    Amazon Favorite Finds and Top Sellers

    I cannot believe that Amazon’s Prime Days Sale is just a few days away! The week of Prime Day is seriously one of my favorite times of the year. Not only does Amazon have a TON of incredible deals, many other retailers have jumped on the bandwagon and do their own versions of sales and promotion to try to capture some of the extra internet traffic that tends to spike during the Prime Day event. At this point, it basically feels like “Black Friday” in July and I am here for it! Since I am an avid Amazon shopper, I figured I would round up some of my current favorite…

    Delafield Hotel Mini Get Away

    If you are traveling to Southeastern Wisconsin and are looking for a place to stay during the holidays (or anytime, really!), my boyfriend and I recently had the chance to stay at Hotel Delafield and I wanted to share our experience. The hotel is tucked away behind a small business district in the quaint little Wisconsin town and is within walking distance of Downtown Delafield. It is a boutique hotel with a chic bar/restaurant nestled inside. We only stayed for one night, but we made the most of it! We were able to check out the bar and the restaurant and then retire for the night and relax in our…

    Massive Chicwish Haul: 2022 Honest Review

    Happy New Year! It has been quite a while since I have shared a blog post, so I figured there’s no time like a new year to get back to it! I have been sharing Chicwish clothes for a couple of years now and they reached out about doing a blog post reviewing some of their pieces and I couldn’t pass up the opportunity. I have rounded up some of my current Chicwish faves and shared what I loved (and some things that I didn’t love) about all of them. Chicwish has supported me since I first started blogging, and I have always been open and honest about my opinions…

    June 2021 Current Amazon Favorites

    Amazon Prime Days are back! The sale seems to have come around sooner than ever because last year’s event was pushed back to October due to the craziness that was 2020.  It is no secret that I am an avid Amazon shopper, so I thought it would only be fitting to share all of my current Amazon favorites ahead of Prime Days. I tried to narrow them down to my top ten, but I couldn’t quite get it down to only 10 items.  I got close though!! Here they are: Evera B Women’s V-Neck Chiffon Adjustable Spaghetti Strap Cami Top  I will start with this tank because it has been…

    Neutral Yet Festive Patriotic Outfit Inspiration

    Have you heard? The Olympics are this year! And lucky for us, we will have two consecutive years of Olympic games because the next Winter Olympics starts in February of 2022! As you probably already know, this isn’t typical. Normally there is a two-year gap between Olympic events, but because the Summer 2020 Olympics had to be postponed due to the Covid Pandemic, we get to enjoy Olympic events in consecutive years! In any typical year, even one without the Olympics, I enjoy putting together patriotic outfits for holidays like Memorial Day and Independence Day. Given that we have two Olympic events coming up within one year of each other,…

    Chicwish Vs Amazon Sweaters

    Even if you have been following along around here only a short amount of time, you have probably picked up on the fact that I share a lot of finds from both Amazon and Chicwish. There are benefits and drawbacks to shopping on both platforms, but I have recently noticed some VERY similar items on both retailer’s websites. That realization had me wondering which retailer offered the better option in terms of quality and price. I figured that if I had that question, there had to be others out there who have also wondered the same. So ordered two of the “same” items from each retailer and decided to compare…

    DIY Beaded Key Bracelet

    I have been DIY-ing and crafting a lot lately, so I thought that I would share one of my creations here. This DIY beaded key bracelet is super simple to make and I think that it looks adorable! You could make one for yourself or it would also make a really sweet and personalized gift. Joann’s, Micheal’s, and Hobby Lobby are my go-to stores for supplies. You can order supplies online from all three of them, but sometimes it is easier to take a trip to the store so that you can get a better idea of how colors and textures of different types of beads will look together. I…

    Christmas Outfit Ideas with Chicwish

    Well, suffice to say, 2020 has not gone how anybody expected it to.  This year has thrown a wrench in all of our plans and in some cases it has been a little difficult to cope. You may or may not be planning on seeing family this holiday season. Even if you’re staying home, maybe getting dressed up a bit might be just the pick-me-up you need. It’s not a large gesture, but I find that getting dressed up and doing my hair and makeup tends to increase my mood whether I have somewhere to go or not. With all that said, I thought that it would be fun to…
