    SALES

    Happy Thursday! I know I haven’t posted in a while, but I just feel like the last month has slipped away from me! Last week we welcomed spring, and with spring weather right around the corner, it’s time for a wardrobe upgrade!!

    There are a few really great sales going on right now and I wanted to take a minute and talk about two of them! I just made purchases from both of these stores yesterday and I can’t wait to get my things in the mail so I can show y’all.

    The Loft:

    Shop at The Loft and use promo code HELLO for  40% OFF almost everything! Valid until Saturday, March 31. I know that there is still winter weather in most parts of the country, but how can you pass up 40% off new arrival items!?

    • Polka Dot Tie Waist Dress – $80, with promo code only $48. Ok, how cute is this dress!? I got this in petite XS as the perfect summer type work outfit. It is available in both regular and petite sizing (fully stocked in both). It has a ruffled keyhole neckline, flutter sleeves and a tie waist.

    • Stacked Stone Pendant Necklace – On Sale for $30, with promo code only $18. I love long necklaces; they’re my go to for wearing to work. This one has 4 pendants on it in a drop fashion. I can’t wait to get this, I know that it will match with almost everything in my closet!

    • Embroidered Bar Back Flutter Top – $55, with promo code only $33. I got this in a petite XS. It comes in both regular and petite sizing, but is no longer available in an XS in either size option. An embroidered yoke, cutout flutter sleeves, and a sleek bar back anchor this dreamy with modern romance. It has a round neck, short flutter sleeves, and a bar v-back.

    white top

    • Eyelet Wrap Peplum Top – $60, with promo code only $36. I ordered this in a petite 2, but may have to exchange for a smaller size. This top comes in regular (size 2-16 available) and petite (size 00-12 available) sizing. The wrap effect makes this eyelet top sooo flattering. It has a crossover v-neck, flutter cap sleeves, is shirred beneath the waist, and has a v-back with zipper.

    pink top

    The grand total for this shopping trip would have come out to about $225, but with the promo code HELLO, my total came out to only $134! There is free shipping with orders over $125. This is a little more than I would have liked to spend, but I figure I can always return whatever doesn’t work out.

    Ann Taylor:

    Shop at Ann Taylor and use promo code HOPTOIT for  40% OFF almost everything! Valid until Saturday, March 31.

    • Clip Dot Flutter Tee – $50, with promo code only $30. I ordered a petite XS in the faded pink color. This top is super cute and looks flowy. Definitely could be a great work top for Spring/Summer. I love the pattern on sleeve, it gives it a textured look. It comes in white and faded pink and is available in both regular and petite sizing (fully stocked in both colors). Side note: it comes in black (XXS-M still available) in the regular size, but not in petite.

    pink top 2

    • Shirred Cuff Top – On Sale for $40, with promo code only $40. I ordered a XS in this top in the Winter White color. I loved how this top will be the perfect transition piece from Winter to Spring. The shirred cuffs will add a bit of volume to the sleeve. This top comes in white (fully stocked) and in a light blue color (only available in size XXL).  The website says this top is selling fast, so hurry and go check it out!

    long sleeve

    My total before adding in the promo code came out to $89.50, but after adding promo code HOPTOIT, my total came out to $53.70! Also if you have Shop Runner, this purchase qualifies for free 2-day shipping.

    The items I purchased definitely fall under Spring styles. I’ve got some pretty pastels, and eyelet patterns. I can guarantee that we will be seeing a whole lot of eyelet and pastel and ruffles (which I did not purchase)!

    Let me know if any of you guys are doing some Spring shopping and tell me what kinds of things you got!

    On Wednesday We Wear PINK

    Happy Wednesday y’all! I hope you guys are having an amazing week so far! I know I am, but then again I only have today and tomorrow left of my work week! I just wanted to hop on and share one of my favorite late winter looks with you guys. I don’t know about you guys, but SoCal is finally getting some winter type weather! FINALLY, I can pull out my sweaters. My outfit is still fully stocked!

