Retail Therapy

How are ya'll? My shop is more or less closed right now with the occasional appointment. I miss my customers and I miss dressing up on a daily basis. I dress for myself, but usually with somewhere to go in mind. That said, with so many options for summer, I treated myself to some fancy frocks from Target. They are from the new LoveShackFancy and Lisa Marie Fernandez collections. So much pink..I'm totally obsessed. The pretty princess details of this first dress brought a smile to my face and the swishy layers of the second dress are wonderfully sweet. The last dress is sugar and spice and everything nice with polka dot details and a large sassy ruffle.

A Moment of Dreamy Designer Shoes

Neiman Marcus brings to mind wonderful, shoe-rrifc memories. I associate it with graduation and growing up. One day, pre-ceremony, my mom took me to this famous department store, full of designer goodies. It felt like a momentous occasion. I glimpsed the glamorous shoes that lay in each lovely corner. As a fan of fashion, it made me to happy to sit among the bright, high-end accessories. That day, we were on a fabulous mission. She wanted me to own Chanel flats, the kind that go with everything. We left with beautiful ballerina slippers and a pair of glittery Guccis on sale. They were a gift, nay a symbol, for newfound adulthood. The extravagance and glamour of the shoes brought me to tears as my mom handed me this gift. There are bloggers who own designer everything, but it may seem silly, as a thrifter and dealmaker, being handed a beautiful designer item meant the world to me, especially at that age.

Although Chanel doesn't sell online, I gathered my current favorite shoes on the Neiman's website.

The Girly Gift Guide of Home Decor

1 // 2 // 3 // 4 // 5 // 6 // 7 // 8 // 9 // 10 // 11

Due to my job search, when I'm not networking, I spend a lot of time at home. I love my apartment and how homey it truly feels. I'm all about home goods, especially cookware! This might be due to my marathon of Food Network madness (holla to Bobby Flay). 

I'm also a fan of absurd pillows, even if my couch is officially out of room. I put together a gift guide or wishlist of sorts as I browsed the plethora of online items.
