Basic Invite

Recently I was contacted by Basic Invite to share their beautiful invitations, announcements and stationary with you. We have a Halloween party coming up and Basic Invite worked perfectly to share that invite with friends! With some many cute halloween invitations to chose from, the possibilities  are nearly limitless.

Basic Invite

Recently I was contacted by Basic Invite to share their beautiful invitations, announcements and stationary with you. Although I am past the baby shower and announcement stage in my life, I do love stationary. With technology as it is, an actual note sent through actual mail seems much more special now that it used to. Whether it's a note to a friend or a thank you, I love the opportunity to send them. I chose this style and this one and was able to personalize them too! When they arrived the paper quality was excellent and they did not disappoint! I feel like with personalized stationary I can check off another box in my "adulting" checklist too. ; )

Spring Style with Shopko

I've been wanting to try a jumpsuit, but hadn't found the right one until I was shoppingat Shopko recently. The second I saw this one and felt the super soft fabric, I knew it was worth a try. It's easy to pull on and off, with an elastic waist and you can't beat the price! I decided to dress it up with these wedges, which also help to elongate my legs, verses cutting them off at the ankle, which can happen when wearing any jumpsuit or pant in this length. I also added my denim jacket for structure, however I think it would be great with a boyfriend cardigan too.

Currently Shopko is having it's Friends and Family Sale and it's the perfect time to stock up on great spring and summer styles, like this jumpsuit. 

Luxury at a Great Price with Shopko

Brian and I have been in need of new towels for our bathroom for quite sometime, but have been dragging our feet. Our towels at the time were pretty nice, until Brian bought bleach pellets to put in with the towels, thinking it wouldn't effect the color....unfortunately he was wrong, so our pretty nice brown towels were covered with pinkish bleach spots. Bummer.

When buying new towels, price is something we really pay attention to, but ultimately, we want thick, luxuries towels, and usually that means a pretty high price point...which we aren't crazy about. When Shopko asked to partner with me on a post, I knew I wanted to check out their towels, and you guys, they are so nice!

I was most impressed with the Hotel by Club Grand brand and the prices are so fair! Currently Shopko is having the "Stop, Shop, & Drop the Prices" sale, and that means huge saving for you!

We've been using the hand towels, bath towels, and wash clothes for the past week and they have washed well, are super absorbent, and super soft. The are hands down the best towels we've had!

Pretty Prints

Recently I got the change to try another dress from eshakti. I've gotten dresses from them in the past and love how everything is customizable. From the length to the style, to a custom fit-you can really build the perfect dress, just for you. I chose this Georgettee Dress because I adored the print! I've gotten rid of a lot of clothes from my closet and recently realized that of the dresses I still own, all but two are really only spring/summer dresses. Even though I don't wear dresses a ton once the temperatures  drop, I like to wear them occasionally. 

The fit on this dress is perfect! I didn't own a midi length dress, so I took a change and really like it here! I had meant to adjust the neckline, as the original style is too low for my taste, but accidentally didn't check the right box, so I styled it with a cami underneath and think that works fine. I wore my Franco Sarto heels, they are no longer available, but these heels from Old Navy are similar in style and have a great price point. I also kept it a bit casual with my denim jacket. I'd like to wear a tan cardigan with it too, but mine bit the dust and I haven't been able to find a replacement yet. Whomp, whomp.

Once again, by experience with eshakti has been great. I love the dress and am looking forward to getting a lot of use out of it!

Maple Holistics

I shared with you all last month some new products I'd gotten to try from Maple Holistics and they've sent me a few new things to try! First off, I tried this Opulence Under Eye Cream. Being I'm nearly 40 I've become a bit more aware of the aging around the eyes. I've used a few other creams, but was excited to give this one a try. It promises to reduce wrinkles and bags as well as brighten the eye area. I've used it for a few weeks and while I can't attest to it's impact on wrinkles, I do feel like my eyes look brighter and more awake. It's a light cream and doesn't take much, so I think this jar will last for a long time. I'm excited to see the long term results!

Fall Style

In the last few years I've made a major shift in closet from cheap, synthetic shoes to only wearing leather shoes and my feet have been so much happier. I recently got these loafers from 4EurSole. I've worked with them in the past and am excited to show you these loafers. I wore them for the first time last Saturday while I was out running around with the family and was super pleased with the first wear. No rubbing on my heels and they were really comfortable too. I love the classic style and they are the perfect in-between within my closet when I'm not in the mood for booties or ballet flats.

I also got this top and these ankle pants recently at Loft too. I'd like to get a burgundy cami for underneath, but don't mind the navy. These ankle pants are my favorite and I have a number of them, they wear super well, don't stretch, and the color hasn't faded on them either.

I feel like my closet has become a lot more classic in this past year, I've been keeping it pretty simple and am pretty happy about that. If you're looking for new shoes for the fall, I'd definitely recommend 4EurSole!
