i have to say, i love these ‘friday finds’ posts…they really do turn out as random as my week typically seems.
these beautiful new chocolate bars from vosges chocolate showed up on my doorstep this week (i love my job!), and wow. a belt notch later, i can tell you they’re positively amazing. vosges makes some of my favorite chocolates – they do an amazing job of creating seriously unique, unbelievably delicious flavors. the pink peppercorns in the white chocolate/lemon zest bar might have been a tad strong, but utterly unlike anything i’ve tried. and there’s nothing at all wrong with blood orange caramel! count me in. next on my list to try is their new bacon chocolate chip pancake mix…yum!
i ran into this skirt from the tucker for target collection during a target outing this week, and dear readers, it is utterly fantastic in person! i am now scouring my local targets to find my size, as it’s totally sold out online (reviewers have said it runs small, so beware). this gold and navy brocade looks so, so much more luxe in person than it gets credit for being online. it reminds me of something j.crew or kate spade would have produced, but the $39 pricetag is no lie. wear it now with a drapey silk top and navy belted blazer, or a sleek cream cardi…and just try to imagine the holiday potential here!
speaking of j.crew, i was actively coveting one of the chunky bracelets from their fenton/fallon collaboration, but it sold out before i could justify the expense. lucky for me their sister brand, madewell, has come up with a style i might even love more…and at half the price! at $58, i’m having a very hard time finding the willpower to stop myself.

and last but not least, couldn’t resist sharing the friends & family action going on at hayden+harnett. now through october 15, take 20% off any online order (including sale items, and pieces from other designers!) with code FALL10FRIENDS. i checked with their designer, toni hacker, before i shared, and she assured me that she thinks of all you shoppingsmycardio readers as dear friends of hayden+harnett, so spend away! i’d splurge on these tomtom pyramid stud earrings ($80) and the mystery scarf ($160), but i haven’t even gotten to the bags yet…
have a great weekend, everyone!
