Fallin’ for Barrington

Barrington Tote Black Watch Plaid St. Anne Black Watch Plaid Barrington St. Anne ToteI have been in love with Barrington Totes since the beginning of summer. I have secretly stalked their website and pinned many different fabric options for possible Christmas gifts. However, when their new Fall Collection came out, I fell head over heels for their Black Watch Plaid Collection. & when they offered to send me one, I may have jumped up and down like a little girl on Christmas morning. It is insanely perfect. I am obsessing over plaid right now and its plaid (enough said). I love throwing my stuff in a tote for work each morning and this bag has so much space that its super easy to toss in my laptop, planner and notebooks. I am really thinking I am going to need a summer print now too, because it is just too perfect. I haven’t even mentioned they monogram yet. & we all know monograms make it even cuter.

 

Also, ignore my horrible photos, I am realizing that it is getting dark much sooner thus my lighting has been super bad for all of my outfit pictures. Note to self: No more outfit pictures after work, must be done strictly on weekends when the sun is shining! I must have tried twenty different angles to try to show you how adorable this tote is. On that note, a little life update. My schedule feels like it has been insanely hectic the past week with no end in site. I am really hoping that it slows down, because I am exhausted and know that with the Holidays coming soon, it is only going to get busier. As this post gets even more random, I love the holidays and can’t wait to be around all my family. This weekend we got to see a ton of family for the funeral and even though it was a rough, it was so nice to just be around family all weekend.

    I am obsessed with plaid (I may or may not have a plaid button up shirt collection) and recently, I’ve been expanding that obsession by buying plaid shirts, so you bet I am highly coveting that bag or anything from the Black Watch Plaid collection right now! It looks amazing with your outfit! xx

  • Advent can be such a beautiful season, but it’s easy for the busyness of Christmas to take over. 🤍

This year, I’m being more intentional about slowing down, focusing on Jesus, and creating meaningful moments with my family and The Daily Grace Co.’s new Advent Collection is such a beautiful way to do that. ✨

The 2026 Advent Collection is officially here!

  • Getting a head start on fall at our family’s property 🍂🌳 There’s always something that needs to be cleaned up, and having the right tools makes those projects feel so much more manageable.

This DEWALT 20V MAX 12 in. Brushless Cordless Chainsaw Kit from @homedepot made clearing out branches and deadwood so much easier. It’s lightweight, easy to maneuver, and I love not having to deal with gas, fumes, or a cold start.

If you’re tackling your own fall projects, head to The Home Depot - the right tools make all the difference. 

PRO TIP: Use The Home Depot App’s Product Locator while you’re in store to make finding things so much easier (I’m talking aisle and bay numbers - so simple).
