Weekend Flats

/2 Comments/in , /by

I am not really a flats kinda gal but when I saw these while I was walking by I could not resist. They have a slight wedge and are not super low to the ground and are not super high.

I think they are the perfect weekend shoe for me to run errands in and still look chic.

My flats at home
They are called the Gessa Demi-Wedge. They come in black and taupe. 
I took them for a “test run” this weekend and they did not disappoint. I received lots of compliments too! I hope you can grab a pair.
Enjoy!!!

Lovely Christmas Accessories

/in , /by


Well it is after Black Friday and some of the good deals have vanished from the internet. Like this gorgeous necklace from Ann Taylor.


I was hoping to share it with everyone but it sold out the day mine shipped.  No fun…..

I did happen to pick up these pretty Christmas wreath inspired earrings from Ann Taylor. These are called the pearlized ribbon hoop earrings. Very chic! 




Here they are on the model and I got a lot of compliments on them. They are great for this holiday season. 


Other wonderful Christmas clothing items that I have found are….

This great skirt is from New York and Company. It is called the Mari Tie-Waist Skirt from the Eva Mendes collection. I also bought it in the maxi version, see here. I purchased it in black and pink. Love them both!!
Here it is in the pink maxi version. I wore it to a wedding this weekend. Just lovely…



The shoes are from Payless. I could not resist getting them. They are so comfortable. I know Payless is cheap but I have gotten great shoes from there. I purchased these in black and silver.

I hope these pieces help and inspire you to look your best this holiday season. Remember #beeleganteveryday!

The Organized Wallet ~ Kate Spade Travel Wallet

/4 Comments/in , /by

Being that I love fashion and all things girly, I pay attention to how women dress and accessories. I was in Bed Bath and Beyond a few weekends ago and there was a very chic women in front of me.

She pulled out her wallet to pay for her items and I could not keep my eyes off her wallet! It was so chic to me and the size was just wonderful. I love big bags and wallets and I don’t know why.

I got a glimpse at the front of it and it was Kate Spade. So I came right home and googled it! I found it at my fav store Von Maur for $228 (see here) and I thought, “Well I just don’t want to pay that much for it so I went to my second source which is Ebay.

I love all the card space. Great right?
I found it on Ebay for $103! I was so happy! That sounded much better. There are some more on Ebay if you wish to take a peek….
I had this on my “watch list” but decided to go with the black.

I found this one here.
This one was also on my list. I still may go back and get it. I just love it!

If you decide to buy one move quickly. They don’t stay on Ebay long. Enjoy!!!

The New Chanel

/2 Comments/in , /by


Has anyone heard about the New Chanel No. 5? I didn’t until a few weeks ago. My family and I were in Macy’s because my husband wanted to pick up some new cologne and I looked over and spotted the New Chanel fragrance.

My two bottles at home. The original and the new.
 
 
 
 

The new fragrance is still very similar to the old. You can still smell the original notes in it. But this new scent has notes of lemon, mandarin, orange, rose, and jasmine. The scent is a little “lighter” compared to the original but just as lovely.

If you can you should stop by your local mall and take a whiff. I guarantee you will not be disappointed.
