As I mentioned on Thursday, Mitch and I have started carving out some time for activities in bright, indoor locations to get the family out of the house and lift everyone’s spirits. (Read the post here!) We’re doing a couple of brunches every week, but we also don’t want to go broke. ;) So we’re hitting up whatever “cheery coffee shops” we can find, too. Which is awesome for work and Emma’s nap because we can usually get there and back in about an hour.

This morning, we visited Heritage Bicycles on Lincoln, which I think most would pass on the street and assume is just a bicycle shop. ;) And understandable, considering the name! But it’s actually a bicycle store, a coffee shop and a restaurant. And it’s incredibly well-lit and stunningly beautiful and artsy. (Bingo!) We got Emma a cookie–are we sensing a pattern?!–and a couple of coffees for ourselves; we walked the shop and tried out some bikes; we sat in the outside area and soaked up the sun. (Low 50s today. Such an improvement.) All in all, such a nice morning, and I adore the photos that Mitch and I snapped while we were there. Seriously, though. How cute is Emma on that bike? Definitely getting her one this summer.

Anyway, the real point of this post is to officially talk about the magic of Mark & Graham, and just how many wonderfully preppy Mother’s Day gifts the company is currently carrying. (Note the bag and the stamped necklace in these photos!) I’m obsessed with the brand right now. And by “obsessed,” I mean that I’ve been caught leafing through catalogues and browsing the online store multiple times per day. Everything is SO CUTE and classy and timeless… and it’s reasonably priced for the outstanding quality. Prepare yourself for tons of Mark & Graham stuff to appear on this site this year. This girl is SOLD! (Did you catch this recent outfit post? Adore that tote, too!)

Obviously, my #1 and #2 picks for Mother’s Day are the bamboo handbag I’m carrying as well as the stamped charm necklace I’m wearing in these photos. The bag is gorgeous. The leather is beyond soft, I adore the gold monogram, and the bamboo handles?! Stop, haha. It comes in so many colors and designs, too.

You can shop the blush, white, orange, red and black bags here, the navy and brown bags here, the dark brown bag here, and the striped bag here. As for the stamped initial necklace, I love the sentimentality of it, and the price point. I got the “E,” “M,” and “K” initials to represent my little family. Wouldn’t it be so cute to get your mom the necklace with the initials of her children?! Boom. You win Mother’s Day. I won’t spoil the surprise for my own mom and mother-in-law, but they’re definitely getting M & G gifts this year!

Mitch, if you’re reading this, here’s some other Mark & Graham stuff that’s on my wish list. 😂 And for the rest of you, my apologies for the 50 some odd photos below. What can I say? The light was perfect, I was happy, and I couldn’t stop snapping. ;)

My wish list:

“Terminal 1” Luggage Set

Bedford Laptop Bag

Passport and Luggage Tag Set
