I'm Loving: Target Door Mats (ON SALE!)

After we bought our house I was on the hunt for a great door mat. I finally hunted down this adorable one from Target. It was old out for awhile and they recently brought it back, along with a bunch of other great styles. I thought I would do a round up since there were so many cute ones that also happen to be on sale this week! I picked up a few seasonal ones that I can't wait to use, like that adorable watermelon one!

I'M LOVING: TARGET PILLOWS

You guys, it has been way too long since I have done an I'm Loving post! And I couldn't help myself when I saw all the sales Target was doing in their home section. More specifically their pillows! I love me some Target pillows and it is hard for me not to buy all of them. I recently bought a ton for our bedroom and had to cut myself off otherwise our bed would have looked like Josie Geller's needlepoint collection from Never Been Kissed. Anywayssssss, I rounded up some of my favorite they have right now and they are ALL on sale! Try not to be all the things mmmmkkkay.

Registering with Babies"R" Us & $100 Gift Card



Ella taking a bath in her PUJ Tub, another one of our favorite baby items!

When my friends were having babies and I would need to get them a gift, I always went to the same store. Now I won't name names, but basically this place sells adorable baby stuff, but it is pretty limited and usually is on the higher end of price range. So of course when I was pregnant this is where I started going and was one of the places I registered because it was the only place I really knew of.

After my baby shower I received several gifts from Babies"R"Us that I really loved. It surprised me because, honestly, I had never even thought to go there before. *smacks forehead* I am not sure why I never did, but I guess it probably had to do with it never being on my radar before I was expecting. Well after I had Ella and I needed some extra things I had checked my usual places and no one had what I desperately needed RIGHT THEN in stock. Then I remembered, Babies"R"Us! I was floored with all that they carried. It was, by far, the most variety and largest selection I had seen. I was kicking myself for waiting so long to have gone. Oh and they totally saved my butt and had what I needed in stock! I even found a last minute (perfect) outfit for Ella that I was needing for family pictures there when I couldn't find something anywhere else.

Having had several great experiences with Babies"R"Us it is now my suggested store for all things baby to my family and friends! I recently helped my friend register there, and it was fun to walk around and pick items to add. I think the biggest perk to going to the store, is being able to talk to a staff where their entire focus is on baby. At other places I registered, they sold a ton of different things not focusing on baby, so when I would ask for something specific, or need an opinion, they weren't as equipped to help me. I have been impressed with the knowledge on different products and brands the Babies"R"Us staff had the times I have gone. I also can't say enough about the organization of their stores. They have everything very clearly organized in different areas and sections where you can see from where you are standing at all times where everything is. I can't tell you how many times in other places I have had to walk up and down aisles trying to locate something. Their registry even has an endless earnings option, where registrants earn up to 10% back on purchases made from their registries. No limits! So it is in your best interest to register for everything you could ever want and save some money. They really simplify things for a new mother and have put together different registry checklists depending on your situation, must haves, suggestions from experienced moms, adopting, you name it they have a list for it! They then have everything organized on a baby guide to make it even easier to shop. Right now I am particularly enjoying having the toys organized by age appropriateness so I know what the next best interactive toy I can get Ella should be. Their resources are really endless, I mean, they offer breast pump rentals too!
 
I really want to reiterate here that while I get approached to work with several companies, I only ever share things I truly feel will benefit or interest my readers, as well as things I have tried and loved. I was thrilled to share my experience with Babies"R"Us because this is something I have already been sharing with friends, and already had a YouTube video in the works to talk about my favorite baby things, resources etc. which included Babies"R"Us! If you or a friend are expecting, you should check out the store and create a registry with the help of the knowledgeable staff as your resource. Honestly, this place is an amazing one stop shop for anything you would need for your babe.

Here are some of mine and Ella's favorite things we have been using these past four months. These items have been life savers!


Vulli Sophie the Giraffe Teether // aden® by aden + anais® Wearable Blanket // Ameda Purely Yours Double Electric Breast Pump // Oball Rattle // Twist & Fold Activity Gym // Crane Drop Shape Ultrasonic Cool Mist Humidifier // Philips AVENT BPA Free 0-3 Months 2 Pack Soothie Pacifier // 4moms MamaRoo Infant Seat

I'M LOVING: ASOS MATERNITY DRESSES

You may have seen me post about THIS dress a few times now. As evidenced here and here. I have already expressed my love for it, as well as my love for ASOS in general. ASOS has always been one of my favorite places to shop because they have such unique pieces and often more modest. ASOS also happens to have a killer Maternity section. I remember once falling in love with a dress on ASOS but it was a maternity dress... I seriously contemplated just getting it anyways! haha Since I am pregnant for the whole summer, dresses have been my saving grace! And ASOS has SO many cute maternity dresses, I seriously want ALL OF IT! If only money wasn't a thing we had to deal with in life right? Anyways, check out some of my maternity dress picks and if you're pregnant make sure to take a look at their entire line of Maternity Clothing because it is one of the best out there!

