Keeping Up With The Joneses

White Sweater with leggings- casual cozy outfit

Last night, I met up with the beautiful Lee Ann from Life in ATX to have some coffee and chat. First of all, what a sweet heart she is! :) We were chatting about all things blogging, obviously, and one topic came up that I have been thinking a lot about lately- how to keep up with the blogging world. Everywhere you look in the blogging community you see $700 handbags, $300 flats, and everything is designer. Now, don’t get me wrong, I love my Kate Spade planner and I do have a few (really tiny) designer bags (MK, Kate Spade, and Rebecca Minkoff), but these were purchased either on sale or at Nordstrom Rack. There is a point where I have to draw the line. I feel like a big thing that comes along with blogging is figuring out how NOT to give in to the pressure to buy anything and everything! I take pride in the fact that most of my outfits come from affordable and highly available retailers. I want to show my readers how to style items that they have in their closet or can at least afford to buy! It’s nice to look at that $500 dress with those $1000 heels, but it’s just not realistic to me. Even with all the money in the world I don’t think I could justify those kind of purchases. I would rather have 10 $50 dresses than 1 $500 dress, I like a little variety.

The  handbag in this outfit is probably my biggest splurge ever, I used two $50 gift cards I won at work and paid $48 for. I had anxiety even buying that, lol.  That being said, if you see anything designer on here, it was debated upon in my head for over a month and it’s GOT to be good! 😉 I just have to keep telling myself that I would rather have money saved for the days when we decide to start a family than have those Tory Burch flats. (I think…haha!) Stay strong budgeting ladies, you’re not alone!

The Shopping Bag

 

Aztec print tunic and leggings

This weekend was a leggings and boots type of weekend. It was cold and dreary and I just wanted to cuddle up and watch movies the entire time. Fortunately, I did get to do a little laying around, but let’s be realistic I’m an adult and adults have s*** to do on the weekends. So, to make it all a little more bearable leggings it was…all weekend long.

When The Shopping bag contacted me to collaborate I picked out this tunic because there is NOTHING I love more than bright colors in the winter time.  It’s super comfy and I absolutely LOVE that it’s long enough to wear with leggings and cover my tush. Always remember: leggings are not pants! Cover your butt! I say that with the most amount of love possible! :)

The Shopping Bag has some SUPER cute clothes and I’ve already begun a shopping list for myself (duh!) including this maxi dress…how amazing is the back of that thing? The best part? The Shopping Bag is offering 25% off to all of you All That Glitters readers with the discount code ALLTHATGLITTERS. So get yourself on over to their website and check out what they have to offer!

Plaid Under $50

Plaid under 50 bucksPlaid Under $50

Plaid isn’t going anywhere soon and I am SO thankful for that! I have been wearing so much of it (like here, here, and here) and with this bitter cold weather we have had for the past few days I have been bundling up in my plaid blanket scarf A LOT! I’ve found a bunch of plaid options for you that are all under $50…which you know makes me smile:) You can find pretty much anything in plaid these days, even blankets (yes, real ones), which I may need to invest in for my couch this Christmas! I’m really crushing on those plaid loafers and they are just like the J Crew ones, but a fraction of the price (try 1/3!). Hail to Nordstrom Rack! What’s your favorite plaid item?

Polka Dots and Teal

Polka dot sweater with a teal shirt

I am back from my 3 day weekend and I am SO tired! It was such a great weekend with our friends and I’m sad it’s over already. I love that our group of friends has stayed in touch so well and that we have such a great time when we’re all back together. I’m pretty sure I have eaten more food since they got in on Thursday than I usually do in two weeks time…no joke. Time to get back on the work out train and start my training schedule for the half marathon in March. Polka dot cardigan with teal button down Polka dots layered with teal top Polka dots and pearls Polka dot outfit inspiration Monogrammed gold bangle braceletGet The Look:

Shop Teal & Polka Dots:

This outfit is from last week and I love it! Layering is one of my favorite parts of fall and winter style and I have been dying to style this teal button down again since this post last fall. Once again, this polka dot sweater has been on repeat since I bought it earlier in the fall. It’s so comfortable and you really can’t go wrong with polka dots.  I’m still trying to play catch up from a busy weekend, so we’ll see if I make it back with a post tomorrow. If not, I will see you all on Thursday!

My October Favorites

My oh my, I cannot believe that it is November already. I’m pretty sure I say that at the beginning of every month week. It’s just crazy to me how fast the time is going by. Before you know it, it will be December 24th and Christmas will be here! Although, going in to stores this weekend, you would think Christmas was tomorrow! The Christmas decorations are out and in full force, I can’t believe some stores didn’t even wait until Halloween was over. I won’t lie to you though, I already have a list of great Christmas crafts I’m going to get on pretty soon for my 12 days of Christmas crafts posts in December. But, let’s not get ahead of ourselves here, it’s still November 3rd. So, in honor of Halloween month officially being over, I will leave you with my favorite outfits for the month of October. Enjoy!
