My Closet Looks Lovely


I LOVE huggable hangers! They are amazing! I decided to go with the black (after a long debate between that and the ivory/cream color). I figured it was super neutral, classic and looks good with about anything in my closet! I purchased some of these hangers at Target and some others at The Container Store, which is fabulous! The benfit of getting some there is that you can find tons of coupon codes online and if you have a Discover card you get 5% back if you go through their site while shopping online. So all in all I received 20% back and another 5% on top of that. I also decided to pick-up my order at the store which saved me shipping costs :) Now my closet looks lovely! I still need to get a few more, but I will do that gradually since this has definitely been an investment rather than a small 20 dollar purchase. I figure I will have these for years to come and since clothes themselves are sooo expensive why not treat them well. I hope all of you try out these hangers, they have double my closet space and made it look amazing! I also picked up some of the clear shoe boxes from The Container Store too. Again, AMAZING I can see the shoes without having to get them down from my closet shelf, plus it makes everything looks so "professional. The best part is they are only around 1.50 apiece! So far it has been a productive weekend!

THE Huggable Hanger!



So, I have been coveting huggable hangers for a while now! I love how they instantly transform a closet! I currently have a massive amount of the plastic white hangers and I hate how my clothes are constantly slipping off and falling to the floor. My question for all of you lovely ladies out there is do they really work? Are they really worth the 1/per hanger price tag (unless on sale)? The four colors I like best are; ivory, black, grey and light pink. I like the neutral factor of the ivory and black (I'm really leaning towards black), but I wonder if the black will be too "harsh" looking? Please let me know if you use these hangers and if so what color is hanging in your closet :)

New Addition to the Family!

I'm so happy to announce that Hubby and I have a new addition to our family... Ms. Maddie! We adopted her earlier this week and she couldn't be any cuter! Though Stella seems less than thrilled that she now shares her home and attention with another dog... everything seems to be working out well :) Here are a few pictures of the little one!

She loves hiding/sleeping under our coffee table :)

Minted


What do you all think? Too "teeny-bopper," looking or cute? I love the pale minty color but don't want to look like I'm in middle/high school again :) Maybe it would be best on toes? I would love to hear your thoughts!

Converse?


How do you all feel about converse sneakers (the low version, chuck taylors). I never used to really care for them but now I think they are super cute! Thus, I ordered a grey pair today from finish line. I received free shipping and 10% while using my Discover card :) Honestly, what do you all think about them? I plan on wearing them with jeans and a simple white long/short sleeve tee for a cute casual look.... hmmm I guess I will see once I get them in the mail? Hope everyone is enjoying the AMAZING weather!

Blogging and Running

Ok, once again it has been monnnnhs sicce I blogged! I know, I know, I'm such a bad blogger but I felt as though I should get back into the "swing of things." I will start of this post with some super cute things I picked up at old navy recently. One if which is workout apparel! Gasp! I know... I'm not usually one to throw on a pair of shoes and go to the gym but I decided to start running again. I visited my sister last weekend and since she is an avid workerouter, we went running. Though I felt as thought I was most likely going to pass out through the entire experience it felt good to run and I felt so accomplished afterwords! In hopes of running almost daily now I treated myself to two new pairs of running shorts, a cute hot pink sports bra and a running top! Not all of which was from Old Navy but Marshall's too (who has amazing prices on workout gear)! I also picked up the sweater too because it was on super sale and was very comfy!
