These bow earrings I’m wearing are from J.Crew last year;  here’s a pair that are nearly identical. This B necklace is a staple accessory and makes a great gift! Pic from this post.

Happy Cyber Monday! There are a lot of great deals online right now and I’m sure you’ve seen many of them.  A few of my faves include:

Clothing: J.Crew, H&M, Ann Taylor, Loft, Nordstrom, Madewell, Target, Anthro, Gap and Banana Republic

Home:  Pottery Barn, World Market, Serena and Lily, McGee and Co., Caitlin Wilson, Circa Lighting, William Sonoma, Frontgate, Wisteria and Brooke and Lou

I wanted to share a few gift guides this year that are categorized a little differently. I’m sure I’ll have some for the toddler boy or baby girl later on since my littles pretty much consume my life and my shopping budget, but I also wanted to tee up my gift guides in a way that are helpful to you. I’ll be sharing a couple over the next few weeks until Christmas. First off, I’ve included gift picks for those who love bows! I’ve always been drawn to things with bows. Bows give a nice feminine and sophisticated touch to an outfit. I have several accessories with bows on them like these ribbon wrapped hoop earrings, mules, and several tops I’ve collected over the years. I’ve noticed bows popping up even more lately, so I’m sure the gals in your life might like at least one of these items on the list!  This lamp is a splurge and totally on my wish list. I’d love a pair! Do you hear that Santa? 😉

Happy shopping!

Holiday Pajamas for the Kids and Family

November 5, 2018

It seems like when November hits, a light switch goes off and there’s a mad rush to get decked out in holiday gear. Unless you’re Hobby Lobby — they start around October 1 or late Sept. which is basically crazy town! I am one who feels like Thanksgiving deserves a little love, so I don’t think I can get the Christmas tree and other holiday decor out quite yet. But, I can appreciate seasonal pajamas, especially for kids. Here’s a post of Braden and his cousin from last year to help remind you of my love for seasonal sleepwear. I’ve found that you pretty much have to buy them now to get the good ones in the sizes you want. And, if you have high hopes of getting a matching set for your whole family, then you definitely need to jump on that.

I have already purchased a few pairs of PJs for this year now I can fulfill my cheesy mom dreams of dressing my two kids alike.  I’ve linked some adorable and affordable options below, especially with some really great deals for 30-50% off right now at some of my favorite retailers to pick up PJs for kids. I got these onesie PJs with cats for Emmaline, and I actually picked up this festive PJ set  for Braden and Emmaline last year and they have them again. I also think this firetruck set is so, so cute for boys. If you have nieces, nephews or friends with kids, these make great gifts to give now when you see them for the Thanksgiving holidays!

I put together one widget for the kids, and one for adults and family sets. I think this might be the only set I might be able to coerce Ben into wearing, or perhaps a pair of pants only in this pattern. Don’t be surprised if you see me documenting Braden and Emmaline’s matchy-matchy ways soon. 😉 Happy shopping!

Loving Lately: Weekend Sale Finds

March 9, 2018

I’ve come across some really great sales online that are helping me getting into the mood for spring! I’m typically not a fan of buying maternity clothes, so I try to buy tops that are flowy and will work during and after pregnancy. One way to perk up your spring wardrobe is to pick up a few pieces of jewelry in lighter or brighter colors. This is a great way to freshen up outfits from last season and, this is my favorite part, I don’t feel like a stuffed sausage with earrings like I sometimes do with jeans while trying to grow a human. 😉 I found these light pink fringe earrings a few weeks ago and I’ve been wearing them a lot and getting tons of compliments. They’re currently on sale for 40% off (through 3/10) with the code NEWNOW at check out, making them $20. Another retailer I shop regularly is also having a 40% off sale as well through 3/12 with the code FRIENDS40. I love their shoes, so this is a great time to stock up on some spring styles like this suede block sandal, which I have in 4 colors (as seen here and here), or this nude heel with ruffle detail, which would be so cute with a spring dress for a wedding or other special occasion.

Happy shopping!
