Nike’s, Nike’s, and more NIKE’S

September 16, 2016

As you all know, I have quite the sneaker addiction, but I’m pretty particular when buying a pair of sneaks.  I even like to stay to a specific make and style-mainly Nike Stefan Janoksi’s.  I’ve mentioned my love for Janoski’s a few times in posts, but my collection is quite extensive.

Of course Nike’s can be pricey and Stefan Janoksi’s are no different.   Luckily, almost every pair I own has been purchased on sale!  And recently I have gotten so lucky at finding an abundance of these shoes for dirt cheap prices at random stores and websites!  So, for all you other Nike lovers out there I wanted to share with you my recent finds and places to check for great deals.

First up is Marshalls!

Most Nike Stefan Janoksi’s are unisex, but are typically placed in the men’s shoe section so I always make sure to check it out.  I wear a woman’s 8.5 so that makes me a size 7 in men’s.  So whatever your size is in women’s shoes, just go down 1.5 sizes and that is your shoe size in men’s!  I luckily found these Stefan Janoski’s for just $20 at Marshalls on clearance.  They are black with a mint green raised pattern!

One of the reasons these are my favorite shoes, is because they are a sneaker shaped like a shoe.  They’re not bulky or too athletic looking, which makes them perfect for sneakerheads like me haha.

My newest pair is from Ross.  I found them for $34 not on sale.  I knew I had to scoop them up for that price!

The smudged polka dots really made these stand out, and I liked how the colors were fairly neutral being they are black, white, and cream.

The next two pairs I’m about to share with you all are both ordered online from Skatepark of Tampa.  Both pairs were on sale for $25 each! I just randomly searched on their one day found them on sale, and $25 is an absolute steal for these mid-top Janoski’s.

  These maroon mid-rise Janoski’s are my favorite!  I love that they have a gum sole and of course maroon is my fav color!

img_1476

These camel colored suede mid-rise are so perfect that I can’t wait to wear them for Fall.  The navy blue check and laces really pop on this color, and the checkered flannel pattern on the inside is just too cute!

Although my collection is much more extensive, these are the pairs that I recently purchased over the last few weeks for such affordable prices!!!

Stores like Marshall and Ross (I constantly find pairs there) are great places to find these shoes at a discounted price.  However online sites like, Skatepark of Tampa, Tactics, and even Nike are great places to frequent when looking for a specific shoe.  Even Ebay will sometimes have lower prices, it’s always smart to check multiple places.  Sometimes you just get lucky!

Share with us some of your fav kicks and why you can’t get enough of them!

What’s in our cart {FALL} transition addition

September 13, 2016

While stores are beginning to fill their racks with sweaters, scarves, and coats it can be hard to imagine wearing these pieces anytime soon. It’s that odd transitional period where I don’t know if I should buy more warm weather clothing to wear now or stick to scooping up more Fall staples.

Browsing SheIn I found so many great pieces that I can wear now & later! And because their pieces are so affordable I can grab a bunch of items to style the end of Summer anddd throughout the Fall season.

BTW Nothing is over $35!! They are also offering FREE worldwide shipping today {yay!!}

Currently in our cart:

W-E-E-K-E-N-D (wear)

September 8, 2016

Who doesn’t love getting ready on the weekend?! I mean you know you’re getting ready to go out get dinner, drinks, etc. and NOT go to work haha.

Soooo, when it’s the weekend, Kat and I wanted to show you all what we like to wear.  Kat styled her outfit with her taste in mind and my inner self shows in my outfit too.

DSC_0622

Kat loves the dresses because they’re so comfy and can be dressed up or down!  She chose this lovely patterned and colored dress from boohoo!

DSC_0618

Her white earrings go lovely with the blue and orange color in the dress.  And of course who could forget about the other accessories!

DSC_0606

With Fall right around the corner, the colors in her dress and her grey suede heels with that fringe detail are absolute perfection.

This outfit isn’t too dressy that you would feel out place, but it’s simplicity and comfort make it perfect for those weekend escapades.

DSC_0611

As expensive and fancy as these shoes look, Kat found them from none other than Charlotte Russe!  This color is just absolutely perfect all while being neutral!  Unfortunately, Kat’s style of shoe is sold out so I linked a similar style HERE.

DSC_0591

 My style doesn’t really incorporate many dresses into it haha, but even though I like to wear outfits that are comfy, I still try to make sure they can be dressed up if need be!

For this dinner outfit, I chose my new favorite jogger pants from TJMaxx and a plain white tee.  I linked a similar pair of khaki joggers for only $20 HERE

DSC_0595

This khaki jogger pant was on clearance for $12 and they are the comfiest clothing item (besides a hoodie haha) that I own!

