It’s no secret that I love a good Barbour coat. I just can’t get enough of them… and find that they’re perfect for layering for all kinds of weather. It’s really in the fall when they come in handy though. I have two Beadnells and wear them often. When I saw the Squire jacket, however, I knew I had to have it. It has the classsic Barbour look (and feel from the waxed cotton), but a bit of a more tailored look when zipped up with the perfect length. I love that I can sit on a bench and not have to worry as well as wear a pair of leggings with no problem.
I styled it two different ways, one a bit more outdoorsy and another a bit more city. This is the first look and we shot it in Central Park! This is seriously an outfit I throw together all the time, especially when I’m out walking Teddy in the mornings. I keep my jeans and cable knit sweater tossed over the chair in my bedroom so I can throw everything on and run Teddy outside for his walk. (Boots have been a must as we’ve been having some rainy/soggy weather.)
Nordstrom carries all the great Barbour styles (for men, too!) and offers fast, free shipping. The hardest part about outerwear is sizing, regardless of brands. I almost always go up a size or two so I can layer all the warm clothes for my Florida-thin blood; if it doesn’t fit the way you want, just pop it into the mail and exchange it. (I like being able to try things on at home with my clothes so I know exactly how it will look with my favorite sweater, for example.)
Right before freshman orientation, my parents took me back-to-school shopping and we all got Barbour coats. We were walking around a mall?outlet? and I saw the store, remembering the brand from your blog, and insisted on going in. My mom came out with a coat, my dad came out with a coat, and I came out with three, each in different weights. It wasn't the greatest thing for my wallet, or my parents' wallets I should say, but they insisted it was worth the investment, because the quality is wonderful! So yeah, I think I'm set for the seasons 🙂 I love the way you wore yours! -Audrey | Brunch at Audrey's
This outfit is so gorgeous! I love the barbour jacket, I have always wanted to get them they just look so cozy. Plus, the hunters ad the perfect pop of color!
Cute scarf! Looking forward to seeing the city version 🙂
Love the color of the Hunters, too. I had a pair, but due to the fact that I live in Tucson AND couldn't really drive in them, I had to say goodbye. Great for city-living I'm sure!
I wrote down a list of things I wanted to do for fun in 2024. I crossed off exactly zero of them (having a baby will do that to ya) and my only hope of accomplishing one would be to host a cookie exchange! I wanted to SO bad but I was also feeling exhausted after a long year (losing a dog, having a baby, running a business, etc.) and I didn’t know if I had hosting a party in me. I sent out the invitations and told myself I’d figure it out. There was no going back! It was SO FUN though and I will be doing this again. I feel like so much of the holidays as a mom is spent making the magic for kids. It’s Santa meet and greets, Christmas shopping, holiday pageants…. And then seeing Santa again (and again and again). THIS party was for us! 🥂
🎧 Five 5-Star Audiobooks I Listened to This Year ✨
Audiobooks have been my secret weapon for fitting reading into a busy life. Whether I’m folding laundry, driving to preschool drop-off, or squeezing in a solo walk, I can dive into a story at the touch of a button—and @Audible makes it so easy.

This year, I listened to some incredible audiobooks, but these five stood out as absolute favorites:
📚 A Tree Grows in Brooklyn by Betty Smith: A beautifully written coming-of-age classic. I didn’t want it to end and could absolutely see myself re-listening in a few years.
📚 None of This Is True by Lisa Jewell: A psychological thriller with unreliable narrators that kept me guessing the whole way through.
📚 Such a Bad Influence by Olivia Muenter: Part mystery, part family drama—flawed characters, a gripping storyline, and a chef’s kiss ending.
📚 All the Colors of the Dark by Chris Whitaker: A masterpiece of storytelling that starts as a serial killer mystery and evolves into something much bigger.
📚 Blue Sisters by Coco Mellors: A stunning exploration of sisterhood, grief, and imperfect people. The ending left me in tears (happy ones!).
#sponsored Bedtime with two little boys can be hectic to say the least! 😅 But I try to do what I can to make the transition smoother and help my baby get the best sleep possible. 💤 Desitin Maximum Strength Baby Diaper Rash Cream is the #1 pediatrician-recommended choice for diaper rash relief. The rich, thick formula creates a protective barrier on Rory’s skin, working for up to 12 hours to treat, heal, protect, soothe, and prevent diaper rash. And after bathtime, we use @aveenobaby Calming Comfort Lotion. This nourishing lotion, made with prebiotic oat, keeps my baby’s skin soft and smooth for 24 hours. Plus, the calming scent is perfect for winding down before bedtime. A little prep goes a long way in making bedtime easier for everyone! 🍼💤 Both are available on Amazon
Holding on for dear life this December ❤️ I have had SO MANY conversations this week with my friends near and far and we are *all* struggling. I have to say, just knowing it’s not just me feeling the pressure of “end of year-holiday magic- cold/flu/stomach bug season-darkest days of the year,” has made it a little easier to handle. Don’t forget to take care of yourself, too 😮💨 (Telling myself this because I could use the reminder too!)
If I hadn’t already mailed our Christmas cards*, I would be ordering a reprint because this first photo is IT. ⭐️💂🏻♀️
*Actually only half because for some reason, I didn’t order enough? Our list must have grown over the past year or I just underestimated how many people were on it! I had to order more so the second half will be going out later whoops!!
Traded in my mom jeans for a @jcrew tuxedo this holiday season! Whether you’re dressing up, getting cozy, or picking out a gift for someone special, J. Crew has you covered! #injcrew #sponsored

Love it Carly. It's not quite chilly enough for fall weather down in Charlotte yet. But I have kind of fabled in it.
