A WICKED trip into the city...

I had an amazing time this past weekend in New Jersey/NYC with my family. I got to catch up with my little cousins, celebrate my aunts bday, and go into the city to see Wicked. I was blown away it was an amazing play, my first time on Broadway, and I'm glad I got to share the experience with my fam!! The set was amazing, the actors were great, needless to say I was in aw by the time the show was over, Lion King is next on my list!! Here are a few pics I took while I was there, It was all about comfort for me so it was a perfect time to wear my Docs. I went to H&M a few days before the trip and found this little leopard dress which I'm in love with. The material on the dress is thick, it has a nice stretch to it, and the zipper in the back of the dress is well worth the twenty something bucks I paid for it! I paired it with my faux leather vest which I also bought at H&M, and of course black opaque tights which kept my legs warm while walking around the city..

Doing your Research....Dolce By Mojo Moxy Big Horn Lace-up Bootie

My latest buy.. I saw these booties while I was browsing on VictoriaSecret.com the other day, they were originally $75 dollars and they had them on sale for $59. I thought $59 was a pretty good price for these little booties, I wasn't familiar with the brand so I decided to google them by name and style and ran across a website called 6pm.com they had the same exact booties for $36.00 which was a complete steal so of course I got them. They arrived today I tried them on as soon as I got home and I love them...I can do so many different looks with these little booties. I'm glad I did my research because I saved $23 bucks plus the shipping was free at 6pm.com, I've since added this website to my favorites they have some great fall boots at great prices!!

NIGHTSTANDS are UP!

Ok, so of course I put my nightstands together the same day I got them, I just had to. Talk about excited I couldn't wait to see what they looked like in my room. Well the verdict is in and I love them, they go perfectly with my decor!! I wanted to do something a little different besides just putting lamps on my nightstands, so I went to HomeGoods blog and found some inspiration there. I've picked up little unique pieces for my nightstands for the past few days from GardenRidge and HomeGoods (love these stores)!! Here are a few pics of my nightstands while they were still bare, I will post pics of the finished product once I have all my nic nacs on them, which should be in the next week or so. I'm doing a little remodeling around my place and I must say I'm really getting into it! Interior design has always been a little passion of mine...

World Market

So, after driving past World Market for months now, and hearing about it briefly from others I decided to take a trip and see what all the hype was about...OMG I love this store, it's one of those places that has something for everyone, very unique little pieces, they have everything from wine to bedroom furniture. I was on a quest to bring some fun to my sectional sofa, so I added some throw pillows a while ago but still wasn't satisfied with the overall look. During my first trip to World Market I purchased two shiny silver throw pillows which were $12.99 each, yes this store is very affordable. My second visit I purchased a mustard colored velvet bolster pillow for $16.99, these really completed the look I was going for...Today finally after searching high and low I found some night stands that will go perfectly in my bedroom, I was looking for some non traditional nightstands in a sense, something a little different but not over the top. The ones I purchased today from World Market are perfect, they were on sale for $69.99 each, I had eyed them on a previous visit and after going in the store today decided to take them home with me...I will be putting them together tonight of course....more pics to come...