DSC_0605

Adding just a basic white tee from Marshalls kept the outfit looking clean and neutral while not being to casual for a night out!  I linked a similar white tee-shirt HERE.

DSC_0592

I added the heels as the final boost taking my ensemble one level up.  Kat actually bought these gorgeous coffee, cognac colored heels from Asos.  They are very comfy and not too high!  I linked a very similar style/color HERE

We’d love to see some of your favorite weekend styles! Feel free to check out our Instagram pages or comment on the blog!

Dreaming of {FALL}

August 26, 2016

Currently dreaming of Fall fashion while sweltering in this 100 degree heat over here. Now just because it is as hot as you know what, doesn’t mean we can’t stock up on some awesome pieces for Fall!

The Nordstrom sale came and flew by with amazing Fall pieces to buy now/wear later and a lot of other stores are also putting cold weather appropriate pieces on sale right now.

We scooped up two gorgeous outerwear pieces that we can’t wait to style once the temps drop! We’re showing you how we’ll transition them from Summer to Fall with a few simple changeups.

Now is the time to score some cold-weather clothing before prices rise and pieces sell out!

Sales, Sales, Sales!

August 17, 2016

We’re coming to that time of the year when Fall Fashion is slowly creeping into our lives. While the weather is still warm hot, I know I’m beginning to dream of boots, jackets, and sweaters.

This is also the time of year where sales are constant. Brands are beginning to put their Summer staples on sale to make room for the Fall and Winter pieces. Living in Florida definitely allows us to wear our Summer wardrobes for quite a bit longer so I love to shop these sales. You can find great transitional pieces that don’t break the bank!

We went through some of our current favorite sales and linked some great pieces for you to browse!

Tie-dye & Tassels

August 11, 2016

For our Summer style countdown, of course we had to style some of our fav summer tops featuring tie-dye and tassels!  We were fortunate enough to receive some amazingggg and beautiful tops that we picked out from Romwe.

This site is absolutely fabulous because not only do they have sooo many trendy clothing options, but they’re super AFFORDABLE!

IMG_1099

Kat chose this lovely blouse that had some eye catching details and colors! Better yet it is under $20!!

IMG_3937

What really made her fall in love with this top are the blue and black tassels and of course the bell sleeves!!

With fringe and tassels being so popular in summer she couldn’t resist! And of course pairing it with our JORD watch was essential.

IMG_6753

DSC_0447

If you know Kat, you know she’s obsessed with heels so of course she had to pair the tassels on her top with some stunning black tassel heels she bought from Forever21.

DSC_0402

I’ve been loving that tie-dye life lately especially for summer.  However, I’m picky when it comes to certain styles like the ones that are super bright that you see families wear are just not my thing haha.  I was so happy when I found this lightly faded colored tie-dye on Romwe.

DSC_0406

The material is actually totally different than I expected which was an awesome surprise.  Instead of it being a cotton tee, it was super silky so I could def see myself dressing it up!

DSC_0392

I dressed down the top for this post and paired it with my one and only gorgeous Kate Spade backpack and white Nike Stefan Janoski’s.

DSC_0398

The shades of colors used in this top aren’t your typical greens, yellows, and pinks which made it even more desirable.  The softer shades of pink, purple, and blue make it much classier and look super expensive.

Both Kat’s tassel top and my tie-dye are courtesy of Romwe, but all opinions are our own.  We definitely recommend that you check this site out, guaranteed you’ll find something and it won’t break the bank!

Blues + Distressed Denim

August 7, 2016

We love wearing blue. It is always such a flattering shade no matter what the season!

DSC_0408

DSC_0416

I love this top! It is under $22 and the embroidery detail is so beautiful.

I’m wearing it as a tunic top, but if you are shorter than me {I’m 5′ 6″} you could definitely get away with it as a dress!

The Current [5] Favorites [3rd] Edition

July 26, 2016

Now that July is beginning to come to a close [insane btw!!] we wanted to share with you some of the items we’ve been currently loving!

[ T E E ]

1. Bubba Keg

Screen Shot 2016-07-25 at 6.08.08 PM

I know everyone’s new obsession are the YETI tumblers etc. butttttt I have always been a proud supporter of the brand Bubba Keg.  It is just as nice and keeps my drink super cold with ice for like 18 hours which is insane!  My favorite part about it is that they’re a FRACTION of the price of YETI cups.  You can find them for amazing deals at Marshalls and TjMaxx.  Both the stainless water bottle and the mini keg were each only $12.99!!  Check out those stores before you buy online!

