Shopbop Friends & Family

I recently read an article that January is the best month to go shopping due to the deep discounts post the holiday craze as well as generally lower prices to lure in shoppers due to it being a slows sales month. I however find October to be the best month of deals and steals. Not only was this past weekend chock full of sales, but now Shopbop has launched their Friends & Family sale offering 25% off almost everything... I am having a major moment with black, red & white and created a little round up of some fashionable items at all different price points from the sale. Just enter code FAMILY25 at checkout for your stellar savings. Perfect time to start your holiday shopping!

Party In The Back-ing

There is a piece of jewelry having a major moment right now...the stud earring. The earring with a jacket backing is as decorative in the front as it is in the back is making some major trend waves in the fashion world. I first saw the pearl version on my lovely friend Kate and was curious about the new statement piece. It seems everywhere I turn today there is a new design of earring is making it's way on the fashion scene. Whether you covet the ear cuff, the single earring or my favorite the original statement there is a plethora of options available for your stylish cravings.

Friends & Family Galore!

It seems every time I open my inbox I see another amazing sale going on at my favorite retailers. They are too good not to share so I thought I would do just that! Let's start with Saks Fifth Avenue who is offering 25% off almost everything in the store {some designers are excluded}. It's the perfect opportunity to stock up on bigger ticket items that you have been waiting to go on sale. My addiction for black and white continues as I just snatched up this Theory blazer and top and cannot wait for it to arrive. This LBD is some serious perfection with a moto jacket and sexy pumps for wearing now and later with booties and velvet tights as the temps drop. 

Shopbop is always a favorite online shopping destination as they offer the best free speedy shipping and always the latest in fabulous fashion. I am seriously coveting some navy pumps for the days when I am feeling preppy. Comfy yet stylish flats for walking around my neighborhood. Destroyed denim has been one trend I am totally on board with this season and these AG leggings are the bomb.com. I love wearing mine with an oversized poncho and of course a statement necklace. 

that girl is not from NYC

Anyone remember the episode of Sex and The City revolving around the infamous hair accessory "the scrunchie". Well this past weekend while celebrating my cousins birthday at our favorite Shelter Island watering hole Sunset Beach, I spotted some very fashionable women wearing that exact item. After a bit of research I came across a few of these fabric covered hair ties that have made a possible comeback. So what do you think, is this look back or is it another trend just in rotation???

Lifes Little Emergencies

The other day I stopped in J.Crew to take advantage of their sale and picked up the two neon items below {are you sick of my neon obsession yet???}. The necklace had long been on my wish list and at an extra thirty percent off, how could I resist it? What was new to me was the cute little fluorescent pouch of mini emergency necessities that I could throw in my purse for any unexpected issues. They also make amazing gifts to your bridal party or as a favor at a bridal/baby shower or even a mama to be. Pinch Provisions is the company behind this genius idea and have come up with a plethora of these petite survival kits for every situation you could ever imagine. Started by a mother/daughter duo, their motto is "Emergencies suck. We're here to help", that pretty much sums up their awesomeness. I mean just check out all the details of the fabulous goodies you get in each pack below.
