Wanted to share about an awesome sale I'm super excited about every time it comes around: The JCREW additional 50% off sale!
That means, the items that are on sale, have an extra 50% off that price. You can find GREAT quality shoes, sweaters, summer dresses and swimwear at amazing prices.
For example: the adorable gingham dress, which I am still loving, and will always be reaching for come spring time.
I haven't blogged in a while and it's been even longer since I've shared about our recently parties!
If you follow this blog (Or my instagram) or know me personally, then you may know my sisters and I love to throw and decorate for parties. A thirtieth birthday party for our last baby sister is almost expected after the one we threw for my older sis - haha actually for her 31st (HERE!) and then the one they surprise threw for me on my 29th! (HERE!!)
We also like to do things on a budget but make it look like we went all out. Flowers are EVERYTHING. If you spend a little extra on real flowers, the party will look amazing. Also, the more simple and chic you make it, the less "stuff" you need to fill the space. Maybe that is just our style but more is less on our tables..
We had a sweet girl,Esther Kirilyuk, of Esther Kirilyuk Photography(if you are local, check her page out!) photographed the party for us (so we wouldn't go crazy and miss out on anything) but I also enjoyed snapping a few pics.
We wanted to have a flower shop feel for the theme, and the flowers were decoration but also used as favors for the guests to take home- they each got to arrange their own bouquets to take home. I loved seeing how the guests picked color palettes and every single one looked stunning. I was so happy with the result!
July is an awesome time to have a flower shop party because where we live, that is where the most flowers are in a full bloom! I was able to get amazing dahlias from a local seller and cut my own sunflowers from a local field. Even though summer is coming to an end... (I am having end-of-summer blues & in denial) this party is totally adjustable and can work for a lot of different seasons! Can you imagine the beautiful fall colors you can incorporate for a fall themed florist shop??! Trader Joes will always have your back, in the end, for all the extra fillers and pretty spay roses and hydrangeas year round!
Enough talking: Enjoy the beautiful pictures! 30 exactly! :)
Happiest birthday to our baby sis!!!
Thank you for reading and follow me for more DIY's, refashions, parties and ideas!!
It's that time of year again when you make resolutions... to shop less, to spend less. It's also some of the hardest days to get through because you have post-holiday sadness, and the cold, cloudy weather when you are craving sunshine! You could also use some retail-therapy but you spent all your money on Christmas and that would break most of your resolutions, too! Haha! Can anyone relate??
I have the perfect solution for you! And it'll add something special to your winter outfit, for only $10.00.
A Faux Fur Scarf!! I cannot believe how soft and cozy this faux fur is! My youngest girl, Lily, steals this scarf from me any time she gets the chance to curl up in it. Makes me think I need to make her one!
It's a super simple DIY- hardly any pinning or measuring. Under 30 minutes: a few cuts, a few stitches and you'll have your new favorite accessory! Also, it will help you to keep your resolutions, AND keep you warm! :)
All you need:
1/2 YD Faux Fur (Got mine at Hobby Lobby)
