#NSALE PICKS ARE HERE!

The Nordstrom Annual Sale kicks off tomorrow (FriYAY for real!) a.m. for the general public, and believe me when I tell you, this is better than Christmas, your birthday and your graduation all mixed in one. I have been pre-saling so hard, because ya know, I'm a cardholder. Just like Carrie Bradshaw taught us, I like my money right where I can see it..hanging in my closet. Shop my top picks below. Each picture is clickable and lists the SALE price underneath!

I seriously live in these AG jeans and they are almost $100 off. Cannot beat it. Two more items I decided I couldn't live without today were this jacket and this cardigan. I truly need to be stopped. How many items will be sacrificed before I am done shopping the Nordstrom sale? The limit does not exist.

WET HAIR, DON'T CARE.

If you are a GILTY reader, you know I am a lake girl through and through. Don't get me wrong, I love the beach, but there is just something about the feeling I get at the lake that I just can't get at the beach when I am sticky, covered in sand, and dodging idiot seagulls...WOOF. Have I mentioned how much I hate birds? Rats with wings.

This past weekend I tagged along with Elisabeth (per usual) to her grandparent's house on Weiss Lake in Alabama. I never turn down a lake weekend and I never turn down an Elisabeth. I also just never really turn down. Ohhh! You guys saw that coming. I digress. Anyway, it was absolutely beautiful, the weather was perfect, and her grandparents were not only the sweetest and most accommodating, but they also had THE COOLEST FLOAT OF ALL TIME. It was basically a giant floating yoga mat...I tried that though, and as it turns out, I am not skilled in the aquatic-yoga department. I'll stick to horizontal tanning. You'll die over the price of this suit.

PANAMA HAT / SUNGLASSES (these are only $20!) / COLOR BLOCK BIKINI / PALM PANTS: Victoria's Secret, similar here, here and here / RING / ARROW NECKLACE

Are you guys dying over the price tag on that sherbert flavored 'kini?! I KNOW. Buyer's tip: Zaful runs a little on the small side. I am wearing a medium in this suit.

Don't forget to use my code 'giltyaschargedxoxo'  for a *FREE MONTH* of Rocksbox jewels! I got this ring in my last box and loved it so much I kept it. Funny how often that happens...




MONDAY MUSINGS & FITTING ROOM FILES.

Mondayyy. The bitch is back. I'm ignoring all responsibilities and focusing mainly on the Tory Burch private sale, which kicked off today! That woman, she just gets it. Tons of sandals for under a hundred dollars. That is all.

AIMEE FLAT / PRINTED REVA / LEIGHANNE SANDAL / ROBINSON SATCHEL 

Second item of business. Shopping lately. I was in Zara yesterday in a hungover haze, and found this sleeveless trench that I must adopt. Side of duckface sold separately.

ZARA SLEEVELESS TRENCH (not online, similar here) / (I made the tank myself! A little white H&M tank + fabric paint DIY) / DENIM / FLATS (INC at Macy's, old. Similar herehere and here)

What a high quality photo. Only the best for you, my Gilties. Listen, I would love to stay and chat, but there is a new episode of Intervention that is not going to watch itself.




HALF-YEARLY, I LOVE YOU DEARLY.

It's the happ-happiest season of all---Nordstrom's half-yearly sale is here! Save up to 40% off of your faves from now until May 31st. Yes, just all of the yes. I made you a casual click-to-shop collage of the things I am lurving below. It's basically like me making you a mixtape. I'm saying that I love you. Buy me all the things.

Hope everyone has an amazing long weekend! #MDW2015

KEEPIN' IT ONE HUNNID.

You are about to be a part of history in the making. This...right now…is my 100th post! I seriously can't even believe it. This baby blog has been such a dream of mine for so long, so I really cannot thank YOU enough for following along!

In true milestone spirit, I plan to celebrate with a little gift to moi from moi & I don't think it's any coincidence that Shopbop is having their biggest sale of the year at this very moment. These are all in the running. Click each image to shop!
AND..It wouldn't be a true #TBT without throwing it back to my very first post…

GLOBES NIGHT IN.

