Kate Spade Sale, Hair Cut and Computer Issues

I'm so excited for the weekend! Time to relax and enjoy time with family.

And guess what happened today?

My computer stopped working. Well it powers up, but the screen is white. This is the second time my Sony Vaio has been giving me issues. In June the motherboard was replaced, and now this. My hubs is telling me to buy a Mac desk top, I just don't know at this point. I'm pretty discouraged. It should be fixed in a few days :)

On the brighter side! Kate Spade is have 30% off your purchase! Use coupon code: F12FFUS

There are a few things I have been eyeing! Some of their bangles are charming.

Don't forget to go through Ebates before purchasing anywhere on the web. It really needs to become a habit. And right when you make your first purchase of $25 bucks, they will send you a $10 gift card. I actually used mine a couple days ago at Target. Pretty sweet :)

Till Next Time.


Always Lovely,

P.S.

I got my hair cut/trimmed yesterday. Here is a pic right after. Btw workout outfit is from Target. Love their champion brand.

And last pic is what I want to do to my hair as soon as I reach the length.

J Brand Denim Jacket and Faux Leather

I love the look of a denim jacket and faux leather (it is still too hot to wear the "real" kind).  Yesterday was a gloomy, rainy day, so I decided to add a pop of color and accessorize with black sunnies, my fav purse, and flats.  Do you own a denim jacket?  How do you style it?

Outfits Galore and Pretty Things

Here are a few shots from outfits I have worn over past couple weeks. And just pretty things I have been loving lately.

I have a love for styling clothing. I enjoy putting things together. From start to finish, I love seeing it all come together. It probably takes me about 5-10 minutes to pick out what to wear based on my mood and what I'm doing that day.

P.S. Don't forget to sign up for Ebates to earn cash back on all your online purchases plus get $10 gift card to Target when you spend only $25 at your favorite online retailer! I have been doing some online shopping for Fall (J Crew has some great sales going on, 25% off plus free shipping with purchase over $150.00, use coupon code STYLE25)

One of my favorite Sam Edelman Leopard Heels.  And look, Masha has her own pair too.

 

 

 

J Brand Coated Jeans in Shocking Pink (Its like a red/pink color)

J Crew Mint Sweater

Sam Edelman Nude Pumps

 

I love J Brand Jeans, they hug all the right curves.  I normally wear a size 25 in their jeans.  It's a tight fit but jeans tend to stretch out so it's better to go down a size.  I always suggest trying jeans on :)

 

 

Trouve Pink Top via Nordstom

High Waisted Black Shorts (older)

Halogen Black Patent Wedges

House of Harlow Sunnies

 

I adore high waisted shorts.  I paired it with a cute blue belt at the waist and you can't go wrong with black patent wedges.  They are comfortable yet you still get that height.

 

 

One of my favorite Home Decor books: Domino

Kate Spade Earrings

Red Shorts viaTarget

Sam Edelman Leopard Stacked Heels

 

I love finding deals at stores like Ross.  It's really luck and time on what you will find there but I have seen brands like Lucky, Guess, Free People, Calvin Klein, etc. 

Target makes great affordable shorts.  Definitely worth taking a look.

 

 

Gemma Pastel Plaid Silk Top via Ebay

Joes Lilac Jeans

Tory Burch Revas in Pink

Kate Spade Hot Pink Purse

 

Who doesn't love a flowy silk top especially in soft pastel colors.  I love the plaid print, very unexpected.  I bought this top new off Ebay for $14. 

And of course Joe's Jeans makes the best legging denim.  These are super soft!

I adore Tory Burch Revas.  I love these in Pink.  (One of my favorite colors, can't go wrong)

 

 

La Blanca Swim Suit

 

Recently bought this one piece red number at TJ Maxx.  Love the retro vibe.

 

 

J Crew Tippi Heart Sweater

J Crew Gingham Shirt in Pink

Mother Denim Curfew Jeans

Kate Spade Hot Pink Bag

 

I love the 70's look.  And flares always seem to elongate the legs. 

 

 

 

Had to post this! One of my fav sayings by Walt Whitman :)

 

 

 

I have been loving Organic Chocolate Milk and Mustard (not together of course, lol)

 

 

Black Top via Saks

Nordstrom Buys and Recent Outfits: Truth and Pride Blazer and Paige Paloma Leather Pants, etc.

I have been busy lately with play dates and enjoying as much as I can of the last months of summer heat. I practically live at the pool. Since it has been so hot here, instead of getting my cardio through speed walking (with the stroller and baby in tow), I have been swimming. Thankfully I have the gym right next to me too with free day care.

I can't wait till it cools down! I have been doing some fall shopping to prepare myself for the cooler days ahead. I'm already pulling out my boots (I am a bootaholic!).

Here are a few outfits and snap shots from dressing room fittings.

 

Guess Dark Denim Jacket

Mauve Top via TJ Maxx Sold Out (Similar here)

J Brand Cargo Pants

Black Booties (older)

Kate Spade Hot Pink Purse

 

Love this outfit I wore earlier last week on a rainy day! Notice the pony tail, yep, I have been styling this lately.  My hair is getting so long, I'm trying to find new ways to style :)

 

 

 

Truth and Pride Hot Pink Blazer (Similar less expensive version)

Paige Paloma Leather Pants

Sequin Top via TJ Maxx Sold Out (Similar)

Boutique 9 Black Patent Pumps

 

This outfit rocks! It would be an AWESOME date night or "girls night out" Outfit.  Not showing too much, yet still flirty and young!