I'M LOVING: Kate Spade Surprise Sale!

Oh man guys, I am so tempted to buy something right now! I am trying to be better about spending especially with the baby coming so it is taking everything in me not to get something right now. So to help me cure my need, okay, wants, I thought I would share with YOU some of my favorite picks from the Kate Spade Surprise. I LOVE when Kate Spade does their surprise sales because you can get such great stuff for a killer deal. I literally got as far as putting this beauty in my cart and almost paying for it before I said, NO, NO, NO. But look at that price? It is such a cute little hand bag. It is so similar to the red Kate Spade bag I have that I love with the tassel, the cow, hide and the striped lining. Oh man... someone get it, just someone out there must have this! haha I also got this bag during the last surprise sale and think it is such a classic staple. I use it all the time for Church or other functions that are nicer but not necessarily fancy. I am also loving this bag! I love the the cinch top, and how cute is that back pack? Okay, okay, I will stop.

I'M LOVING: SHOPBOP SALE

Shopbop is one of my favorite places to find high quality amazing pieces. If only my wallet was a little deeper! But really, the huge Shopbop sale is one of the biggest sales of the year. If there's a brand or piece of clothing you've been waiting to splurge on now is your time, friends. You will also receive your purchase so quickly you almost get the rush that you had bought it in the store. I have purchased several things from Shopbop and have been blown away by how quickly everything came. and their shipping is FREE, so you can't beat that. I have also returned items with no problem at all. Basically just an awesome company all around!

I'M LOVING: STOCKING STUFFERS

This week's I'm Loving is focusing on great stocking stuffers! Or at least stocking stuffers that I would love and want, haha. Every Christmas after all the presents are opened, a light bulb goes off and you are reminded that you still have stockings! Santa always went all out on our stockings, and they have always been one of my favorite parts of Christmas. I love small and little gifts, the practical, the ones that make you smile... or the yummy cutie orange hiding in the toe! What are some of your favorite stocking stuffers?

I'M LOVING: BEANIE WEATHER

In America we call these hats beanies, but in Canada they call them toques. Growing up in America with a Canadian family, I use the words interchangeably. Beanies are one of my favorite winter accessories, providing warmth while also having the ability to be an adorable accessory. I feel like over the last few years beanies have been taken up a notch, including jeweled applications and even veils, I mean, how breath taking is this one?! There really is something out there for everyone. Below are some beanies I have been loving from around the interwebs!

I'M LOVING: HOLIDAY GIFT SETS

The other day a co-worker came over to my desk to show me a gift set she had recently purchased from Sephora. We each took turns looking at all the different high end lip products she got in just this one set for less than $60. There is nothing that gets me giddier then a gift set because you get to try a ton of new products for a fraction of the cost. I always find them to make great stocking stuffers, and it was actually through a Benefit Gift Set in my stocking one year that I found and fell in love with the Benefit Hoola Bronzer which is my pride and joy!  Since this is the time of year where all the great gift sets come out, I thought I would put together a bunch of my favorites!



1. I have heard people rave about Ole Henriksen and I have been dying to try it out! I am specifically interested in the Truth Serum™ Collagen Booster, but would love to get my hands on a little bit of everything. This is a great way to try it out without commiting to buying the full bottle sizes!
2. One of my hands down favorite lipsticks comes from the Kat Von D Line, so the idea of getting a bunch of sample lipsticks for only $39 makes my heart flutter! I NEED THIS!
3. The Sephora Favorites Superstars Box contains bestselling, head-to-toe beauty essentials! I can already spot a handful of my personal favorites, and this would be such a great way to see why everyone else is loving these products!
4. These iconic Shea Butter Hand Creams would make the perfect gift for your co-workers or girlfriends. Buy the box and hand out the creams! $8.40 a person isn't too shabby!
5. A perk-me-up lip and cheek kit in assorted pinks! I love Benefit, and this cute little number is calling my name.
6. Another Sephora Favorites box, I know, I know, but I can't help myself. I love seeing and trying out what other people are loving because odds are YOU WILL TOO! Plus this one has glamorous party essentials, packed into a festive metallic clutch.
7. I have been a lover of Bare Minerals for years. If you have been wanting to try them out without breaking the bank, this is the perfect starter kit!
8. I have been wanting to try out Glamglow for FOREVER, but the price tag has always scared me off. But this trio of Glamglow bestselling skincare treatment masks retailed at $118 for $68 might push me to try them out.
9. I LOVE PERFUME. Sephora is KNOWN for their perfume Samplers! Inside this box, you’ll find 14 samples of some of our most sought-after women’s perfumes. Choose your favorite, and then take the included scent certificate to any US Sephora store* to redeem for a full-size bottle of your favorite featured fragrance at no extra cost. So you are basically paying for one full size bottle and a TON of free samples.... WIN, WIN!
10. Buxom Lip Glosses are the BOMB. I would die to try all of them!!!
11. I have recently become obsessed with Sephora Formula X nail polishes. This limited-edition collection of 22 mini nail polishes would be a great gift for any nail lover!
12. I have seen Youtubers rave about First Aid Beauty Skin products and you can't beat the value of this gift set! $48.00 ($100 value)
13. And last but not least, the box that started it all. The Sephora Favorites Give Me More Lip. This is the gift set my co-worker brought in. A 17-piece, must-have lip sampler set of sticks, glosses, liners, treatments, tars, liquids, balms, and creams in an irresistible array of red, pink, nude, and berry shades. *sigh*