Happy Golden Globes night, Gilties! I don't know about you, but I have been flitting around my apartment in a ball gown all afternoon. By ball gown I mean sweatpants and by flitting around I mean stationary on my couch, but I did manage to go to the gym, do 4 loads of laundry AND handwash several things I have been putting off for weeks. I hateee handwashing clothes, mainly because I don't have a big enough sink for it and then end up with nowhere to hang them all to dry. I am really just rambling at this point, but wanted to share the latest piece of my arm party with you guys.

This bracelet by Emprint Stamping is especially near and dear to my heart because it is personalized with my little fur baby's moniker. Squeal!

The best part about ordering from Emprint is that you can completely customize their bar necklaces and bracelets to say anything that you want from words to monograms. I also got the matching "Jessica" necklace in gold emblazoned with my Dad's initials.

I snagged that jewelry box for myself for Christmas just as our C.Wonder store was closing (tear!), but you can still get them on super sale here! Just finished my post-work-out, pre-red-wine, pre-golden globes green drink, so I'm off to fill my real glass.

GIFT GUIDE PART 3: STOCKING.

The stocking is here to prove that good things DO come in small packages. Sometimes this is the hardest part of my shopping, I swear! My dad LOVED Christmas more than anyone ever, and he absolutely passed that love down to me. Instead of just opting for filler, I make sure every stocking stuffer is well-thought out and meaningful. Have I mentioned that I am a total shopping obsessed lunatic? About 394 times? Oh, perfect. Moving on..
stocking stuffers
1. ON/OFF MUG 2. EPISLIM 3. ROLL-UP FLATS 4. MATCHES 5. RING 6. TRAVEL BAGS
7. KATE SPADE GLOVES 8. CHEERS CANDLE
9. BOWTIE 10. TOM FORD SOAP 11. BEARD LUBE 12. SHAVE BRUSH 13. CUFFLINKS
14. FLASK 15. WHISKEY STONES 16. J.CREW GLOVES
As always, click each link above to shop!

See what I mean?? The stocking is SO much fun. I love mixing cheapies like that cute little sweater-clad flask from Nordstrom (literally less than $10!!) with higher end finds like those timeless Kate Spade gloves (that are also smartphone friendly!). Even Kate knows some of the hottest texting happens in colder weather, am I right? Amen. Also super important..useful hair-removing gifts like the fuss-free Epislim, as well as that old school little men's shaving brush I found at Target for just $19. Let's all vow to remain fuzz-free until warmer months. It's just nicer that way.

Shop, click, add to your little cart & use code FAMILY25 to get your 25% off! Here is my "under $300" wish list. Can I just have it?

HIDDEN GEM(S).

Finding a good tailor can be just as important as finding your soulmate. Maybe more so, because your soulmate may not even notice you if you are drowning in an ill-fitting ensemble. Bethenny Frankel has even joked that she would "tailor her underwear" if she could. Preach, girlfriend. After a lot of Yelp-ing, I finally took a dress that I am wearing to a wedding in two weeks to get altered (as it has been riding around in my backseat for two weeks) at Q Tailors in Phipps Plaza. Naturally, that led to me shopping for earrings.

Enter Lavalier. Who knew there were hidden gems like this upstairs!? Have you other ATL-iens been inside of this place? If not, go now. Finish reading this later. First and foremost, they are a local boutique that only gets a few of each item, so you are not going to see the same thing you bought all around the A. Also, they are offering 50% off the entire store with an extra 20% off of that. Like, WHAT? That is basically free jewelry. On top of that ridiculous sale, they have some amazing, brightly colored jewels that rival that of my beloved J.Crew. NEED I SAY MORE?
Adopted these two sets of twins tonight.

I'll be wearing these with my PJs for the rest of the night.

COME SALE AWAY.

If I had my way, my entire home would be styled in ZGALLERIE. It's actually well on it's way to being just that, and I only have 700 usable square feet. The struggle is real. This lust-worthy store has caused many a manic shopping encounter for me personally, and I feel like it's only right to share the wealth with you.

ZGALLERIE is having a mayj sale for the 4th and these are my wish list picks. You only have until Monday to snag these deals, so don't let the fireworks blind you. What is more Patriotic than a mirrored side table on which to rest your apple pie à la mode? Nothing, that's what.
