Red Plaid Sherpa Cardigan

Happy hump day everyone! Who's ready for the weekend already? I know I sure am! I have a hair appointment on Friday afternoon and I'm so ready for it. My hair hasn't had any love in almost 4 months...too busy with the holidays then my stylist called in sick. Oh well, it's a new year and it's going to be awesome!! Speaking of awesome, I have the absolute cutest cardigan EVER to share with you. I fell in love with this adorable cardigan the moment I saw it and I know you will love it as much as I do. So, what is this cardigan that I speak of and where can you get one for yourself?


The Cardigan
I found this cardigan totally by accident while shopping at Walmart with my mom and I knew immediately I had to have it! That's honestly usually the way it happens when I shop at Walmart. They always end up having an adorable little gem that I can't live without. LOL. The first thing that caught my eye with this beauty was of course the red plaid. I love wearing red plaid especially in the winter so this was right up my alley. Then I noticed it was sherpa lined!!! OMG I love sherpa lined stuffed. It's always so soft and warm...perfect for those cold winter days so I HAD to have this one for sure and at less than $15 it was a steal! I guess some might consider this a jacket but since it doesn't have any buttons or closures of any kind I'm considering it a cardigan ;) One piece of advice: go up at least one size from what you normally wear with this one. It can be a bit snug and I actually ended up ripping a seam on mine (easily fixable though). Unfortunately this beauty is no longer available online so I linked a similar one for you below, but there may be one still hanging on the rack at your local Walmart so be sure to go take a look. So, how did I end up styling this cutie and how can you change it up to match your style?


My Style
The day I wore this cardigan it was super cold outside and I wasn't feeling all too great so I wanted to keep the style simple and casual. I wore a basic pair of dark denim skinny jeans from Forever 21, a plain black long sleeve t-shirt from Walmart, and my super adorable black lace up fur boots from JustFab. Forever 21 is my go to for skinny jeans now since they have basic ones for less than $10 and they actually fit pretty well too for the price. Also, Walmart and Forever 21 are the best places I've found for basic solid colored tees whether long or short sleeved. I've had this one for about a year now so it might be time to replace it soon. These boots are the best ever! I loved them the moment I saw them on the JustFab website and I'm pretty sure I got them on sale (it's been a few years so I don't remember exactly). JustFab is a great place to get good quality shoes and not pay an arm and a leg for them :) If you want to style this cardigan in more of a dressy way you could always wear a cute pair of heeled boots instead of the flat ones that I'm wearing. You could also wear leggings instead of jeans for more of a seamless look but make sure to get fleece lined ones in case it's cold outside. I'm sure you will look great no matter how you end up styling this beauty ;)

Must Have Monday

Hey everyone and happy Monday! I hope you had an amazing New Year's Eve. I did absolutely nothing but curl up in front of the TV with my sweetie and watch movies. Maybe next year I'll go out. LOL. I am glad 2017 is finally here. I have so many things in the works for this year and so many ideas to start working on that I hope will help me be able to quit by job and work from home by the end of the year. Fingers crossed ;) To kick off this new year right I decided to feature one of my favorite designers and the weird yet adorable purses that she always comes out with. I'm sure you've heard of Kate Spade right?! I have become somewhat obsessed with her products over the past year and I think there's no better way to start the first Must Have Monday post of the year than by featuring her. So, what super cute off-the-wall purses have I found from her???


Must Haves
1-Toothy monster face purse (Neiman Marcus, $378)
2-Unicorn balloon purse (Kate Spade, $498)
3-Magic Rabbit purse (Kate Spade, $398)
4-Pigs Fly purse (Modalist, $448)
5-Perfume bottle purse (Nordstrom, SOLD OUT)

