EASTER ALREADY?!

Wow this year is just flying! Almost April already?! Unfortunately that means I’ve been graduated for almost 4 months now and still haven’t found a big girl job…… depressed. 🙁 (Maybe this is all one elaborate April fool’s joke that the corporate world is playing on me and by April 2nd I’ll get a phone call telling me that I’m hired and awesome. That’s totally it.) I will cheer myself up though with some Easter dress shopping and for all you fab readers, I’m sharing super cute dresses for under $55! Click the prices to shop these looks! [$29.90 & $15.90] For those of you who don’t want to break the bank, you can always count on Forever 21 for something cute and affordable!  [on sale $29.98, $48.00, $48.00, & $54.00] Francesca’s not only has a huge selection of dresses right now, but they also have a buy one get one 50% off all items except shoes, home and gifts! [$40.00] This dress is so fun and not too dressy! You’ll definitely be able to wear it all Spring and Summer long! Thanks for reading! I hope your Monday hasn’t been too dreadful! Treat yourself to a fab dress if it was! 😉 xoxo, Nickie

SPRING

Spring is here and I’m loving the perfect warm weather! Hunter and I went on a walk so I figured I’d make him take some pictures while we were around good scenery, hehe. This top is Lush Clothing, my favorite brand lately for versatile pieces for any season! They’re sold at Nordstrom’s, Lulu*s, Francesca’s, and a ton of other stores! I’ve even found some hidden at TjMaxx and Marshalls! Their items are perfect for looking fab going from work to happy hour! The gel flats I’m wearing are probably the most comfortable pair of flats I’ve ever owned and they were $13. Can you believe that? I need to go back and get the silver ones and so do you! Spring is here, ladies! Stock up on fun pieces like a fringe bucket bag! No need to break the bank, mine was from Ross for $15.99! You just gotta find time to shop around. 🙂 Go on, treat yourself! Thanks for reading, loves! xoxo, Nickie

ICE, ICE, BABY

FRI-YAY!

Dallas finally got hit with a real Winter this week! Sleet, ice days and snow, plus a winter warning for more this weekend. Since the weather wasn’t fit for blog pictures, I wanted to talk about things I have my eye on (or have already purchased) for the Spring! Click the pictures to shop! 🙂 This snakeskin foldover clutch (which I bought in grey) was worth every penny. It’s a large clutch, so versatile, and great for spring especially in the white! Francesca’s has a student discount so go in-store and show them your student ID for 10% off! As you can tell I’m really into grey for Spring, and these fringe booties are to die for. Definitely at the top of my watchlist! Chinese Laundry usually will send a 30% off coupon via email so make sure to sign up for their emails! I am not much of a floral print kind of gal, but I actually really love this maxi! Lucy & Lyla has some other prints and colors too. I’m loving these scalloped nude pumps by Betsey Johnson! Chinese Laundry has a similiar shoe for $10 cheaper! Both sold at DSW for $30 off the original price? Um, one in every color please! I’ve always been a fan of peplum tops (they hide my chubby belly well) and I love this classic and affordable pep from Forever21, whose having a 30% off sale items promotion this weekend btw! So I hope these pictures of skinny, pretty models in cute spring attire made up for my lack of pictures for this weekend’s post! My forecast for Spring trends are fringe, white white white, and light grey! Thanks for reading babes and I hope everyone has a fantastic weekend! xoxo, Nickie
