I am part of a bloggers group and they have been having a summer challenge... And I have been totally slacking off. In looking back on some of the topics, there was one I really wanted to write about... "Share Your Favorite Thing" it was called. They said "Pretend you are a celebrity and you are telling your fans all about the thing you cannot live without."
I will tell you the first thing that popped in my mind. TOMS Classics. Legit, these save the day all the time lately. Don't know what to wear? Need a pop of color? Need a neutral? Need something on your feet before your baby explodes into flames or your dog into a puff of fur because you promised them they could go for a w. a. l .k (we spell it in this house, don't say it, because the dog totally knows the word) 15 minutes ago?
They are comfortable and easy to slip on. Perfect for everyday and come in a ton of colors and fabrics. I've even expanded into some booties and wedges recently. All in all, definitely my favorite thing since I was too pregnant to tie my shoes... :) Check them out and if you use this link (this one right here), I think you will get $20 off your first purchase! :)So what is your favorite product? What can't you live without? Share in the comments!
Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur... The Important Stuff...
Ok. It's awful. I have been on my No Pants Dance for... how long? I can't remember! Four months? Am I delirious from no shopping? Oh dear.Here's the worst part...Rosh Hashanah in next week. I know! Terrible!What do you mean you don't understand?! Alright, I'll explain it.Rosh Hashanah is one of the Jewish New Years. The name literally mean head (rosh) of the year (hashanah). This is when we change the year (from 5772-5773). It is a happy, celebratory time but also reflective of the year past. We reflect and apologize for our mistakes then go into Yom Kippur and come out in Sukkot with freshly laundered souls. Very spiritual and cool... what the heck does this have to do with my No Pants Dance?I NEED A NEW OUTFIT FOR ROSH HASHANAH SERVICES!!! Everyone knows if you buy a new outfit for something, it's Rosh Hashanah!
I know, I'm crazy but seriously, I have had my eye on this dress at Shabby Apple for AGES and I really want it. For those of you who know me you know that I have a very specific style. I can only call it vintage/retro. Basically, I like to look like I live in the 1950's. There have been two online stores that have fed this addiction - Stop Staring and Shabby Apple. Stop Staring is great for a few pieces but I have just FALLEN IN LOVE with Shabby Apple.
