I've made a few purchases lately and wanted to share them with y'all.  Late night nursing means scrolling instagram or Amazon...resulting in some purchases.

I recently got back into Thredup and snagged a few things for a steal!

 I picked up this really fun denim jacket with ruffle trim.  I love a denim jacket and the feminine detail on this one is so cute!  It is from the brand BP, originally from Nordstrom and was less than $20!

 

My other thredup find was this flowy peplum top from Urban Outfitters.  This top was instafamous a while back and I always loved it but didn't want to pay full price.  I snagged it from Thredup for less than half the price (I think I paid around $6).  I have already worn it a TON.  Bonus it is perfect for nursing as it is super flowy and covers well.

I have been looking for a pair of chic classic looking sandals and found these on Amazon.  They are such a good dupe. 

Here's a look at the thredup top and Amazon sandals in real life.

I thrifted this super cute striped henley top for $1 and can't wait to style it for fall.

Cow print is in and I LOVE it!  I picked up this wallet from Shein for $5 and it is so fun!

 

 

DSW had a major sale and I scored these Vans for around $16!  I was definitely inspired by Jen from TheSisterStudio on instagram to pick up the black and white version.  I wasn't sure how often I was going to wear them but they have been a go-to shoe lately. 

Let me know what you have picked up lately!

Time for a little virtual shopping haul!  I love seeing things that people have bought, hope y'all feel the same ;)

Here are a few things I have picked up over the past month or so:

Gingham Dress

I love gingham for summer and this one was green which you know is my favorite color to wear!  I was sold!  Now it is definitely a little sheer (but I solve that with another purchase below).  It is so cute with a denim jacket and sneakers.  I got an XS for reference and it is still super roomy.

Drawstring Hoodie

I have been wearing this hoodie pretty much non-stop since I got it.  It is so soft and lightweight, perfect for summer nights or freezing in the air conditioning.  It is perfectly slouchy and the pattern is so cute with little suns all over it.  These are on sale right now for $9! 

Cactus Embroidered Sweatshirt 

Belk was having a really good sale and I managed to pick up my favorite sweatshirt in a different style.  My mom got one of these sweatshirts for me for Christmas and I love it!  I knew I wanted another one so I picked up this cactus embroidered one for $9.  So crazy soft and relaxed.  I get mine in a medium and they are perfect for leggings.  I seriously live in mine in the fall and winter.

Nude Heels

Would you believe that I didn't have a classic pair of closed toe nude heels?  I have a few open toe options and of course the fabulous studded heels but not the classic standby.  DSW has been having the craziest sales for months and this one was AWESOME!  They had 60% off a select collection of shoes and accessories.  These shoes were already on sale and the discount brought them to $4.80!?!  I also had a reward for $5 plus you get free shipping if you are a rewards member so I picked up these for FREE!

Side note if you aren't a rewards member sign up here!  It's totally free and you are then able to earn points, I get coupons in the mail pretty often plus you get free shipping.

The heels are so pretty, I love the side cutout detail and they have some cushion on the inside so they are going to be comfy.

Office Chair

Since moving I have also started working from home (actually not due to COVID) I figured I needed to get a little more serious with my workspace and first up was a chair.  I wanted one that was pretty but also comfy and this one fit the bill.  It is simple and also not bulky so it actually fits under my desk.  It is also really comfy and less than $100! 

Nude Slip

Alright here is my answer for the sheer dress.  I have a few other slips but they all were too long or just not right for the outfit.  I decided to go ahead and pick this one up as I know it will be helpful with other outfits as well.  Just a good basic everyone should have in their wardrobe.  

Raffia Sneakers

Yet another crazy DSW sale find!  I had actually been eying these shoes a few months ago and thought they were so cute but I didn't want to pay the $50+ price tag.  They had a sale were a selection of shoes were marked at $14.99 and under...y'all these were marked at $9.99!  I couldn't believe it!  They are so cute and will be perfect for finishing up the summer and heading into fall.  I'm telling y'all don't pay full price at DSW they are ALWAYS having some kind of sale!

Peplum Thermal Top

I FINALLY got my hands on these tops!  Walmart had them last year and I missed out.  They brought them back this year and I jumped on them!  They are such a good Free People dupe and they are only $13!  I picked up the white and this charcoal gray color and got them in a size small.   I can't wait for the weather to cool down a little bit to get the chance to style them!

I have done a little shopping recently and thought I would share with you what I picked up.

This vest is great quality and looks like the J.Crew Excursion vest.  This one is from Madison and Mallory and is coming soon!!  I can't wait for fall so I can break this sucker out!!

While in NC we stopped at the outlets and I popped into Forever 21.  They were having a buy one sale item get one free so I picked up two things.  This super soft emerald velvet hoodie is gorgeous!!  It was $9 but ended up being $3.50.  This one is perfect for the holidays but also just great for everyday, so cozy!

