My Latest Mini Haul :)

Hi lovelies long time no talk! I hope you had a great weekend! I certainly did :) I meant to post about my haul saturday night but I passed out as soon as I got in my bed so I'm just now posting it I know I'm so lazy! Anyways I didnt get much hence the mini haul but I did find some pretty good deals :)

 

If you live around or are familiar with the Eastern Shore shopping center, they have this really cute store that I could literally live in I love it so much lol. Its called Objects and they sell everything from candles to coffee but the one thing I love about this store is its huge selection of Vera Bradley products! I love Vera Bradley but her prices are just a little to high for me so I've never owned anything by her but I was able to find a few things on sale. I was so surprised to see some of her stuff half off but I found out every once in a while Vera will discontinue a pattern causing it to go on sale, lucky us! Getting to the point, I found this jewelry folio in Pricilla Pink which was a regular $48 got it for $24! so awesome! :)



Obsessed with these sandals I found at Ross only $12.99 I'm not familiar with the brand, Nicole but if the shoe is cute it doesnt matter to me who makes them! 



I also found these at Ross for $12.99 and theyre by Sbicca of California which is a really nice quality but I just love how comfy they are lol



I found this at Charming Charlies it was on sale for $5 so pretty much a steal plus I really needed a new wallet and it even has a place to put my phone :))



Got this super cute maxi at Ross as well for only $10! I love how long and fitting it is thats hard for me to find in a maxi lol


                           
last thing, this super cute dress for my baby Minnie Ross $5


So like I said small but really good deals and you definitely need to check out Objects if you love Vera Bradley the sale is pretty good, all kinds of patterns and choices ranging from lap top cases to stationary half off, cant beat that! Thanks for reading I hope you enjoyed my short shopping haul and if you have any questions comments or concerns don't be afraid to leave them below and dont forget to check back for my post on preparing for my trip to Disney World i'll be posting it sometime this week. Well wishing you guys a wonderful week blog you later! XOXO Em

I'm backkk guyss :)

Hey blogger beauties! Miss me?! ;) First off let me just say I have missed blogging so much! I recently got a job at a tanning salon called Club Sun and I have literally been working non stop since the day I got hired. My job requires me to be on my feet from 4-9 hours pretty much everyday cleaning beds and spray tan booths so when I get home I'm too exhausted to watch tv let alone start a post but hey I am BEYOND happy and thankful to have it plus it comes with some pretty great perks! So I think the last time I posted was a month ago.. huh?! I can't believe that! I'm definitely going to try to post more frequently this summer because I plan to vaca, beach it up and go out as much as possible oh and lets not forget shop until I drop so I will have lots to share with you guys :)

My Getaway to The Beau Rivage :)

Hey everyone! I hope your weekend was as great as mine! My parents, my bestie Adrian and I stayed all weekend at the beautiful Beau Rivage Hotel and Casino in Biloxi Mississippi. If you've never heard of it or have and just have never been, I did a post on it awhile back during Christmas time that you can read about here but its pretty much the top casino in Biloxi at least in my opinion. The food is great, the hotel is beautiful the spa is amazing and the casino drinks are so delicious! I get so excited when my parents receive free rooms there because I love absolutely everything about the place and I know its going to be a great time no matter what! Any ways I wanted to share some pictures I took during my getaway :) 


At the Beau Rivage buffet devouring yummy crab legs and enjoying our much needed girl/relax time :)



Our first night there, and her first time in the casino :) Blazer from Charlotte Russe, dress from Forever 21, heels from Polish, necklace from Charlotte Russe, clutch from Ross



Second night heading to the Imperial Palace for dinner drinks and gambling :) Blazer from Charlotte Russe, leggings by Juicy Couture, heels and earrings from Charlotte Russe, Michael Kors watch, and clutch from Ross









In the IP casino playing on the Sex and The City machine, my fave!!


By the way, my really nice DSLR camera is still broken so I had no choice but to use an iPhone to take all these pictures so I apologize for the low quality, fuzziness I had no other option :( But any ways it was a great weekend lots of fun and very needed I was dying to get away from home for a couple days and I ended up winning a $100 on the Sex and the City machine so thats awesome, I probably won't spend it unless I need it for an emergency though lol Well thank you so much for reading my blog and showing support its much appreciated! Wishing you guys a wonderful week blog you later!<3

Way's to Transition your Wardrobe from Winter into Spring :)



Hey guys! I hope you had a great weekend! Well, its that time of the year again when the snow starts to melt (if we're lucky) the sun seems to get brighter, the temperature transitions from cold to enjoyable and my craving for bright colors and lighter layers becomes unbearable telling me that spring is right around the corner. Heres how I plan to transition my current wardrobe into spring :)




winter into spring 

Max out your Maxi Dresses: One piece that I will be using quite a bit is actually a summer piece, a  maxi dress. I love maxi dresses they're cute comfy and easy to make a complete outfit with. But to give it a spring vibe instead of summer,  I'm going to pair it under a crew neck sweater, add a belt, some simple jewelry and BAM! I  have a chic spring outfit without having to buy new pieces :)





winter to spring
Bring on the Blazers! The thing that gets a little difficult with spring is the how unpredictable the temperature can be. Its too hot for a coat but not exactly warm enough for a sundress and thats were blazers come into play! I am definitely addicted to blazers. I have one in almost every color and some in the same color just different styles because they give you instant class and they can be paired with pretty much anything, skinny jeans, dresses, leggings you name it!



winter to spring

Lets get Floral! What's more symbolic of spring than floral prints?! um they pretty much take the cake! lol So I will definitely be incorporating pretty floral patterns into my wardrobe and I highly doubt i'll be the only one I think almost everyone loves florals they're so feminine and pretty and again very flexible with other pieces whether it presents as the staple piece in your outfit or just a hint, floral is flirty and fun!





neons

Neutral meets Neon! I have to say I was never a fan of neons before last year but now I absolutely love them!  I know neon is the universal color of summer but its also great for jazzing up those boring neutrals we tend to exhaust during winter. I am in lovee with hot pink and navy together soo cute!!






booties


Break out those Cut out Booties! You know those cute booties with cut outs on the side or the ones that have a peep toe? That seems to be the only kind I buy these days lol. Any ways they didn't really make sense to me for winter weather but they happen to be perfect for transitioning into spring! 




ombre

Lighten those Locks! One thing I love doing after winter is lightening my hair because I love to keep it dark during the holidays and light during spring and summer months. I usually get carmel or blonde highlights but this year I went straight for the ombre and can I just say.. OBSESSED! I'm not suggesting everyone go ombre but definitely give your tresses a new look, layer them, lighten them, shorten them, blow dry them straight, add a cute set of bangs, or simply get a trim to freshen them up. Your hair deserves a transition too!



Here's my ombre so far, not finished because we ran out of bleach but omg so in love with it so far! 




Well, those are the tips and ideas that I'll be using to transition into spring! I hope you found my suggestions/ideas helpful and feel free to share your opinions or ideas on this as well. By the way I promise to do reviews on the beauty products I got for Christmas as soon as my face heals, I have been struggling with my cystic acne lately so I haven't been able to do one yet but they're coming soon, promise! Thanks so much for reading and supporting, also Hello and thank you to my first three followers, it means a lot to me that you follow my blog!  I hope you all have a wonderful weekend, blog you later! :) XOXO Em
