it’s the last friday in march, gang! which means three whole months have zipped by in a nano-second. at least it seems that way to me. next week we’ll grab our umbrellas. those april showers will soon be upon us. so let’s bid adieu to march with a refreshing cocktail and an easy sheet pan dinner. don’t worry oscar is here for his weekly gig just like always. although he sure wanted to stay outside a bit longer. it doesn’t get dark until 7:30ish these days. hooray!
today’s post is short and sweet as mr. style and i are headed to panama city beach for the weekend. this is my first travel campaign. i’m delighted to tour the beaches of the panhandle of florida. it’s the perfect time of year for a beach vacay as the temps will be a balmy seventy-five. they don’t call florida the sunshine state for anything. blues skies will greet us.
today’s ootd is simple and chic. and i’m taking a cue from my style uniform (blazer, button-down, blue jeans, and ballet flats). but i’m certain you noticed i exchanged the button-down for a graphic tee (old similar here and here) and the ballet flats for pink suede kitten heels. i’m sporting a new pair of boyfriend blue jeans from Banana Republic Factory. boyfriend jeans have a relaxed fit. i’m wearing a size eight but i wish i sized down to a six. a pair of heels glam up blue jeans in no time flat. but the star of the show is a simple tweed blazer (old, similar here and here). and we all know how much i love blazers.

I love your blog! You do a fabulous job!! Not going to lie…Friday is my favorite..love Oscar!!!
The ootd, minus the heels, really grabs me! I have a new navy “Chanel” jacket with fringe that I am dying to wear in a week or two when spring decides to stay in NW PA.
The dinner looks scrumptious, and is something I am going to make for myself on Sunday!! Thanks for the idea.
Hve a safe & fun trip!
Hi Beth – I love your blog and have purchased a lot of what you have worn. I look forward to it. Where are the most current ones? I somehow end up looking at outfits that are from a few years ago.
That sheet pan dinner sounds wonderful. Can’t wait to try it. Thanks for sharing.
Confused by the recipe. We’re there steps left out??? Where does the hosin sauce go and are the instructions for the beans, potatoes, or both??? Clarification, please!!!
Happy weekend.
The hoisin sauce is brushed over the tenderloins before cooking. I think there was just a major typo in the recipe and potatoes are mixed in the large bowl, not the green beans. I’m going to try this soon. It looks great, and so easy!
this might help clear things up:
Arrange green beans in center of baking sheet.
In the same bowl, toss the potatoes with 2 tablespoons of olive oil 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper.
these two sentences were inadvertently left out of the recipe today. and the hoisin sauce is brushed over the top of the tenderloins as a glaze – the recipe included this step.
hope this helps!
Hi Beth, both yourself and Oscar look very smart, also relaxed and chilled. I will have to try the cocktail and the Pork looks delicious. Enjoy your weekend x
Hey Beth, if you make it over to Rosemary Beach we have a place there. Cute boutiques. One of my favorites is in Alys beach called Ann Hartleys. Have fun!!
thanks peggy! we loved our weekend in panama city beach. absolutely gorgeous beaches. xo
Recipe directions don’t make sense ??
The recipe is somewhat confusing. I make something similar and the potatoes go in first, then put in meat with green beans going on sheet pan last, otherwise the beans are way too done and potatoes not enough. Just checking as I love sheet pan recipes, clean up a breeze!
Love the outfit and jackets always look so stylish.
the great thing about recipes is that they can be tweaked to suit your taste. but this recipe called for the green beans to be placed in the middle, potatoes on the side, and tenderloins on top. that’s the way i assembled the sheet pan then popped it in the oven. the green beans came out yummy. i think the tenderloins protect them from becoming too crisp.

Loving your recipes!! Are they on pinterest?
You look adorable, think I need a new tweed jacket. As always, I just love your boy, Oscar!
The recipe looks delicious! I think step 2 is confusing. Perhaps it refers to potatoes rather than green beans, as stated? If so, are green beans seasoned before adding to the sheet pan?
these two sentences were inadvertently omitted:
Arrange green beans in center of baking sheet.
In the same bowl, toss the potatoes with 2 tablespoons of olive oil 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper.
hope this clears things up!

Love those one sheet pan dinners and yours looks delish! Oscar certainly is handsome in his spring green! I envy your trip to the beach. We are headed to San Diego for Easter week and I am hoping to get some beach time there! Love your style, Beth! 💕
san diego is a wonderful city! enjoy your Easter week there. xo
I love my tweed jackets but had not thought of a graphic tee with them. Need to reevaluate my closet to find one to try out. Thanks for the wonderful ideas! Have fun in Florida!
you’re very welcome! it’s nice to mix things up a bit. graphic tees always add a little fun. xo
Very cute! I love the jackets with fringe trim. Need to find one for myself. And the sheet pan recipe sounds great too. Have fun!
love a chanel inspired jacket! i will always have one hanging in my closet. xo
Wow, I am definitely trying this recipe! My husband and I love pork roast, looks very easy to do. Also, such a good outfit, beautiful jacket.
i hope you enjoy this recipe, kim! it’s easy and delicious. what’s better than that? xo
Looks yummy. I haven’t made a pork tenderloin in a while. Will have to try this. I love potatoes roasted this way. Have a great weekend!
tell me what you think, sue! i love an easy recipe and this one fits the bill. xo
I see you already got the changes to the recipe. I tried it today and it is really amazing! I halved it, but I have leftovers as well. I look forward to Oscar and Ollie and love you in my daily inbox.
yes! the recipe was updated. so glad you enjoyed it as much as we did. xo
Hi Beth. Made the recipe for dinner last night. Always looking for something new to try. My husband (who can be a picky eater) LOVED it! It was delicious! And very simple to make. Thanks much and look forward to another tasty and simple dish. And as always, I LOVE your outfit ideas.
mr. style and i always love a good tenderloin. this was is easy to make and delicious. xo
