Spring Ready

So who's happy we are having warmer weather?

I know I am! :)

I love fall and winter clothes, but I love warm weather even more!

Now, I haven't updated my spring wardrobe yet. There are a few items I have my eye on!

One thing is this romper from Cheeky Peach!
They have the cutest stuff
They can be a little pricey, but this romper would be great for spring and summer!
For those colder spring days just throw on a cardigan.
You can pair this with flats, sandals, or flip flops.
This can be dressed up or dressed down!

I'm usually not a fan of rompers because all the ones I've tried just don't look right.
This one doesn't even look like a romper and it look super comfortable!
My next pay check might go to this!!

If you shop on Cheeky Peach today before midnight and use the code BREAKUP

you'll get 30% off your purchase! 

They also have free shipping if you pick up your item at their Athens location!

So hurry up and start shopping!

****

The next thing I have my eye on are these wedges from Entourage

These are great for spring and of course summer.

The brown allows you to pair these with everything.

They look great with skinny jeans, shorts, dresses, or hey even that romper! 

****

Entourage also has this clutch handbag

They have it in Mint and Cream. 

Mint is one of my favorite colors so I'd probably get that one.

The mint is very springy. I also think the mint could go with a lot as well as the cream!

Be on the look out for spring outfits to come.

In the mean time go find yourself some savvy deals of your own!

Happy Spring!

Fab Finds

Everyone loves a good shopping day! 

Yesterday was well spent shopping with my mom. I learned all my savvy shopping ways from her!

She's always looking for the most fabulous finds!

We spent our rainy Tuesday at The Mall of Georgia.

The mall in Athens kinda blows..

My fab finds of the day!

I'd say I did pretty good!

****

I found most of this at American Eagle.

American Eagle is one of my favorite stores!

They always have a good clearance rack..

I also had gift cards from Christmas to Macy's and Express.

I figured why not use them..

****

Both these tops are from American Eagle.

• The Navy Blue top is originally $25 and I got it for $8!! 

It said this top is a crop top, but I got a size up. Now it's just a super comfy, casual top.

I'm really not a fan of crop tops, but that's because I can't pull one off..

plus no one wants to see your stomach..

• The pinkish grey top is originally $30 and I got it for $10!!

It said on the tag that it was a sweater, but the material is so thin and soft

it would be great for spring weather!

Both of these tops are great for any season!

Both can be paired with shorts, capris, and of course jeans!

The necklace is from Altar'd State.

• The necklace is originally $18 and I got it for $5!!

I absolutely love this store!

Sadly, they are a bit out of my budget..

Reasons I only bought a necklace..

If I could, I would buy everything in this story!

The Brownish cardigan in the first picture is from American Eagle.

• The cardigan is originally $35 I got it for $12

Like I need more cardigans!

But hey, you can never have too many.

The jeans in the first picture are also from American Eagle

• The jeans were originally $55 and I got them for $20!!

I love American Eagle jeans.

They always fit just right and are super comfortable.

You can find the jeans here!

****

This scarf is from Express, which I used my gift card at 

• It was originally $35 and I got it for $15

Like I need any more scarfs, but hey you can never have too many..

Right??

This scarf kind of solves the need for me to get a blanket scarf,

it's close enough to one.

plus it's lighter so I can wear it in warmer weather

You can find the scarf here!

****

This Dress is From Macy's, which I also used my gift card at.

• This Denim & Supply - Ralph Lauren dress was originally $100 and I got it for $25!!

When I saw the original price of this dress I freaked out a little..

I was not expecting it to be that expensive..

But I love this dress!

It is incredibly comfortable and it has pockets!

Dresses that have pockets make me happy!

****

Yesterday was a well needed shopping day and

I think I found some pretty good deals!

Everything total at original price is:

$300

Everything total that I payed:

$95

Total savings of:

$205

Plus, with the use of my gift cards

I paid a total of...

