Long Time, No Talk!

Hi everyone! 

My apologies for getting behind on the blog...I've had so much going on with the holidays! I hope you all had a very merry Christmas with your loved ones. I have been back and fourth between home and my grandparents house in Ohio; my family from Tennessee is in town until the new year :) So much fun to spend time with loved ones!

Now that Christmas is over, it's time to start thinking about that New Year's Eve dress! 

Here are a few of my favorites I have spotted recently:

Forever 21 Only $33!

I love the idea of this peplum like dress! Its only $25 from Forever 21 as well!

LOVE this BP dress from Nordstrom! $46

This XOXO Flapper dress from Macy's is adorable & is on sale for $62 (from $90!)

I saved the best for last--this is my favorite! Material Girl at Macy's Look at that cut out on the side! $54 on sale!

Happy dress hunting!

Night Time Craving:

Hi everyone! Sorry it's been a few days--doing some last minute shopping and running around, you all know how it is:)

Tonight I wanted to share something I came across last week when I was drooling over Free People's website:

You cannot tell me this Limited Edition beauty isn't to die for! Its embroidered and totally perfect for a Christmas or New Years Eve dress! Not to mention the back...!
