lulu*s white hot american summer

 

when lulu*s asked me to promote their white hot american summer sale for memorial day, you know i was all over that.

memorial day is one of my favorite holidays. why?
because it basically marks the start of summer here in texas.
people are gathered at picnics, at the lake, playing outside, strolling the sidewalks eating sno cones, bbqing in the backyard, water skiing and tubing, lunching outside.
you name it.
it’s an iconic american holiday.

in honor of memorial day, the lovely people of lulu*s are hosting a “white hot american summer” sale on may 23rd, in which there will be a discount off their on-sale merchandise.

so ladies. {and gentlemen shopping for your ladies}
if that isn’t enough, i’ll just make it a little sweeter and throw a yummy cherry on top.
signeroo readers will receive VIP access today, before the day of the sale,
by using the code: VIPMemorial

{expires midnight tonight, may 22nd}

you lucky little things, you.
now get to shopping and take note of the white on white trend and bbq, picnic or lake-day it in style!

bon voyage! {and a Blowfish Shoes giveaway winner!}

when y’all read this, i will be in london, dreaming of the warm texas weather.
i’m kidding, i’m kidding.
i wish i could say that i’m a cheery person when it’s cold and rainy {even if i’m oohing and aahing over ancient roman cities or london fish and chips} but…i’m not!
i can’t believe chad and i are finally embarking on this grandiose adventure.
as i sit here in the hotel room awaiting tomorrows departure overseas, i’m kicking myself over forgetting to upload ALL of the outfit photos i took to post while i am away.

shaking my head. 

oh well. i have a few fun guest bloggers {including one fun giveaway!}, maybe an outfit post or two up my sleeve, and a very exciting memorial day surprise.

now onto the blowfish shoes giveaway winner from last week! congratulations holly! i will email you for more details!!

okay, folks. stay tuned.
i promise fun things will be happening around here while i’m gone.
i will note that i have been slow to answer emails, and will be even slower over the next few weeks as we will have spotty internet service. but i will get around to them, i promise!

and really, i just want to enjoy a european vacation with my ginger love.

bon voyage!

xoxo

a blowfish shoes giveaway!

there are few things greater than a pair of comfortable shoes.
but a pair of comfortable shoes that are swoon worthy and desirable?
be still my heart.

blowfish is a new sponsor this month, and one i am incredibly excited about!!
i have been a lover of their shoes for quite some time, so this is just a thrill.

now let’s just take a moment to talk about the amazing “caroline” sandal. first, I love a little wedge on a sandal. just a little extra added height, ya know? so frankly, I was sold right there. I thought, “these will be the perfect shoes to pair with shorts & dresses in Europe!”
and then I put them on.
and it was like walking on clouds.
ok, i’m exaggerating a little. but I was so surprised how comfortable these little ladies are!

and here’s where it gets fun.
the beautiful people at blowfish shoes are doing a signeroo giveaway in which the reader will have the choice of winning any pair of blowfish shoes.
that’s right.
any pair your little heart desires!

{clutching} spring temperatures

three days and we will be leaving for colorado to see my baby brother graduate college.
which makes me feel so very old.
and then it’s off to europe for two weeks on sunday.
you could say that things are a little hectic around here.
not as hectic as what’s going on inside my brain, however.
is it possible to be thinking of a million things at once?
yes, yes it is.
good thing us women are great multi-taskers, no?

my mom is actually borrowing this dress from me this weekend for the graduation ceremony, so i hung it up on my closet door as a reminder to bring it to colorado with me.
and of course i was running late this morning…..so it is now on my body.
whoops.
 it was a top knot, grab a dress, grab a cute clutch, get my tail out the door kind of morning. usually i have a few outfits strewn across my bed waiting to be picked up after i get home from work. this little outfit, however, had to be a one hit wonder. no second chances for me today. snooze buttons should be illegal. 

oh, mondays.

on a much more exciting note, i will have a super fun blowfish shoes giveaway up on the blog tomorrow! you don’t want to miss it! so be sure to make your tuesday a little brighter, and stop by.