 

 

 

J Brand Atomic Denim Jacket

Trouve Snake Print Top

Paige Kelly Green Jeans

Kate Spade Hot Pink Purse

Sam Edelman Nude Pumps Sold Out (Similar ones by Sam Edelman)

 

I wore this outfit last week on a cooler day, and I love how the jacket tones down the brighter colors.  The Kelly Green Jeans are amazing.  Paige Denim really know what is going on when it comes to fit and style.

 

 

 

 

Had to include this photo.  I am trying on a DVF blazer, love the color.  It comes with a belt so it would be more fitted around the waist.  

 

Look at my child, lol.  Love her!  She is trying on a DVF red number, and totally rocking it!

 

 

 

Vince Silk Oversized Blouse

J Brand Coated Jeans in Fog

Tory Burch Reva Flats

 

I am loving this blouse.  Feels like heaven against the skin.  And the jeans are just perfect.  Fit like a glove!

 

 

 

Saw this beautiful DVF blouse.  Love the pink, of course :)

 

 

Close up on Nordstom Purchases...these leather pants are so HOT! I ordered the xs because I feel like pants/jeans seem to stretch out over the course of a day.  They fit snug and comfortable.  I might also order a Small just in case I get pregnant  (they are that gorgeous!)

 

 

 

Thrifted Blumarine Wool Camel Dress.  How timeless is this dress?!  I got a steal at $28 and my MIL tailored it for me. 

  

 

 

French Connection Striped Sweater via Saks

 

I love French Connection for their modern take on clothing.  This sweater is super fitted (I got the xs) and it is simply amazing! It hugs all the right curves.

 

 

 

Another shot of denim jacket/green jeans

 

 

 

Saw this DVF Faux fur coat.  Reminded me of a black sheep.  Maybe if I still lived in Seattle ;)

 

 

 

Some Beauty purchases from Ulta.  I had a coupon and decided to hit them up since I needed mascara.  I normally order the Bad Gal, but the girls convinced me to try the "They're Real" and i'm loving it.  It curls and lengths and no flaking.  I also love the Yes to Blueberries wipes.  My fav from all their line of wipes.  The sale girl even included a cute makeup bag with some free samples even though I didn't make the $25 Benefit total.  What can I say, awesome customer service :)

 

 

 

How GORGEOUS are these scarfs?! (Via Saks)

 

 

Oh lookie here, my princess at the pool.  Always on her tippy toes :)

 

 

 

 

Brian Atwood Pumps.  I love the color and look at that heel.  Very unique.

 

 

 

Dresses at Saks.  Oh, how I love color!

 

 

 

Rock and Republic Blouse via Kohls.  Very well made and I am loving the color.  Definitely will be eyeing more items in this color.

 

 

 

I asked her to smile, and she gives me this, lol.  Love this child. 

 

 

 

Ok, last shot of my fav purchases from Nordstrom.  I love pink and this blazer really did it for me.  I was wanting a Naven blazer but this one is even better!

 

 

Till Next Time.

 

 

Always Lovely,

Online Shopping Musts - Ebates & Gilt

Finally back to the rhythm of things after returning from our vacation to Seattle.  The three hour difference is quite an adjustment for our little one, however it was so worth it.  It was amazing seeing family and friends.  My hubs and I both got to do things we wanted: He went sky diving and I got to experience an Asian Spa (Body Scrubbing, massage, and eveything in between ;)

Ok, so I wanted to share a few recent online purchases (last few months, sorry I am a little behind, please forgive me :)

I picked up these gorgeous blush pumps by Sam Edelman on Gilt.com.  I have been eyeing these for quite sometime but they are sold out in most places, and when I received an email that they were hosting Sam Edelman shoes, I was all over it.  Plus they are having a sale for 20% off your purchase using coupon code MY20.

If you are not part of Gilt.com, use this link to sign up:

http://www.gilt.com/invite/151006515ap377yyzarx

They are selling a bunch of other Sam Edelman shoes.  I am a HUGE fan.  Check them out and if you do end up purchasing, let me know which ones! I have a few of the ones listed on the site.

AND HERE IS MY NUMBER ONE PLACE TO GO TO BEFORE SHOPPING ONLINE:

 

Yep they pay you to shop online.  When I purchased these shoes, I received an additional 4% back.  And I realize thats not all that much, but over time you would be surpised how much you can build up.

 

Before shopping anywhere, go to Ebates and search for the online store.  You have to go to Ebates before you start shopping because they provide a tracking ticket that ensures you will be paid for the money you spent at the store.

 

If you are interested in signing up use the link below:

 

http://www.ebates.com/rf.do?referrerid=%2FQXL2BzISkcPnZjOMTVcDw%3D%3D

 

When you sign up, and make your first purchase of $25 bucks, you will get a choice of a $10 gift

card.  There are a couple options, but I love the Target one. 

 

 

 

 

 And I can verify that a couple weeks after making my first purchase of $25, I received my $10 gift card!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And I bought a new Kate Spade purse.  Its called the Gold Coast Ginnie in Hot Fuschia.  I love all things Pink, and when I saw this bag in person in Seattle I had to have it, but I decided to buy online at Katespade.com and use Ebates to receive a percentage back. Plus I received an additional 15% off and they ship for free! I needed a small bag because sometimes I don't want to tug around my huge bags.  I might be heading to the mall with friends and just want to have a few essentials.  This is the PERFECT purse for that and the color is simply divine, looks even better in person!

 

Till Next Time.

 

 

Always Lovely,
