Fall trends

Image
Let's go over the newest trends that you will see this fall. I'm in love with every one of these and have already started to stock up. Also, since fashion always comes back around you can find many affordable trend pieces on poshmark, thredup and the real real. When you spend less you, get to shop more! Animal print Let's get wild people, animal print is back! I always treat it like an accent color and prefer to wear this print in my accessories. And my animal fashionista is snow leopard. When you wear it, know that you may find yourself becoming a little wild. I always find myself a little more sassy when I take a walk on the "wild side" with this trend. Layering I'm always freezing so this is a trend I can totally get behind. There are some simple but neat ways to layer. Like putting a blazer over a hoodie. Or try a sweater with an open trench coat over it like a blazer. Designers are even two coat layering on th...

Used is the "New" way to shop and Jammies are the dress code.

I love love love, let me say it one more time, love secondhand shopping. And with today's technology you can do it in your jammies! Here are five of my favorite places to second hand shop online, and the deals are way too good to ever buy new again. I remember in high school that hand-me-downs were suppose to make you feel less than, but I never thought that way as a kid. If my friends or family didn't want something, I was like yes please! People seemed to still like my style and I believe that the second hand stigma is not really a thing anymore. Remember, if you have confidence you can rock anything! Buying a shirt doesn't have to cost you your shirt! Not unless you resell an old shirt to get yourself that new shirt. A little second hand humor for you. Poshmark I always check here before I buy any item I'm loving in the store. For example, I was looking for new  Stuart Witzmen 50/50 Boots . They go on sale in the summer for around $400. Now before you j...

5 ways to get that coin!

Image
Here is some of my side hustle and tricks to make some extra coin. You wanna go on an extra special Vaca? Do it! Want those new shoes? Wrap it up!!  Or do you just want to save more? Who doesn't want to make some extra cash money! 1. Sell your lightly used clothing and items online I love to use sites like Thredup , Poshmark , and Mecari to sell lightly used items I'm currently not using. Warning: once you start doing this you will start to see dollar signs associated with all of your stuff. I'm always working on simplifying my house with less clutter. Whenever I bring a new item in, I have to send another item out.  If it's in really good condition, why not get some cash for it? Easiest way to sell larger items is to post on your facebook to your local friends and family. Next easiest is for selling clothing to  thredup .  They give you a collection bag, a payout price for your items and they even recycle the items they can't accept. The most bang you g...

I just turned 35 and thought it would be great fun to give you exactly 35 random facts about me. Dick Van Dyke said "You have to be able to laugh at yourself. Attitude is almost more important than what happens to you." So let's have some laughs! Get yourself a beverage and let's get to it. These are in no order, I typed them as I thought of them!  1. My favorite animal is sharks. And my favorite shark is the Goblin Shark. 2. My Son and I have the same Birthday July 24. 3. I have a B.S. in Mathematics but I work in Marketing. 4. I love the smell of books in bookstores and libraries. 5. When I was in high school, I use to wear a sports bra over my regular bra to try to make my chest smaller because I was embarrassed of my body. 6. I was never really popular in school, but people knew who I was. 7. I'm naturally a shy person and I still struggle with it. 8. I have amazing intuition. I can just sense things and I always try to listen to it. ...
