April 27th, 2012 - Make Up Necessities...

Every girl has certain go-to beauty products that are essential for daily use; this is one of mine. I don't like to wear too much make up and so it took me some time to find a powder that gave a natural look with coverage and didn't feel heavy on my face. This Minirelize Skinfinish powder by MAC does exactly that with a soft sheer finish. You can buy MAC products at any Macy's or Nordstrom or at the MAC store. They rarely have promotions on cosmetics so the powder can be a little costly at $31, but for me this item is worth it and it does last a very long time. Happy Shopping! <3

April 26th 2012 - Pretty in Pink...

Cardigans can be so versatile and I don't think you can never have too many, especially since there are so many styles and colors!  I really liked this light pink one with a simple delicate lace detail, perfect over a cute top or dress for work. For me, this was another great Forever 21 find and you can't beat the price, only $15! Happy Shopping! <3

April 25th, 2012 - A Classic Wristlet...

This Michael Kors classic wallet / wristlet is a timeless leather piece that will be in style for many years. It is the perfect size to keep your ID and cards organized and hold your phone, key and lip gloss, ideal for nights out. Michael Kors items are known for their good quality and craftsmanship and I was lucky to find this one at Macy's during their 25% off Friends and Family Event which is offering discounts on all products including most designer bags like this one (only until Sunday 4/29). Happy Shopping! <3

April 24th, 2012 - A Little Vintage...

Vintage keys can be an interesting decorative touch to add character and charm to your home. I found this small one at Goldie Grove in Coconut Grove for only $12, among other sizes and styles. This is only one of many unique items available with affordable prices at Goldie Grove, 3092 Fuller Street in Coconut Grove or find Goldie on FB! Happy Shopping! <3

April 23rd, 2012 - Color Blocking!

One of the biggest trends of this spring/summer season is color blocking which makes for fun outfits combining bold complimentary colors. I really liked the look of this simple color blocked Guess shirt, with black button detail in the back, at Macy's because it has the pop of color without being over the top. And paired with black pants or skinny jeans, will be a great look for work or dinner out. *Note: starting today through this Sunday at Macy's is the friends and family event where you can save an extra 25% off, including designer items, with your Macy's card. Happy Shopping! <3

April 22nd, 2012 - More Colors!

I looove nail polish and I like to change it often! That's why I was so happy to find this fun Resort Collection by Essie that offers four different glam shades in small sizes including Pink-a-Boo, She's Picture Perfect, Sure Shot, and No More Film. This collection is only $17.00 at Ulta Beauty. This way you get the variety without having to buy the large individual bottles that are more expensive and you may not want to wear next season.  And remember, if you subscribe to the Ulta rewards program you'll receive weekly promotions, including $3.50 off purchase of $10.00 or more, like I did. Happy Shopping! <3

April 21st, 2012 - Colored bracelets...

Colors are definitely in for Sring and Summer and a great way to incorporate and dress up any outfit is through fun accesories. I went to Alexa Koi, a cute little accessories shop in Dolphin Mall, and found tons of cute things including bracelets like these in all sorts of styles and colors. And for less than $6 each, they are perfect for combining for pulling together your favorite Summer looks. Happy Shopping! <3

April 20th, 2012 - Little black dress...

Every girl needs a cute little black dress...or two. I absolutely love this cute and simple black dress I found at Forever 21 for only $15.00! It fits well and can be easily dressed up with great accessories. And if you already have a little black dress, this same style is also available in light pink and coral. Happy shopping! <3

April 19th, 2012 - A little sparkle...

A great place to find nice accessories, like these earrings, is Macy's. They have a great selection of designers and very good sales. In addition, if you have a Macy's account you will receive coupons every month including 20% off all items for one day and $10 or $20 off your purchase. Often some can be combined, leading to great savings! Happy shopping! <3

April 18th 2012 - Finishing touches from style.ly...

This adorable hair pin was waiting for me when I got home today. It is handmade from the "Olivia's Closet" coterie on style.ly. This is my second purchase from this particular seller on the site and and both have been great experiences. Al l items are reasonable priced, shipping is free and you can use the style points you accumulate on the site towards every purchase.

April 17th 2012 - Ooh snakeskin...

I love these shoes! I was very happy to find them as my previous pair of snakeskin pumps that i wore like crazy were ruined. These were a great Nordstrom.com find: under $100, delivered to my house with Free Shipping and a 3% cash back rebate for using ebates.com. I also find Enzo Angiolini shoes to be pretty comfortable as far as high heeled pumps go. Happy Shopping! <3

April 16th, 2012 - Scents for the home that really last!

I love opening the door to my apt. and finding a really nice, fresh smell but most air freshners or plug-ins I had tried didn't last very long. That's why I was sold when introduced to the wall flowers from Bath and Body Works. There is a great variety of adorable plug-ins to choose from and each refill will scent your home for approximately one month! Plus you can get any of your favorite Bath and Body Works scents including Japaness Cherry Blossom, Sensual Amber, etc. Right now, choose from all wall flowers and refills for only: 4 for $20 or 6 for $24 both in store and online. Not to mention all the other special offers currently available at Bath and Body Works, including 3-wick candles: 2 for $20! Happy Shopping! <3

April 15th, 2012 - Bows, bows, bows....

