Hello friends! Be sure to follow along on Instagram and Pinterest for all the behind the scenes, not to mention my new FAVE app Periscope!!

 

Thank you so much for the comments across all platforms on our dining table makeover. I LOVE refinishing furniture and helping others learn too! Again, if this is something you'd love to learn more about, join the list to stay in the loop on this passion project of mine to teach more people how to create their OWN masterpieces!

 

Now onto boots and handbags!  When I was younger......which wasn't that long ago by the way. ;-) Haha. So, I would buy the latest trendy thing for cheap when it came to clothing, shoes, and accessories. I have since become frustrated with the quality, items falling apart and not lasting, and decided to start buying less, and buying well for those staple pieces. I remember buying this cheap faux leather tote that had this pretty faux basketweave detailing on the front and within one week, the basketweave snapped and I couldn't use it anymore. It was such a waste of my time and money.

 

With that said, on this blog I share various price points, but today is about sharing quality items for a steal of a price through the weekend!  If you have been saving up for high quality leather boots or a handbag, this is the perfect time to get a deal on a piece that will last years.  

 

Below are some of my fave picks from the Tory Burch Fall Event. You can score up to 30% off using the code FALL EVENT when checking out. The quality of Tory Burch is excellent and they have classic coastal pieces.

If you are popping on here and are just looking for some less expensive items to add to your Fall wardrobe this year, here are a few suggesstions.

OLD NAVY is having their Thank You event with up to 40% off.  I might score some of their curvy jeans at Buy one, get one at 50% off.  I personally have a tough time finding a good fit, and these don't give me anxiety to order online. Below is what's in my inbox currently.  Yes....I'm trying to narrow it down a bit. Lol

BaubleBar officially has my love.  They are continuously adding new, beautiful pieces of jewelry that are just my style. Below are some of my favorites as well as new pieces they've added. You are can get 20% your first order too! The acrylic monogram bracelet is probably my FAVE

I'd love to know if you find that perfect item to add to your fall wardrobe.  Whether you are a college student, stay at home mom, work at home mom, single, married, I want this to be an inspiring place for you for home design, fashion, and speaking confidence into your life.  All these things are part of our lives, but not nearly as valuable as the time we take to take care of ourselves and spend special moments with loved ones. 

 

Love you guys!

Anneke

Splurge vs. Save: Skinny Jeans, Plaid, Military Vests, and More

Hello friends! Be sure to follow along on Instagram and Pinterest for all the behind the scenes, not to mention my new FAVE app Periscope!!

Happy #WishListWednesday beautiful friends! The more opportunities I get to work with women one on one, I've realized more and more how helpful it is to be able to find "Looks for Less".  I personally have determined what kind of items I am willing to save and pay a little more money for in quality, but I completely understand that not everyone wants that for themselves.  I totally get it - especially in the years I was pregnant and nursing, my body was changing frequently and I was looking for options to look and feel my best through those transitions without investing in multiple pieces at different sizes.

 

Ok, so I am a fashion lover and research freak.  There...I admit it. I love love love the challenge of searching the internet, styling outfits, and brining you all the options.  And when I find the perfect item that is all sold out (boo!), I keep looking for you.  I love it.

 

I hope you love this look and find that special something for your fall and winter wardrobe, which is basically the same thing here in Washington state. Lol  I am personally loving those Ugg Rainboots - just wishing they came in a bright red color like the Hunters. ;-)

 

Have a beautiful day friends and see you back here tomorrow for the dining room table makeover! It's a beauty!!

 

xo,

Anneke

Fashion Friday: Mad for Plaid

Fashion Blog PostsAnneke McConnell

Hello friends! Be sure to follow along on Instagram and Pinterest for all the behind the scenes, not to mention my new FAVE app Periscope!!

Hello there beautiful friends! I don't know about you, but I can seem to get enough plaid this time of year. From the classic collared button down shirt, to rainboots, bags, scarves, and more, plaid screams cozy, fall, and fashionable.

Today I've rounded up some of my favorite finds for you to pick from if you are on the hunt for the perfect plaid top.  As much as I'd love to personally own a kajillion plaid tops, I suggest finding maybe two that you love, are great quality, and fit well for your height and (ahem) chest. ;-)

Pair it with distressed denim, heels or tennis, a puffer vest or faux fur vest, dainty necklace or statement necklace and you are good to go! Mix and match is where it's at!

 


xo,

Anneke
