May 27th, 2012 - Decorative Birdcages...

I have had my eye on these bird cages from West Elm for a while and now they are on sale! I picked the smaller size which is perfect for my apartment. And since this weekend only, West Elm is offering an additional 15% of sale items for Memorial Day, it was less than $30! I love the idea of using birdcages as a decorative pieces, now I just need to figure out what I'd like to put inside mine. I'll be doing some online research for ideas...and of course, any suggestions are welcomed! Happy Shopping! <3

May 24th, 2012 - Important Basics...

I think every wardrobe needs certain basic pieces, including good quality neutral solid color shirts that can be easily pared with everything. I specifically needed a new grey top and found this cute one from the INC brand at Macy's which I really like for the style and material of their clothing. All the pieces have a classic look with good quality that I know I'll be able to use for a long time. And this weekend Macy's is offering great Memorial Day promotions, including additional 10% and 15% off items. Happy Shopping! <3

May 20th, 2012 - A New Favorite...

This was my favorite purchase at H&M. I love the style, color and material of this dress that was also under $40. For anyone looking for pretty summer dresses, this was only one of so many lovely and affordable dresses at H&M, that I'm very happy I had time for a return trip. Plus, I found this great little accessory that can be worn as a necklace or a belt and adds a little pop to the outfit. Happy Shopping! <3

May 19th, 2012 - A Little More NY Shopping...

I was fortunate to spend the rest of this past weekend in NY, doing much sightseeing with family and of course a little shopping every chance I had. These adorable bracelets are from Century 21 (left) and H&M (right). Both great places to find all types of cute accesories at amazing prices! Century 21 is a huge department store where you can get tons of designer items for reduced prices - a definite NY stop worth making in my book. Happy Shopping! <3

May 17th, 2012 - H&M!

Being a huge fan of H&M which we don't have in Miami, this is one of the first stops I wanted to make once in NY. I was very excited to find this lace top which is exactly the type I had been wanting this season, and for under $30! This was only one of so many great reasonable priced items at H&M, I can't wait to go back before I leave! Happy shopping! <3

May 12th, 2012 - A visit to The Dressing Room...

Last week, I was very lucky to win a gift certificate at the grand opening of the new Synergize BootCamp to The Dressing Room, a boutique in South Miami. I went this past Saturday for the first time and I'm so happy I've been introduced to this store! They have the cutest clothes and accessories, all at very affordable prices. I instantly went for the jewelry and left with these two necklaces that I love and know I will wear with many things. The Dressing Room has many trendy and unique items you don't see everywhere; I know I'll definitely be back soon for another visit. Happy shopping! <3

May 8th 2012 - Ready to Workout!

I'm very excited about this investment in a quality heart rate monitor by Suunto. Now that I have rejoined Synergize Boot Camp, it was time to purchase a new monitor that would really help me get the most out of every workout. After much online research for the best product / value, I decided to go for this very cute pink one on Amazon.com. Not only was it the most stylish one I found, but also has the main features I need and received positive reviews. Amazon.com which is a great resource for savings on all types of products with amazing customer service, had the best price on this item and many other similar versions. Happy Shopping! <3

May 7th, 2012 - Shamballa Collection at Macy's...

Shamballa bracelets are one of the latest trends and you've probably seen them in all kinds of variations in many stores. Now, Macy's is offering their own collection of Shamballa bracelets with pretty semi precious stones in many colors and what I like most is the nice quality of the bracelet which many variations in other stores do not have. This is the Grey agate stone and there are many more colors, all with individual messages! They are on sale this week and you can get the additional 20% incentive offer for Mother's Day. Happy Shopping! <3

I had been looking for a new duvet cover for some time now because I really wanted something that looked pretty and classic while being affordable.

I found this duvet cover with shams at Target, currently on sale for less than $70 for the set, plus 5% off and free shipping for using my Target account. Also, since I purchased online through ebates.com, I'll be receiving an additional 3% cash back on my purchase. I'm excited about the deal and can't wait until it gets here! Happy Shopping! <3

May 3rd 2012 - Great Daytime Bag!

I have shared several purchases from Macy's this past week because I truly felt their Friends and Family event was a great opportunity for savings on pieces that would not normally be on sale, like this Dooney and Bourke bag. I ordered this online during the sale (25% off plus free shipping) and just received it today and I LOVE it! This bag is not a carry all but it is a nice size to hold the day's essential things and has a fun sunflower yellow color that will compliment many outfits especially during the spring / summer seasons. This style also comes in other colors including purple, red and black. Happy Shopping! <3

April 28th, 2012 - Sneakers for Synergize!


As I was preparing to go back to the best bootcamp ever, I needed a pair of new sneakers and found these cute Nike ones for a great price at Macy's during all the weekend sales. I already wore them yesterday and they are very comfortable. This is my second pair of Nike sneakers from Macy's and if you can combine their regular store sales with the additional discounts mailed to card members, you are going to get a great price. Happy Shopping! <3
