Seriously you guys, How cute is this ring set from Madewell?

I happened to stumble upon it while shopping at the Madewell store yesterday. I have been obsessed with Madewell’s jewelry for some time now. I love the finish of their gold rings and bracelets-It’s like a brushed, antique gold tone. It seems to compliment all of my other jewelry and definitely looks expensive. The great news, is that Madewell rings are affordable! The even better news is that this particular stack is on sale now for an additional 30% off!  original price$28, on sale for $20 online. If you shop in store, you can take an additional 30%off  and that brings these cuties down to $14!!!!!!  Come on….. let’s be ring twins!

Aspen Trip!

11 Jan

Happy Monday everyone! I got such an overwhelming response to my Aspen pictures that I’m going to share some more here. It was the first trip to Aspen for my wife and I but definitely not our last. I feel like the way we planned it was perfect. We landed in Denver and rented a car and drove to Aspen, which is one of the most beautiful stretches of snow capped mountains I’ve ever seen. The drive took 3.5 hours but flew by as we got lost in all the scenery. Once we arrived in Aspen we stayed 4 days which is a nice amount of time to see the sights and partake in activities. I really loved ice skating but the ultimate bucket list check off was snowmobiling deep into the Aspen mountains for hours. We even saw moose!!!!! As usual, we ate our way through the town- Aspen is known for their strong culinary game and  were not let down once. Everything we ate was amazing! And as far as scenery goes, everywhere we looked was straight off of a post card. It was breathtaking to say the least.

I keep getting asked “Is aspen expensive?” Expensive would be an understatement! It is off the charts crazy expensive from the hotels, to activities, to shopping, to dining. When places are this astronomical in price, a once in a lifetime visit will usually suffice, but there was something so magical about Aspen that I will go back and overspend, because frankly, it was worth it! I suggest everybody visit this gem during the winter months!

Fall Nail Color Favorites!

21 Nov

I love beautiful rich dark shades for fall and winter and thought I’d share my favorites colors with you.  They are both by Essie, but most polish companies make these shades or similar shades. I do favor Essie when it comes to darker shades because their formulas are super thick and don’t streak.

Stylenomics is a deep green shade.

Carry On is a dark deep burgundy wine shade.

Must Have: Mini Crossbody Bags!

Mini cross body bags are a must have in every handbag collection. They are hands free and just the right size to hold your essentials. Mini bags are perfect for everything from running errands to a night out dancing, these versatile bags are truly day to-night! With so many designers making mini versions of their top-selling bags, it can be a daunting task trying to choose the right bag for you. Hopefully I can help you with that decision. Below are some of my favorite cross body cuties.

Must Have Bracelet!

5 Jan

I have been wearing my hinged glider bracelets for a couple of years now. I purchased the rose gold toned one from H&M and the gold tone one from Nordstrom.

Sadly, they have both since sold out but I still get plenty of questions about them and I’ve come across some very similar versions by Madewell that are affordable.

 

Wear these bracelets alone or stacked!
