Fall Under $40

Regardless of this Indian Summer thing going on, fall is quickly approaching and that means it’s time to get out the chunky sweaters, scarves, fall booties, cutout jeans, and cute accessories.  One thing I learned from my mom is finding good deals.  Instead of you spending the next several weeks trying to find the best deals, I did all of that for you and brought the deals to you all in one post.  Your husbands can thank me later. 😉

Every item below is UNDER $40. I have made it even easier for you and categorized the items.  I have bought items from all of these online stores and here is the rundown on their sizes: Continue reading “Fall Under $40” →

The BaubleBar Sale

I have quickly become a BaubleBar fan in the past few months and I totally give that credit to all of the bloggers that I follow.  What I love about their jewelry is that they come in affordable prices and don’t sacrifice the quality.  They will have a sale from time to time and right now ALL OF THEIR ITEMS are 25% with code: BIGONE ( except BB Essentials and Sale).  The sale ends TONIGHT (September 27th)  I have linked all of my favorite BaubleBar Pieces below.  You also can also get the “Play By Ear” deal  where you can mix and match your favorite pairs of earrings for $48 (valued at $94).  I would highly recommend signing up for their free vault rewards program where you can earn points on your purchase.

There is no other item that screams fall like a good old button up plaid top.  I love how you can wear them in many ways and match then with different patterns.  I recently got this plaid top from a new local boutique called Six Hearts Boutique.  I loved the color combo of this top and the fabric is super soft.  I have linked my favorite plaid tops for this fall below.

6 Minute Core Sculpting Workout

6 Minute Core Sculpting Workout

Are you the person who exercises regularly but can’t get a trim waistline? I may have be able to help you with that.

I typically do three 30-40 minutes of cardio focused workouts each week.  Cardio is great, but it will not tone or sculpt your muscle.  I have already shown you in my 15 Minute  HIIT workout how I tone and sculpt my body, but that workout is only meant to be done 1-3 times per week.  What can I do the other days so I do not neglect my core muscles?  It is simple, add-on a 5 minute core workout at the end of your workouts.  Continue reading “6 Minute Core Sculpting Workout” →

A Shirt with a Purpose

A Shirt with a Purpose

All I have to say are these three words and you already know who I am talking about – shiplap, DEMO day, and magnolia.  If you don’t know, you haven’t lived – JUST KIDDING, but not really.    Most of you know that I am a HUGE Joanna Gaines fan.  I have bee to Magnolia in Waco, TX a couple times and I am a HUGE Johnny Swim fan. Joanna and Chip Gaines from Fixer Upper have taken over many different types of markets.  I just heard the news a few days ago that they now have partnered with Target on their own decor line called Heath & Hand – as if they couldn’t get any better! They are a couple that truly brings joy to me and makes TV actually good to watch.  I want to give the light that they bring to me and be that light to others.

One of the most recent things they have done in response to Hurricane Harvey is by giving ALL PROCEEDS from this Texas Forever tee until September 30th.  The day I saw this announcement I wanted to be a part of this.  You can get your too by ordering yours today.

Olive Green Duster Jacket

Olive Green Duster Jacket

I have had a major obsession with jackets this past month and I don’t think it is going to get any better coming into the fall season.  The olive green duster I am wearing above is a steal from one of my favorite online stores, BOOHOO.com.  I had to size up to a 6.  I like how it is a lighter material so I can layer it with another jacket as the temperature gets colder.  They have plenty more duster options HERE. All of their items right now are 50% off and most items with the discount are under $30.   Continue reading “Olive Green Duster Jacket” →

Smile Sciences Teeth Whitening Kit

I have always been an avid flosser and teeth brusher.  However, I still would get those darn yellow spots. — Probably because it’s the three cups of coffee I drink in the morning and the large amounts of sugar I consume at night.  (#noregrets) I have always wanted that crystal white smile, but I didn’t want to pay all the expensive fees and damage my enamel in the process.  Then that all changed.   Continue reading “Smile Sciences Teeth Whitening Kit” →
