| on trend....a passion for pineapple |

happy thursday!  i am totally dying over this whole pineapple trend.  I've got to admit i haven't been vibe'n with some of the graphics that have been thrown on some of my fav brands..ie: flamingos.  *fun fact* i am deathly afraid of flamingos and they gross me out more than anything.  anyway, PINEAPPLES!  gasp!  how cute and tropical is this trend?  my house currently smells like hawaii because of this yummy scentsy scent (what? it's discontinued?  i'm sure this bad boy smells just as yum).  this trend definitely gets me ready for summer.

Winter Whites

I'm so sick of hearing the whole "it's past Labor Day you shouldn't be wearing those white jeans" rant.  I love seeing whites worn in the winter and love a white pair of jeans post Labor Day / mid December worn with a cute pair of Frye or Hunter boots.

stocking

I must say, I look forward to stocking stuffers more than actual gifts.  It gives whomever is "stocking" it, the chance to show off their creativity and fun side.  Below, I put together some fun trinkets that would make any gal oh-so-jolly.

+ adorable glitter polishes

+ personalized stationary

+ a perfect coin purse

+ fashionable wrap bracelets

+ spectacles

+ why settle for one lipgloss?

all that sparkles

As I've mentioned before: I am a loyal Deborah Lippmann fan.  Her color "happy birthday" is definitely at the top of my fun out of the box polish list. But if you don't want to take the $18.00 plunge you really don't have to.  All the polishes below ranch from $2.80-$18.00!

fall trendiness for less

if you're like me, you want all the new trends right as they come out- even if you know in a few months / weeks / days you'll be over the pieces and move them to the back of your closet where you'll never seem to care about them for the rest of their existence.
SO here is it: fall trends for less... all these items I found + love come with a wonderful price tag--- nothing over $100.  Don't get me wrong, I always splurge on a few must haves for the season but they need to be classified as a classic piece... ya know, one that can be worn for a few seasons and really get it's "money's worth".
