Gearing up for Cyber Monday

I hope that everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving weekend! As the craziness of Black Friday is coming to a close, we are getting into my more favored day: Cyber Monday! 
I much prefer shopping from the comfort of my own couch, in my jammies, rather than braving the stores with the masses— and this year there's actually better deals online than anything you'll find in the stores….(good thinking on department stores part, I say!) 

Here are a few products I'm starting my Christmas shopping for tonight. Just a few quickies…we'll cover the rest tomorrow. Since there are a LOT that made my top faves this year. Here's what I'm currently shopping: 



King & Fifth Supply Co. 20% off everything online. Men's and Women's beanies in a variety of different colors and knits. I haven't actually purchased this brand before but I love their slouch. (Beanie wearers know that you've got to have the perfect hipster slouch!;) I am stocking up and ordering the "Forte" in red, black, & dark grey— for men AND women, since a certain someone I live with is always trying to gank my beanies! *babe*


Luna B. They don't have much in the way of Cyber sales but they DO have some killer steals on swimwear right now. Use the promo code DIVEIN to save 50% off of swim lines like Acacia, Wildfox, Amuse Society, and Beach Riot. Now's the time to stock up for summer!!






Brandy Melville is offering 20% off everything online! Which is great because I lovvvve me some B—Mel for basics! The materials are just light and airy. Perfect for layering, although the fabric hangs so well that they're my usual suspects for casual dress. The best part is that almost every piece fits into the perfect Cali wardrobe. Word to the wise, they're Vodi shorts run as low as $10 (pre-sale) so I'd hit this up while you can, in every color. I'll be set for pj bottoms for life! 
                     
Reformation Clothing If you want to own some of the prettiest dresses….and sexiest jumpsuits…then you need to head over online to Reformation Clothing. They have sales going on right now— which like, never happens, and while you'll still spend a pretty penny on it, I cannot even begin to tell you what a great investment it is. Sure, I can't wear the few items I have of their's ALL the time. But when I do? I feel like the belle of the ball. They're just such quality design and fabrics, that they'll last you forever and they get compliments. Every time. You can save up to 50% off on select items through tomorrow, online only. 


Nordstrom is crushing it with their sales as always. Right now, through Tuesday, you can save 30% off select items in the store. But I must say that their "selections" are pretty damn good to choose from. Like these Elie Tahari Booties, on sale. I have a feeling that I am going to end up doing a LOT of damage at Nordie's this Christmas… 

I hope this helps. Stay tuned tomorrow for more Cyber Monday Deals and fabulous finds. I'm sure i'll be up all night, compulsively online shopping. lol.

free the people


So why does a Free People Vegan Tote need to be on the top of your Christmas/Hannukah list? Because it's the most multi-functional bag for busy moms! Actually, I take that back…it's not just for moms— it's for anyone who's just busy! 


The best feature of this bag is it's versatility. Really a 3-in-1 bag, the vegan tote comes with a spacious tote (obviously), a laptop bag, and a coin purse/wristlet. 

The "middle" bag as I like to call it, fits my Mac Airbook, so I tend to call it a laptop bag…I have no idea whether or not it's actually intended to be one…but whatever, it works. You could use it as an on-the-go makeup case, a toiletry bag….the possibilities are endless. LOL. I love to use it as my clutch for the evenings when I don't feel like lugging around a ginormous bag. (Of course it easily fits your wallet, keys, phone, spare makeup, etc. etc. etc…)


The coin purse doubles as a super cute wristlet and hooks onto the inside of the bag for easy access. Also allowing you to remove it for those on-the-go moments where all you really need is a few credit cards and some cash. I can even fit my iPhone 6 (w/ a protective case on) inside of it….just to give you an idea of how roomy it is.

 Plus it's really, really, really cute inside!! Hi, arrows...? Sign me up.


Are you ready for the best part??…. it's reversible!!! I know— I'm as smitten as you are! So not only does this bag do just about everything I could possibly need a bag to do but when I need to switch it up, I just flip it inside out and voila! A new bag! 

I love how many colors they have to choose from. I own the Tan/Indigo tote and I'm constantly getting compliments on my bags. If they ever bring back Taupe/Blush, I am on that like white on rice! The price is pretty unbeatable too, at only $68.00. This bag however, isn't sold through outside sources like Nordie's. (Which has a wide selection of Free People clothing, FYI) But you can purchase it online at FreePeople.com or locate a store. I visited the one in South Coast cuz I'm indecisive and wanted to see, in person, which one looked best. So I hope you've been good girls this year! Cuz this is a great gift from Santa ;) 

TGIFFFFFFFFF!