2. One-piece Swimsuit

Screen Shot 2016-07-25 at 6.17.56 PM

Kat and I recently ordered bathing suits from Boohoo during their sale, and I am in loveeeeee with my new one-piece.  It fits amazing, is sporty and comfortable, and was only $12! If you’re looking for a swimsuit one-piece or bikini this place has so many options and they’re all gorgeous and AFFORDABLE!

3. Ross

Ross has always been one of my go-to stores mainly for shoes, but lately I’ve just been running in there scope out the scene and see if they have anything good and boy did they!  I found so many amazing deals from Stefan Janoski’s for $34.99 to a white Dri-fit Nike hat for $10!  The men’s section in particular has been stocked full of amazing items (just in case you’re looking for your dad or significant other)  I def recommend you stopping in!

4. Delirium Tremens

delirium_tremens_2__11098_orig

 With summer being as stifling hot as it has been, there’s nothing like a nice cold refreshing beer to cool you off!  My tastes for beer has changed and recently my go-to is Delirium Tremens or DT as people call it.  It’s a very strong beer alcohol percentage wise, but it’s not heavy in my opinion.  The only negative is that since the alcohol content is high, the beer tends to be a bit pricier and you can’t buy it at every grocery store.  ABC Fine Wine and Liquor has it to purchase and the bar called Brass Tap has it on draft!  If you like beer like me, this is def worth a try!

5. Tie Dye

Screen Shot 2016-07-25 at 7.05.04 PM

I’m not really talking about the traditional tie dye rainbow colors that you see people wearing haha, but I love the faded, washed out tie dye tee’s and shoes like with pinks, white, blue, green, purple or any color.  I think it looks so cool when the shoe or shirt focuses on one color and fades it out turning it into tie dye pattern!


[ K A T ]

1. Graphic T’s

Screen Shot 2016-07-25 at 8.17.28 PMScreen Shot 2016-07-25 at 8.23.33 PMScreen Shot 2016-07-25 at 8.23.44 PM

Lately with these super hot Summer temps, I’ve been getting a little lackadaisical [definitely had to google the correct spelling of that word haha] with my wardrobe. It’s just so hot that I’m reverting to shorts and t’s most days. Luckily for me graphic t’s could not be cuter these days! Some of my favorites have been from Forever 21 and Windsor because they’re super affordable but still on trend.

2. Summer cocktails

Normally I’m a champs and wine drinker. Whether I’m out or home those are definitely my beverages of choice. But lately I’ve been experimenting with some fun cocktails at home and have been loving what I’ve been concocting! Moscow mules have been my absolute go-to this Summer. Just so refreshing and light. But the other day I tried this margarita recipe and I’m in love! It is definitely my new favorite and so simple to make.

3. Jord Wood Watch

I have been sporting this watch with eevverything this Summer. I just feel like it is so Summery! Tee and I paired it with casual and dressy looks here! It would definitely make an awesome gift for that watch lover in your life [or just for yourself!].

4. NJ Housewives

Screen Shot 2016-07-25 at 4.50.14 PM

Yes my name is Kathryn and I’m a housewives addict. In all its table flipping glory [season 1 what’s uppp!] NJ Housewives is back, Teresa’s out of prison, and seems like she’s ready to jump right back into the drama. If you’re a Bravo addict like me I’d love to hear your take on the season so far!

5. Aveeno 24 hour moisturizing lotion

Screen Shot 2016-07-25 at 4.47.22 PM

Being at the beach and pool this Summer I wanted to make sure my skin was staying moisturized so I tried an old favorite again and fell back in love. I have no idea why I ever stopped using this guy! I legitimately feel like this lotion moisturizes my skin for 24 hours. And it really has helped prolong any tan I have gotten! Definitely not going to let him go this time around.


Let us know your current favorites! We’d love to hear about what you’ve been loving so far this Summer!

Back to BASICS [black & denim]

July 21, 2016

There are so many fun trends to try during Summer that sometimes you neglect the basic pieces in your closet. Off the shoulder, embroidery, pom-poms, and tassels are so much fun to wear that you might ignore those plain solid colors.

So for a fun night out look we put together two simple, classic ensembs that could even transition into some cooler {a girl can dream!} weather.

But not without a few details! Lace-up tops and polka dots take your basic black and white blouses up a notch.

ZARA sale PICKS

July 12, 2016

We loveee Zara. They always offer trendy pieces that are still affordable, so when their sale comes around it’s an added bonus.

Tee and I each chose our top sale picks online right now.

But one thing about this sale is you have to move fast! Zara’s sale items normally sell out quickly because of how discounted the items are!
