Nordstrom Anniversary Sale

Okay, sit down, get comfortable and maybe get a cup of coffee because I am only going to write about the famous Nordstrom Sale once on the blog so this is going to be a long post. I will be coming back to add to this blog post when the sale starts to add my favorite items as well as items that are worth buying. I will be putting easy to shop links on my Blog Facebook page, so be sure to follow along there. Once the sale starts, I will have links to shop the Nordstrom Sale that I hope you use when making purchases because then I get a very small commission for each link clicked and purchases made with my link. Since every other blogger out there is going to be writing about it, I wanted to put my two cents in about some tricks I have learned over the years and talk about what is actually worth purchasing. I am a broke, full time working, shoe loving, rent-paying gal over here, so I make sure to justify any purchase before buying it because buying new shoes may mean pasta for dinner for the third night in a row next week to balance my budget!

Loft Summer Celebration Blogger Event

It honestly was such a surprise to be invited because while I call myself a “blogger”, I feel more like a wannabe blogger because I don’t put as much time and energy in it like other bloggers do. This little blog started as a creative outlet like most blogs start, but I don’t pay for photos, I use my iPhone to take pictures and my mom is taking most of my outfit photos!  So, of course, this event felt like a “hey mom, I made it moment!” One of the exciting parts of this whole day was being called a blogger by other people besides my close friends. This honestly has and always will be a hobby of mine, so it means the world when strangers look to me as an influencer. A lot of time and energy goes into photos on Instagram or a blog post, so it means the world to me when people notice my hard work. Continue reading “Loft Summer Celebration Blogger Event”

National Stripes Day with J. Crew!

In case you didn’t know, it is the second annual National Stripes Day. Now, this holiday may not be in your planner because it is not an official holiday, but it is one that should not go uncelebrated! Working at J. Crew the last two years has resulted in stripes taking over my closet. I never knew there could be so many different variations of stripes! J Crew is always coming out with new stripe shirts that I just neeeed to have. Working in retail allows me to get creative in making outfits transforming them from wear to work outfits to stylish daily outfits. A striped t shirt can be worn with a blazer to work or with ripped denim and loafers on the weekends.
