Apricot Lane
~ Erin
I was so excited to see Apricot Lane’s recent opening in Stonecrest at Piper Glen. As a South-Charlotte Mommy, I don’t always have the time to run up to SouthPark to find a cute dress or top for an event. Now I don’t have to! This boutique has got some serious cute cute cute clothes in it and the prices are so affordable too. Just today I purchased an amazing maxi-dress for a party for $68 and I’m in love with it. Every time I go there, the store is full of new arrivals, which makes each shopping experience new and exciting. The staff is so helpful and they have everything you need to complete the look. Apricot Lane is a must do for all Charlotte Mommy’s!
Apricot Lane is a popular national boutique featuring celebrity-inspired affordable fashions for the everyday woman and her daughter. They offer styles from the L.A. Fashion District and a personalized shopping experience where stylists will help you put together a wardrobe.

Bourbon & Boweties
I’m obsessed with stacking bracelets. And lots of them. My big sis introduced me to my latest faves, Bourbon & Boweties bracelets. They were hands down my favorite Christmas gift under the tree this year. I fell hard in love and started my collection. And it’s no wonder. Our other pink & green besties at Lilly Pulitzer stores all across Florida cannot keep these fab bracelets in stock. I can promise you this, Smarties. This trend hasn’t even skimmed the surface here in the QC. Once you see them in person, you’ll be forever hooked.
Bourbon & Boweties bracelets are meant to be worn up your arm and stacked with many different colors and stones. I can’t decide which design is my favorite: is it my custom coin bracelet from Chile or is it the dainty pearl or the chunky navy stone? I guess it depends on my mood. Here’s how it all started.
Straight from the South, designer and owner Carley Ochs started making bangles for friends and family after she discovered a market of fabulous gems and stones while she was abroad in Shanghai. Her design was to hand make souvenirs for her friends from the jade she stumbled upon while in China. From which, the first Bourbon and Boweties bangle was born. Unbeknown to Carley, that minute gesture of friendship bowed into a whirlwind of success and humility. Praised for her craftsmanship, Carley took her first batch of freshly made bangles to the heart of the South in a high end South Carolina boutique. That day in Charleston Bourbon and Boweties made its mark and continued to grow as a jewelry line that will forever be “Made by Proud Southern Hands.”
Here’s our newest stash:
One lucky Smarty will win a special set of 3 Bourbon & Boweties bangles (value $88), hand-picked by designer, Carley Ochs herself. Love?

Elizabeth McKay
~Jen P
I first discovered Elizabeth McKay two years ago and absolutely fell head over heels in love with the simple feminine detail on every piece. Whether it’s the perfectly ruffled Elizabeth blouse, or the patterned Hayden shorts that are nice enough to wear out to dinner, Elizabeth’s designs make you feel special. I have a few pieces from the summer/fall collection and I kid you not, every single time I wear one, I get stopped and have to give the names of all of the Charlotte boutiques who carry her (and you can bet I rattle off those boutiques without skipping a beat after featuring on CSP:-)! The lines in every Elizabeth McKay piece fit as if I had them custom tailored for me – absolutely stunning! Her fabrics are luxurious and her pieces are timeless. You will want to build this collection for years to come.
As I’ve gotten to know Elizabeth’s style and story, I learned that she originally hails from NC, which is why we love her even more! Her designs are full of color, bold prints and sophistication. We {heart} Elizabeth McKay!
Our lucky Smarty will win either a pair of Hayden shorts or the Elizabeth Ruffle Blouse, both featured here (a $195 value):
I paired both pieces together, LOVE this outfit – you can wear it anywhere!

Gretchen Scott is one of my all-time favorite summer designers. She continues to outdo herself with the most colorful and fun patterns! Every time I wear a Gretchen Scott piece, I smile. And that is absolutely part of her mantra:
LAUGH MORE.. GRIPE LESS.. IGNORE CRITICS.. SAY YES.. ORDER DESSERT.. LOVE LIFE..
Finding inspiration from her travels across the world, Gretchen’s’ designs reflect a global perspective:
“India is a big part of what I design. The Indian sense of color, proportion and incredible embroidery is amazing. Gretchen travels there often. Indian simplicity informs even the most complicated design elements. Hand printed, festive fabrics and vibrant inks define Gretchen Scott Designs’ look. Our colors are true and often times intense.”
Gretchen has three flagship stores: Jupiter, Southampton & Nantucket. I’m lucky enough to say that I get to visit these incredible destinations every year. You could say that’s serendipity:-)
Gretchen is graciously giving away one piece per boutique listed below ~ that’s SIX Smarty winners! Total value over $500!