I LOVE the toothy monster face purse. It's super cute and very unique. This is just one example of why I love Kate Spade so much. Of course she has normal super pretty purses too, but sometimes it's fun to have something this cute as an adult :) This unicorn balloon purse reminds me of all the carnivals and circuses I went to as a child. Some clown was always making balloon animals and for Kate Spade to think of this as a design for a purse is simply genius. Such an adorable purse and I'd proudly wear it just about anywhere :) Who else thinks this magic rabbit purse is the cutest thing ever?! I love how fuzzy and adorable it is. I think this would make a great purse for the spring season (think Easter) and I'd love to have one to wear for Easter Sunday. Oh, on the Kate Spade website there's also a rabbit coming out of a black hat purse that is super cute!!! :) I know you've heard of the saying "when pigs fly"...well now they do in this adorable unique purse by the great Kate Spade! I really want this purse and I may ask for it as a Valentine's gift :) This perfume bottle purse is so adorable and of course a great idea for a cute little clutch purse. Unfortunately it's no longer available in most stores but be looking for it to show up in stores like Ross or Marshalls :) All of these purses are both unique and adorable. I think my favorite is the pigs fly followed by the toothy monster face. These are great gift ideas for your bffs birthday or just to treat yourself...we deserve to treat ourselves every now and then right?! ;) You can shop all these purses HERE!


Aren't these purses adorable? Which one is your favorite? I'd love to hear from you so leave me a comment and let me know what you think. Be sure to spread the love and share this post with all your friends who would love these purses as much as I do. I hope you have an amazing week and happy shopping :)

Wish Review-Blue Shift Dress

Happy Friday everyone!! I'm so glad the weekend is finally here. It was one tough week at work but I plan to enjoy the rest of tonight and all day tomorrow relaxing with my sweetie in front of the fireplace and watching some TV. So, who has plans for New Year's Eve? Anyone doing any online shopping this weekend? If you've been following this blog for a while then you know I'm OBSESSED with my wish app. I honestly feel it's the greatest thing since sliced bread. Unfortunately not everything you get from there is top quality so I love buying stuff and sharing my opinion with you :) I get to feed my little shopping addiction while helping out my readers...talk about killing two birds with one stone LOL. I've actually been away from Wish for awhile (so I could pay down my credit card), but I'm back at it strong and luckily my first purchase was a huge WIN! So, what amazing deal did I find this time and how did I end up styling it?


Blue Shift Dress
As I was scrolling through my Wish app (like I do every single day), I came across this adorable long sleeve shift dress for only $7. I was a little skeptical at first seeing as the last dress I ordered from Wish was horrible, but I decided for that price I could at least give it a try. The hardest part was choosing which color I wanted. All of them are so pretty and I could easily style each and every one, but this bold blue color really caught my attention. This particular shade of blue is not only super pretty but it also looks really great with my skin tone. I was torn on what size to get because many of the reviews suggested that the dress was made too small, but I trusted my instinct and went with my normal size. Boy am I glad I did! The dress was a perfect fit and I love how it looks on me. So, how did I end up styling this beauty and how can you change it up to match your style?


My Style
I was wearing this beautiful dress on Christmas day to visit my boyfriend's family so I knew I wanted to dress it up a bit and make it really pretty. I had purchased this awesome colorful musical note scarf from Hot Topic on clearance a few months back and I knew it would look great so I decided to wear it with the dress. I was right! The colors blend very well together and I got sooooo many compliments on this scarf that I will keep it forever!! ;) For the shoes I wanted something a little bold but neutral in color so I went with the new boots my mom got me for Christmas from Burke's Outlet. I love these boots so much. They are such a great color to wear with any outfit and they are super dressy which was a huge plus! I think overall the outfit was a hit and I was very happy with how it turned out :) To change it up a bit you could always wear a different type of scarf and throw on some rocking high heels. If you can't wear heels then an adorable pair of flats will look just as good as will some sandals, when it gets warmer of course :)

Blue Sporty Tunic Sweater

Happy hump day everyone! I can't believe that it's Wednesday already. This week has just flown by, but I'm glad because I'm one day closer to the weekend and the New Year :) Who has plans for this weekend already? I do!! This year instead of going to someone's house or to some big event, me and my sweetie are staying home and relaxing in front of the TV. Unfortunately I have to work New Year's Day so for New Year's Eve I just want to relax and enjoy time with my sweetie. If, like me, you also plan to spend the day relaxing then I have the perfect sweater for you. Not only is it super comfy but it's also really cute and will be perfect for lounging around the house or doing a little shopping. So, what is this sweater and where can you snag one for yourself?



