them of and throwing them in my purse halfway through the other day. Just to drive my point home, I fell asleep wearing these earrings the other day. How often does that actually happen? ;)



I have purchased several staples from Sweet P & Fi over the last few months, and all of them transition SO wonderfully from the office to dinner with friends. And my favorite part? I am still getting fashionable items without breaking the bank!

BUY THIS TOP


The seasons are changing and that always gets me excited to add a few new pieces to my regular rotation! This sassy cardigan is my next purchase!

Now, for the BEST part! Sweet P & Fi is offering a discount to Sweet & Modern readers!!!

I can't wait to see what you find - but I know it will be perfect. Happy shopping!

local: kleveland clothing

HAPPY FRIDAY!

I am especially excited because I get to talk about Kleveland Clothing today. I love local businesses and do my best to shop local whenever possible. Kleveland Clothing actually came on to my radar via Instagram and I was like {WOO!} Another local shop to browse. Granted, they have been around since 2014 - but - in my defense, I live a solid 30 minutes from here, and I don't make it to this part of town as often as I would like.

Seriously though, I couldn't believe how much different this area looked…and for the better!

Kleveland Clothing is located in the Blackstone District, which is 36-40th & Farnam in Omaha. And let me tell you, Blackstone has a lot going on! I am planning a future "day date" that includes lunch, a little bar hopping (Corkscrew Wine & Cheese… yes please!) and of course, shopping at Kleveland Clothing.

I love that they have everything from your basic Nebraska baseball shirt (loving this one) to a formal dress from the 1960s. They house current trends mixed in with vintage pieces - and I am seriously loving it. It's a one stop shop! Not to mention they have tons of accessories to spice up all of their merchandise. Also, FYI, they carry mens clothing as well!

Next time you are in the vicinity, swing down to the Blackstone District  and take a peak around! While you're at it, stop in and browse Kleveland Clothing! It's unlikely you will leave empty handed!

Cindy at Kleveland Clothing is wonderful and set me up in true Kleveland Clothing style. The Sienna blue dress is my absolute favorite! The color and open back details are so perfect for a hot Summer day. And guess what… you can order it HERE! PS- it's only $35!!

Happy Weekending!
