Second to the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale, the half-yearly is the happiest time of the year! This is the magical time of year when the bigwigs decide to take pity on us shoppers and slash their prices up to 75% off! The sale can be overwhelming so I dug through an obscene amount of pages (#ineedalife) and put together a few top picks separated into categories.

When I started this blog (a little over a year ago) my intention was to well…blog. Over the past year, I’ve been focusing so much on my Facebook page that I’ve been neglecting my own little space on the interwebs. One of my goals this year has been to blog more but, it’s now April and I’ve epically failed. So, today I’m going to write a little life update and see how that goes!

lineTHE GOOD

Let’s start with the good! I have an upcoming trip planned to Atlantic City this weekend and I could not be more excited! We stay at the Resorts casino and I swear they have the BEST burger place there! I’m literally salivating as I write that. I’m planning on hitting up the casinos and said burger joint in the outfit below:

lineMORE GOOD

I was recently sitting at a restaurant bar and noticed Kevin from last season’s Big Brother walk by. I immediately left my boyfriend at the bar and my bar seat spinning! I went out the door and ran after him down the street. To say I’m a fan of Big Brother would be an understatement. I’ve been watching since day one and can honestly say I haven’t missed an episode. Luckily, Kevin was extremely nice and didn’t even wanna call the cops after telling him I just chased him down the street.

lineTHE GOOD/BAD

If you’ve been following me on Facebook, you may have seen that my sweet kitty, Myles, recently passed away. He was diagnosed with a diseased called FIP and the decline was swift. I had never heard of this awful disease before and have been trying to educate myself as much as possible. He was my best little buddy and to see him suffer like that was almost unbearable.

It’s been almost three weeks now and my heart still hurts. I miss him every.single.day. You may be wondering why I put this under the “good/bad” category, huh? But, I figure the “good” in all this is that we are currently trying to adopt another cat that doesn’t currently have a home. I’ve been struggling on whether to get another cat because I know there will NEVER be a way to replace Myles. However, I’ve realized that there’s so many cats out there that don’t have homes and just because I love another one doesn’t mean I’m replacing Myles by any means.

lineTHE BAD

I’ve had a raging sinus infection for about a week now (see a picture of my swollen face in the picture right above.) It feels like a piano is permanently attached to my forehead. Seriously, how long does it take for these stupid things to go away??

Well, that’s it for now! Hopefully I can hold myself accountable to this blogging thing and be back with another post soon!

Create Your Own Stitch Fix For Less
Snap your fingers and it’s October! Although the weather has been much like a girl trying to decide where to go for dinner (i.e. completely indecisive,) it’s finally cooling down a bit making me excited for all things fall fashion!  As you may know, I love Stitch Fix but feel their pricing can be more affordable. So, each month I find 5 items to create a “fix” with all Stitch Fix brands at lower prices. If you’ve missed my previous “create your own stitch fix” posts, you can read the latest one here. You can also check out my latest stitch fix review here.

Without further ado, here’s what I created this month. For this first “fix”, pair the Kut from the Kloth jeans with either the Bobeau peplum top or the Kut from the Kloth gray sweater and pair them with the Lucky Brand necklace and booties!

Stitch Fix for less
Bobeau Peplum Top – $28.97
Lucky Brand Booties – $51.58
Kut from the Kloth Jeans – $39.97
Kut from the Kloth Gray Top – $24.99
Lucky Brand Necklace – $12.97
TOTAL: $158.48

line

For the second “fix”, I focused around a black and gray theme which will transition very easily into the winter months. Pair the Kensie sweater with the gray Kut from the Kloth Jeans, throw on the Nine West booties, Gorjana necklace, grab the Urban Expresions clutch and you’re out the door!

Stitch Fix For Less

Kut from the Kloth Skinny Jeans ($39.97)
RD Style Sweater ($29.99)
Urban Expressions Clutch ($29.99)
Gorjana Necklace ($19.97)
Nine West Booties ($37.99)

Do you ever browse around pinterest and think to yourself “gee, that outfit looks great, where do I get it?” The problem with pinterest is that most pictures are only for inspiration and you have to search around for all the pieces yourself. Well, consider yourself lucky because I have taken some popular images found on pinterest and done the work of finding similar pieces for you. Oh, and did I mention they’re all super affordable??