The Sweater
I found this sweater while out black Friday shopping at JCPenney and I thought it was super cute and I knew I had the perfect boots to go with it. I LOVE wearing sweaters during the winter and I can get a little crazy buying them, but in my personal opinion you can never have too many sweaters...kinda like shoes ;) This particular sweater caught my attention because of the slight sporty look. I love the little stripes on the arms and the number on the chest give this sweater just enough of the sporty look to be cute, but not over the top (FYI I'm not a huge sports fan) The fact that this sweater is also a tunic is a huge plus because I'll also be able to wear this cutie with some adorable leggings in the future. I also love the slits on the sides. I'm a bit hippy so these slits help to keep the sweater from hugging my hips too tightly and of course give this sweater just one more notch on the cuteness factor :) Combine all this together with the fact I got this sweater on sale for less than $10 and it's a huge score for this fashionista!! This sweater is no longer available online so I linked a similar one below. I'm sure they may still have a few on the clearance rack of your local store ;) So, how did I end up styling this cutie and how can you change it up to match your style?


My Style
I knew the moment I bought this sweater that I wanted the style to be comfy and casual. I've had an awesome pair of Union Jack Dr. Martens that I got from Journeys for a couple of years now that I hardly ever wear because I can never find anything to match them without wearing just a plain solid top. I was excited that this sweater went great with them so I decided to make this look sporty meets grunge :) Throw on a pair of skinny jeans from Abercrombie and Fitch and I had a super adorable and comfy outfit that I loved wearing. If Dr. Martens aren't your thing you can always wear a cute pair of Converse sneakers instead. In fact this sweater would go great with my white Converse and I may just wear them next time with those leggings I was talking about ;) You can also wear a cute pair of flats or even some fur boots like UGGs.

Must Have Monday

Hey everyone and happy Monday!! I hope you had an amazing Christmas. I know I sure did. 3 different houses in 2 days was fun yet hectic, but I did get to spend some time with family and friends and of course there was great food and gift giving ;) Now that Christmas is over it's time to get ready for New Year's!! Do you have New Year's Eve plans yet? My plan this year is to stay home in front of the fireplace in my pajamas and watch the celebrations on TV. No I'm not a boring person LOL...I have to work on New Year's Day so I don't want to be out all night and hung over in the morning. But, for my fashionistas who plan to hit up the club or an awesome party I have the perfect New Year's Eve essentials for you. For today's Must Have Monday post I decided to pick a few things that are must haves for every woman going out this coming Saturday night....not only do you want to ring in the New Year, but you want to look your best doing it ;) 


Must Haves
1-Gold heels (Flannels, $185)
2-New Years headband and gold phone case (Etsy, $22) (Macy's, $29)
3-Star Bag (Harrods, $1,100)
4-Gold Dress (IndieXO, $88)
5-Red lipstick (Dior, $38)

Every fashionista needs a killer pair of heels for New Year's Eve! It doesn't matter what color scheme you decide to go with, but I chose these awesome gold ones because if I were going out I'd definitely want to stand out in the crowd :) No New Year's Eve party is complete without either a New Year's headband or those awesome New Year's glasses. I threw in an adorable gold phone case because no fashionista would be caught dead without her phone and you want to make sure you stay flashy...right ladies?? LOL :) No one wants to carry a huge purse around at the club, but us ladies need to have certain essentials on us at all times...just in case...so this adorable star shaped bag would be perfect for your New Year's Eve celebrations. It's small, adorable, and can be thrown over your shoulder for easy carry. There are many types of small bags you could carry so find one that's right for your outfit and you'll never be far away from your necessities :) What goes great with killer heels? A killer dress that's what! I chose this super hot gold dress to match the heels because it is exactly the kind of dress I'd wear out to the club. Remember ladies, New Year's Eve is the perfect time to wear that flashy dress and be proud of it :) To top of any awesome New Year's Eve outfit you need the perfect shade of lipstick! I chose this beautiful red color because it's really bold and I think it's perfect for any club or party you might attend this weekend. Of course you need to be sure to pick the right shade of red for your skin tone. I once bought a bright red color without trying it on and it looked horrible on me. Remember ladies you want to look amazing not weird :) No matter what color or style you decide to wear this New Year's Eve be sure to rock it girlfriend :) You can shop all these amazing items HERE!


What are your plans for New Year's Eve? Are you planning to hit up the club or maybe a friends party? What do you plan to wear for the big day? Which item above is your favorite? I'd love to hear from you so leave me a comment and let me know what you think. Be sure to spread the love and share this post with all your friends who are planning to go out for New Year's Eve this year. I hope you have an amazing week and happy shopping :)
