Pink Sand and Sparkly Shoes

  So lately the weather here has been so wishy-washy, no pun intended.  One minute your in a t-shirt and jeans, the next your wearing your wool coat and mittens.  It's crazy!  Oh, we got the girls pink sand for their sandbox the other day at Walmart, yes pink sand!  They love it.  Plus it makes clean up a breeze because I can see where they dumped the sand in the grass by "mistake" lol.
  And speaking of pink, I found the cutest pair of sparkly ballet flats with hello kitty on it, at Target the other day, not for me of course (I'm bummed about that one!).  This is the new "go to" pair of shoes at the moment.  Little sis though wants in on the action and tries them on when big sis isn't looking.  It's too cute.  Just like trying on my heels, why is that little kids love dressing up in mommy's shoes?  Oh wait, I did that too with my mom's shoes!
 Well In the meantime, whether we wear our sandals or flats I am just ready for some dependable weather.  Can the Easter Bunny really drop eggs in the yard if there is snow on the ground?  Both kids said yes, haha.
  So enjoy the snow, rain, or whatever weather comes your way, and some sparkly shoes or a shot of pink can't hurt either!  Angela

First Day of Spring and Shopping Deals

  Spring is finally here which means bring in the spring clothes and take out the winter coats!  Spring brings along many new and exciting fashion trends, and in my continuous quest for designer duds for discount prices, I came across this website http://www.bluefly.com and was immediately hooked.  The latest crave right now and what I want to have updated into my wardrobe is the bright spring color clothes, skinny jeans, floral dresses, ruffles, leggings, ballet flats, and trench coats.
  So in search of spring color clothes, on http://www.bluefly.com I found by designer Marc by Marc Jacobs these amazing turquoise stretch skinny leg jeans, talk about getting ready for spring!  This insanely cute pair of jeans is a must for my wardrobe right now and at 61% off the regular retail price, I'm sold.  You can find these jeans here:  http://www.bluefly.com/designer/marc-by-marc-jacobs.
  Along the same designer line, Marc by Marc Jacobs also has handbags.  My love of course is to one day acquire a Chanel crossbody bag, but I found something quite similar and much cheaper too.  It is a beige quilted leather 'Day To Night Single' crossbody bag by Marc by Marc Jacobs.  This bag is definitely for the fashionista who wants to have people green with envy!  This also is 20% off the regular retail price, and always at http://www.bluefly.com, returns are easy if you really are not satisfied with your purchase.  The Marc by Marc Jacobs line of handbags can be found here: http://www.bluefly.com/Marc-Jacobs-Marc-by-Marc-Jacobs-Handbags/_/N-1z1409uZ1z140n4Zfrg/list.fly.
  I am happy to have come across this website and that I can share this with everyone because it really makes shopping fun and easy.  They have various ways to shop on their site such as if you want to shop by a certain look, the boot shop, the dress shop, and even a girls night out shop.  And whats new to this site is they now sell fragrances for men and women with a savings of up to 40% off the retail price!  Burberry and and Juicy Couture are my "go to" scents, but I am anxious to try True Religion.  If they can make a great pair of jeans, I am sure their fragrance will be just as great!
  Hopefully everyone will enjoy the first day of spring today and have some happy spring shopping too!  Angela