Palm Beach Sandals
~Jen P
I am super excited to bring you Palm Beach Sandals. Think iconic Jackie-O sandals that will NEVER go out of style. They may look like Jack Rogers, but I promise you, there is no comparison. Palm Beach Sandals are WAY more comfortable than Jack Rogers (there is something about that Jack Rogers plastic heel that just isn’t quite right), they are made with love in my Palm Beach, Florida stomping grounds, and the shape of the sole is much more of a natural fit.
See demonstration here:
About Palm Beach Sandals:
Palm Beach Sandals are meticulously hand-crafted gorgeous sandals in Palm Beach, FL. They are genuinely like no other. 100% supple, beautifully tanned leathers and kidskins. A perfection of proportion and scale that makes even less-than-pampered feet look flawlessly chic. Thick, expertly fashioned soles that mold to your feet, cradling them in comfort. If you seek iconic elegance and quality that is superb – astonishing, really – Palm Beach Sandals are just for you.
Our lucky Smarty will get a pair of Platinum/Gold Leather Sandals, valued at $110!

Poppy Whitaker (2 winners!)
~ Cheryl
Poppy Whitaker is an ADORABLE line of hand-crafted clothes for girls, tweens, and women. It’s vintage-y and preppy, feminine and fun, comfortable and unique. AND, it’s all handmade by a mom-of-three right here in Charlotte, Jamie Barker. She has quite a gift for finding just the right fabrics – mostly cottons – and creating one-of-a-kind pieces.
Each piece is custom made to order. You can pick the fabrics from her vast selection, the style, and the details. We recently met with Poppy Whitaker to discuss options for tweens (since my daughter is on the cusp of tween-dom and has definite opinions for what she will and won’t wear). Jamie created the cutest shorts and blouse set for her with a coordinating headband. She loves the criss-cross tie in the back of the shirt. My dress is SO comfortable. I can see myself wearing this around town every day this summer! And, it has POCKETS!! Really deep pockets! Love that.
Karly and her adorable daughter, Annie, are wearing Poppy Whitaker dresses as well. Love the bright patterns and the way Jamie can mix ’em all up and they come out looking fantastic. Her entire girl’s line is awesome – rompers, skirts, shorts, dresses – you can’t go wrong with any.
We’re giving away one girl or tween outfit or dress (value up to $42) and one women’s dress (value up to $52). I PROMISE you are going to fall love with this line!!
Find Poppy Whitaker online or through trunk shows around town. For more on attending a trunk show or hosting a trunk show, contact Shayle McIntosh at shayle@poppywhitaker.com.

Roberta Roller Rabbit by Roberta Freymann
I discovered Roberta Roller Rabbit line last year and immediately fell in LOVE. To me, it defines Bohemian chic. I absolutely love the bright colors, bold prints, and soft fabrics that she’s known for. Roberta Roller Rabbit is an offshoot of Roberta Freymann’s namesake label and is a relaxed, resort-inspired line that includes clothing for women, men, and children, as well as home furnishings and accessories. I dream of having curtains made out of her fabric, and an item from her children’s line would be the PERFECT gift for a new baby or the favorite child in your life.
One of my fave things in her line for women is the kurta (a tunic-like top with beautiful prints and colors). Jen and I sporting kurtas in the picture below, and I am holding one of the Roberta Roller Rabbit beach totes. This would be the perfect beach/pool bag – I could jam enough stuff in it for four kids no problem (I might even be able to fit my youngest in it!. :-))
The kurta is so amazingly comfortable but will absolutely make your outfit – plus it hides ALL flaws! 🙂 And guess what? One lucky Smarty will be winning a kurta of her choice (depending on Roberta’s stock, of course). I promise you will feel totally glam every time you wear it – whether it’s at the pool, a night out with friends, or just for carpool. Valued at $85.
Roberta Freymann and Roberta Roller Rabbit are only available through trunk shows in Charlotte. Here are the deets for the next Charlotte trunk show:

