Fab Finds: Friends and Family Sales

At work, I’m running around all day dealing with all sorts of friends and family events and special promotions.   All at once, the following thoughts fight for my attention.  Is the DJ too loud?  How many appointments did we book for the facial events?  Does the bottle engraver need additional display units for her engraving and bottle painting station?  Are the jewelry trunk shows set up in time?  Does the photo booth vendor have all the load – in / out instructions and day-of contacts?  Have I received the latest invoices and contracts?  Are the linens lined up perfectly straight and to the floor?  This is mind of an event planner.

For all of you Saks Fifth Avenue fans, here is the friends and family coupon -so go shopping!

Given I just spent a bundle during my birthday week which happened to coincide with double employee discount, I was able to resist another round of Saks shopping.

However, when my friend posted a similar friends and family discount from Kate Spade’s, I couldn’t resist taking a look.  And needless to say, I fell in love.  Here are my fab finds.

They’re classic, tie in my bow obsession and are super feminine and pretty – totally my style.  THEN I ran into these fun fuschia pumps with black and white striped heel detail.  And my heart jumped a beat.

And with this 30% off coupon, I am SOOOO tempted!  argh!  What shall I do??  Buy or resist, ladies?

Style Diary: Weekend Wear

I’m afraid that the warm weather that I love is quickly slipping away.  So any warm weekend that I get during the early fall months, makes me want to wear something short and summery, just in case it’s my last hurrah.  This past weekend was no exception.  Sunday morning was bright and sunny and having just sold my bridal petticoat for more than I paid for it, I was in a terrific mood.

The tee shirt is from by Threads from Off 5th (I bought it for about $15 after my employee discount), the slim black cardigan is from H&M $19.99 and the skirt is a Daffy’s (discount retailer) purchase that I bought about 10 years ago also for about $20.  Phew, it still fits!  The flats with chain detail are BCBG ( I think I bought them at TJ Maxx a couple years ago) and the chain bracelet was an impulse buy at Ann Taylor Loft this past week. Sunglasses are Chanel from Saks.

My nails are extra fun this week.  I discovered Pinterest.com thanks to a friend of mine and have been hooked ever since.  It’s like an online photo album where you can collect images that you love from all over the web and organize the photos that you already have from your own computer.  I recently started a manicure/pedicure collection of images that I’ve discovered while browsing pinterest that has inspired me to do something fun to my nails.Here’s the image that inspired me.Ever  have one of those “I can DO THIS!” motivational moments?  Well this picture inspired mine because I actually came home from fashion week last season with a ton of glittery nail polish.  Here is what I did to my nails Sunday night.

Diamonds are a girls’ best friend and that’s what my new at-home manicure reminds me of.  How do you like this?

I went a little post-pinterest.com crazy and got so inspired that I didn’t stop at my hands.  I went a little nuts on my feet too. This is the picture of patterned nails that inspired me.

And here are my toesies.  🙂 silly me.. I smudged my big toe but strangely, the smudge left a faint heart mark.

Damnit, why are my feet wrinkly?  Is it all the hours under the sun that I’ve logged, all the beach-walking in the Bahamas for my birthday, or the hours of foot massage that I’ve indulged in?  Aging sucks.