    SWEATER:

    My sweater is super soft and comfy and can be worn as a regular sweater or you can pull it off the shoulder for a little sassier look! The best part is… it’s on SALE right now. It’s normally $80, but is on sale for $50.99…but wait, it gets even better, it’s an additional 30% off making it only $35.69!! Talk about a steal, that’s more than 50% off the original price! It comes in 5 colors: Amazon Green (only sz Small), Taupe (XS-L), Light Pink (XS-L), Maroon (XS, limited quantity Small, L), and Hot Pink (XS-L). I have the light pink in the XS and I feel that it does run a little on the big side. I normally get Smalls in all my sweaters, but this one worked out better in a smaller size, so I would recommend sizing down!

    JEANS:

    I got my jeans for my birthday back in July, so I couldn’t find the exact pair that I’m wearing. I found some that were almost identical though. I’ve been wearing them since July and washed them countless times, and the black color hasn’t faded. I love the way they fit…they aren’t too tight but have just enough stretch to make them super comfy to wear all day! I would say that they run true to size. I got a 25 which is a 0 in most brands.

    BOOTIES:

    Unfortunately you can’t see my booties, but they are last season Steve Madden that I got at Nordstrom Rack. I’ve linked the most similar pair I could find! I run true to size in Steve Madden and I always get a 6.5.

  • February Faves

    February Faves

    Good morning and happy Wednesday friends! My teams cheer season ended this past weekend, so now that I no longer have practice after work, I’ve realized I have a lot more free time. I’ve been using my new found free time to get some stuff done over at the condo before Robert moves in. Last night was spent taking the old shelf liners out of every drawer/cabinet. My mom came with me and started laying new lining down in the pantry.

    I’ve been meaning to write about some of my favorite products that I use on a daily basis. I’ve been hard core crushing on a few beauty products lately and felt like I should share with y’all what they were!

    IT COSMETICS Your Skin But Better CC+ Cream with SPF 50+ – $15-$38

    Ok, I didn’t used to wear this, but it’s a total game changer. This cream is perfect for covering up any discolored or splotchy looking skin. It eliminates any redness I might have and completely evens out my skin tone. I usually put this on before I put my concealer on so that my face is even. I love that it glides on so smooth and feels weightless all day! I apply it using a sponge I bought at Target (here). The only negative thing I will say is this (and this is a no brainer), wash your face and get all the makeup off your face before going to bed because you will get a pimple or two if you leave this on overnight! It comes in shades Fair to Deep giving you seven options to choose from. You can also test it out and buy the mini size in either Light or Medium. You can also find this cream at Macy’s.

    MAKE UP FOR EVER Pro Finish Multi-Use Powder Foundation – $37

    I have been using this powder FOREVER!!! I used to use a different powder, but found my skin was breaking out from it, so my hairdresser recommended this one a few years ago and I fell in love. The powder comes in 21 shades ranging from Pink Porcelain to Neutral Ebony. I vary between 115 Pink Ivory and 118 Neutral Beige depending on the time of year. This is a breakthrough multiuse formula that can be applied as a foundation or setting powder. It is super lightweight and doesn’t look cakey when applied!

    I use the MAC 150 brush when applying my powder. You can find the brush at:

    CLINIQUE Take The Day Off Makeup Remover for Lids, Lashes & Lips – $9.50-$19

    I first purchased the travel size because I wasn’t sure if I would like it or not, but I did and went and bought the full size. This makeup remover is great because I don’t feel like it dries out my skin after I use it. It effortlessly dissolves longwearing makeup, even waterproof mascara. The Sephora website says that it is suitable for contact lens wearers and I 100% agree! It doesn’t irritate my eyes if I forget to take my contacts out before wiping away my eye makeup. I use these cotton rounds from Target to help get all the makeup off from my eyes and lips!

    TORY BURCH Love Relentlessly Perfume – $30-$118

    I actually bought this the day before my London trip because I ran out of perfume and was looking for something new to wear. I usually go towards more floral scents and this one is filled with Pink Pepper, Rose, Orris, and Sandalwood. Love Relentlessly captures the euphoric feeling of falling in love and the bottle is so pretty. This perfume comes in the roller size (perfect for traveling) and three other sizes that you spray on yourself.

    So there you have it, those are my top items that are currently on repeat in my beauty routine. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to ask me! Let me know if you end up picking up any of my fave items!