$55

Now if that's not a savvy shopper then I don't know what is!

Everyone can be a savvy shopper. Just take the time to look!

:) Happy shopping!

Snow Days

I know its been awhile since I've posted. I have just gotten caught up in all this snow! It doesn't snow too much in Georgia. Usually all we get is ice and that's no fun.. 

But this time we got snow, actual SNOW! 

Oh yeah and classes got cancelled too :) 

The funny thing is our spring break is this coming week and it's 30 degrees out and there's snow everywhere.

Now that's messed up!!

But it's okay becasue I'll be working over my spring break. No warm beach for me.. :(

To everyone going to the beach... I am extremely jealous of you.

...well back to our snow days...

This cutie is one of my good friends, Tiff, and we braved the cold together to head to our dinning hall! Yeah we'll do anything for food! 

Tiff is also from Miami. Small world!

Even being from Miami this girl LOVES the snow!

Now for me I like the snow but only for so long. I'm someone that needs to be on the beach with 80 degree weather.. Now that's the life!

One thing I have noticed is when it snows the outfit chocies get a little weird!

Like I said I'm someone who belongs on a beach so I don't have the proper clothes for this kind of weather!

Can you believe the jacket I'm wearing I bought in middle school for a school trip to Pennsylvania? 

Surprisingly it's from Areopostale! I honestly can't remember the last time I set foot in there but hey this jacket is coming in handy, plus it's warm!

So never underestimate a store!

Yes, on these snow days it's leggings for days!!

I'm sure every girl can agree with me!!

Here are two other girls that mean a lot too me! 

Drea and Katie.

Now Drea definantly has the right shoes for this weather!

I don't know the brand of shoes she has on but they are similar to those duck boots that everyone wants. 

There is a pair from Kinnucans that I really like!

They are defiantly good for snow or just rain.

I hope everyone who got snow has had a blast playing in it and to everyone going to the beach for spring break, catch some rays for me!

Ladies in Red!

I'm sure everyone knows that tomorrow is Valentine's Day and I'm sure many of us have some exciting plans!

But what if you're single?? 

It's okay to be single, honestly sometimes it's better to be! 

If you're in a relationship, this might not be the post for you because yes, I'm going to bash a little on Valentine's Day. Let's be honest it's just a day made by Hallmark. 

We should show our love for others every day, not just one day out of the year! 

It shouldn't be a day just for couples, why not a day to show how important some people are to you! 

Who are some people most important to you?

Who said you have to have a boyfriend on Valentine's Day when you can have a best friend!!

Spend the day with people you enjoy being with. 

Friends that make you laugh!

Friends that make you smile!

Friends that make you happy!

Grab your best gals and head over to Sugartopia in Cornelia to get all the sweets you can think about!

Grab your favorite Red Box and heck get yourself some pizza!

Have a girls night!!

Need help thinking of some all time favorite chick flicks?

Head over to LaurenConrad.com for their top ten chick flicks!

Don't let being single ruin your chance to have a good time!

Outfit #4

So I wasn't going to post this outfit, but I had a ton of people ask about it! (now when I say a ton of people I mean 2 people..haha close enough). I had someone tell me I looked hipster preppy.. I'll take that! If you want to make this more preppy then do pearls instead of the scarf and flats instead of the boots!

From My Closet:

• Cardigan from American Eagle but I found this one at Plato's Closet! Really any cardigan can work with this outfit.
• Polo button down and yes I also found this at Plato's Closet. It pays to shop at Plato's!

Keeping It Classy

These two dapper looking twins are keeping things real classy this morning at church! 

You can never go wrong with a classic button down, a blazer, and khakis.

For those of you who may not know the difference between a sports coat, a blazer, and a suit jacket, Jos.A.Bank explains it perfectly. They even mention how you can wear each jacket and if I must say so myself these two did a fine job, although a good bow-tie wouldn't hurt! :)
