OKAY DON’T FREAK OUT, but you only have 7-ish more hours to take an extra 20% off sale items using code SPARKLE at Kate Spade. You’re freaking out, aren’t you? To save you some time, I’ve included my favorite sale items below. After you shop, come down from your retail therapy high by listening to one of my favorite new podcasts, How I Built This. They have a really awesome episode with the founders of Kate Spade—Kate Valentine and her hubs, Jack Spade. It’s good, y’all. Real good.
My birthday is in nine days. Do you know how I know this? Because it’s on my driver’s license. But also because the cheerful customer service guy who helped me cancel my health insurance over the phone (I’m joining my contract company’s plan) told me so. This is the difference between me turning 37 and me turning 26. As an almost 37-year-old, I proactively called to cancel my insurance so I wouldn’t have to pay double premiums. As an almost 26-year-old, I got a tattoo of a mustache on my finger from Bubba at Elm Street Tattoo in Dallas after having a shot of Tequila at Reno’s Chop Shop Saloon down the street. Pretty happy about both of these decisions. Annnyhoo, while perusing one of my favorite SERIOUSLY FUN online shops—BAN.DO—I realized I needed a lot of SERIOUSLY FUN stuff & things in my 37th year of life. I thought I’d create a post of my current favorites and send them to my boyfriend share them with y’all. Take a look and let me know your favorites in the comments! (It’s the roller skates, I just know it.)
There’s this thing that happens when I walk into Anthropologie. Joy overcomes me. All the colors. All the fabrics. All the textures. ALL OF THE DRESSES. A warm and fuzzy feeling runs up my body from my toes to my forehead. Then before I know it, I’m spinning through the store singing the main song from the movie Beaches at the tops of my lungs while the shop manager picks up the phone to call the mall police and women pick up their small children and back out of the store slowly. Ahem. Imagine my delight this morning when an email hit my inbox that read 25% off all dresses from Anthropologie. Take a look at my favorites below, then head over to the Anthropologie site or store to choose your own.
GUYS! Can we please talk about how cool Hawaii is? I MEAN COME ON! Scott and I just got back from our trip and I’m still soaking it all in. We watched an active volcano glow in the night, we hiked into a crater that was once filled with lava and we ate our weight in Li Hing Mui laced shaved ice. There’s so much more, you guys. I plan to share the gazillions of pics I took as soon as I get a chance to edit them all.
I wanted to say hi in the meantime. Hi! I also wanted to share a few fancy items I picked up at T.J. Maxx before the trip. I took a look at my wardrobe and realized I needed to stock up on some new duds. Sigh. My weight has been fluctuating all over the place and it seems I’m a little too big for my britches these days. (What’s new, AMIRITE LADIES?)
Hey! Happy St. Patrick’s Day! I’ve rounded up some of my favorite green things. Not that you care because you’re probably already elbow deep in a pitcher of green beer. ‘Tis the season!
Do you want the bad news or the good news first? Okay, good choice. Bad news: Saturday.com is closing. I know, I know!

Take advantage and get your hands on these favorites while you still can.