I saw so many cute things on Friday at Forever 21 that a return trip was in order. Yesterday, I found this adorable sheer blouse, covered in tiny black bows which I paired with a black cami underneath. Looks cute for work and the best part is both items were less than $20! Plus for me, bows are always a yes! Happy Shopping! <3

April 14th, 2012 - Must haves for your nails...

Yesterday, I went to Ulta Beauty for a new nail color and found this awesome sparkly gunmetal Essie shade called "Over the Top." I also needed a new bottle of my "Seche Vite" top coat which is the absolute best quick dry polish I have ever used. My manicurist introduced me to it a few years ago and I always make sure to have a bottle at home for when I do my nails myself. Not only do your nails really dry after 5 minutes but the polish will also last longer. If you subscribe to the Ulta rewards program, they will send you varied coupons approximately every two weeks including 20% off your entire purchase which I received this week. Happy shopping! <3

April 13th, 2012 - Pop of color!

There are so many brightly colored items to choose from this season. During a quick afterwork trip to Forever 21 yesterday I picked up this adorable shirt for less than $20! I really like the burnt orange color and the lace detail....planning to pair it with linen pants for a great daytime outfit. Happy Shopping! <3

April 12th 2012 - Little treasures at Goldie Grove...

Last night I attended the opening of an adorable boutique in Coconut Grove, Goldie Grove on Fuller Street. They have clothes, shoes, accesories and the most adorable and interesting accesories for the house. This is a place where you will truly find items you don't see everywhere and the prices are reasonable. I went home with this bracelet and I can't wait to go back and get something else! You can find them on Facebook: Goldie Grove. Happy Shopping! <3

April 11th, 2012 - Charles David = Love

I've had my eye on these for a few weeks now and yesterday I decided I just had to have them. As far as classic pumps go, I have tried many brands and I find Charles David to not only be absolutely fabulous but also the most comfortable and still reasonably priced. Over the years, I have continuously replaced my black Charles David pumps when necessary as they are essential to my wardrobe, and now I'm super excited about this new red patent leather pair I found at Nordstrom! Happy Shopping! <3

April 10th, 2012 - Great piece for small space...

I have been looking for a narrow shelving unit / TV stand for a very tight space that also needed to be functional and sturdy enough for the weight of the TV. After much searching, I found this piece on Target.com. It has received good reviews and has exactly the dimensions I need, for only $80! I started my online Target purchase through ebates.com which is currently offering 6% cash back from this store plus using my Target card means an additional 5% off upon purchase and Free Shipping. This is the image from Target, mine is on the way! Happy Shopping! <3

April 9th 2012, Palazzo Pants

These are great Palazzo pants from Nordstrom. The material is really soft and the look is flattering. I wasn't sure about the return of palazzo's and if I'd like them on myself but after seeing these in the Nordstrom catalogue, I decided to try them. They just arrived yesterday, I got them through Nordstrom.com and because I started my purchase through the ebates.com website, I received 3% cash back on my purchase. Happy Shopping! <3

April 8th, 2012, Long Dress Love....

I love long dresses! I think they are a great option in the summer and paired with cute sandals and a nice bag, you'll have a trendy and comfortable day outfit in no time. I found this dress today at Forever 21 for less than $20! For those of us who like to change up our closets pretty often, you can't beat the prices at Forever 21 and Forever21.com. Happy Shopping! <3

April 7th 2012, A Gift for Your Hair...

I'm very excited about this purchase! I have tried countless hair products that have been alright, but after sampling the Moroccan Oil products a couple of times, I really noticed a difference. My hair was extremely soft, even after the daily flat iron damage. This line of products is a little pricey but after some internet research, I found the best offer was at Amazon.com. I chose the styling creme which just arrived yesterday and I can't wait to use it! Happy Shopping! <3 

April 6th 2012, Fun Shoes for Spring!

One of the best parts of Spring and Summer for me is all the great color items you can find, especially this season that bright colors are everywhere! These very cute and comfortable espadrilles are from Nordstrom and are perfect shoes to wear on the weekend when you need something a little cuter than flats. They come in several colors; I went for the light orange and can't wait to wear them already! Happy Shopping! <3

April 5th, 2012 - A little something for the apartment...

I've always thought chandeliers are fabulous! Unfortunately, not every home is built for one as is the case with my small apartment. That's why I was so excited to find this fabulous 16 X 20 Chandelier Canvas at Target.com. It was a great deal, and offers the glam look of a chandelier with a modern twist. I just got it and put it up yesterday! Target.com service doesn't disappoint. And if you apply for the Target red card (credit or debit) you get 5% back on every purchase plus free shipping always! Happy shopping! <3