I'M LOVING: OLD NAVY SALE

I am not going to lie, I haven't shopped at Old Navy in years! Remember their annual summer sandal sales? Me and my sisters would go crazy in middle school and high school buying up all their sandals. It helped we were all about the same size shoe, so we could swap ;) But by the time I graduated from high school I felt like Old Navy had kind of gone south a little bit, and I haven't shopped there since. A few weeks ago I saw someone post about some jeans they got from Old Navy and I thought they were adorable. So of course I had to take a look for myself, and I found myself loving item after item. Where have I been? When did Old Navy get their mojo back? Apparently I have been missing out on some great stuff for awhile now.

Not too long ago I hit up a great sale they were doing and got a ton of stuff, and they have another amazing sale going on right now too, so I thought I had to share with you all! I love Old Navy because they have affordable staple pieces that are wearable everyday items. They are running a pretty great sale right now, they have up to 60% OFF for their 20th birthday! Not too shabby right? So here are some different items I have been loving from Old Navy that you might want to check out ;)

I'M LOVING: SUMMER TO FALL

I would never spend over two grand on a dress, but dang I love this one! A girl can dream right? That's why I included it in this week's I'm Loving post. I love how it looks like a piece of art with the print and flowy a-line. It is also incredibly versatile; it can be summery with a pair of sandals, or add a leather jacket and now it works for a fall night. I put together a transition from summer to fall with how I would wear this dress. I will definitely be on the hunt for it's doppelgänger! And can we talk about those shoes from Forever21? Hello! P.S. I have been DYING for that yellow Marc Jacobs bag, and it is on sale... *swoon*

I'M LOVING: JCREW FACTORY

I have always been a huge fan of J.Crew Factory! They have such classic pieces for a more affordable price point than J.Crew. They recently added a bunch of new arrivals and they have some really great pieces! Instead of putting together an entire outfit that goes together I figured today I would just share all the items I'm loving! From my picks it looks like I am ready for fall... Oh and they are offering 25% OFF online right now and most of this is already on sale as it is, sooooo, be prepared :)

I'M LOVING: POLKA DOTS

If you couldn't tell from my new blog design, I have a thing for polka dots. Without even realizing it I find it in clusters amongst my wardrobe. I am obviously drawn to them. I used this adorable dress from ASOS as inspiration for this week's I'm Loving post. I love a good Kelly green, and thought this bag just popped against the black and white look. Now if only I could afford that amazing leather jacket... *SWOON!*

I'M LOVING: BLACK, RED, & BLUE.

I don’t know what it is about black and red together that is so striking, but when you add a pop of blue to the mix my heart just starts fluttering. I love this combination! I know you can't really tell in this image, because I couldn't find a great shot of it, but the MAC Relentlessly Red is a dynamite red, and I can't wait to get my hands on it. The color in the image below just doesn't do it justice. It is the perfect retro matte red! You better believe I will be recreating this look :) Now I just wish those Ray Bans would find their way into my hands... obsessed.

I'M LOVING: I'M FANCY

I don't know what has come over me this week but my girly side is coming out. My style is usually eclectic and I like to mix and match. I am not normally drawn to things "overly girly" but these pants from Kate Spade inspired me to put together a really fun, girly glam look. Every once in a while it is fun to go all out!
 
Whenever I wear a high neck line top I like to have big statement earrings or a necklace, and pull my hair back. This creates a really gorgeous classy look that has a lot of elegance. It also makes the jewelry the focus, as well as your face. That Nars lipstick is on my next splurge list, the color pay off is incredible! The Betsey Johnson perfume is not only pretty, but has a great sultry scent. It is a scent I wouldn't have normally been drawn to, but Trevor bought it for me as part of my Christmas present when we first started dating and after wearing it a bunch I have grown to absolutely love it. Plus, it seems like guys always comment on it when I wear it, and seeing that is was picked by a guy... that must be saying something. So if your looking for a scent that the boys will like, its worth a try!
 
Hope this girly glam look inspires your next date night or girl's night out look! Add a fun dramatic wing to your make up and your set ;)
