If y'all have read here for any amount of time, or you know me IRL, then you know backpacks are my jam. And that I wear them constantly. Because it's clearly so fashion-y to wear the same bag every day, with no regard for whether it matches or compliments my outfit at all.
What?
Read MoreIt's Friday, and on Friday, WE FAVORITE. (Except really it's Saturday, and I MAY have gotten up too early to watch the Royal Wedding. And I MAY be wondering if I can trick Bo into thinking it's quiet time already.)
(And now it's actually Monday, because PROCRASTINATION.)
Read MoreRemember how, in college, you used to wear things that are basically horrifying when you see them now in pictures?
(Also, thank you Jesus that I have to actually locate printed photos, and there's no record of that ISh on Facebook. Because I'm a fossil. #itsfine)
Read MoreI know y'all think #bloggerlife is oh so fancy, but let me speak a little bit of truth: I really hate dressing up. I may or may not pray to Jesus daily for old ratty sweatpants with worn out waistbands to become SUPER FETCH.
If I am in my house for more than 2 minutes, I require an elastic waistband. And I have definitely been guilty of wearing sweats when it is absolutely NOT socially appropriate.
Read MoreI'm not gonna lie. Resolutions stress me out. And when I feel stressed, I basically "resolve" to put my pjs on at 4pm and binge watch the Crown.
(Except I can't, because my kids are divas and think it's "boring.")
(They also won't go to bed at 4pm so I can watch tv. Rude.)
Read MoreIt's that time of year, y'all. You know what I'm talking about. The one where all of our favorite retailers join together and go, "you know what we should do? Let's slash our prices like 40% on everything good, and make sure our customers are actually as Christmas poor as they could be."
And you know what? I'm here for it.
Read MoreIt's Friday favorites, guys. You know what's NOT my Friday favorite? When school closes early because of what is essentially a blizzard to us southerners, and then YOUR POWER IMMEDIATELY GOES OUT. But on the upside, I learned what my kids' Friday favorite is : complaining. And arguing. And complaining some more.
In what is obviously a healthy coping strategy (i.e. escapism), I decided to round up a list of things that have brightened my week, starting with this: everything at Anthropologie is 30% off! And we all know that snow = shopping weather = everything is free. Or something like that.
Let's take a peek at a couple of my other favorites, shall we?
Read MoreSOME PEOPLE like to refer to my boot collection as a "boot problem." (Those people are rude and shall not be tolerated. JOHN.)
It is also possible that this boot guide has already contributed to my little "issue."
Whoops.
Read MoreY'all know how we feel about a Nordstrom sale around here. (I feel super excited. John feels extreme fear.)
The fun thing about the sale is this: it's the holiday season. Which means Christmas shopping. Which means if I happen to accidentally on purpose buy myself a fun Christmas gift, well, AT LEAST IT WAS ON SALE.
Read MoreReally this post should be titled BUYING all the red. Because that is what I'm doing.
(Unless you are John, in which case I am not.)
Y'all. I am obsessed with the color red. And not just because I went to THE BEST school in the SEC (#godawgs), although it helps. If you want to update your wardrobe this fall, but without spending a zillion dollars to do, then incorporate some red.
