Living Social Deal {Social Monograms Monogrammed Clutch}

I'm here today with yet another amazing, crazy Living Social deal.  

And yes, it's another monogrammed item.  #sorrynotsorry
I constantly see these monogrammed clutches on tumblr and I've been meaning to buy one but haven't gotten around to it.
But finally I saw this amazing deal and just couldn't pass it up.
I mean like how cute are they?

So lets get down to the deets.

For $24 (a $48 value) you get a leather monogrammed clutch and free shipping (if you're in the US)!

There are 8 days left to purchase this voucher and the voucher expires on July 25, 2013.

The hardest part about this deal is choosing the colors since there's a great variety of colors including red, yellow, sky blue, and coffee just to name a few.
I ended up choosing the hot pink clutch with a white treaded monogram.

I feel like these clutches are perfect for summer.  I don't know about you, but I hate lugging around a large, heavy tote in the summer.
These little cross body bags/clutches are perfect for spending the day at the market or with a cute dress for dinner near the beach.

What color clutch would you buy for Spring/Summer?

Sunday Snapshot [5.12.13]

I can't believe Sunday is over already.

The weekend always goes by way too fast.  I'm so not ready for Monday to roll around again.

I have so much going on at school this week, so I've spent the whole day trying to mentally prepare myself for that.  Other then that, I can't wait for Memorial Day Weekend to begin!  

[11 more days until that weekend just incase you were wondering!]

Here are some of my favorite pictures this week!

2013 Met Gala - definitely a highlight of the week!  It's my favorite red carpet to watch!

I had my last Saturday class at FIT yesterday.
I'm going to miss all the new friends I made and being in the city every weekend!

All I want is to go to a summer music festival where I can wear a floral headband.

Actually really needed to read this list this week.

Have a wonderful week!

Living Social Deal {NameJewelrySpot Monogrammed Necklace}

This post is especially for my preppy readers or anyone who likes a good monogram.

Living Social has THIS amazing, fabulous deal for a monogrammed necklace from NameJewelrySpot.

The necklace retails for $143, however with this voucher, you can get one for $40.

Yes you read that correctly.  Basically you are getting $100 off.  Crazy, I know.

I just placed my order  (I got the gold plated necklace with a 16" chain) and I might buy some as gifts for friends for upcoming birthdays [there is no amount limit on how many vouchers you can purchase!].

I can't express how excited I am for my necklace to come!  Monogrammed necklaces tend to be slightly expensive so I'm beyond psyched for this deal!

I have one that I bought from Bauble Bar last year and from excessive wear, the color has turned.  

So while I get that one re-dipped, I can't wait to wear this one!

Definitely check out this deal if you're into monograms and fun jewelry!

Sunday Snapshot {Happy Cinco de Mayo!}

Happy Cinco de Mayo!

...Or as many call it, Cinco de Drinko!

It's the perfect excuse to have some fruity drinks or ice cream with friends and sit outside to welcome in the spring weather.

Hopefully it's warm and sunny where you are, so you can fully enjoy the holiday.

I was in New York City last night and people were already getting into the spirit with sombreros and colorful drinks in hand.  So whatever you're doing today, make sure you set aside some time for a little treat.

Here's a few pictures to get you into the spirit!

How cute are these no bake Margarita Cheesecakes!?

Do you know how to make salsa?  If not check out this video!
Your friends will definitely be impressed when you tell them it's not from the jar.

Fruit salsa and cinnamon chips...sounds delicious!
Recipe here!

Colorful drinks like this watermelon margarita are essential!

However you're spending your Cinco de Mayo, I hope your Sunday is great!

Chic Eyewear

I've worn glasses since kindergarden.
With that said, I've probably had every style of glasses there is.
From pink, to frameless, to thick square frames to glasses with baseballs on them (from when I went through my 'it's cool to dress like a boy' phase...).
I think it's so important to find a frame that fits your face and that you like.
With the amount of studying and school work I've had, I have been wearing my glasses so much more.
So now I'm looking for a new pair that I can keep in my school bag so I never forget them!

Shop!

{1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}

These are just a few that I found that I liked!  Who knew there were so many styles and colors?

Glasses aren't just for the 'nerdy student' anymore.  There are countless designers like Diane von Furstenberg, Burberry, and Prada who make their own chic versions.

Which style do you like best?

Spring Shoes

I can't wait to put away my boots and start wearing shoes that show off my pedicure!

In New Jersey, it's warm one day, then cold the next.

I always find the Spring time the trickiest for deciding on the right time to rotate out all the bulky sweaters and in place hang up sundresses and shorts.

There have been so many different shoe trends for Spring this year.  

Being on a budget, it's impossible to try them all.

So I've comprised a little shopping guide of shoe tends below for easy access to this Springs hottest shoe styles.

For me, I'll definitely be picking out some printed and metallic shoes!

Which trend is your favorite?

Sneaker Wedge - While this shoe is not for everyone, they are definitely everywhere right now!  I'm not sure that I'm adventurous enough to try out this trend, but if I did try them out, I'd probably pair them with a skinny jean, white tee, and maybe a light utility jacket for an effortless, sporty look.

Boat Shoes - It might it just be because I'm a huge Sperry lover, but it seems that Sperrys have invaded every big department store now.  From Nordstrom to Bloomingdales, these have become extremely trendy.

1, 2, 3

Printed - Forget those plain sandals or wedges you have.  Why not try something a little more fun?  These shoes will make a statement with whatever outfit you wear.

1, 2, 3

Neon - There is nothing neutral about these hues.  The brighter, the better.  These are perfect for adding that pop of color you want for your spring outfit.

1, 2, 3

Embellished - Whether they be studded or spiked, embellished shoes add the perfect amount of edge to any outfit.

1, 2, 3

Metallic - One tip I like to use when styling metallics is to treat them like neutrals!  They go with pretty much anything.

Spring Ahead {Spring 2013 Shopping List}

With a mini snowstorm Friday and 50 degree weekend weather, mother nature seems confused.

March is usually the month where the temperature rises, the sun shines, and birds chirp.

All I can dream about right now is Spring break and warmer weather.

I'm so tired of wearing sweaters and boots. (Never thought I would say that!)

I just want to wear light tops and sandals that show off my pedicure!

While I can't control the weather, I can dream...and shop!

Here are a few items on my shopping list!

Shop!

Tunic, Hat, Sweater, Lip Gloss, Nail Polish, Shorts, Swimsuit, Wedges

What's on your spring shopping list?
