Sally and I had the pleasure of meeting one of Dallas’ most celebrated jewelry designers last weekend – Elizabeth Showers. A woman whose beauty outshines even her prettiest pieces, Elizabeth was so down-to-earth and her passion for her work and name-sake company was so transparent in how she spoke to us. A designer for more than 17 years, her designs are definitely a stand-out… “Effortlessly feminine and fresh, Elizabeth Showers’ jewels reflect the light and optimism of her own easy personality.” More than anything, Elizabeth strives to make women feel beautiful, not just look beautiful – a mission we of course stand behind!
If Elizabeth’s designs are new to you – take the time to discover her site and shop her amazing spring SALE! I’m a big fan of these pretty hoops (on sale for $135!), this ring, and these sparkly bangles… Hurry on over – stuff is selling out!
Guys, I have a real gift when it comes to finding some pretty great pieces on sale. I am not some crazy frugalista that scours the shelves at Wal Mart, but I do love to find something totally amazing that I had been wanting for awhile at a lower price. At stores like J.Crew and the Gap, it is pretty much guaranteed that if you like an item, it will be marked down in just a few weeks time. A little patience is all you need:) Mol and I tried on the above Kate Spadeplatforms in the store a few weeks ago and what do you know, now they’re on sale. It always seems to make making a purchase a little bit easier, right? I have also found some real gems on sale at Anthro over the years. And don’t even get me started on the sales that Calypso runs, its kind of a death trap for my bank account. But its all just just so good. I wouldn’t say that I necessarily use the fact that something is on sale to justify purchasing it, but more just that I wait for certain things I know that I want and love to go down in price. That is unless I claim that I can’t live another day without it!
Banana Republic: 40% off one full priced item and 30% off purchase with code BRSHOP30 – available TODAY ONLY
Calypso: Friends + Family 25% off (though 4/28) with code SPRFF13, and extra 50% off sale – love this
J.Crew: 25% off every purchase (through 4/28) with code SPRINGBEST - eyeing this
Loft: extra 50% off sale styles (valid through 5/5)
Ann Taylor: 50% off dresses & skirts (thought 4/25) with code GETCHIC, extra 40% off sale and 30% off full price purchase (limited time) with code SPRING
Yep – you heard it right, OTTE is having a Spring Fling sale and everything on their site is 20% off. The sale goes on from now until the 24th. In the words of Rachel Zoe, this is MAJ. It really couldn’t have come at a better time – Spring is here and I know that we aren’t the only ones dying to add a little oomph into our closets after months of what now feels like drab winter clothes. There are more than a few things that I have my eye on at OTTE, but this baby is at the tippy top of my wishlist. I am saving my pennies so I can make it mine sooner rather than later. Aside from that number one stunner in my mind, this pretty top is so versatile and perfectly girly. Right. Up. My. Alley. I also love the simplicity of this OTTE Signature dress. Molly already scooped up one of these and of course I am now wayy jelly. So much goodness all around over there on OTTE.
Also speaking of our sweet friends over at OTTE, we are guest pinning with them this week and next week so be sure to check out our board here!