I also picked up this really classic varsity sweatshirt dress that is so cozy and comfy.  Perfect with sneakers for an easy, comfy look. 

OK so I didn't really buy these...my sister gave them to me while in NC but I just wanted to share my Rae Dunn mugs.

I had a Nordstrom note that was expiring so I stopped in Nordstrom Rack to see if I could find any deals.  I stumbled on this Dogeared necklace on clearance for $8.74 and couldn't say no.

So cute and boho!  I also love the almost two tone look of the metal.

Such a great deal as these are normally over $50, with my note I paid less than $5!!

That's all I've picked up lately, let me know your favorite recent purchase!

What I Bought Recently (Poshmark, Dollar Tree and Aeropostale)

Fall is calling my name and I am so ready for it.  I love fall fashion, the textures the layers give me all of it!  I have been looking for some new pieces for my fall wardrobe and also just shopping the sales (you know me).  Here are a few things I have picked up recently:

I have been wanting a fringe jacket for a while now and this one is perfect for fall.  It is subtle western chic and I can't wait to style it.  I picked this one up off of poshmark for around $12.

If you aren't checking out Dollar Tree's books you need to go look the next time you are in the store.  I have found such great BRAND NEW books that are actually good.  I get books for gifts there a lot and also just pick some up for myself.  New books for $1 you really can't beat it.  I picked up these three books last time I was in the store, pretty good picks.

I haven't shopped Aeropostale in years but they sent an email and for some reason I decided to jump on and see what they had.  I actually placed an order and found a few things I love.  It is hard to tell from this picture but this sweatshirt has little lightening bolts, clouds and stars all over it.  It is the prettiest lavender mauve and so crazy soft.  I know I will be living in this for fall and winter.  This one was less than $10!

I also picked up these two striped peplum tanks.  I have been loving tanks lately for layering under a cardigan, jacket or kimono and these are so cute and flirty.  They were less than $5.  These are still available and you can get them here.

Have you found any good deals lately?

Things I Bought Recently (Zulilly, Walmart, Target, DSW, and more!)

I am always on the search for a good deal and I have found some gems.  Here are some things I have picked up recently and things I am obsessed with!

I have been on the search for a good pair of snake slip on sneakers for so long and these are perfect!!  I found them on Zulily for less than $15 and y'all the quality is awesome!

I think I have talked about this before but I am obsessed with this pink tumbler!!  If you haven't jumped on the Ozark Trail wagon yet you definitely need to, they are amazing!

The normal tumblers come with a lid but it doesn't have a closure, Walmart now has extra lids you can get that have a closure.  Makes these cups even better.  I think they were around $3.

Ok so this guy wasn't on a deal or anything and it is definitely a splurge.  I have been wanting a robo vaccuum for a while now and I had the the opportunity to test a BobSweep.  We got the PetHair Plus version and have been super happy with him.  It takes some figuring out on how to set him up and make sure everything is situated but I haven't had the actually run the vacuum over the whole house since we got him.  I still run it over places that are hard for him to get to or rooms that I block off because I'm afraid he will get lost but we love Bob.  Yes we call him Bob and we talk to him like a person sometimes.  If you are looking for a robo vaccuum BobSweep is one to check out.  Also customer service is awesome.

You may have seen these on my instagram but I picked these up at the Banana Republic Outlets on a trip with my husband for less than $10.  They are so chic and I love the oversized fit.

I love the classic look of Adidas shoes and also I love how wearing comfy shoes is on trend.  I picked up this gray pair from DSW for less than $20 and I'm obsessed with them!  They are super comfy and look really chic.  They have so many colors!

Things I Bought Recently: Shopping Haul (too many shoes and a movie)

I've been shopping again...I think I get spring shopping fever.  Is that a thing?  It has to be a thing.

Check out what I got and let me know what you guys have been buying lately.  

"The noblest art is that of making others happy" - P.T. Barnum 

If you have been following me here you knew this was going to happen.  I am obsessed with this movie, absolutely fell in love with the acting, music and the cinematography is beautiful.  I got mine at Target and there was a $5 gift card offer, not that I needed a bribe to buy this one.

I have been eyeing snake skin booties for a long time and found these on amazon.  They are so comfy and so fun!  I love the texture and detail they add to an outfit.

These shoes are a little out of my comfort zone but I love the leopard.  I went to the Atlanta Market a couple of weeks ago and the lady at the Naughty Monkey booth had these on and she looked so chic.  I found them on DSW and combined a sale they were having with my DSW reward and a gift card.  I ended up paying less than $10 for these beauties.  They are super comfy and I'm hoping I rock them half as well as that stylish lady. ;)