TKEES – 11 Winners, in honor of Mother’s Day on May 11th!
~Jen P
TKEES, oh how I love thee! This FLA girl is all about flip-flops. I wear them 365 days a year. And I get REALLY excited when I find a new fave! Smarties, meet TKEES, quite possibly the most fashionable, comfortable and sleek flip-flop ever designed.
On TKEES:
For Jesse and Carly Burnett, the husband and wife duo behind TKEES (t-keys), it was a no-brainer. Carly yearned for a sandal that would “disappear” on your foot. “We’d walk out the door barefoot if we could, but it’s not appropriate for every occasion,” so TKEES was born. Carly, the ultimate flip-flop girl, was never big on makeup, but loved its myriad color collections. She sifted through her mom’s cosmetic case and traveled the world with Jesse to build their business, finding continued inspiration in makeup stores and cosmetic counters. “The categories we created are natural and organic,” she says, “everything fits together.” The couple has stayed true to their mission, with customers applauding the sandals for their casual elegance and ease of wear—a no-brainer indeed.
I love how clever the collections of the sandals are: Lipliners, Glitters, Highlighters, Shadows. They scream all things girly! Not to mention celebs are loving TKEES – the Kardashians, Halle Barry and Jennifer Garner to name a few!
Our Smarty friends at TKEES outfitted our blog team and we had a ball:
Our Smarty friends at TKEES are giving ELEVEN lucky Smarties a pair of TKEES, in honor of Mother’s Day on May 11th! How fun is that?!

Cork Dork
~ Erin
I’m so excited to introduce you all to “Cork Dork”. You all know the lovable Molly Grantham from WBTV, right? Well, I am a super fan of hers not only for what she provides our community but also because she has turned her a little hobby of hers into something I have become obsessed with.
Think vintage frames. Think stylish and useful gifts. Think chalk-and-cork-combos, hot plates, ornaments, picture frames and mini-bulletin boards for desktops. Think in kitchens, playrooms, basements, offices or dorms. Think unique gifts for Mother’s Day, Christmas, a house-warming or graduation. Anything you think of, she can do.
Each of the Cork Dork boards are unique, made from vintage frames found in treasure-hunt outings. Prices range from $19-99, depending on size. Right now, you can purchase her boards at the Boulevard at South End as well as Southern Style in Waxhaw.
Molly is graciously giving away one of her best sellers, a medium chalk/cork board to one of our lucky winners. I’m telling you that you will get hooked on these boards when friends see them hanging in your house. Everyone wants to know where I got mine, that for sure!

LAFCO
~Jen
At CSP, we love everything by LAFCO. LAFCO New York – Luxury Articles & Fragrance Co. is the brainchild of former lawyer and self confessed body care junkie Jon Bresler who started the company over 20 years ago. Beginning with the most basic element of body care: soap, Jon found the incredible Ach Brito factory in Portugal and partnered with them to create a new line called Claus Porto. Consisting at the time of five classic fragrances (most of which are still best sellers today), the old-fashioned bars with their brightly colored packaging caused a sensation by selling in the retail worlds of fashion, lifestyle, apothecary and tabletop all at the same time. The trend of the oversized soap bar was born!

All I want for Mothers Day is a few hours of Quality Alone Time (QAT)…relax – meaning I can sit on sofa with feet up and watch tv for 30 minutes without having to get drinks, food, toys etc. Go to bathroom by myself, not have to supervise my kids bathroom trips, a night off from bath time routine, sleep in for maybe an extra 30 minutes, etc. The list could go on and on and on…….And, of course, anything on the super cool above list!
All I want for Mother’s Day is a nice, quiet day spent with my family doing all of the things we love to do as a family. We will go to church, family lunch and then visit the grandmothers.
All I want for mother’s day is a full day to relax with my family and maybe a full night of uninterrupted sleep!
A stress free day… Cherishing the littlest ones we have in our lives.
Is to enjoy time with my kids without any Cinderella chores (you know, sweeping, dishes, laundry, etc… leave it all for Monday).
All I want for Mother’s Day is to sleep in and then spend the day with the fam!
All I want for Mother’s Day is to not have all the hustle and bustle and enjoy time with family. I love all the swag items especially Bourbon & Boweties, Elizabeth McKay, Cottage Chic, Erin McDermott, Palm Beach sandals, and Tkees.
All I want for Mother’s Day is lots of family time and no cooking!
