Time for some shopping!
Pinterest WIN: Dessert Skewers
I love trying out new Pinterest recipes! While some turn out to be not so great (like my disaster last Memorial Day), others are a huge win (like this crowd pleaser that has become my go-to)!
I was in the market for an *easy* dessert recipe, and these skewers were exactly that!
Simple & Stylish Patriotic Manicures
I love holiday manicures & the 4th of July is the perfect time to get creative!
Now, as much as I’m into my nails, I’m not really into crazy nail art. I do mix it up a little bit, but overall, I’m pretty simple when it comes to my manis which surprises people, but it’s just my style. 🙂
This weekend, my cousin is actually getting married [SO EXCITED!!] so I’m opting out of a festive red, white, and blue mani in exchange for a polish that compliments my dress – but that doesn’t mean I haven’t been oogling the fun designs that have been coming across my social timelines!
Here are a couple of my favorite, simplistic, but still ode-to-America manicure picks!
Did you find a cute mani design for the 4th? Link it below!
I hope that everyone has a safe & Happy 4th of July weekend!

End-Of Summer Shopping
So I found this post from August in my drafts and realized that I never published it! Whoops!
Better late than never. Enjoy 🙂 —->
I’d say that this is the saddest, yet most exciting time of the year for most ladies. Summer is coming to an end (which is down right depressing), but Fall & it’s phenomenal fashion is just around the corner!
I took a mini shopping trip over the weekend to some of my favorite go-to bargain spots. I wasn’t in the mood to go spending money for the heck of it, so I told myself that I would only pick up things that I absolutely loved, that were suitable for work, and that would be good assets to my wardrobe!
I rarely go to the mall, but I had to make a trip to the Apple store. While I was there, I figured I would stop by Forever21 and H&M. I tried on a few things that I really liked, but didn’t meet my criteria for purchase – so I decided to sit on them and return another time if they stayed on my mind. Glad I did, because I kind of forgot about them already lol.
However, I did need a new tote for my laptop, and lucked out at H&M!
I’ve been on the hunt for fitted slacks – I always buy pairs that are too long & need to be hemmed (which I never do) so straight legged, ankle pants are my new go-to! I stopped by TJ’s to peruse their selection and found this great pair of navy blue Cynthia Rowley slacks. I’ve said it before & I’ll say it again – Cynthia Rowley designs are amazing! The quality, the fabrics, the fit! I swear. Everything I try on feels as though it was tailored just for me.
Next to TJ’s is one of my high school faves, Mandees! I’m starting to feel a little too old for this store, but the cute & affordable finds keep driving me in!
I’m really excited about my finds & the upcoming Fall season! I’ll definitely be keeping my eyes open & picking up some more pieces here & there!
Have you started Fall shopping?
Where did you score some good finds?
St. Patrick’s Day Manicures
I may be Italian, but I’d never miss the opportunity to celebrate a holiday on my fingernails!
Here are some of the best St. Patrick’s Day manicures I’ve seen yet!
While I doubt I’ll be enjoying any corned beef or cabbage this evening (ick!) I just may be playing around with my collection of green polishes!
Are you rocking a St. Patty’s day manicure today? Tweet me a pic. 🙂
