Silly Shopper

So remember how I posted a list yesterday of the items that I want for fall?  Well thanks to my temp job I am right by the H&M in Herald Square!  So of course I decided to drop in during lunch and look what I found! Pleather sleeved jackets, cargo style anoraks, the cutest leather bag (which I might go back for) and some not so exciting infinity scarves.  I do have to give it up to H&M for the varied selection that they offer and the overall price.  However I personally hate having to dig through racks and stacks of clothing to not find my size.  I digress, what are you thoughts on the below items?

Im giving away $90 worth of FREE jewelry

Ok, its this simple guys.  Make a purchase at my boutique for $50 or more and be entered to win this set worth $92.  the contest runs until 7/31.  Want another entry contact me to host a pop up in person or online and score two entries into the raffle.

Guess whos selling jewelry???

So recently I signed up to become a Chloe+Isabel merchandiser.  What does this mean to you?  well as I always speak about how jewelry can make an outfit and is a great way to try trends, I can know offer you those great pieces.  I found out about the company via LinkedIn and decided to join.  Well wouldn't you know they selected me.  Turns out that they actually select who will offer and sell their collection.  The brand started right here in NYC!  Its been featured in various magazines (Glamour, Vogue, and Tech Crunch to name a few) and stores.  the items rang from classic to punk rock chic.  I cant wait to get my kit and start selling.  the jewelry is handcrafted and nickel free which is great for people with allergies, and there is a lifetime replacement guarantee. Once you sign up and agree to the terms they give you an online boutique for your customers as well as tools to help you succeed.  I've attached some photos for you guys to look at so click on the link below and check me out!

Understanding my addiction

Here's some photos of my one closet that I keep my accessories in.  I used a clear shoe holder for my bracelets and necklaces. The clear pouches make it easy to find items. I always speak of how accessories are fun easy ways to try trends and experiment.  My fave place is Barami for trendy and fun pieces.  However today i went into Laila Rowe and picked up a cute wallet.  Of course once I tire of something and it's still like new (or gasp! Never worn!) it will make it's way to my poshmark closet. So look me up bkblueagave

In time for Mothers Day

So as I'm sure you all know Mothers Day is quickly approaching and Bloomingdale's sent me a nice catalogue of items for Mothers Day.  However what really caught my eye were the sayings so I snapped a few photos of what I think is some good advice.  If you still haven't gotten anything they do have some great items, not to mention they are having a shoe sale!  What mother wouldn't want new shoes?  I've provided some links to sites that might help you with picking out a gift.

Need some cheap swag?

Looking for some trendy items to work into your wardrobe? Then check out Target. Not only do they do fashion collabs but even their in house items are pretty fab. Of course neon is one of the biggest trends and they have that covered with scarves, belts and even work out wear. Plus the accessories are fun and reasonably priced. They had a cute faux leather mossimo bag and look at the belt selection! So the next time your looking for a quick fix check out Target.

Lyst it!

Trending Ideas

In an effort to revitalize my wardrobe and support the economy I came across style.com trend alert for spring.  Images are from the site but I plan on using the ideas to "reinvent"myself and my wardrobe.  I feel that spring allows us to start over after the bulky drudgery of winter.  Its so hard to be fashionable and warm if you are located anywhere outside the southern hemisphere lol.  So here are some ideas to breath new life into your work wardrobe.  While I'm sure that some of these ideas may be a bit far fetched for boardrooms and staff meetings, use them as inspiration.  Personally I am ALLLLL about the suit on the right.  My color palette this year is black and white with the occasional pops of color.

Renovating an icon

So recently Macy's has taken to renovating their interior and expanding certain areas like shoes (be still me beating heart). On a recent shopping spree I had the chance to examine some floors and ride the wooden escalator. If you know anything about Macy's history you know that the wooden escalator has been there since the store was built. I managed to take some shots.
Enjoy!
