Clear the Rack Sale

March 25, 2016

Hello, loves!
Just a quick post to share with you some of the awesome finds currently being offered up at for Nordstrom Rack’s Clear the Rack sale! I didn’t find many clothing items (perhaps they were already picked over), but lots of cute things for summer in the shoe & bag departments. I’m a size 7, so if you’re a less popular size, you’ll probably have even more luck. If you’re a Nordstrom cardholder, you also get triple points during the sale, and don’t forget to use eBates for an extra 1.5% cash back! What did you think of the sale?

Rebecca Minkoff Sale

February 6, 2016

I was thrilled to see that so many of the bags being offered up currently at the  Rebecca Minkoff sale are in one of Pantone’s color of the year for 2016, Rose Quartz! I’ve always loved the softness of this shade and it’s inherent femininity. I’ve chosen my favorite bags (in this shade & others), jewelry and clothing from the sale to share..

 Also, be sure to sign up for their email list for a extra 15% off, and eBates for an extra 4% off your order. If you haven’t signed up for eBates yet, you absolutely should! I’ve gotten $497.33 cash back thus far, and check it for codes and cash back every time I make an online purchase. Feel free to use my code here when signing up.

Valentine’s Day Gift Guide

February 5, 2016

As much as I’d love to be one of those people who thinks Valentine’s Day is overrated, a commercialized non-holiday for corporations to make money, etc., I’ll admit I’m a total sucker for it. Everything heart-covered, pink & red decor, and the romantic fuzzy feelings I get from seeing flowers, candles, and a gorgeous dinner with the one I love.. Count me so in.
I wanted this Valentine’s Day gift guide to be full of things that I would absolutely love to receive. I also didn’t want to add anything in that would require your Valentine to guess sizes. These gift ideas work for your any of your “Gal-entines;” your best friend, your sister, your girlfriend, or anyone you want to share some love with this February 14th.

Obsessed with this amethyst-hued fringe suede bag. I seriously would buy this for myself this Valentine’s Day! I paired it with a gorgeous howlite purse charm, which I love because it’s like purse jewelry and looks so luxe added to any bag.

Birchbox Finds

January 21, 2016

Hello loves!
I’ve been going a little nuts over all of the gorgeous little sets that Birchbox has been putting out recently… Not only are they cute, fantastically curated collections of items, but I’m finding most of them to be very useful in my house and they’re at crazy good prices! I’ve previously posted the Lovely Day Set (where I fell in love with Greenleaf candles), and the Gym Bag Heroes set, which I adore (especially the socks and water bottle), and have since purchased the Entertaining Essentials Set and the Charmed Life Set.
First up, Entertaining Essentials!

Birch1Pretty much everything is something I would purchase outside of a set. Love the little silicone pinch bowls, bamboo salad servers, and the unbreakable wine decanter. I will definitely make good use of the syrups in cocktails when we have guests over, and the place cards if we have a more formal gathering at the house. The only thing I’m a touch iffy on is the coasters, as the cheapie cardboard isn’t really appealing, but at least I won’t be sad to throw them away at the end of the night if they get messed up! This set is $42, but I took another $10 off using some Birchbox points I had saved up.

DFT- Product Picks - 7The most recent set I’ve been going gaga over is the Charmed Life Set. Sadly, this one isn’t available anymore, but I still wanted to share all of the goodies that were included. I truly can’t believe this set was only $40 as an add on to my regular sample box, as I would have paid $40 for just two of these items! The Illume candle smells amazing, and I’ve been wanting to try this multi-purpose oil from Nuxe for a while. Anyone who knows me knows that I am obsessed with all things gold, so the fact that the picture frame, bud vase and ring holder are all covered in gold makes my heart happy.

There are a couple of sets right now that I’ve got my eye on, the Strong Start, and the Everyday Glamour. Strong Start is similar to the Gym Heroes, but it has a bkr bottle (LOVE!) and some different beauty products. Everyday Glamour features some great luxury makeup and skincare items, along with a gorgeous metallic pouch. These Birchbox finds would also make for lovely Valentine’s Day gifts, for a friend getting back on the fitness-minded track, or for anyone who loves to feel all girly and pretty.
